Excellent and Honest
Mr. Ives is very upfront and honest. We consulted him about some home matters and he gave his assessment of the situation and what our best options were and what we should consider before hiring him. He did not try any subtle pressure into hiring him because what he would charge may be too much for o...

Fantastic Lawyer
Scott Ives is true professional who has a broad-based yet in-depth knowledge of the law. He's been able to help me directly or indirectly on multiple occasions. I would highly recommend Scott to anyone who in need of an attorney you can rely on and trust. I consider Scott a blessing in my life!

Really did me wrong
Scott Ives is not the guy you want to hire. I am a now divorced mom of three, at first he was great, he turned so ugly so fast. My divorce was complicated.

This is the first bad review I’ve received on Avvo after fourteen five star ratings. I guess it is to be expected that after almost 30 years of practice there will be an unhappy ex-client, but it is still disappointing. I’m sorry that this client was not happy with my services. Virginia ethics rules and professionalism prevent me from defending myself by discussing the facts of this client’s case. But I do feel it is important to note that all decisions regarding this intelligent client’s case were made with her full knowledge and consent. I am sorry that this client now indicates that she was unhappy with my services several years after her case ended. I strive to represent my clients to the highest standard and in a manner which leaves them satisfied with my efforts. I would welcome the opportunity to meet with this client to discuss her concerns further.

Scott won this single dad custody of his daughter
Mine was a difficult case. My ex was extremely toxic and made this a very high conflict case that ultimately went to trial. Scott did everything he could to settle but she was having none of it and we went to trial. Scott is an excellent negotiator and also a bulldog in the courtroom. Something that ...
