Handling an auto accident case

Mr. Bergman and his assistants were very helpful in my case and kept in informed at every stage. Communication between both parties was very clear and detail oriented. He helped me to find the medical help I needed to recover quickly. I will definitely recommend him to anyone who needs an attorney....

Focused and a sheer will fighting machine...

Over the past two years Scott Bergman presented my case and was a true professional lawyer who believed in my case and saw nothing but fact accross the board. I have witnessed his true expertise, knowledge and wisdom and how he dedicated himself to me, which meant a lot. From my experience in being... one of his clients, Scott Bergman faught hard for my case and devoted his energy in making sure that I win the case. His 100% commitment to me assured me that he was an excellent lawyer. He was very thourough and professsional. I would definitely recommend and refer him to anyone thats in need of top notch lawyer. He will get the job done and the customer will be 100% satisfied. Sometimes I think he never sleeps. He is always working, that's a lawyer for you...He response to my calls and when i needed his expert advise, with regards to my case he was always there. Awesome!

Great customer service

I am very satisfied with the work Mr. Bergman did with my case. I liked the attention I was given because I was given service in Spanish and I did not know very good English. I'd recommend the attorney to anyone who is looking for one.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
