Posted by Robin | April 26, 2026 | Hired Attorney | Ethics & Professional Responsibility

He has been suspended by the Florida Bar

Because of my complaint and many others he has been suspended for 3 years and has to pay retribution. He ruined my life and did not use my funds paid him to do work for me. He filed my case tonight and it was over and he led me on for over a year saying he could fix it. A segment will be on Fox News,... tonight, April 26, 2026 regarding his extreme failings and how he altered the lives of so many people.

Posted by Tracey | September 21, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Incompetent negligent, grossly irresponsible, inappropriate Neglect

WARNING: This attorney, licensed for 19 years, is grossly incompetent and fails to fulfill his duties. His inappropriate behavior and negligence have severely harmed my case, creating significant issues. He neglected to appear in court, failed to obtain necessary discovery documents on time, and prov...ided no assistance whatsoever. I was forced to hire additional attorneys and publicly expose his misconduct through Google reviews. He is unresponsive, with a 342-day period of inaction leading to his termination. His communication is nonexistent unless extreme measures are taken. Regardless of your identity, if you hire an attorney, they must uphold their oath to do no harm to their clients. Scott’s actions have caused me substantial harm, prolonging my case by another year, which has already dragged on for three years. Save yourself the frustration and seek representation elsewhere.

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.
