Beware

I made the mistake of retaining D Scott Lautner to represent me in a federal employment discrimination case. I paid him a $1500.00 retainer. This Attorney did nothing for me in my case, just " Lip Service". When I complained to him about not doing anything, he quit my case. However, he kept, or... in my opinion "stole" my retainer. He never even attempted to give a portion of it back. He literally took the money and ran. He is one of the worst Attorneys I have ever had contact with. This is solely based on my experience with D Scott Lautner and strictly just my opinion. Before you hire this Attorney, I suggest you do your due diligence and research before you make the same mistake I did.

Expert Guidance and Reassurance During a Stressful Time

I highly recommend D. Scott Lautner, Esq. for anyone seeking top-tier legal representation. He guided me through a criminal case based on completely fabricated allegations, and his unwavering support and professionalism made all the difference. From the outset, he was readily available for meetings, ...consistently responsive to my communications, and offered sound counsel that provided immense reassurance during a highly stressful and uncertain time. His expertise and calm demeanor helped me navigate the process with confidence, and ultimately, he secured a favorable outcome for my case. I wholeheartedly endorse his services for anyone in need of a skilled, knowledgeable, reliable, and supportive attorney.

Highly recommended

I couldn’t have come across a better Attorney for my Family Law case. I have used Scott now for over a year and he has gone above and beyond for my case. At just 5 months old he was able to obtain me custody of my Son. Scott has never led me in the wrong direction and I would highly recommend him.

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.
