Thoughts on Scott Kramer

Scott Kramer is a professional and personable attorney whom I would highly recommend to others. I have noted several qualities in his work style and in his office on which I make this recommendation. When I first chose to pursue bankruptcy, I had a specific idea in mind of the kind of attorney I ...wanted to retain. Scott was one of the first recommendations made to me. This told me he had a good reputation. Scott’s in-office appointment manner is a confident combination of straightforward talk and clear client respect. He puts one at ease with how he mixes the business of the law with a comfortable conversational style. I considered bankruptcy for quite awhile before actually proceeding, and had initial concerns that the process might be a cold exercise in legal actions and paperwork. Scott is very effective at communicating steps to take and needed information in the context of a comfortable, sometimes-humorous atmosphere. His effectiveness took much of the potential “coldness” out of the equation. Scott openly welcomes calls and emails. I had many of both, and he was always promptly responsive and patient with my inquiries. His willingness to stay connected with me in these ways further contributed to my peace about how my case was being handled. Regarding patience – during my own experience I was late from time to time in providing requested documents or responding to information requests. I also had a late-in-the-process change in my filing orientation. At no time throughout my experience was there ever any expression of irritation or frustration. I certainly could have completed my formal filing much sooner had I handled my own tasks sooner or better. Scott was continually gracious throughout my own delays. Scott’s office staff reflects these same characteristics of Scott himself. For me and (I’m guessing) for others, the bankruptcy experience can be a difficult and potentially demoralizing time. The staff, like Scott himself, consistently interacted with me in respectful and empathetic ways. I realized over time that the staff, by the way they did things, was helping to create assurance in me almost to the degree that Scott himself was doing. Finally, Scott was willing to provide referrals to other attorneys outside his own scope of practice. During my bankruptcy process, I had a need for a different kind of attorney, and Scott made a recommendation to me on which I ultimately followed through. That other attorney proved a great help to me, validating the quality of Scott’s recommendation. And while recommendations or referrals may seem to some to be just a normal part of professional conduct, I looked upon Scott’s recommendation and the subsequent productiveness of it as another extension of his client-focused manner. Scott will serve anyone well who has a need for bankruptcy counsel and representation.

Scott Kramer Feedback

When I went for a consultation concerning my situation, Scott was frank and upfront about what my options were. I was appreciative that he spent the time I needed to make decisions on what I wanted to pursue. Scott gave me personal recomendations with my LLC which was much appreciated. It is obvio...us he is very knowledgable with his subject matter and I appreciated that he has been responsive to all my questions. Scott is very busy but he will respond to your email requests fairly quickly. I at times asked him very specific information, many things I do not know how they work and still have some further clarifications I need as we go further into the process. I have found Scott to be trust worthy and approachable. I apprecaite both characteristics.
