Best attorney in Orlando

What Scott Richardson did for me is hard to part into words. In my criminal case he did such a masterful job that the jury came back with A NOT GUILTY VERDICT in less than 15 minutes. He also handled my divorce. I had an extremely disgruntled ex-wife who was even willing to go against her best intere...st to make things drag on forever. Scott streamlined the divorce process avoided the drama, and frankly, we got every we wanted in court and then some. I have recommended him to 5 other friends and @ picked Scott and called me after their cases to thank me repeatedly for recommending Scott to them....The other 3 are still calling me to complain about the attorneys they hired and what a terrible job they did and how they are still dealing with the ramifications to this day. Whether it is criminal charges or a divorce, hand your case over to Scott Richardson, go back to work and let him handle it. You will not be disappointed. Also, he is not going to rip you off and file 50 unnecessary motions just to blow through your money.

Taking care of teenager issues

We have called on Scott Richardson for a couple of traffic issues regarding our teenage son that were going to have a detrimental affect on his ability to obtain insurance and possibly keep his license. He took the cases to court and won the cases! What a life saver, and did I mention that he and h...is assistant Susan were so incredibly professional and accomodating. I am a local business owner and place a value on great customer care and service. Scott and staff epitomize these same values that I consider so important in whom we do business with. To say that we are pleased with the whole process & the outcome would be an understatement! Scott is one of the most professional, caring, and honest attorneys I have ever met or worked with. I have even called him recently regarding an issue that was not his specialty... he gave me some FREE sound advice over the phone and a great referral! We have referred Scott and do so with confidence knowing he will take great care of our referral! If in need of his services, dont hesitate to call on Scott! You will be glad you did!

Excellent services

I hired a different attorney at first who did a terrible job and put me in a worse situation than I was before and Scott was able to reverse all the previous attorneys damage plus more (instead of 28m in prison only 3yr probation). He put in a lot of work on very short notice including conducting a s...everal hour meeting on a Sunday! Very reasonable rates for his valuable services, would highly recommend him.

Great Lawyer

Scott handled my DUI case with pure professionalism. I have never been in trouble with the law up until now and I did not know what to expect but he walked me through my case with ease. Scott got the DUI reduced to a reckless driving non-alcohol related and he got them to withhold adjudication. He al...so got me out of a ticket I received when I got arrested (blowing by a state trooper doing 80 in a 65 is not a good idea). To say that I am happy with my lawyer is an understatement thank you Scott you are a badass.

Scott Lee Richardson Lawyer Extrodinare ! !

If you are considering hiring a lawyer for a criminal case in the Central Florida area you should quit looking at the Ads you got in the mail, quit searching the internet and immediately retain Scott Lee Richardson. Why do I say that? Let me tell you how he helped me. I haven't been in any trouble w...ith the law in over 15 years but when I was younger I got in alot of trouble so I do have a criminal record. I was visiting Orlando on a holiday weekend in July and I was arrested and charged with (1) misdemeanor and (1) FELONY I am self employed and not rich so I was appointed a Public Defender . a PD.A PD is a lawyer right? WRONG !! I was shocked on the first phone interview I a had with my Court appointed lawyer before I even explained my side of the story he said , You are guilty! Yes you heard that right my lawyer said I was guilty, without even listening to my defense. I then went to court for what they called case management my lawyer stood with me in front of the judge the first day I ever met him . The judge said to the prosecutor are you ready for the trial the prosecuter said yes then the judge asked my defense lawyer if we were ready for the trial and without talking to me he said yes we are. I said no we are not! I was granted a (1) month continuance.When I was on my way back to Orlando the next month I was scared to death.I happened to drive by a Billboard on I-4 in the Sanford area there was Scott Richardson's Ad. I wrote down the phone number and continued on to the Orange County Couthouse where my PD said they have offered me a deal (90) Days in jail, "JAIL" I immediately walked down the hall and called Scott's number His assistant Susan answered the phone I breifly told her my situation.She said you need to talk to Scott within 2-3 minutes Scott called me I told him my story and he said go back to the PD and tell him I will have a lawyer there in 10 minutes 8.5 minutes later here comes Scott Lee Richardson.He immediately took charge and told me not to worry. we will fix this. And fix it he did Mr. Richardson arranged a hearing before the trial and got all the charges DROPPED. Thats right, no fines, no court costs, no record, no probation, no communiy service, no missed work,no trial, no lousy deal, No BS DROPPED with an apology from judge I might add.I was so happy that this nightmare was over I cried like a baby.The way he did this was by beleiving in me and knowing the LAW! That was (3) Days ago and I still can't believe it. Thank You Mr Scott Lee Richardson Lawyer Extrodinare and Susan I will never forget what you have done for me! I do not recomend even coming into contact with the police in the Orlando area but if you do. Mr Scott Lee Richardson is the Lawyer for you!!
