Sr Account Executive

Scott has amazing knowledge, conviction and most importantly develops a solid strategy on how to win cases. He keeps you informed through the process and isn't out to win just for winning, he strives for a far and just solution. If you are looking to be vindictive this is not your guy. If you're look...ing for justice Scott is your man. As a male he enabled me to win custody of my daughter, a monumental feat that I thought could never be accomplished at the beginning. Scott took the time to counsel me on what needed to be done to win the case.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2025.

Reprimand issued in IA, 2025

updated on 12/09/2025

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
