Highly Recommend

I would highly recommend Scott not only for his legal expertise in domestic court but because he really does care about what happens to you and your family. I had a case that was dragged out by my ex and he was there every step of the way. He listened to my concerns and always communicated ahead of t...ime what I should expect.

Extremely Poor Communication

This attorney was a very poor communicator - ignoring numerous emails and questions and very often ignoring requests for a short phone call. When he did respond it was short and incomplete. He pushed much of his communication to his associate attorney.

Scott is who you want to handle your divorce

I "fired" my first divorce attorney and went through 3 additional consults before I found Scott. His experience and rapport with the courthouse staff gave me a tremendous advantage in our case. He walked me through my options during each piece of the divorce, and was able to secure me a settlement th...at went far beyond my expectations. Sharp-witted, kind, firm, and not someone that the other counsel wanted to mess with; I couldn't have crafted a better lawyer. Recommend.

AWFUL

I was ignored and poorly advised at every turn. He refused to negotiate with opposing counsel when we had a distinct advantage (due to a signed agreement yet to be ruled on.) opting to litigate the case at trial. This would have been alright except he hadn’t prepared at all. I was forced to outsource... research, and even prepare affidavits myself that were never looked at, much less filed. Nor were any responses filed to their false and disprovable claims, subjecting me to constant harassment by my ex. I was told that we would address it at trial. Fine. I was never kept informed of any developments, ignored any time I had concerns, and forced to hunt down witness names and info myself. Also fine. But they never issued subpoenas or entered a witness list to the court. The day before the trial was scheduled, the opposing counsel had subpoenas, witness lists, and filings. Scott Rosenthal had issued no subpoenas or witness lists, looked over none of the documentation refuting their claims, and HAD DONE NOTHING TO PREPARE FOR TRIAL AT ALL!!! Whether it’s incompetence, disinterest, or laziness, I couldn’t say. . At that point he demanded we settle that day at an extreme disadvantage. He pushed me into a terrible agreement, ignoring me and even talking over me when I told him what I was ok with, glaring at me anytime I voiced concerns. I wound up with tremendous debt and less money than I had been receiving in support. DO NOT MAKE MY MISTAKE!!

Highly Recommend

Scott was recommended to me by a friend and I hired him as my divorce attorney. I found him to be open, honest, professional, and easy to work with. Scott is very knowledgeable and is well respected by his peers and counsel. He was quick to respond to voice and emails. i was very comfortable wor...king with him and felt he always had my best interest in mind. Staff is great too! I would hire him again!!

  • 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.
