great lawyer

He listened to me and helped me get exactly what I wanted. And then allowed me to make payments when my husband lost his job.

recommending an outstanding attorney

Scott Schweiger handled a bankruptcy and finalized the divorce case for our son and gave advise regarding probate court to our family upon the passing of our son. Scott was very kind and helpful to our family and he cares about the clients he represents.

Posted by anonymous | June 21, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Personal Injury

Very thankful

Mr. Schweiger was a wonderful attorney for me. I was involved in a personal injury and within 7 months he was able to obtain a settlement for me. Many cases tend to take years to resolve, so I felt very lucky. Mr. Schweiger was very attentive to my case and addressed all of my concerns. Many thanks... to him and his staff.

Hit By Drunk Driver

We are currently still negotiating our law suit but Scott has been very helpful in the process and negotiated successfully for my son and I but my husband had greater levels of injury and am glad we have someone helping us navigate through this process.

best lawyer ever

I was in an auto accident. My car was hit by more than one car. I was hurt. The insurance companies were offering really nothing. I hired Scott Best decision I could have made. I went to see 3 other attorneys before I went to Scott office. I liked him the moment I walked in. Great personality and... he really listened. He took time to explain everything as I had never been through anything like this before. He returned every single phone call and answered every question. I can honestly say Scott got me more money than I ever thought I would get. He is a great attorney. I highly recommend him. If you need an attorney Scott is the guy you should hire. I am so glad I did.
