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.
