BEWARE!!!!!!!

Bad advice, no advice. Incompetent and rude staff. He submitted information to the court that was different than what we submitted to him. Continues to withhold our case file. His lack of advice has cost us $20K and still counting. I could go on......... Since our case is still ongoing with a new a...ttorney, I am forced to post this review anonymously. But Forrester knows who we are.

First of all, I am sorry your case unfolded as it did, I know it was tough for you. however, this review was posted anonymously for a reason because the client knows there is no truth to it. This is an example of what happens when you are not honest with your attorney.

Simply the best

Such an incredible experience at this firm, they were great in Court and despite that other attorneys told me I couldn’t file, this firm found a way!

Great Results

Our case went as smooth as I think it could have. Thought it was going to be a painful process but was never really stressed as a result of Scott’s representation. Happy I filed and happy I went with this firm
