Excellent attorney and staff.

Scott set us up with an Estate plan. Scott was one of the nicest, down to earth, friendly, helpful, and professional people I’ve ever met. His staff was fantastic too. They were very thorough, detailed, and made the process for us very easy. I would absolutely recommend Scott and his staff for a...n estate plan or other business needs.

Professional and Competent

Scott MacDonald helped me obtain successful outcomes with legal matters over the past few years. He is very competent and professional, but combined that with a caring, personal touch. He was responsive to my needs, promptly returned calls and gave me as much time and attention as I required. He al...so identified and changed a clause in a contract that saved me money and potential future legal entanglements. I trust Scott MacDonald and highly recommend his law firm.

  • 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.
