Vocal and Establishes Presence

When my fiancé and I got into an argument at Disney, he was escorted out under false pretenses of the Disney security. He was tried for battery of dating violence. We may have gotten loud with one another but never in our history has he ever laid a hand on me. We hired Scott to get the case thrown ou...t of court as the state went forward to prosecute my fiancé after I filed not to press charges. It went all the way to a jury trial where Scott was able to disprove the witness statements that he laid a hand on me. The jury came back with a not guilty verdict. Thank you Scott so much for proving my fiancés innocence!

Would hire him again.

When you are in your "golden years" and find yourself in need of a lawyer, It can become very stressful. This is the position my husband and I found ourselves in August of 2015. We were very blessed to be referred to Scott Richardson for help. Our case took ten long months and Attorney Richardson was... always there to answer our questions and give us reassurance when needed. He was always available to us by phone and was willing to schedule an appointment when we felt we needed council. Our outcome was positive and I know it was because of the dedication and concern Mr. Richardson had for us. We weren't just clients to him. We were real people with real needs and he met them without question. I hope we don 't have the need for an attorney again, but I can tell you without doubt, I would recommend Scott to anyone. We have not only had superior representation, we have gained a true friend.

Fantastic Lawyer!

I cannot say enough good things about Scott Richardson! I was falsely accused of domestic battery charge in October 2015, which ended up leading into a custody case involving my 2 very young children, too. I called Scott Sunday evening around 8:30 p.m. and was freaking out talking a mile a minu...te over the phone to him explaining my situation. He calmly listened for a good 15 minutes and let me get it all out of my system and then agreed to meet me that very our at his office to discuss all the pertinent of my case. (how many other lawyers do you know that would do that?) My case was extremely complicated because we were not married and had paternity established and Joint 50/50 custody in another state but not in Florida. Scott was able to resolve both the criminal issue and the family issues. He was able to give me sound advice and urge me to take my case to trial. I took his advice and was able to have him file all the necessary paperwork to keep my kids in the state of Florida. Not only did he get the custody order from the other state recognized and enforced in the state of Florida but he also gave me excellent legal representation which led to the state of Florida dismissing all charges against me. I was not the easiest client to deal with, I'm sure, because I was an emotional wreck during this whole process but he never showed frustration or any signs of being annoyed by my neediness. He was extremely patient and very well prepared leading up to the trial and the day of trial. He prepared to go to trial even though he was very confident the state would not likely move forward... I am so very grateful for having Scott Richardson as my lawyer. I highly recommend Scott Richardson!

Better Call Scott

I had two major mistakes in 2015... I got involved in a situation that led to my arrest and I didn't hire Scott "at first"... A four thousand dollar lesson / mistake... Four thousand given to an attorney that would not listen and did not represent me the way I wanted or needed... So, I fired her and... found Scott... Scott did listen, Scott did return calls... SCOTT AND HIS STAFF FOUGHT FOR ME...Scott and his staff are in your corner 100%... It was money well spent with Scott... The Law is not always Black and White, and there are many shades of gray... "He's Known" and "Respected" by the States Attorney Office and the Judges... And this allows for open communication for positive results... You Better call Scott... Don't waste your time or money with another Attorney !!!!
