utterly terrible and incompetent

Mr. Rowley was the worst attorney I have ever heard of anyone being cursed with. All he did was show up in court and sit there with what seemed to be zero knowledge of my case. He never even asked for one single thing as disclosure from the opposing party, not even uniform interrogatories, which are ...easy because they're already written for you. Then, after he insisted one of court dates be over the phone instead of in person, he was supposed to file a motion to dismiss and DID NOT ANSWER MY EMAILS FOR OVER FIVE (5) MONTHS!!! Then he tells me, after he hasn't done the slightest for my case, including responding to my emails about filing the motion, he tells me that not only is my retainer that was fully funded at the day of the telephone conference, but I in fact owe him more than two thousand dollars on top of that! I responded by asking to see a breakdown of the hours and fees to see where this money had gone and what work I was paying for, and instead of sending me a detailed invoice, he filed a motion to be removed as my attorney citing that I owed him money. The next business day. He completely failed to zealously represent me.

Experienced Family Attorney

Post divorce I needed to file for legal decision-making and child support. I didn't want to go back to my previous divorce attorney as he didn't communicate well and I felt he overcharged for his services. A friend recommended Rowley Law Group. Scott and I sat down together for a free consultation. H...e guided me through the specific steps to get to trial, and assured me I had a strong case, so I decided to hire him. From the start, Scott was very helpful. If I ever had a question or had any anxiety about the upcoming hearings or trial, Scott was immediately available, telling me what to expect and assuring me he would be there to protect my interests. I also greatly appreciated that he went to bat for me against my ex. Anytime there was abusive behavior and/or my ex wasn't following the court order, Scott was quick to respond on my behalf in a direct, stern, but professional manner. He was knowledgable, experienced with the court, and ahead of schedule in submitting my petition and responses to the court. In the court trial, Scott was prudent and well organized; He gauged what would be important to the judge, condensed all the evidences into what was effective, efficiently used our time on the stand, and in making our closing argument. Afterwards, he gave me his assessment of how he thought the trial went i.e. what was effective, unusual or what might be good or bad for us. I appreciated his honest opinions. In the end, I was awarded what I asked for and then some thanks to Scott and his team. 10/10 would recommend

Unmatched courtroom skiils

My rating would be a 4.5 as I believe client communication could be improved. Possibly because through experience Scott knows what's important and what isn't. Without hesitation I would say his courtroom skills are in the upper percentile and are very impressive.
