Joseph is Wonderful - Very Difficult Case!

Joseph Scott helped me through a difficult divorce and guardianship case, and I can’t recommend him enough. He showed real compassion for all of my children—whether still at home or already grown—and always considered how the process would affect them. He gave clear advice, knew the court system insi...de and out, and was great about working with me to keep costs down. He even set up a fair payment plan, which made things so much easier. Truly a kind, empathetic, and knowledgeable attorney.

Incredibly Helpful!

Joseph was incredibly helpful in my divorce case! He helped make what could have been a painful process so much easier. I always understood exactly what was going on, he explained things in a way that wasn’t a bunch of legal jargon, and I always felt in the loop on when important dates were happening.... He and his team were easy to get ahold of for questions and their portal made sending and receiving documents so easy. Joseph was kind but gritty when needed. I ended up very happy with how my case was settled; it was fast, painless, and I felt like the resolution was fair. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for an attorney!

PREDATOR IN AN UGLY SUIT

This guy uses his position to prey on women, and he needs to be stopped. He only became a lawyer so he can manipulate his clients and employees into sleeping with him. He’s not even respected in the courts he practices in. Ask another lawyer or honestly anyone in Springfield what they think of Josep...h Scott and you’ll get stories of him being disgusting in one way or another. DO NOT HIRE THIS MAN

Fantastic Attorney!

Joseph has helped me with two cases including an adoption case and a custody modification. He was absolutely great to work with and always very responsive. He fought for me and was aggressive when he needed to be. He represented me very well in court. I highly recommend him as an attorney. My cust...ody case was a very difficult one. He was very transparent and did not sugar coat, but was also very reassuring at the same time.

Criminal Defense

Joseph Scott was my attorney for a criminal charge in Christian county. He was amazing!! I called his office twice and both times he returned my call. He is a very intelligent and capable attorney. I would give him 5 stars across the board! If you're in trouble HIRE this guy!!

  • 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.
