Knowledgeable and Expediate

Mr. Klippel handled my situation with the upmost respect. He is knowledgeable and experienced about TSA's rules and procedures. I was very impressed with his experience. Most federal rules, statues, procedures aren't always user friendly. Mr. Klippel can help walk you right throughout he process..., which takes burden off of you. Scott is a class "A" guy and would certainly recommend him for and TSA related issue. THANK YOU MR. SCOTT!!!

Perfect Representation

I found Scott's profile online for a business client that received a TSA NOV. Scott was knowledgable, professional, and experienced with TSA regulations and procedures. Scott satisfactorily resolved the client's case on the same day he was hired. This was an extremely stressful matter for the client ...but Scott calmed the waters and guided the client through, as advertised.

The Reviews Are Real

This review is real as well. Scott did what he said and when he said he would. His experience is validated by his knowledge and actions. If you are at all considering quickly getting a reduced TSA NOV, stop here and contact him. No BS and its over with faster than wondering what to do. No Charge for ...the consult and you'll get the facts as he knows them.

Worth Every Moment of My Time

As an extremely busy professional, I have no time to waste on frivolous endeavors. Scott made the TSA NOV defense process remarkably simple, saved me hundreds of dollars, and most importantly didn’t waste one second of my time. I could not be more impressed with the accuracy of his predictive knowled...ge and expediency of work. I would never have thought it possible to petition for reduce penalty, be granted a settlement and officially settle a federal government civil penalty in a matter of hours had I not experienced myself. If you’re facing the same TSA NOV as I did, do not hesitate to allow Scott to represent your interest for quick and efficient results.

Super easy process

Nothing is worse than the sinking feeling I got when I realized I had accidentally left my firearm in my bag at the airport. I immediately began looking into my options. I came across Scott on the internet and after reading MANY reviews decided to work with him to resolve the matter. Scott is EXTREME...LY responsive and VERY honest and upfront. From advising not only that I could handle it on my own, but explaining how to handle it. I chose to eliminate the headache of doing it myself and hired Scott. My case was legitimately resolved and handled within a matter of hours. Scott advised me prior to retaining him what the fee would be and even gave me a guarantee that if it surpassed his quote, he'd take it off of his fees. This reinforced to me that I could in fact handle it myself since it seemed standard practice that the TSA follows particular guidelines for reducing penalties, but let's be honest.. who wants to even deal with the headache? Was an extremely painless process and is now behind me. I'd definitely recommend him to anyone who finds themselves facing a notice of violation from the TSA. Thanks Scott.
