This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Highly Recommended

I had the pleasure of working with Ben Scott as opposing counsel on a personal injury matter involving a construction site injury. Ben is a passionate Plaintiff’s attorney who truly cares about doing right by his clients. As opposing counsel, he was friendly and easy to work with but also a zealous a...dvocate for his client. He was professional and did not waste time on trivial issues or engage in ad hominem attacks. Not only is Ben a smart and knowledgeable attorney but he is also straight shooter. He has a very calm demeanor and articulates legal issues in a simple and concise manner, both orally and in writing. I truly enjoyed working with him and highly recommend him. If I ever need a PI attorney on my side, Ben will be the guy I call.

I reached out to Ben for advice on setting up my own law firm as he and I attended the same law school and he blogs on the topic. Ben is very professional and has been extremely helpful and generous with his time. He is very knowledgeable about his practice area, I would definitely refer my estate ...planning clients to him.

Living Trust

Ben walked us through the process of completing our Living Trust. He was professional, courteous, honest, and thorough. He took the time to answer our questions , and also explained and discussed in detail each concern we had. After 3 meetings we had easily set up our Trust, reviewed all papers, and ...received our completed Living Trust in binder form. Our experience was excellent.

Excellent Estate Lawyer

Ben was fantastic to work with in creating our Living Trust and Will. He was very thorough and meet with my husband and I three times to ensure that we were given time to think carefully about the decisions we were making. His pricing was excellent and was very responsive to our needs. He obtained... a copy of our deed of trust from the county saving us the time and effort. We now have the satisfaction of knowing that our family will be taken care of.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
