Scott J. Longton is a professional, kind and knowledgeable Child Support Specialist attorney. He truly ensured me that he will do his best for the welfare of my daughter in getting her what she needed. When my daughter and I first went to Scott's office, he said, "She is not to be left behind". From that statement, I knew he was the right attorney for me.

Family Law is about more than divorce. There are a lot of different aspects that can be covered under “Domestic Relations.” At Longton Law Offices, we understand that there are many people involved in the process, and that it can be stressful.
Being involved in a car accident can have a devastating toll on your daily life and that of those around you. It can also be a traumatic, life changing event, that must be handled carefully and properly.
Did you know that with many criminal charges, early involvement of an attorney could lead to a much more favorable outcome, including the possibility of a dismissed charge?

Scott Longton is a very professional and amazing attorney. Not only is he skilled in the law but he is also compassionate and empathetic when emotions are high. He fought extremely hard for me and consulted me in difficult matters; telling me what I needed to hear (even if I did not want to hear it) and was always there for me as my attorney and a friend. He cared very much for my child’s well being and future as much as mine. He did everything possible to work with opposing council (ex wife’s attorney) even when they we’re extremely difficult and did not back down when they became aggressive. Scott Longton is the family attorney for my entire family in various matters from business to separation and custody. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Scott Longton!

Child custody
I would most definitely recommend Scott. In my case I had a nasty child custody case which Scott was able to help me before, during and after custody. Always went above and beyond. The ladies in the office was extremely helpful. I will most definitely recommend and will use him again

I Highly Recommend Him
Longton! Thank you for successfully mediating my ex's latest claim; the sixth of a few more, I'm sure, lol. To everyone else: Scott Longton did all the things good lawyers are supposed to do, and I was particularly happy with how both judges involved in the matter responded to him - with obvious mutual respect between them all.

Excellent representation, money well spent
I couldn't bee more satisfied with Mr. Longton's representation. He was attentive to the needs of the case. I have dealt with other attorneys in the past who were not as attentive. Mr. Longton fought for my rights and for my children. I can say that I now sleep better at night because they are safe. This was money well spent.

A lawyer who will truely work for you.
A good lawyer is hard to come by these days and in Mr. Longton i had found a Great lawyer. In an unexpected turn of events in my busy life and in needing a great lawyer my friend turned me to Mr. Longton. He may have costed alittle more then other lawyers, but he is worth every penny. He made this terrible process and transition in my life go by so smooth. Mr. Longton was always informing me, guiding me, there when I needed him, would call me back if I left a message, and would always fight for what I was looking for. What i liked most about Mr. Longton is that he would tell me the reality and not try to "sugar coat" anything. He was really working for me. In the end I was more then pleased and recommend him to anyone. If you want a real lawyer, look no further. You get what you pay for and more.

Divorce and Parenting Time
Scott is an AMAZING lawyer. I needed more just some lawyer to represent me, I needed guidance. I had no idea what I was doing and was totally scared. He explained everything in detail so I was clear what actions were be being taken during my case. He was always available or able to answer my questions through his wonderful staff and my questions and concerns were addresses promptly. He's a family man and that shows in his practice. He cares about his clients and the children especially. I couldn't have chosen a better lawyer and I recommend him to everyone I know.

Lifesaver!! Treated me like family. Went above and beyond
I can't speak highly enough of Scott! I think he's awesome. He has represented me on multiple occasions and each time I have thanked my lucky stars! Scott worked hard each time and the outcomes of my cases always put me in the winners circle. He is kind, understanding, and vigilant. He knows the law, is prepared, prompt and professional. Scott and his staff were always there for me, pretty much holding my hand the whole way through. He listens with an understanding heart. He never made me feel like I was a bother, even though I felt like I was at times. His fees were way below what I know other attorneys would have charged. He DID NOT charge me every single time we spoke on the phone or in person! I think Scott was wonderful and did a Great job. I got what I wanted out of my cases and would use him again in a heartbeat!

I would highly recommend Scott Longton
Scott represented me in my divorce. He was very professional as to knowing my case very well, and keeping me apprised as to what was happening. I would definitely hire him again, and recommend him to my family and friends. He took the time to hear my concerns and treated my like family.

My Go-To Lawyer
I've used Scott for the past three years and he has always been reliable and dependable. I would not hesitate to recommend him for friends and colleagues.

Exceptional attorney, exceptional results
Scott has handled my divorce, custody and criminal cases with ease. I couldn't be happier with the service and results he has provided me. He communicated with me clearly throughout the entire process so I would know what to expect and his advice was priceless. You definitely get what you pay for. He was always on time to court dates and he never ceased to amaze me while court was in session. You definitely want Scott representing you. I will continue to use Scott for all future legal matters.

Patient, and explained every step of the way.
I went into this thinking it was going to be a disaster. Won't go into details, but my (Now ex!) wife is one of the most masterful spinners of fiction I have ever met, and as a result, I thought I was going to be one of those fathers that got to see their child only on every 6th Tuesday of July.
Mr. Longton was upfront with me about everything, and when I didn't understand something he was saying (it happened more than I would like to admit) he explained it until I did. He worked with my sometimes hectic schedule, and when it did come down to meeting with "the other side" I knew what to expect .... and I was wayyy more comfortable than I thought I would be as a result.
In my case it worked out much better than I expected. The "parenting time" ended up being better than I could have hoped for, and under the circumstances (come on it was a divorce) I couldn't be happier. I would suggest anyone finding themselves in need of a divorce lawyer give this one some serious consideration.
Mr. Longton, thank you, and please don't take this the wrong way, but I hope I never have need of your (excellent) services again!

There is no better lawyer!!
I came to Scott Longton back in July 2014. He was highly recommended by many! From the first time meeting with him, I knew that he would be the one to fight for me. I have been in court, fighting for my kids for 9months now and Scott wins every every hearing for me. Every time that I need to get ahold of him, his staff is great about communicating. Scott always returns my phone calls promptly. He is also in the best interest of your family, not just making money. He constantly tries to handle things on his own time so that I am not charged the atrocious amounts that other lawyers will charge you. Me being a single mom of three children, Scott is always going above and beyond to make sure that we are safe and taken care of. I really could go on and on about what a life saver Scott Longton has been to my life. I will be forever in his debt for all he has done for me.

Scott Longton is an exceptional Divorce Lawyer
Scott and his team of experts handled every aspect of my divorce. Without him I have no idea where I would be today. He was honest, professional and communicated with me every step of the way. He understood that my main objective was to get out of the marriage with as little damage done as possible to our children. Our kids were able to spend time with his in office therapist and were able to really speak their minds without being in the middle of the chaos. Scott Longton and his office were all wonderful to work with especially in such a difficult situation.

great attorney
I hired Scott for my divorce and it was a bad situation. I was pregnant and emotional and had been screwed by my previous lawyer. Scott and his staff were amazing. He helped me and got me a good deal and was so informative and friendly.
