Adept Lawyer, Great Person

Rarely are the topics that Scott deals with pleasant. They are often the most intense and personal times in one’s life as you manage the emotional, financial and personal chaos that are family problems. We hired Scott for a multi-state custody and support matter. Not only was the outcome incredibly s...uccessfully for us, it was handled with an amazing amount of compassion, understanding, and intellectual skill. Scott is an incredibly adept lawyer. Almost as important, he understood and communicated what we needed to succeed and feel confident going forward even after the matter was resolved. He is a person we would recommend for any such matter going forward.

Best family law attorney in Austin

Scott was the 2nd family law attorney that I worked with. He took over my case mid-cycle and did a great job getting himself up to speed and closing it out. He was very attentive, responsive and gave me advice on next steps. I had a great experience working with Scott and plan to recommend him to eve...ryone that needs a family law attorney. He's honest, ethical and works with your best interest at heart. Cannot recommend Scott enough!

Best Family Law Practice in Texas

I used Scott for a divorce - not exactly a pleasant activity in life. Scott made me feel comfortable and helped me establish a plan, set my expectations appropriately, and handle the details and interactions of the case professionally - and personally. While admittedly it was a little expensive - I d...o in the end feel I had the best attorney possible for my situation - maybe even overkill - but I preferred that possibility over the possibility of "bringing a knife to a gun fight." I would - and have - recommended Scott and his law practice to friends and family over the years. 8 years later, I am still satisfied with the outcome of my divorce proceedings. Thanks, Scott - and excellent supporting staffing!

Outstanding attorney, a total professional

My divorce was very complicated, and I was lost as to how to proceed. My ex-husband had made me afraid to contact an attorney by continuously telling me I would lose custody of my children if we went to court to settle our divorce. After months of worrying and sleepless nights, I decided to contact a...n attorney, and through friends, I found the FMLT law firm and made a consultation appointment with Scott Milner. He was patient and understanding about the anxiety I had towards the process of divorce, always reassuring me while at the same time giving me realistic expectations of what could happen in every scenario of my case. I came to trust Scott to advise me in the right direction, and that trust quickly expanded to his extremely professional paralegals. His entire team openly communicated with me about everything they received from my ex-husbands attorney, and never left me in the dark about what was happening. We had to go to court twice, once for a temporary orders hearing I requested and again for the final divorce hearing to settle things, and each time Scott told me what to expect and helped me prepare so I never felt like I was leaving anything I didn’t absolutely have to up to chance. I was blown away by how well Scott handled himself in court. He was confident, professional, and remembered every important detail to my case. He was clearly well prepared for both court dates as well as mediation, and still made time throughout this process to check in and reassure me periodically. While I realize I was not his only client, he made me feel like I was whenever we met or spoke. I was encouraged by his confidence and obvious capability to handle anything that was thrown at him, and the final outcome was very favorable to me. He preserved my rights as a mother, and enabled me to keep my children in the best situation for them with regards to school. After a year working with Scott and his staff, I am confident that if and when my ex-husband takes me back to court, Scott will continue to be the best defense I could hope for to help me protect the best interest of my children. I highly recommend him, and his law firm as a whole.

Do yourself a favor, get good counsel.

My unsolicited testimonial here is my way of saying; "Thank You Scott, and to your old man". I like to think I am not afraid of too many things, - but going to court with an ex-wife made me nervous, fearful. Not knowing where to turn, I did a search of the internet. After reading the testimonia...ls on their website, I made the phone call. Scott Milner to the rescue. That's the man you want in your corner - heck, old man Milner can jump in if needed - he'll get the job done too. The staff were always friendly and helpful. I made the mistake of going to a court hearing once without counsel - never again - do yourself a favor get counsel, better yet, hire "A Great Attorney". Sincerely, JC ...
