This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Attorney Scott Bushnell is Exceptional. I highly recommend him

Attorney Scott Bushnell demonstrated to me the most ethical standard I have never imagined. I was referred to him by LegalShield, and took the referral to save 25% of attorney fee through my Legal Shield membership. I thought he would have me sign a retainer agreement first, but attorney Bushnell pu...t my need ahead of his and helped me save 100%. He took his time to explain to me the cost my case involves and recommend a cost-effective alternative. I called him three times, and he patiently answered my questions and gave me the instruction I needed. May God reword him bless him richly.

Harrassment by Apartment Manager

Mr. Bushnell is very knowledgeable, courteous, and provides prompt service. I had been dealing with my apartment manager for months who was always sending me threatening letters every month accusing me of something bogus. The last letter I received was demanding me to remove a dog that I have had for... 8 years with no bite history for allegedly attacking a maintenance worker. Mr. Bushnell handled months of harrassment with one response to them and had the apartment manager to agree to refrain from sending me anymore letters and allow me to live in peace for the remainder of my lease with my dog. I was completely satisfied with his professionalism and prompt service.

child custody

Scott handled a complex child custody case for me. Child custody cases are never easy. He handled this situation in the most efficient way possible saving me money and headache not to mention winning the best thing of all which was custody of my daughter.

I never heard from him again

I was injured in a car accident while at work in 2004 and hired Mister Bushnell to represent me on this case. I had a deposition where i realized that i was in trouble. when mr. Bushnell made the comment that he had went to school with the other lawyer and Was silent and allowowing questions that had... no relevance to the case. I never received any correspondence from mr bushnell until Months after i received a packet in the mail. It was a settlement offer. After several attempts to call mr. Bushnell and leaving messages, that was never returned. I finally got him on the phone. I told him that i declined the offer. He was very agitated that i was not accepting the offer. After that conversation, i never heard from him again and never received any further correspondence with him since to this day. In my opinion, He is absolutely the worst lawyer ive ever had to deal with. He didnt care about me, my family, or the extents of my injuries and the lasting effects from them that i still have to suffer with today. It amazes me that he still has his license to practice law.

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.
