About Scott
Biography
My personal injury practice is comprised primarily of automobile, bicycle, motorcycle, and pedestrian accidents. I represent only plaintiffs who have been injured due to the negligence of others. My personal injury fees are always based upon a percentage of the amount recovered for my clients, and I only receive compensation if I am successful in recovering money for my clients.

The best Lawyer
Scott not only understood we were having emotional issues besides the physical issues and was extremely careful to listen to us and address all of our questions (many). He got us an honest compensation in very little time. Our family highly recommends him and his office.
