Great Attorney!

I used Scott Weinberg for my Domestic Violence case and he was WONDERFUL! Scott got my case dismissed and did everything he promised he would. Do not believe the one bad review of this lawyer he is GREAT! I did not have all the retainer money for his firm up front and his office gave me a payment p...lan that was totally affordable and I payed it from my bank without any problems. I would recommend my friends and family to Scott Weinberg and his law firm.

"Everyone need an attorney who will go beyond measures to get the job done"

Scott Weinberg was my defense attorney in a domestic violence case. My husband and I had an altercation which resulted in my arrest. It was a very unique case, considering my husband was an illegal immigrant seeking a green-card. After being badgered and harrassed by my husband and his family, I lear...ned they were trying to build a case against me for domestic violence. When i went to court their were false statements and allegations in the police report. I realized it was time to hire an attorney. I searched the web to get legal advice. I found Scott Weinberg and he responded the very next day. We had a conference meeting. I explained to him my financial situation and how badly I needed his help. I expressed my profession as a health care worker and how this could debilitate my career. He was very understanding and compassionate. He worked out an affordable payment plan for my budget. He represented me in court very well and had all records expunged on my behalf. He is a great attorney that gets the job done. Knowledgable, conservative, professional, initiative, and compassionate with his clients. Not to mention you are guaranteed a laugh.WONDERFULL ATTORNEY!!!!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
