Character

How anybody can represent someone dead set on keeping a child away from someone willing and able to be there is the 2nd cruelest thing you can do. The 1st being his client, who wishes to use a child as a weapon and lie lie lie about everything.

This review is from an opposing party in a custody case, not a client or someone that consulted the firm for legal advice. The decision by a parent to file a request to suspend or restrict parenting time is difficult. If such a request was filed, I can only say that a child’s physical or mental health was at risk. Possible causes could include criminal activity, substance abuse, and/or mental health issues. If you find yourself concerned about the safety of your children while in the care of the other parent, please reach out to Bieniek Law. We can discuss the actions you can take to protect your children, which might include a request to temporarily suspend or restrict parenting time.

Child Centered

I just had my first conversation with Scott. I was very impressed with his desire to do what is in the child's best interest.

Criminal defense outstanding

I hired Scott Bieniek for myself due to having gotten in trouble for a 3rd OWI and needed to have some respresentation. Now I never heard of him or had any talk about him. Just was walking around outside of courthouse and found his office on the square and I am so so glad that I found him. I don’t be...lieve I could have hired a better attorney for the upcoming court hearing and the trouble I had gotten in. He really took the time to listen to me and explain as well how certain things worked and how the outcome could potentially be. Very well mannered and also talks to you on lamens terms as well. We all know you want a professional in the courtroom and a buddy in a sense outside of there to put you in check every once in awhile. He worked with me and explained all outcomes and what he could offer. I would have to say for the money that I paid and the service I gotten I couldn’t beat it anywhere else. He is very smart and knows the law like the back of his hand. Also if there is something he does not know, trust me he will research and find out exactly what it is and all possibilities. I want to thank him very much for working for me and doing suck an excellent job. Also Cassie in the office is very great at handling matters and considerate.

Definitely would recommend

After having consults with 2 other attorneys, I was able to retain Scott almost immediately after meeting him. Not only are his prices lower then most, he is an excellent, compassionate attorney. He was very easy to contact and always had quick responses. As far as representation, he fought for me an...d my rights. I was in a paternity/custody situation. He is very respected among other attorneys as well. I have recommended him to all my friends or colleagues who need legal assistance. Thank you Scott!

Establish Paternity & Gain Custody Case

Exceptional attorney!! Scott cares about the people he represents and was very helpful in the process to help me get custody of my son. Even met with me out of his normal business hours due to my work schedule. Very friendly and easy to talk to. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a ...attorney.
