He is not honest

Please do not work with him. He is not honest about whether he will take your case or not. He promised me he would take my case and strung me along for months (valuable time in a wrongful death case) before getting his junior associate to tell me he would not take the case.

scott glovsky work on autistic child's case

Scott did an incredibly good job on every aspect of case and was very accessable. He overcame many obstacles and was extremely generous with both his and his staff's time. He spent a gigantic number of hours on our case in order to get the best possible result, which was very good.

Scott Glovsky

More than a year after our daughter passed away after losing a battle with Anorexia, my wife and I decided to seek legal assistance for a case that we thought had merit. In essence, we thought that we had a case against the medical insurance company who discharged our daughter from the hospital when ...she did not weigh enough for an out-patient program. We contacted a few legal firms and were told that the Insurance Company had filed for Chapter X1 bankruptcy the day before our daughter died and we were turned down. A few months later, I received a call from Scott Glovsky who had worked for one of the firms that we had contacted, saying that he had started his own legal firm and had a personal interest in our case. Soon after, we signed an agreement in which Scott agreed to pay for all fees in exchange for a percentage of any settlement that we might receive. I realized right away that Scott was highly motivated and he possessed a work ethic "second to none." He quickly spent a significant amount of his own money interviewing witnesses, recording depositions and hiring expert witnesses. He also hired a legal assistant to help him with our case. Scott was always very sensitive to our emotions when talking about our case, and he politely asked if we would be interested in taking our story to the media. Subsequently, we were frequently asked to talk about our story on both local and national television. Then, about a year after we began the case, a judge issued a summary judgment against us virtually saying that we didn't have grounds for a lawsuit. However, Scott was so committed to our case, that he quickly filed an appeal, knowing that his expenses would increase significantly. Another year went by but Scott was relentless in pursuit of our case. An appellate ruling overturned the summary judgment and the State Supreme Court ended the appeal so that our case was back in consideration. Prior to going to trial, Scott was extremely thorough in his preparation for our case. He conducted mock trials with jurors, and his deposition summaries were very precise and understandable. During all of this, settlement discussions were held and initially they were terminated due to a lack of an agreement. However, during the week before trial the settlement offer increased significantly and a few days before the trial an agreement was reached. Even when this agreement was reached, Scott was very candid about his devotion to our case and was willing to go to trial. He left the final decision completely up to us. In summary, the experience was a very difficult ordeal as we were dealing with the loss of a beautiful daughter who had such a love for animals and music; however, throughout the ordeal Scott was supportive, kind, generous, and very professional. Given that description, I also found Scott Glovsky to be an outstanding attorney regarding his knowledge of the law and his ability to conduct a case. I would highly recommend Scott Glovsky.

Scott Glovsky has a heart

Our family worked with Scott over a four year period. I had never been involved in any kind of litigation before. Scott is a very warm, kind spirited person who always listened carefully and made sure we were comfortable with what was happening in our case. During depositions I always felt very su...pported and taken care of. Scott and his staff were very responsive whenever we had a question or called or emailed. Scott worked with our schedule and family logistics to make sure we had minimal travel or disruption to our family's schedule.
