Excellent Work

Margaret was an excellent attorney who helped and advised me in a very difficult situation. I was going through a rough divorce and child custody case. She answered every phone call I made even during her time off and if she didnt answer she was always quick to call back. She also kept me calm and al...ways reassured me when I was worried. She was able to win my case and I now have custody of my children thanks to her. Highly recommend this attorney. She is well worth it.

Excellent Lawyer Who Puts Children First

Margaret A. Scott represented me the past three years through a divorce and subsequent custody issues that went to trial. Margaret is extremely passionate about children and doing what is best for the children. She is definitely not motivated by money as she charges reasonably and worked with me w...hen I couldn’t afford everything. Over time, our case got large and complicated. She is very experienced, yet she was willing to seek the help of another key lawyer when it benefited our case. I think that one of the best qualities that I appreciated through this whole process was that I was able to talk to her directly at anytime. If you call her, she answers the phone. She answers your questions with honesty and up front with your options. She cares about you as a person. This is the type of lawyer that you want to add to your Christmas card list. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Thanks Margaret for making us a family!

Best Attorney

Margaret helped us in an adoption of a kinship(family Member). we owe Margaret more than Money can pay. We were in a situation that was virtually impossible and Margaret made sure we had our son one month after his birth. He was in a foster home where the mom was saying he needed a feeding tube and h...e was brain damaged. None of this was true. i dont know what would have happened to our son if he was there one day longer. We had a terrible experience with cps and Margaret protected our rights all the way through it. Every time i see my baby smile i think of how much i owe her. we plan on adopting more children and plan to have Margaret Scott as our Attorney. WE recomend her especially on tough cases> unlike other attorneys Margaret always returns your phone calls.

Custody/Child sipport

I had a very difficult child custody case that most lawyers couldn't handle, but Ms. Scott did a wonderful job. NO ONE could have taken care of me and my special needs child like she did. I would and have referred her to many friends who have all been extemely satisfied!!!

Divorce Lawyer

Margaret Scott is our divorce lawyer and has been so extremely helpful in explaining everything in detail and has been wonderful at following up with any questions we've had. She returns calls promptly and gets the job done. She represented my now-husband in his divorce and is going to represent hi...m again in going back to fight a few custody and child support issues. She suggested and is fighting for way more than we had ever thought of on our own. We are very grateful for her diligence and expertise. I've referred her once before and my friend was very happy with the outcome of her divorce as well. I would definitely recommend Margaret A. Quijano Scott again.
