Scott Thomas Moorey

I hired Jill Prenger from the Scott T Moorey firm. I was charged with assault with a deadly weapon without intent to harm and should’ve been charged with a misdemeanor firing a weapon within 1000 feet of a residence. Jill charged me $9000 to take the case and in the six months she was working on it.... I probably talked to her a half a dozen times. Every time I call her, I would get a response from an assistant or a paralegal and the case drug out for six months and I ended up in theworst case scenario I could. Jill never came out to the scene of the incident which was only about 10 miles from her office and was told that we had a deal that I would serve four years probation and have my second amendment rights taken away for four years. At the end of the four years, everything was supposed to be dropped or adjudicated and life would go on. When we got to the hearing, I could not hear the judge very well I was having a hearing aid problem, which the VA ordered new ones the very next day for me and the next thing I know Jill takes my wife and I out into the lobby and says either the judge didn’t like the way I looked at him or I answered the question too slowly I was in shock. I am a US submarine veteran with a cleann criminal record. I ended up losing my second amendment rights for life and ended up being a felon for life, which was nowhere what the deal was supposed to be walking into hearing. I told Jill when I paid her the 9000 for that kind of money I expected the expertise of the entire firm . As far as I know, no one else in the firm ever worked on the case and again the whole six months I probably spoke to Jill half a dozen times. as we left the hearing again, I was in shock after the charges were changed and we got out in the lobby. Jill said I hate to cut you short, but I have another appointment. We have not heard from her since. It was if she just tried to destroy our lives again no criminal arrest record no citations and I am 73 years old. I get a felony for life when I’m supposed to get one for four years Stay away from this firm and of all things stay far away from Jill Prenger.

I hired Scott when I was concerned with a criminal felony complaint being filed against me. Never being in the criminal justice system this was extremely stressful and intimidating. Scott provided the needed advice and action to get involved early to avoid any embarrassing police encounters and pro...vide legal services to have my situation reviewed in a more truthful was than what was initially perceived. Scott and his office was available 24/7 and he always responded in a timely manor and treated me like an individual not a number. After navigating me through the initial process of my situation Scott referred me to another attorney as he saw potential conflict of interest concerns and referred me to another great attorney. But his initial counsel and his ability to navigate through the the local legal system set up a very favorable outcome to my case ...I highly recommend Scott and his office to anyone who needs a criminal attorney. For me, as I said a first timer in the legal system, his assurances and knowledge were critical in calming down my stress level and ultimately having the case dismissed.

My husband and I were arrested due to a misunderstanding with our neighbors. Mr. Moorey and Mr. Dunford were available immediately and explained the legal system and what we could expect. They were proactive and started working on the case right away. Rather than taking a traditional approach, the at...torneys went straight to the source and resolved the case immediately. All charges were dismissed for both of us. Hard work and experience along with thinking outside the box got the job done. Thank you Scott and Lance.

Each of us has a fire in our hearts for something. For Scott Moorey that is the practice of criminal law. He went above and beyond to help me in the horrible predicament I was in due to my own faults. In January 2014, I was arrested for drugs, both a misdemeanor and a felony. Another attorney r...epresented me for a lot of money and what I felt was just the minimum of assistance. He was hard to get a hold of and seemed to brush over my concerns of an illegal search. I was given community service and six months of probation. Then I did something really stupid. I was caught for burglary and grand theft, a total of five felonies plus misdemeanors. This time I researched different attorney’s and really liked what I heard and read about Mr. Moorey. When we met, I found Scott to be thorough, no-nonsense, a “cut-to-the-chase” kind of attorney who laid out every scenario for me. He was honest, extremely professional and very dedicated to obtain the best outcome in my case. He came across as being completely genuine and sincere in applying his skills to help my personal legal situation. I was very nervous but felt hopeful and reassured after meeting with Mr. Moorey. I was kept informed on the progress of the case throughout the process. The response time to our questions was prompt and the information given was very complete. In court, the results were better than I expected, especially no jail time. My expectations were surpassed. I am remorseful for what I did and have a lot of work ahead of me for a long time: community service, classes, fines, costs and a very long probation in addition to my job and schooling. But, NO JAIL TIME which was a very real possibility. I am eternally grateful to Mr. Moorey, my parents and my special girl for being there for me. I promise to make them proud . Mr. Moorey I hope I never have to call you again but I will certainly recommend you to someone in need of your services. Thank you, Lance and your staff for all you did. Ryan

Mr. Moorey was oustanding in every way. He and his staff handled my case with the utmost professionalism. Mr Moorey explained every step of the process in detail, set expectations upfront, remained in constant communication and resolved my case in an efficient timeframe. Best of all...outcome exce...eded the potential outcome stated upfront...which was as good or better than other attorneys I interviewed. That's not all. Mr Moorey and his staff went above and beyond and resolved issues that I was not even aware existed and no other attorney mentioned. He succesfully challenged and had dismissed the evidence which could have haunted me for years down the road. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE, EFFICIENT, AND PROFESSIONAL!!!
