He's the champ you need when you get knocked down!
Let me be clear. This guy isn't rainbows and butterflies or strawberry icing on a cake. There's a lot of lawyers out there who like to give you false promises with a fake smile just to get paid when they are not even sure of what they can do for you. Scott Drake is blunt, bold and brilliant. I was b...

Scott Drake
Scott was professional and personable when handling our case. He was always reachable no matter what time of day or night if we had questions or concerns. Now I consider Scott a friend and someone I can go to if I need legal advice or help with another case. I would recommend Scott to anyone in need ...

awesome
Mr. Drake is wonderful! He was worth the money. He made sure to keep me informed with the daily running around and getting a good result. Without his expert knowledge it would have so so much worse. Plus he always returned phonecalls! Thank you again and again!

Don’t hire this attorney
He showed no interest. Convinced me to take a ridiculous plea and told me I would only do about 1 year since I didn’t have a record and I done 4 years and just recently coming home. I guess he only fight for certain cases. So basically if you don’t want to do a lot of time don’t hire him.
While we strive to get the best results possible for our clients sometimes a plea is the best option, because the effect of a conviction after trial is often times punishment that is more severe than that offered for a plea. Because this reviewer chose to post anonymously I cannot respond with any further detail other than to say the choice to plea or go to trial is always the client's not the lawyers.

Very Pleased!
Scott Drake is an awesome attorney. He was able to negotiate an excellent plea bargain. Scott continued to negotiate with the prosecutor and gained additional concessions beyond what I expected. Scott was more than willing to take the case to trial, if an acceptable deal was not reached. Scott wa...
