Complex Real Estate case that Scott resolved with great success
Scott is my 4th attorney concerning four real estate purchases where multiple parties were deceitful and/or fraudulent. The complexity cannot be overstated concerning the unwinding of these transactions with the least amount of monetary damage to me. Due time was given to my first three attorneys that I hired, but each lacked the knowledge and especially the creative thinking that was required to reach my objectives.
There were multiple legal paths that we could have taken concerning these four individual real estate transactions, each one having their own set of complications. Scott was exceptional in determining various solutions with their probabilities of success and costs. He always kept the communication lines open with me. I’ve always felt that Scott represented my best interest. He was very prepared, professional and determined in dealing with the carousel of mortgage attorneys. Taxes were a part of the complexity of these transactions. He has a variety of expertise, but for my best interest recommended a very capable tax attorney to assist in related matters. His expertise in real estate law is without question.
This is what you get from Scott. High intelligence, preparedness, confidence without the arrogance, very determined, and ethical. I’m very fortunate to have Scott as my attorney, I just wished I found him a few years prior. Of course, I would highly recommend Scott.
TRUSTED REAL ESTATE ATTORNEY, DEPENDABLE ADVISER, ACCOMPLISHED LITIGATOR
Scott Rothman is a dependable adviser and accomplished litigator. In his view, the only way to solve a legal dilemma is to start by asking the right questions. Whether in the role of consultant or advocate, he helps people and companies understand how the law provides answers, and what to do when the answer isn’t clear.
Scott founded the firm's real estate practice, encompassing both litigation and transactional matters. Through his work on behalf of the major title underwriters, he has developed the tools to get deals done right, and to cure deals gone wrong. In the courtroom, his track record for unwinding frauds and resolving property disputes has earned him accolades as one of Pennsylvania's premier real estate litigators.
While Scott devotes the bulk of his practice to real estate engagements, he and his team also sustain a general civil practice across the Greater Philadelphia region, including South Jersey. In that capacity, he counsels business owners and individuals, and offers commercial and personal litigation services.
Prior to attending law school, Scott served with AmeriCorps for two years working in construction for Habitat for Humanity in North Philadelphia, and then taught public high school for a year in the same neighborhood. Scott maintains his interest in education through coaching mock trial students, lecturing at Villanova Law School on the subject of real property, and conducting seminars for attorneys and title professionals. When not in the courtroom or classroom, Scott enjoys community activities with his family in Upper Dublin Township, spicy food, and sailing.

Professional, courteous, and competent
Scott represented us in a nasty lawsuit with a fraudulent contractor and was in one word excellent. Scott provided good advice, had our interests at heart (i.e. recommending what is best for us even if it meant less work/billable hours for him), and was always professional and courteous. We happened to listen in as he was talking to the judge about various case matters and it was clear Scott knows the law and was held in high regard by the judge. We recommend Scott to anyone who is looking for a lawyer that very capable and is really on their side.

Scott did an excellent work for me
Scott helped me to pursue a deadbeat tenant. He was quick in gathering the details, thorough and frank in his assessment of the matter, and to the point in his approach. He also did a great job of keeping me informed and explaining things to me along the way.

Strongly recommend
I stumbled on Mr. Rothman while desperately searching for help regarding my dad's estate. I was being told there was an $80,000.00 lien on the property and there wasn't much I could do about it. I turned to AVVO for help and received many responses, one of which was Mr. Rothman's. From the moment he replied to my posting, I knew he was the lawyer for me. He was dead on with his advice. I met with him and within minutes of my leaving his office, he was off and running and never stopped for a moment. He was in constant contact with myself, my realtor, and all persons involved in a complicated situation. He worked through it and settled it with such ease. He was with me at settlement and provided me peace of mind even up until the last moment. I can't say enough about Mr. Rothman and would recommend him without a doubt. He's a true professional with experience above and beyond. He, also, has a kind, caring heart.....very refreshing these days.

I retained Scott to handle a estate claim against a commercial property i purchased for my practice. He is very knolwledgeable of the law and proved to be very aggressive in handling the case and has the best interests of his clients at all times. He is very accessible and gave me the confidence that I had the right person on my side. He is well endorsed and retained by many Title companies for his services. I had a positive outcome of our case and would not hesitate to reccomend him to anyone.

Excellent work
Scott represented us in a bizarre situation where the City of Philadelphia sold our property at Sheriff Sale the day after we purchased it, even though we paid off the taxes at purchase! Scott did an excellent job of rectifying the situation and dealing with all the parties involved.
