Awesome Divorce Attorney

I hired Scott in the middle of a messy divorce which included a messy custody battle and a fight over a few assets. He was very patient with explaining some of the legal mumbo jumbo to me and was super professional with my ex's lawyer. I am happy with the custody agreement and Scott remained fair i...n making sure our things were divided equally.
