Best Attorney In Pittsburgh

I have been using Scott Lautner as my Attorney for over 14 years,specifically for Divorce,Custody, and Child Supprt matters. He is experienced, professional, knowledgeable,and honest. He is always available to answer questions. I also appreciate that he offers appointments on Saturdays. I recommend h...im to anyone looking to hire an attorney.

Bad Choice

I hired Scott for my divorce. My ex was removed on a PFA, because of dragging his feet and bleeding me financially, I am still going through hell. Divorce should have been filed in 2011 when I retained him. But dragged it out until the end of 2012. I am still not divorced because I am trying to undo ...many of the things he should have taken care of, 3500.00 paid and nothing to show for it. Never returns calls and tells you what you want to hear just to get by. When his retainer runs out, you will see the true attorney. Highly DON'T recommend.

worst person / money grubbing

My now ex husband hired him to represent him in a 1st offense minor dug arrest. he postponed for many months until her got paid all his fees then told this permanent resident w children in this country to take a plea deal. he told this good man and great father that if he plead guilty he would ...get ARD /boot camp. Once he plead guilty he was sent to prison and deported because this [ i use this word loosely] lawyer told him it would be fine and he would b out in few months to boot camp. He never responded to my calls since i have power of attorney now and my daughter lost her father to deportation because this man said he should take the deal. this wonderful,hard working,loving father will never see his children again thanks to this lawyer.

Knowledgeable

Scott is a great attorney. If you want a pit-bull in your corner he is the one to have. He does not sugar coat this not only with you but with his opponents. If you want a no nonsense straight to the point style attorney, use him! He is an amazing attorney and I have faith in him to be successful i...n any case. He will also be honest and tell you whether or not you even have a case. He will not drag you on, take your money only to lose. He DOES NOT like to lose so he will be the best that he can.

Avoid

Very poor business. Phone calls never returned, no work on my case in a few months and I had to fire him as a result. Other, more knowledgeable attorneys in area are much cheaper, too. Incompetant, unethical, unprofessional staff (girlfriends?), among many others. Avoid unless you want trouble.
