Stress free

I needed assistance with some issues that came up with my step-daughter. I never thought that I would need a lawyer for anything. But I'm glad that I had Scott to assist me through the process. I was very nervous about everything that was happening, but Scott made me feel very comfortable. Everything... went smoothly!

He really knows his stuff.

Scott Robbins came highly recommended to me by a former client of his. My expectations were achieved. He takes his time to make sure he thoroughly knows your case, he knows the law and gave me personal attention when I needed it. It may take him a few days to call you back, but that is understandabl...e because he has other clients but when he is focused on your case, you get his full attention. No doubt about that. I highly recommend his services.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
