Scott Schlegel

Scott Schlegel represented me in a very complex divorce modification involving child custody and out of state relocation. I was consistently impressed with his level of professionalism and communication. Scott clearly explained the law to me, set my expectations for the most likely outcome, and the...n relentlessly pursued the best interests of my child. His experience and network of contacts in the Orlando area really paid off, as Scott coordinated everything we needed to support our case. Scott had just the right combination of knowing where to pick and choose his battles, respecting my budget and not inflating hours unnecessarily, but also knowing where to invest his time for the best result. He and his office kept me updated nearly real time on any developments in my case, and he was always available to me when needed. I was extremely pleased with the outcome of my case, and recommend Scott Schlegel without hesitation.

Scott was understanding and very compassionate. He understood our issues and helped us to understand the legal process. Scott represented our issues and used the law to get our revised plan that was much more fair than the original plan at the time of the divorce 8 years ago. We had to go to court ...twice and mediation once. He won both cases hands down. When my ex wife did everything to obstruct the process he continued to use the law and get our rights recognized. Scott's legal brilliance kept a very stressful event manageable and we all worked together to accomplish our goals. His legal team are very talented and suppoetive. If we have to go back to court Scott is who we will definitely use.

I contacted Scott for a difficult case. His team walked me through step by step, so I knew what was going on at all times. By the end of my divorce he was able to get most of what I was asking the court for and when it came to custody of my daughter he managed for me to obtain 70%. His prices are ver...y competitive compared to other lawyers and he is straight forward about he can and can’t do.

I hired Scott in 2013 to help with a post modification child support judgment. My case was highly complex and the opposing party was very uncooperative. When I procured his services, I was receiving $0 per month in child support for two children, no medical support, and had a sizable amount in back ...child support owed to me. Mediation was not surprisingly, unsuccessful. The OP (opposing party) would not negotiate or be reasonable. As Scott's staff diligently prepared for trial, they were able to find several ways in which the opposing party had lied, misrepresented his income, and basically played the system. Without his paralegal's exceptional work, my outcome would have been very different. At trial, I was amazed by Scott's courtroom presence. He was confident, knowledgeable, and he definitely got the job done! Throughout this almost two year process, Scott and his staff were there for my family every step of the way. He was kind, caring, but also very realistic about what we could accomplish. The final judgement far exceeded my expectations. I honestly could not have asked for a better resolution. OP now has to pay a monthly child support and arrearage payment and must contribute to medical expenses. A considerable amount was also paid towards the arrearages and OP was responsible for my lawyers fees. When lawyers fee came up in court, the judge hearing my case stated that many other lawyers would have charged double what Scott did for his services. I cannot say enough good things about Scott and his team of paralegals. I understand that my case may be exceptional, but words cannot express the difference this lawyer and his paralegals have made in the my life and the lives of my children. If you have doubts about hiring him, DON'T. The only thing you will regret is not hiring him sooner.

Scott did an excellent job representing me with my case. He was professional and diligent in making sure that I got everything that I wanted in mediation. Anything involving the legal system can be very complicated, but Scott was very informative and gave great advice. Lucky for me, I was able to ...settle my custody case in mediation, instead of spending thousands of dollars for litigation. He spoke up, had my back and made valid arguments that ultimately lead to a win in court for me!! I will definitely be recommending Scott Schlegel to any friends in need of an awesome attorney!!
