Custody, and divorce

Scott helped me every step of the way. Very proud of the success he's done , and very blessed. He got me everything I wanted and was always just a phone call away with any questions I had

Couldn't have asked for anyone better

I got stuck between a rock and a hard place in my situation as was in need of help. Scott was appointed to be via public defender for a federal case and I could not have wished for a better lawyer and overall individual. He would show up for me while I was incarcerated on the weekend when he had time... and would also work around my work schedule to meet while I was not incarcerated. He extensively researched my case and talked to me like a human rather than another client. He's very kind and will tell you the situation whether it's good or bad and though it may not be easy to hear, it's what needs to be said. He absolutely went above and beyond my expectation for an attorney and overall a great human being. I would like to thank him for helping me get probation in a rough situation. He listened to all I had to say and at times took my mind off the situation by just having normal human conversation rather than a strict client/attorney conversation. I really couldn't have asked for better and would highly recommend him to anyone who ends up in need of a great attorney.

Extremely happy

Where to start, my case was a very long drawn out ordeal. 2 years for divorce and then a year long custody battle shortly after that. Mr Hamblin and his staff worked extremely long and hard during the entire process. Mr. Hamblin is extremely knowledgeable with family law. Any question that I had was ...answered promptly and honestly. I was never led on about anything or given false hope. Any time I had a "panic" moment Mr. Hamblin was quick to resolve and calm my nerves, believe me there was a lot. He was very patient with me and explained everything very thoroughly in language I could understand. Words cant express how truly grateful my family and myself are to Mr. Hamblin.

Best Lawyer in Mid Missouri!

I had recieved some felony charges and Scott fought it every single step of the way (and then some) to a jury trial and did so well, I was found not guilty on all counts! Ive had several lawyers in the past and he is no comparison to any of them. He is very knowledgable in every aspect of laws and th...e justice system. He is very articulate and explains things very well. You wont regret hiring him! Thank you!

Exceptional Representation

There are no words to express how grateful I am for the opportunity to be represented by Mr. Hamblin. I have enjoyed working with him and his assistant, especially through some of the most challenging moments of my life. Selecting someone to handle your case can be a very difficult decision to ma...ke, but even from the moment I arrived at the office for my consultation, I knew I had found the right attorney. Thank you so much for a positive outcome, Mr. Hamblin!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
