Effective result, would like better communications
Scott obtained the result I was seeking, but during the process I had to reach out to his office repeatedly for updates. I would like to have seen them proactively communicate with me through the process. Even when I called and expressed a desire to get an update in a week, I could hear that wouldn't...

Great Experience
They were very informative and professional. Kept me updated on what I needed to do. Attorney showed up earlier than the others for my case and had fewer clients so I felt more comfortable with his attention. Got my speeding ticket dismissed.

Speeding and traffic ticket lawyer | Dec 24
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
"Scott goes above and beyond for all of his clients. He is willing to go to trial and uses this to his advantage in resolving cases for his clients. I refer all traffic ticket matters to him."
"When I was the head prosecutor for all of the Montgomery County JP courts, I regularly interacted with Scott Markowitz as opposing counsel. He's a tremendously knowledgeable and conscientious attorney who always looks out for his clients. I found him to be a worthy adversary and someone I respect. Now that I'm in private practice, I routinely refer traffic ticket cases from Houston and Harris County to him because I know he will do a great job."
"I asked Scott to help with a client recently when a client who I represented on a felony had several class C violations in another county. He was attentive, conscientious, and a very good communicator. Those qualities not only made it easy to work with him, but also caused him to get a great result for our client. Scott is the (traffic) man. I endorse him."
"I refer all of my speeding/traffic ticket cases to Scott Markowitz. He knows the transportation code backwards and forwards, and is popular with court staff because of his affable personality and commitment to this clients."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. Scott is very diligent and attentive to his work. He is active in the affairs of the Municipal Bar Associations and keeps a strong pulse of the goings on in Austin regarding Municipal Justice Matters in Texas."
"Scott Markowitz is truly the "traffic ticket man.com". I have referred several clients to him and he has produced great results. I endorse this lawyer's work."
