This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Can't even call someone back! Shame!

This law firm is hiding the information for a crooked pool company owner I believe to be Jordan Hilgado. Jordan own multiple sham pool companies. Smothers Law firm is listed as an Agent for West-Bay pools in Hernando county. I had called this law group to get information for a representative of West...-bay pools with no response. I have paid West-bay over $60,000 and only have a concrete shell. I don't understand the exact coordination of Smothers Law and west-bay just yet, but i have 20 other pool company owners looking for answers and have notified abc action news. This law firm should be ashamed of themselves. They could not even give a me a call back to assist with mine and other Tampa Bay residents loses. I definitely would not recommend unless your looking to hire someone to protect potential shady business practices.

I highly recommend Scott Smothers

Scott Smothers has served as (name of business omitted) attorney since we started our business. He has helped us out with a wide range of legal matters including contracts, collections, trademarks, and claims of liens. He provides excellent customer service and has always been fair and honest with ...his billing practices. He is very accessible and always concerned with helping (name of business omitted) navigate the legal world to be the most profitable business it can be. I highly recommend Scott Smothers.

  • 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.
