Scott King - You can Trust and Depend on him.
Scott has been my attorney since 2005 and he’s represented me twice. Above board, reasonable prices and like a pit bull when fighting for you. Don’t go anywhere else. Just call him and do what he says, because that’s what he’ll do for you.

Tough and Competent
Scott King has represented my companies and myself for the past six years. He is the constant professional who knows his stuff. I feel confident anytime I need legal advice or need Scott in my corner in the courtroom. I highly recommend him to anyone that appreciates a tough competent attorney that can handle anything from a traffic ticket to major company litigation. Mr. King represented me during a tough fight with my former business partners that lasted over a year. In the end, I was very satisfied with the outcome and feel that Mr. King had my back the whole time. His lines of communications were excellent, yet I didn’t feel like he took advantage of me with the typical lawyer stopwatch.

Helpful in my time of need.
Mr. King took on a case to help me retain custody of my granddaughter. His fees were reasonable and he worked hard on this case. I really appreciate all the effort he and his staff put into bringing her back to Atlanta.

Great Attorney!! Saved my Life!
I was in deep trouble in Gwinnett county. My ex girlfriend was pissed off that i had broken up with her so she had made false statements to police to have me thrown in jail. She did not do it once... She did not do it twice.. She did it three times. A matter a fact i went to jail 4 times!! 1 misdemeanor battery, one felony battery, two aggravated stalking charges and one influencing a witness. 4 Felonies and 1 misdemeanor. The DA had revoked my third bond and the 4th time i was in jail was to stay til trial. I was looking at about 6 months just to wait for trial and then facing a conviction of 20 plus years. I was completely innocent and even with the evidence for me, the DA still wanted to convict me. But Scott King saved my life. He never stopped working and is completely into the case. Spending hours on hours interviewing and getting ready for court. He knows how to talk to the courts. Yesterday morning i was still in jail scared of my road ahead. But a video was gotten.. The DA reviewed the video. The video that proves my ex lied and when the DA called her in and showed her the video.... She confessed. The DA instantly dropped the last 3 charges from my last arrest. The DA told Scott that they still wanted to go forward with the first 2 charges.. But Scott convinced them that her credibitity was shot. The DA was forced to drop ALL charges. And a day right before Thanksgiving. Thank you Scott King. I know who my Attorney is. I hope i dont have to use you again but if the time comes you are first on call. Believe me... Trust this Attorney.

Took my money upfront and never did anything that I have to find hire another lawyer
Took my money upfront (never refunded to me) and never did anything even write a letter. So that I have to find and hire another lawyer. He is such a scumbag. Also it’s so hard to get contact with him. Didn’t respond. I want him to do a very small thing and he doesn’t want to do it. He just want to push me to the court. And call him he never responds and just totally totally waste my time. He always too busy.

Horrible attorney, should be disbarred!
I retained Scott King and had to fire him because he took my money (that he never refunded). Based on my personal experience, Scott King is very unprofessional and should be disbarred. He didn't do anything on my case, did NOT show up for my court hearing and provided no notice, did NOT let me know that the opposing counsel sent him documents and requests to respond, lied that there was no documents received (I had to find out from my ex husband and his attorney that it was not true,) etc. the list of his improper conduct is endless. He would have screwed my case if I didn't retain another attorney to correct all the damage he has done.
