I had a wonderful experience working with Scott Carlson.

I had a wonderful experience working with Scott Carlson, or as I know him, Scott. From day one he knew exactly the in's and the out's of everything that pertained to my case. I was thoroughly impressed with the knowledge he had of law and he was very professional. My case went on for a long time, not... due to Scott, but due to the insurance company he was dealing with. Even though sometimes it felt like I would never get any resolution, Scott always made me feel assured, like he knew just what to do. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the hard work that went into my case. I was more than happy with the outcome of everything. I couldn't have done it without an experienced and skilled lawyer on my side. I was time and time again amazed at how well he knew the "tricks" the insurance company were trying to do. When it comes to an injury that isn't your fault, it can seem like a helpless situation regarding the insurance companies. Scott has the experience and knowledge to know exactly what to do when under pressure. I highly, highly reccomend working with Scott. He is not only very professional but very personable and friendly. I feel like he genuinely cared about helping me.

Exceptional Lawyer!

Scott takes the time to explain how the legal system looks at a case and the potential outcomes. He makes sure you have a full understanding of how the process works so you can make an informed decision. Scott's honesty, passion and ability to fight for his clients truly set him apart. I would not h...esitate to send my friends or family to Scott and his team.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
