Sanity found in what seemed like chaos.
An event that happened recently left me in quite a large pickle. After trying to figure out a plan I soon found out I didn't know what i was doing. After searching for legal advice from family and friends, I was refered to Scott by 2 different individuals. After my first meeting with Scott all my previous judgement of lawers was thrown out the window. Scott insured me he had my best intrests in mind, and prooved this to me on multiple occasions. Scott gave me the outcome I couldn't even ask for. "We all make mistakes, we just need to learn how to never make them happen again." Scott Anderson.

Great Lawyer!
I hired Scott because he was very experienced and had great reviews. The entire process went very smoothly and it was very hassle free for me. He always kept me in the loop and called me to give me updates on things, and also was very time flexible. I am a very busy man and he made everything very simple for me. Not to mention, he beat my Revoked License and Hit and Run case and erased everything off my record. Thank you!!!

Traffic Offence
I couldn't be happier with how Scott Anderson handled my case! My first brush with the law, I was scared, nervous and worried to go to court. Talking with Scott about my case, he completely put me at ease. He is extremely personable and professional. When all was said and done, he was able to settle my case without us having to appear in court at all. I highly recommend Scott Anderson!

Awesome lawyer
I recently hired Scott Anderson as my lawyer, and I have to say I am really glad I went with him! He was so helpful and very understanding about my situation. He didn’t judge about what I was going through. He was very informative and laid everything out in honesty and truthfulness. Never sugar coated anything. I respect him as a lawyer and a human being for being so honest and understanding, and helping me get through my court issues. I recommend him to anyone, and if I have anyone that needs a good honest lawyer I will be referring them to him 100%
