Showing 1 - 1 of 1 review | Divorce & Separation

Posted by Shelby | June 20, 2010 | Divorce & Separation

Knows his stuff!

I didn't really want to ZING my ex too badly... well OK, maybe I did, but Scott Bucci was the perfect mix of knowledge, ethics and toughness all at the same time. He looked at our circumstances and was able to tell me exactly what I should ask for in the settlement. And he got it! Scott is very per...sonable and made me feel comfortable during a difficult and stressful time. Plus, he REALLY know his stuff and takes care of his clients. I would recommend him highly.

Divorce and separation lawyer | Sep 13

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Some time ago, I referred a client to Scott. I ran into the client the other day and she spoke glowingly about Scott’s assistance. She described Scott as an attentive listener. She added that Scott was empathetic to her situation. She said that Scott offered her clear and practical advice for addressing her legal situation and that advice proved to be right on the money. She thanked me for referring her to Scott. I was not at all surprised by her strong praise of Scott as Scott has a reputation in the Richmond legal community as being a top-tier legal advocate."

"I have followed Scott's career with admiration and respect ever since our first year of law school together at George Mason University School of Law. Among our many peers, Scott possesses the rarest combination of gifts that makes him a standout talent in our profession. He blends intelligence, smarts and hard-nosed lawyering with personality, sensitivity and down to earth practicality. We call this a client's dream and an adversary's nightmare. Continued success to Scott, Mark and their firm!"

"I first met Scott as opposing counsel in a premises liability case. I was impressed with Scott's ability to not only represent his client but with his knowledge of the legal issues in the case. Scott's years practicing on the defense side gives him a unique perspective on representing individuals against insurance companies."

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.
