Scott Michael Forrester

Do NOT use this office for anything! Once you give him your money, you're finished! Very little communication, he missed important deadlines, and he filed incomplete documents with the court causing me much trouble and time off of work to fix his errors. In fact, after correcting several of his mista...kes and listening to him tell me that he has no respect for bankruptcy filers, I fired him and hired another attorney. His attitude reflects that which clearly shows he has no respect at all for his clients, especially those filing BK. In this very trying time, you will need clear guidance, honesty, and support from your attorney. Scott Forrester does NOT provide any of these things. More trouble will follow if you hire him. Hire someone else. Hire someone else and protect yourself! You are ultimately responsible for the outcome of your BK. Remember that.

I hired him to advise and oversee possible bankruptcy.. He asked if I wanted to keep my business. I said emphatically yes. He said file chapter 7 because Chapt. 11 would demand money back and take four years to restructure. I said I wanted to rebuild the business and didn't know why it failed. h...e never said the business I own that is incorporated would be considered an asset to be sold off by the Trustee, or that someone could offer to buy it. That is what happened. Two years later, I have to rebuy the business or have it auctioned off. His response was threatening, totally false and defamatory. He said I was eighty years old, was diagnosed with dementia, all untrue. He called the incorporated business a pyramid scheme I did not own. There is more, but this lawyer badly advised me. I am not blaming him for my bankruptcy. I blame him for his bad advice that cost me and is still not resolved. The pro bono lawyer represented me and said I should never have filed a chapter 7 and withdrew just now because it has taken 2 years though discharged, and he can't work for free anymore though he tried to get me the justice I deserve, but I don't have the funds to rebuy my business. This is not spite, but my honest summary of the consequences of his bad advice. Others have made bad reviews, but they disappeared from his profile. His response to my complaint is false aggressive. I have dementia and am 80 yrs. old, and I don't own the business, that we retained him three years ago. All falsehoods. He responded he would sue me if I don't take down this review. I blame him, not for the personal financial problems for which I hired him, but for telling me to file the wrong bankruptcy, then refusing to advise the court of bad conduct by a creditor who now wants to buy the business from the Trustee, unless I rebuy it from the Trustee.

at first I was reluctant to file, but Scott made me feel good about filing, and gave me the courage to go through this process that I knew I needed to do. They were very thorough and answered all my questions promptly. Made a stressful time in my life a lot better and so happy that I am now debt fr...ee.

Deciding to file bankruptcy was not easy for me, I was embarrassed & even humiliated. But after meeting with Scott those feelings were gone, he helped me understand that things happen & it isn't a reflection of the person I am. He allowed me to make payments to him that didn't break my budget & expla...ined every step of the process to me so I never had questions. My bankruptcy was discharged in the middle of May. I have already started to build me a POSITIVE credit history by obtaining a credit card AND I was able to purchase a new car in MY own name! I have reached the light at the end of my tunnel & it's an amazing place to be! I sleep, I no longer worry about who's calling when the phone rings! I'm enjoying my life, I'm more relaxed and truly have a lot more fun with my kids because of it. Thank you just doesn't seem like enough to say to Scott!!!
