Excellence

I am a Financial Advisor and most of my clients have done little or no estate planning. I know many attorneys in this field in my area and choose to refer to Scott because of the way he first teaches people about what estate planning is about, is specific on each document and explains in a way that i...s simple to understand. He has a very supportive staff and is very detail oriented. Having many attorneys to choose from, I chose him to do my own estate plan. Highly recommend him.

Excellent lawyer, great demeanor

I met with Scott in the spring of 2015 to discuss my end of life directives and other documents. He came highly recommended and truly lived up to his stellar reputation. Scott was knowledgeable, easy to speak with, and extremely professional. All of my questions were answered thoroughly and clearly. ...Additionally, his staff was extraordinarily helpful, very efficient and quite pleasant. I will definitely be using Mr. Dixon again and would recommend him to anyone who would like a good honest lawyer.

Knowledgeable and Kind

I found attorney Dixon very knowledgeable and passionate about his work. He is able to explain the legal documents and terms well, so they are easy to understand. He has a gift of putting people at ease, especially when talking and making plans for end of life decisions. I highly recommend him.
