Professional, Aggressive, and Experienced in Court
Scott helped me resolve a dispute last year. I own and operate a hair salon in NJ but I was sued in a NY Court by the company that handled my credit card processing. That company committed fraud and was being investigated by the Attorney General.My business has no connection to NY. Scott researched...
Thanks so much for the review! This case involved challenging issues of contract law, fraud, and jurisdiction. I was very happy with this result also. Being ready and able to battle in court is what it takes to negotiate the best settlement. Scott

He knew exactly how to handle the situation and helped us avoid a lawsuit. Since the owner clearly had no l...
I'm so glad this worked out. I always try to help my clients avoid the time and expense of litigation. It's not always the best option to fight in court but it helps when the other side knows you can.

Smooth chapter 13 experience
Scott is extremely knowledgable and to the point. He knew how to deal with the trustee to ensure our proceeding went smooth. Scott also recommended that we wait for the homestead exception to increase in NYS before filing. This was a great idea because it saved us a a lot of money money and made our...
Thanks so much for your nice review. I really appreciate it so that others will know that they can trust me to solve their legal problems. In this case, what made the difference was the knowledge that New York State was considering increasing the homestead exemption and waiting for that to happen a few years ago. Once that occurred, my client's Chapter 13 payment plan became feasible because the higher exemption reduced the percentage he was required to pay his unsecured creditors. We used the law to our advantage here!
