About Scott
Biography
Scott has a reputation in the legal community as a scholar who thrives on a deep study of legal nuance, history and philosophy, but he is actually one of those people with way too many side interests. He is well known by others as a professional storyteller who thrills audiences with well over a hundred tales covering everything from history pieces to ghost stories, myths, legends, literary works, story poems, and original pieces; as a restaurant quality chef; as an avid and knowledgeable fisherman and forager in the local woods who created the invaluable Bolete Filter website; as a published author; and even as the man who maintains the annual NFL draft "big board" for the largest Steelers blog on the Web. And then, of course, there's the wife and daughters. "That's the important part," he says.

Wonderful attorney
Mr. Pavelle provided me with honest, direct, and helpful advice regarding a rental dispute. He was extremely timely and efficient in providing me with the details. He offered an optimistic but realistic goal for my case. Would highly recommend to all.
