Very Happy to Have Found Scott

I was not sure how I should handle my TSA NOV when it arrived so I let it sit for about 2 weeks during the holidays and then started to panic knowing that my response and/or payment was coming due soon. I luckily found Scott after a couple of internet searches and proceeded to read the reviews poste...d on this site. I was hesitant at first because it seemed just too good to be true. I reached out to Scott and he quickly replied with a phone call. I was pleasantly surprised at how professional and knowledgable Scott was on the TSA NOV game and was confident Scott would be able to help me after our first conversation. Within 48 hours of working with Scott my fine was severely reduced by the TSA, payment was sent, and my case closed. Cannot say how happy I am to have found Scott and would not hesitate to recommend to anyone that has found themselves in the same situation with a TSA NOV.

TSA NOV - Resolution

I hired Scott to resolve a TSA NOV - that I felt needed to be handled swiftly. Scott was responsive and effective in his communications. Our discussions were very helpful and information and highly effective. Scott knows the law, the processes, and what to expect with extreme confidence. The ...matter was settled within about a weeks time - which I found astonishing. I felt comfortable talking and communicating with Scott throughout the process. I hope I don't need Scott's services again - but would not hesitate to hire him again if the need were to arise. He is particularly good with these TSA NOV's.

The best Lawyer for TSA violations!

Mr Klippel got right on my case. He had my case with TSA settled for an extreme reduced amount. My case was settled within 2 days of contacting him. He was very professional and fast to respond to my email and calls. Mr Klippel makes your process painless and easy. He files all necessary paperwork fo...r you and emails the appropriate papers for you to fill out. I can’t thank him enough! Thank you Mr Klippel!

Delivered Exactly What He Promised

I contacted Scott after forgetting something I should never forgotten. If you're looking at this review, you know what that is. Scott was very clear on the process and what he will do during his representation. The issue played out precisely as he explained. He resolved my matter in a very timely man...ner. The outcome was exactly as he predicted. I am an attorney and I hire many attorneys as part of my job. I wish all attorneys were as clear and efficient as Scott. I strongly recommend Scott to take you through the NOV process.

Friendly and effective

I received a notice from TSA telling me to pay up to $3000 for carrying a pistol into an airport (not my brightest moment). After contacting a local lawyer for the court case he recommended Scott for the civil penalties. I contacted Scott on a Wednesday, we spoke, he stated exactly what would happen ...with my case and by the following Monday it was resolved. Hopefully I don't need his services again but wouldn't hesitate to call him again.
