Console Matison Scott Matison attorney

Scott Matison was the best. He handled our divorce for us and dealt with the one party that was not in our state anymore. Scott made what was a mess into a very clean and neat divorce. Any questions we emailed were answered within minutes. He was great. If we ever needed an attorney again he’s our gu...y.

Extremely Recommended

Scott was very responsive in all matters that I reached out about. He was always willing to give me constructive feedback on where we stood in the case and I had a sense that he truly cared about me and families well being during the course of it. I would 1000% recommend Scott to anyone that needs a ...good, thoughtful lawyer that will fight for what's best for you.

The Best I've Had

I've been nothing but elated with the level of service Scott has provided. He's been extremely attentive to my needs and requests from the moment I reached out to him. He consistently helped me strategize and overcome every obstacle thrown our way. A couple years ago I used two separate attorneys who... couldn't hold a candle to Scott. I sincerely hope he doesn't leave this area or decide to change careers, because I am certain I will be needing his services in the future and that he will satisfy my needs to the best of his abilities.

Review of Scott Matison

Scott Matison helped me with my divorce. I truly didn’t realize I needed an advocate to speak for me until he did. Getting divorced is emotionally very hard. You are losing a partner. To have an attorney speak for you and in your best interest is very comforting. He is good at what he does but more... importantly he is a kind and good person.

Fair, honest, prompt, and worth it

Scott Matison was a pleasure to work with these past few months. Some important details for anyone looking for a family lawyer to know are these; Scott was prompt in answering questions, he would take them at nearly any time of the day, and even on the weekends he would take phone calls, or E-mail...s, no question was ever too stupid and Scott made it comfortable to ask. I knew nothing about how the law works and this guy was professional, prompt, and on point. I felt like I let the hounds loose when I retained Scott, he went after every small detail that would have helped me in my situation that I didn't think about until I heard his opinion. I got the best deal that I could get under the circumstances. He was very knowledgeable and I am more than proud with my decision to retain Scott Matison to represent my case, and if your searching for a family lawyer to represent you, then it stops here. This guy will go above and beyond to make sure you get what you deserve, and is fair in his line of work.
