Best Attorney In Southwest Florida

I have known Scott for over 7+ years and have used him multiple times for numerous cases! Most recently a divorce, and an stepparent adoption case. He treats his clients as family, and definitely is a shark if you ever have to go to court! Words cannot express how amazing he and his staff is! If I ev...er have a question, he’s the first person I go to! In my opinion he’s definitely the best attorney In Southwest Florida!

Exceptional Attorney

I hired Scott to do my Florida divorce and he did an exceptional job and got me a great settlement. His professionalism and understanding of the law is excellent. I highly recommend his services.

A strong legal counsel who cares about his clients

I hired Scott to represent me in my divorce in 2016-17. It was a very emotional process for me and, due to the circumstances, a situation that filled me with fear and anxiety. Scott did an excellent job at handling my case with both grace and efficiency. I am grateful for his ability to give logic...al and practical advice, while still having patience and empathy to listen when things get tough. Much like doctors, I think lawyers have a reputation for lacking a sensitivity chip. This is not the case with Mr. Faden. He was consistently a sounding board and a source of comfort and practicality throughout my time working with him. I feel lucky to have found someone to help me get through a painful situation without added tension or stress. Thank you!
