Traffic Case

Attorney Scott Hanken was able to get my case dismissed. If I needed an attorney again for an area within his practice, I would not hesitate to call him and would of course recommend him to others. His assistant, Carrie, is also first rate. She was very knowledgeable and she made me feel confident th...at selecting Mr. Hanken for my lawyer was the right decision.

Outstanding

Mr. Hanken was outstanding! He answered all my questions and was extremely attentive and responsive. I highly recommend Mr. Hanken. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney.

Had done the impossible!

Scott was without a doubt the best lawyer I could have ask for. He had turned a no win situation in my eyes into a verdict I thought would have been impossible. He was very thorough and walking me through the process of what I needed to do and explained everything in a way that I could understand wit...h no problem. He kept in close contact with me whenever something needed to be updated and explain and made the process simple, even with the pandemic going on. Would recommend 100% for anything. Thank you Scott for all your hard work.

1st DUI

Love his passion and determination. Mr. Hanken knows the system! I absolutely chosen the right attorney for the job. Mr. Hanken is straightforward and doesn't hold back. He let's you know where you stand.

GREAT customer service

My husband had gotten in trouble AGAIN, for the SAME thing he was CURRENTLY on probation for. Scott had already handled that case, from PREVIOUSLY being hired by myself. Low & behold, he came through AGAIN, for a SECOND time, to SAVE THE DAY, & my husband’s probation was EXTENDED an additional 2 yea...rs. ANYONE looking to hire a GREAT lawyer, w/YEARS of experience, I say, CALL Scott ! He’ll work w/you, if money is the issue, he’s 1000% HONEST & STRAIGHT UP ! I don’t think we could’ve gotten better services from ANYONE else ! Thank you, Scott, & keep up the great work !!!
