Currently on felony probation. Received a misdemeanor traffic charge. Mr. Fortas was able to reduce the charge to non-reporting traffic citation to the DDS so it would not affect my upcoming insurance rate renewal. And made sure that my probation which is in the same county did not know of the incide...nt. I am very grateful because going into the that court house I received a lot of very nasty faces. But once he entered and stood for my representation I knew I was going to be alright. I walked out free man and thank God for him.

I made an appointment to see Scott Fortas, being a little skeptical because I had read a "rip off review" online. However, I found Scott to be attentive and knowledgeable in his approach and resolution to my son's case. Anytime I reached out to him, he contacted me right away, and the result he pr...edicted came around. Everything went smoothly, with no negative surprises or false promises. Wish I had contacted him five years ago. I could not be more pleased with his service and/or result. I would highly recommend him.

Mr Scott (Fortas) has been my lawyer for many years. My first arrest occurred a few years ago and while I haven't been pleased with past lawyers I sought recommendations from others. Mr. Scott came HIGHLY recommended by MANY people. I was arrested and sent to jail for several hours before I contac...ted Mr. Scott. As soon as Mr. Scott was on my case I was released immediately. Since then I have used him for several different offenses and found him to be extremely knowledgeable, timely and always kept me informed of the situation. I have researched him thoroughly and also spoke with many other people who have used him and everything was extremely positive. I am shocked to see that a bad review was written about him. There has to be another explanation for it.

Hired Eric Scott Fortas to represent me for a traffic violation. After a few months, I was notified that everything was taken care of and the total fine would be $600. At that time, Fortas requested I send a Cashier's Check to his office so that he could arrange the payment. I did as he requested an...d went about my day. Two weeks later, I was notified that his office had misplaced the Cashier's Check, and that I had 24 hours to take a cash payment of $600 to Meriwether Courthouse (which was over 100 miles from my residence) or my license would be suspended. I asked if his office could assist me in the matter, as I had work the following day. I was told by Eric Scott Fortas that he could not help me, and I would have to go make the payment on my own. So I call out of work the next day, drive the 200+ mile round trip to make my cash payment (still have the receipt) and go about my life. Fast forward three months later to New Year's Eve. Where I was pulled over for possible window tint violation, and was arrested due to driving on a suspended license. After finally being bonded out, I immediately contacted Fortas Law Group to make them aware of the situation. I was offered an apology, and nothing more. No reimbursement of time or bond, but worst of all, no assistance in getting this issue removed from my record. It is now permanently shown on background checks and increases the insurance premium of my entire family. I would say Fortas Law Group is negligent at best. This lawyer and his office do not care about the people, rather would let his client get wrongfully arrested and damage their permanent record just so he could save some time. This review may be a couple years late, but after finishing my graduate program in finance, and being denied for a position due to a wrongful arrest. I cannot help but be upset and disappointed at what has transpired from putting my trust in them. No honor, no responsibility, and definitely no accountability.
