Scott Klippel

Working with Scott was a real pleasure. He took as much of the headache out of getting a TSA Notice of Violation as he possibly could, and he significantly reduced the civil penalty from the TSA offered. From our very first conversation, I trused that Scott had my best interests at heart and that h...e knew what he was doing in working to resolve my TSA NOV. Scott communicated regularly with me about the process and never took more than a couple hours to reply to emails or phone calls. When the TSA NOV fine came through, Scott was able to get the TSA to settle for less than a quarter of their initial request. The information that Scott provided will also help me avoid ever having to go through this again.

I tend to be a skeptic when hiring and or dealing with people and companies on line. Especially those who reside in other countries. But Scott put me at ease from the very beginning, both with his knowledge of the subject at hand, and his quick and concise explanation of exactly what I had just gon...e through without even having heard my story. It is rare to run across, and or do business with someone of his caliber for such a reasonable fee. After speaking to him the first time I felt he and his abilities and knowledge were "too good to be true" so I followed up on some of the reference sites and found that he was indeed legit. He not only met, but exceeded my expectations and hopes by reducing my fee significantly, and more importantly keeping up to speed with constant communications throughout the very short process. He literally took and issue that would have taken me weeks to maneuver through, and completed the task within just one day, and for less than I would have been able to negotiate for. Just not enough room here for how much I appreciate him for taking away the stress and dread so quickly!! Don't be a skeptic, you can trust this guy!

TOTALLY IMPRESSED When you find yourself on the "wrong side of the law" with a stupid mistake, it's common to try to figure out how to lessen the blow of a sledge-hammer fine. That's exactly what Scott Klippel was able to do for me. In less than 6 hours after I contacted Scott (I may be the ex...ception), Scott contacted me via phone and comprehensively quizzed my circumstances to characterize my error, contacted TSA (* save yourself the headache, do not respond to TSA yourself, Scott will do all the legwork *), negotiated a settlement 1/4th of the original fine level, so that I could pay the fine via internet. DONE same day! Scott's "bedside manners" are impeccable, he knows exactly what needs to be said (and unsaid) so just let him guide you for the fastest and best resolution possible. He's been on both sides of the situation (4500+ times on the TSA side) so you're in good hands, start to finish.

Mr. Klippel Wass very thorough and professional from start to finish. He explained my situation and the process very clearly. He then proceeded to obtain a very good result for me in a surprisingly short period of time ( same day!). I was greatly relieved to have had this resolved and behind me an am...ount that was better than what TSA offered and was done almost instantly. Recommend him highly.

In September of 2021, I mistakenly brought a firearm in my carry on luggage to Fort Lauderdale airport. Apparently I joined an elite club of people that are not paying attention. Having my CCL was the only thing that kept me from going to jail. Immediately during the incident, the TSA supervisor at ...the airport told me that these fines range from $4000-$10,000 just in civil penalties. This is the first run in with the law that I have ever experienced, and I'm 46 years old. I found Scott here on Avvo and thought it was necessary to at least contact him with my situation. He called me immediately and after only speaking to him for a few minutes, I retained him. In fact, he called and emailed almost every day communicating what was happening and what were the next steps. If you're thinking about hiring Scott because you ran into trouble with TSA.. he's a retired Attorney and counsel for TSA and reduced my fee by 78%!!!! ~ Yes... 78%! RETAIN HIM NOW!
