Puts In The Time

If you are In need of an Attorney who knows Family Law and you need someone who will respond immediately with precise knowledge and will help you navigate the Florida Custody Laws concerning Divorce or Separation, call Chris Scott. Chris will spend as much time as it takes to help u better understan...d your situation and make you feel more confident moving forward. Chris agreed to take my case and it was because he truly wanted to help me tell my story. At a time where I needed a voice, he listened and didn’t make me wonder if he was going to get involved, he jumped right in. He has quality associates/staff that make you feel like you have a team of lawyers working for you WITHOUT pushing a large retainer or upfront $ amount at you. Very flexible and what amazed me is that he even reached out to me and would call/email on the weekends if there was something on his mind. He really showed true interest and concern for me and my family. I knew I had made the right decision to call Chris Scott and when you talk to him you will know you made the right choice too. JFBJR

Avvo Rating

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.

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.
