Scott Roberts Weaver

Scott Weaver did an excellent job with my fraudulent transfer case. Scott was very thorough in helping me understand the law, explaining my options, and controlling legal fees and costs. He genuinely had my best interests at heart and tried to resolve the case efficiently and expeditiously. We medi...ated the case prior to significant discovery or motion practice. Scott ignored the mediator’s admonition to settle for in excess of $200,000. During mediation, Scott came up with a creative legal argument. As a result of Scott ignoring the mediator and Scott’s creativity, we settled the matter for half the amount insisted upon by the mediator. In addition to settling for $100,000 less than the amount insisted upon by the mediator, the settlement saved me a fortune in legal fees and relieved me of the associated mental and emotional stress of continued litigation and trial. I would definitely hire Scott and his team again.

I would highly recommend Scott to anybody looking to litigate a complex real-estate or business issue. Not only did he excel in in all pre-trial phases, depositions, pre-trial motions, and negotiations, but when the case went to trial, he was the most prepared attorney in the room and expertly presen...ted our case while dissecting the primary defendant. We used Scott to litigate a complex commercial real estate and defamation claim with a cantankerous neighboring business/co-tenant . The other party was trespassing on our property, bullying our employees and other tenants, and spreading lies about our company. The landlord was of no help as he was scared of the tenant, had previously lost a lawsuit against the tenant, and locked into a 10 year lease with the tenant. Scott won most of the pre-trial motions and obtained an award of sanctions against the primary defendant and his counsel. Scott vigorously tried to find a settlement, but the other party refused any reasonable settlement offer. Eventually, we were forced to try the case. In court, Scott put on an absolute show. He quickly won the respect of the judge and stood out above all the other attorneys in the room. Scott was full of energy, quick to craft arguments on the spot, and his preparation showed as he expertly navigated the complex real-estate and defamation issues. Watching Scott cross examine the primary defendant was like something out of a movie. By the time Scott was through with the primary defendant, every person in the room was absolutely convinced that the defendant was a liar and a bully. Even the bailiff and the clerk were glaring at the defendant. Going into trial, it was unclear if we would win our claims because of all the conflicting testimony. By the time Scott made his closing argument, we were sure that we had won our case. Eventually, the judge ruled in our favor on every claim, and gave us more money than we ever expected prior to starting trial. Throughout the whole process, Scott was conscientious about our expenses and always had our financial interests in mind. He pursued many different paths to settle the case, but eventually, we were forced by the primary defendant to try our case to the court. I would easily choose Scott again to try this case and fully plan on using him for any future real-estate or business disputes that we may have.

I must admit I was a little skeptical that Avvo's low cost 15 minute lawyer consult could produce much. After all, most things that sound too good to be true really are too good to be true, right? Thus I was pleasantly surprised when I got a call from Scott Weaver and he answered way more question...s on way more real estate and landlord/tenant issues than I thought possible. This guy knows his stuff, and even better, knows how to communicate and tell you the things you need to know in a very effective way. He knows the law, knows people, knows about the rental and real estate businesses and I think he would be an excellent choice for any tenant or landlord or purchaser or seller in need of assistance. I know I will be calling him again next time I have any questions. I feel very fortunate to have contacted him and to have talked with him. Definitely got my money's worth, and more.

I got a call from Scott within 3 minutes of my submission. He was cordial and asked how he could help with my real estate matter, and I took him through the issue with enough background so he had the key talking points of our predicament. I asked him to be candid and to the point as I needed clear ...direction but more importantly to know what my options were. We covered a few scenarios and his advice was sound and he helped prevent me from doing something stupid, so I now have a clear plan on how to proceed and the call took less than 10 min. This was exactly what i needed and if I now need to proceed and require representation, I'll definitely call him and pay for his services. Thanks Scott!

I consulted Scott on a very complex landlord/tenant issue. He was very busy and had two pressing deadlines but still took a few minutes to answer a couple of questions. Most importantly, he explained that while he'd be "happy to take my money" (and I have no doubt he'd serve me well doing so) he ex...plained that attorney fees would quickly eat up any funds I might "win" in a suit. He basically explained that going the civil route would serve me best. Truthfully, I would have given him 5 stars if he would have answered just one more question when I asked, invited me to call him back, or offered to call me back after he reached his deadlines, but I was pleased nonetheless that he listened for a bit and gave me sound advice, rather than jump to collect an arm and a leg.
