So grateful

Without a doubt the kindest and most gracious, yet professional and tenacious person I have met in any field of endeavor. My scenario was the first for me. Having been arrested for DUI, during the day and a very grievous mistake, as a professional an father of 2 children, I screwed up. I was referred... to Scott and immediately he calmed my fears. He was congenial, friendly, knowledgeable and continually contacted me to assure not only myself, but my wife, was doing well through the process. In the courtroom, he was at ease with the process, stood with me and never left me alone in my fearful state. He was amazing. I would consider Scott to be a genuine person with a love for people and a spirit of excellence in his work.

Grateful

Scott is by far the most professional, outstanding attorney that I have ever met. He accomplishes miracles when we don't feel we deserve them. Scott always lets you know it is his job to worry through whatever it is you are going through, it is your job to get better and do the work you need to do.... He was not only my lawyer, he was my best friend and cared enough to kick my butt when I needed it most. It has taken me five years to write this review because of the shame I felt as I am a professional and everything in my life looked great to the outside world but was so wrong on the inside. There were days I did not want to live due to the shame and guilt I was feeling. He not only got me through my current legal issues with very little pain, he constantly reminded me that I needed to live one day at a time and make the changes needed to live a beautiful, healthy life from then on. He never judged me and followed up by giving me the tools and encouragement to do the work. I can now say today, I called him to thank him and let him know he is one of the most essential people in my life and truly made a difference. He will always have your back and be brutally honest when you need it. I have recommended Scott to family and friends for many issues, including family law because sometimes we need someone who will not just coddle or tell us what we want to hear, we need someone who will tell us the truth, get to the point and get the job done. Thank you, Scott for showing me how to truly live my best life and get through the most difficult times I have ever been through. Today, my life is beautiful and I and I am truly thriving again. One day at a time.

Awesome Attorney

A few years ago I was referred to Mr. Richardson for a family member who had gotten in some trouble. Mr. Richardson made himself available immediately for me and my family member. He made calls, visits and guided us through every detail and step we took. He has since become the "family" attorney a...nd is always available for all the needs. He is on point, carries himself very well in the courtroom and with other legal counsel, very passionate about his clients and law. I would never hesitate to hand out Mr. Richardson's number to anyone who is in need. He is attentive, responsive and caring to all needs of his clients and their family members. If you need an attorney, look no further. Scott Richardson is the one to call!!!

A true A+ professional

I just wanted to take a moment to let you know of my experience with Mr. Richardson and his Team (Tammy). I am very pleased with the performance, support, professionalism and determination of Mr. Richardson . Throughout my case, he was always very quick to respond, made himself available during time...s that most would consider after hours and always patient in explaining the status and details/developments of my case. He did a great job keeping calm and always assured me that I was going to be ok. Upon closing of my case,(dismissal) I knew Mr. Richardson did everything in his power to ensure this process had truly been as smooth and comfortable as possible. Every step along the way, I was kept informed of the progress... I could not have asked for more! I thank and commend Mr. Scott Richardson and his team for truly being an excellent attorney.

This attorney is super responsive and to the point!

I was stressed and discouraged when I went to see Scott Richardson. I had already had several attorneys in the past as my family law case seems to have gone on for too many years prior to meeting with him. He was professional, knowledgeable and understanding to my temperament when I sat in his offi...ce for the first time. He was diligent and aggressive regarding my case and I could not have asked for a better attorney. If you are looking for an attorney in the Orlando area do not look any further than Scott Richardson. I am happy to say I have not needed an attorney since Scott Richardson handled my case.

Scott Lee Richardson's Lawyer Endorsements

Endorse Scott

Alison Kerestes

Criminal defense lawyer | Jul 01

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Scott is a great criminal defense attorney, who gets the job done. As a former prosecutor, Scott and I had a few cases together. Scott was always professional, while advocating for the best result for his clients. Even after Scott had gotten the result he wanted from me, he took the time to compliment me on my own professionalism. This may seem like a small thing, but it goes to show that Scott is thinking ahead for the next client, and working to maintain good relations with the prosecutors he deals with. If you are in trouble, give Scott a call!"
