Car accident at work

I had a car accident at work which involves workers comp and personal injury. Their firm was able to handle both cases for me and I was very pleased with the knowledge Mr Stone had about the whole process

Not the usual pompous ass attorney!

Mr. Stone did an outstanding job of representing me in a workers compensation case, when I was injured at work. He was genuinely concerned for me, personally, and demonstrated compassion and caring, while guiding me through a very painful, tortuous process. He communicated with me in person, over the... phone, through e-mails and regular mail. He answered my questions and addressed my concerns in a timely manner. He never exhibited any hesitancy in standing up for me, to a very large and powerful insurance company! He gave me good advice, which I mostly accepted, and we were quite successful in obtaining a good settlement from a known to be difficult, thrifty, insurance company. He never gave me unrealistic hope and was very knowledgeable in what I could expect as the outcome. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Scott to anyone in need of an attorney, in his areas of expertise.

Terrible

I had a slip and fall with a broken bone that required extensive and very painful surgery. I completed a form online a few months before the statute of limitations for the fall was reached. I got responses from several attorneys but chose Scott Stone. He was very enthused in the beginning. It was cl...early a case of negligence. I don't know whether a deadline was missed or what happened. He didn't offer an explanation just told me I wouldn't be receiving as big a settlement as originally anticipated. Then he and his para legal stopped taking my calls. I finally spoke to him and he said I would probably only receive around $5000. I asked when and he said he didn't know when exactly. That was four years ago and I haven't heard a word from him not to mention not a penny.

Relationship: Co-worker

"I met Scott nearly (10) years ago as opposing counsel on several cases. I was impressed with his ability to cut through the red tape and address the "real issues" in cases. He is also a very personable and interesting individual with a wide range of interests outside of the law and has traveled internationally extensively. Anytime I have talked with a client about their dealings with Scott, they've had nothing but great things to say about his ability as both a communicator and lawyer. I am grateful to get to regularly work with Scott on cases now - on the same team!"

  • 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.
