Excellent Attorney

Attorney Ron Scott was utmost professional and very compassionate about the case. We have used Attorney Scott for our needs which consisted of three part court appearances. Attorney Scott won all three of the different stages of the proceedings for our case. Attorney Scott was prepared with all docum...ent and evidence to present to the Judge. Attorney Scott's staff were very understanding during this time and were top of the line for receiving and returning calls and emails. Attorney Scott is on top of the scale for Attorneys in our area and North Carolina.

Very satisfied

I was in need of representation for a divorce in the county I lived in , thankfully Mr Scott is licensed to practice in several counties. After my consultation I had no hesitation at all in hiring this firm. His office staff was very attentive and always responded to any questions and or concerns I ...had. When it came to the mediation to settle all financial concerns Mr Scott was adamant in making sure I got what I deserved out of a 20 plus year marriage and he also informed me of extra measures to take to protect myself in the future financially. The day after the long mediation Mr Scott personally called me to see how I was feeling about the events from the day before and also let me know if I have any questions or concerns to feel free to contact him. He not only got exactly what I was wanting out of the divorce but more ! He truly looks out for your best interest and leaves you content knowing his door is still open for you if need be. As a woman that was a stay at home mom while my spouse worked it was terrifying to think what am I going to do financially now , Mr Scott made me feel at ease throughout the entire process and after. If I had to do it all over again I would definitely hire Mr Scott for my legal issues and you should too! YOU WILL BE VERY PLEASED !!!!

Divorce representation

Mr. Scott represented me through the initial stages of my separation/ divorce process (and continues to do so). I felt completely overwhelmed and he and his staff immediately set me at ease, never pressured me, and they completely understand the various dynamics involved in such a challenging time. ... Confidence and sound advice along with results are what he and his team have produced. I recommend Ron Scott to anyone seeking counsel for divorce matters. Best lawyer in the area!

Child custody attorney

I hired Mr. Scott to represent me in a custody case with my ex-husband. There were several concerning issue regarding my children's safety when they were around their father. Their father is known to be a smooth talker and can usually con his way out of anything. Not in this case. Mr. Scott was amazi...ng in the court room! He was able to get my ex to admit to multiple things that worked in my favor that he probably would not of admitted to otherwise. He was able expose his lies and show his true character. I was awarded full custody of my 7 and 4 year old with only supervised visitation (he also obtained an emergency order that kept the kids under my supervision while this whole process took place). I was very nervous about filing for custody because of my ex-husbands character and that he likes to boast about all the "people" he knows in the community, including people in the legal system. Mr. Scott put my worries at ease and helped me ensure the safety of my children. He is a very smart and compassionate attorney that knows his way around the justice system and the courtroom. You can tell that he cares about his clients and is not just in this for the money. He also helped me with filing for divorce (there was nothing to contest there, so it was a simple case) and with a speeding ticket. He took care of those two matters seamlessly. I would 100% hire him again and again for any legal matter. A+++++++

50B/Separation/Divorce

First and foremost I would like to say thank you to Attorney Ron Scott and his staff for their excellent service to me during one of the most stressful and difficult times in my life. After my consultation with Mr. Scott, I hired him immediately. The way he listened to my situation, explained all my ...options and informed me of what he felt we could do, I knew he was the one that I wanted to take on my case. He helped me through the abuse, separation and the start of my divorce. We negotiated and settled out of court with the settlement being in my favor. I received more than I had ever thought possible, being that I was only married for a short time. Mr. Scott made sure that I was taken care of and received what was entitled to me. He was very understanding and always there to answer any questions or concerns I may of had. He gave me his cell number to reassure me that he would be there for me, at any time, and he was. I am now able to continue on with my life with a great sense of hope and relief. I would highly recommend Attorney Ron Scott to anyone looking for an expert and caring attorney to represent them in any case. I will forever be grateful to Mr. Scott and his very professional staff, especially Holly, for all that they did for me.
