Truly Exceeds Expectations
Scott was referred to me by a trusted friend. I then went online and read his reviews. At first glance, is sounded like a "too good to be true" scenario. The truth is, Scott and his team exceeded ALL expectations. I am still blown away at how incredibly smooth and easy this process went. Scott was able to fight for me, the best possible outcome for my case. It was evident that each moment, I was getting service with a personal touch that I can't believe you would find anywhere else.
There was great communication, a feeling of calmness, and the upmost professionalism that ended with the "best case" scenario I could have hoped for. The absolute best in his field!

My wife and I received the dread call - your children were in a major car wreck.
My teenager was not at fault in the car wreck and she and her brother had significant injuries. The at fault insurance company did absolutely nothing to reimburse us for ambulance, hospital, and other medical bills, much less pay for any pain and suffering. The insurance company just drug out the process trying to get to the two-year statute of limitations. The hospital and other medical services did not cooperate with us, but just kept sending statements saying we owed money, even after we paid the bills. After some time, we finally hired Scott Cummins at The Cummins' Law Firm. My wife and I were so relieved to have Mr. Cummins fight on our side. He was able to figure out all of the medical bills, and finally get the at fault insurance to pay a reasonable settlement, that more than paid the bills plus gave my kids some extra money for their pain and suffering. He walked us through the entire process including helping us with all the legal paperwork. We highly recommend Scott Cummins.

The BEST in GA/Coweta Co/Newnan!!!!!
Scott Cummins and Team- CHANGED MY LIFE AND SAVED MY LIFE!!!
I owe a huge debt of service and gratitude to the Cummins Firm. They are professional in all aspects of law, processes, & procedure for their clients and what they encounter along the way. They were phenomenal in handling my personal injury case, over the past couple years, that recently closed. They've helped others in my family and extended family, come to reasonable outcomes and conclusions with some various criminal cases. Scott Cummins knows all angles, because he's held all pertinent positions under the legal system. The oppositional sides fear Scott and are usually forced to put their "hat in hand", or make other arrangements/pleas.
Class acts, Experienced, Well-rounded, Timely, Thorough, & Affordable!!! They give YOU- (the client) -a chance (s) to speak your mind, give input, and they'll always be transparent/up-front about what your choice (s) OR what they are before proceeding toward a selected path.
I recommend Mr. Cummins as a TOP candidate for any and all areas of law practiced.
Thanks,
BB

Needless to say our family is beyond thankful! We really owe you Mr. Cummins

Best Law Firm
I was referred to Scott Cummin's Law Firm for an injury resulting in a head on collision car accident. If anyone needs this type of law, I cannot recommend this firm enough. Scott Cummins and his Legal Assistant were efficient, persistent, follow ups, stays in contact, updates you often.
In addition to his professional law skills, Scott is the kindest person you will have to represent you. His demeanor is real and cannot hide his kindness for all.

Great Experience & a Man of his Word
Mr. Scott at Stemberger & Cummins PC was a pleasure to work with. He was professional, transparent, and efficient every step of the way. He answered any/all of my questions and I always felt like he genuinely wanted what was best for me. I had a great experience and would recommend him to anyone in need of legal council.

Exceeded my expectations
Scott Cummins provided legal advice and guidance to my daughter after she was struck broadside by another driver. The at-fault driver attempted to pass a tractor trailer truck illegally. This moment of poor judgment caused an accident that left my daughter with both serious back and head injuries. These injuries are traumatic enough that she will need to deal with the pain and recovery for years to come. The Stemberger & Cummins Law Firm made sure the Insurance Company of the at-fault driver paid for all past and future medical expenses by pursuing a satisfactory settlement. I found Mr. Cummins to be experienced, responsive, knowledgeable and honest as he dealt with my daughter’s needs.
I would highly recommend Mr. Cummins to anyone seeking legal representation that is fair, honest and will keep your best interest at the forefront. Mr. Cummins’s level of expertise and professionalism surpassed even my greatest expectations. Aside from his obvious skill and remarkable success rate, Mr. Cummins is genuinely committed to his clients. With each challenge and circumstance that arose, he gave practical advice and supplied the necessary information to allow my daughter and I to make informed decisions. He guided us through the long and daunting legal process, yet never lost his sense of humor or patience despite our frequent inquiries. He provided a support system and served as a mentor to my daughter as the case weaved its way through the legal and medical process. I requested of him early in the development of this case that I expected the same level of representation as he would give to his own daughter. Mr. Cummins exceeded my expectations.
I believe lawyers like Mr. Cummins are truly and exceptionally rare. It goes without saying, I would never hesitate to use or refer his outstanding services.

So very grateful.....
We hired Scott Cummins to help us when our son was arrested on a burglary charge. He was 17 at the time and terrified-he thought his life was over and he felt hopeless. Scott worked extremely hard for us right from the beginning. He was diligent, paid attention to every detail and was persistent in negotiations with the DA’s office-our son’s case went on for almost two years. As a result of his efforts, we received a dismissal (our son was facing up to ten (10) years in prison). Scott was always thorough and professional. He never gave up on our son and for that we are eternally grateful. We HIGHLY recommend Scott. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Scott Cummins is a GREAT ATTORNEY!!
Scott was referred to me by a close friend and what a great referral this was… I couldn't have asked for a more personable, considerate, skilled, knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate attorney.

He also had a DWI charge and Scott was able maintain some limited driving privileges for him. Scott is very, very well connected in Coweta County and knows the key players. If you have a need for a criminal defense attorney in Coweta County, SCOTT CUMMINS IS YOUR MAN!! I guarantee you will be pleased with his service and with him as the choice for your attorney.
