Thank you!

I've been using Scott Drake as a lawyer for the past several years and he has always exceeded my expectations. He's really easy to talk to and always knows what's going on with your case. The office staff is well informed and will always take your call and he has worked miracles on a case or two of m...ine.

My savior

I can’t begin to thank Scott Drake for all the hard work and time he spent working my case. He got me the best possible option for my case and also was able to get me out of work release to be there for the birth of my daughter. Grateful is an understatement for the work this man has done for me. He ...has gone to extra lengths to make things happen for me. I would recommend him as a lawyer to anyone needing help.

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.
