Christopher L Scott

I had several phone consultations with this attorney about the same case. He couldn’t remember the info I had given him when we spoke each time. He lost his notes that he had written during the consultations. He gave me a price of $5,000 retainer and I agreed. He said his legal asst would contact me ...for an agreement. After I did not hear anything for a week, I contacted their office and Kathryn responded with they are short staffed and unable to take our case. Kathryn referred me to another attorney that was not even practicing the type of law we needed from an attorney. I do not recommend wasting your time with this attorney for family law or adoption. He should have never agreed to take my case, give me an amount then tell his legal asst to contact me & tell me something different than he had. By the way, his office isn’t as busy as they made it seem. I checked into this and he took on several cases after mine that were similar. He was shady and dishonest, instead of being up front and telling me he didn’t think he could handle it or that he didn’t think we would win. By the way- we did win, so his loss!

On March 28th, 2022, paid consult fee $25. to give advice on a family law case. After explaining to Atty Scott what the situation was about he stated that he can handle the case, normally charges $3500, but will get Kathryn to send over a contract showing down payment. I was referred by Legal service...s of Fl, several calls were place only to go straight to voice mail and never got a return phone call. On April 6th,2022 less than 3 days left to file a motion, Kathryn calls and once I question about Atty Scott, she made up lame excuses then stated that they would have to drop everything their doing to rush with this case and he was unaware and confused that I needed his help, Kathryn stated to me to seek legal counsel elsewhere. I will definitely get someone else. I would not spend any funds on an atty that doesn't have the best interest of his future client. I can't use his services and definitely will seek someone else that won't wait to the last minute to get something done.

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
