Client Reviews

Michelle Skaggs October 21, 2022

Strategic, Aggressive in his actions in court, Knowledgeable & Honest Scott has helped my family and I on many matters. Scott is everything I have stated in the headline of this review. If you want very strong representation in Bullitt County hire this lawyer. He considered the pro's and con's and communicates those well. Scott involves you in the process and articulates the steps very well. His personality is very funny but frank. I appreciate that about him. His staff is friendly and responsive. I have an upcoming court date and feel very comfortable about the outcome. Thank you Scott for being there for us during some very scary times.

Awards

Best Attorney in Bullitt County: Pioneer News; 2016

Guardian Ad Litem of the year: CASA; 2014; In March 2014 Scott was recognized by CASA as the guardian ad litem (children’s attorney) of the year for the Commonwealth of Kentucky. In all 120 counties of the Commonwealth, Scott was named the attorney who best fights for the rights of children who suffer at the hands of their parents. Scott credits his success largely to willingness to fight for those that many see as easy ignore- abused children largely raised in poverty. “Most of these kids never had a parent that cared about anything but getting high. Social workers, teachers, people like that- they’re overwhelmed with cases. They get in trouble if they make someone, even a strung out parent, angry. The only person I have to answer to is that kid. As long as the child is protected, I don’t care whose feelings I hurt”. CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) serves children who find themselves in the court system as a result of parental abuse and neglect. CASA volunteers are assigned to focus solely on the needs of the child. CASA recognizes an attorney annually who above all others has advocated for the welfare of child clients.
