BAD BAD BAD

Worst attorney ever!!!! Do not hire him. Waste of time and money. He RUINED my divorce. He is cheap for a reason

Excellent Attorney

Professional, great communicator, and listener, extremely punctual, trustworthy, and very experienced. Has been our family attorney since 2005. He's always been available for all of our legal needs. Also very reasonably priced.

Horrible

This guy talks a good game, at first, I hired him to form my LLC, he was sloppy, unorganized and never completed the process by changing my deeds to the LLC. He doesn't return phone calls, he doesn't complete necessary and vital processes. He makes promises he cannot keep. I had to rehire him to sue ...one of my tenants he never filed the paperwork as processed, and was overall a horrible lawyer. DO NOT HIRE THIS MAN!

We hired this bogus attorney for a child custody battle. He never returns phone calls or follows through with a case.

We hired this bogus attorney for a child custody battle. He never returns phone calls or follows through with a case. Extremely disappointed especially since he sounded so sincere initially. Would never recommend.

I should have never hired scott garver

I hired scott garver to handle a child custody case. He didn't do anything for me. We would go to court and he would just sit there and not even defend me. he had me sign things that I didn't fully understand and I got royaly screwed in the end.He really had no interest in helping me and it showed. N...ow that I look back, I wonder if he had been paid my the opposing party.
