Scot’s entire legal career has actively involved the protection of citizens’ rights, the study of constitutional law and the criminal procedures to be adhered to in the trial of a citizen accused of a crime. Having never prosecuted for the government, he believes that vigorous and ethical representation, the exercise of Constitutionally protected rights and the jury system, ultimately protects all of us equally. Without such, the system would ultimately fail and all citizens would suffer at the hands of corruption and abuse of power.

Access and communication between attorney and client are vital, to this end; Scot is always within easy access at any time, day or night, returning all telephone calls within 24 hours, usually the same day. All fee agreements are in writing, so there are no misunderstandings regarding the necessary retainer and related expenses, if any. Scot is quite familiar with the publicity a high profile case might attract and is sensitive to a client’s individualized needs, whether media-related or not.

A successful Criminal Defense Attorney must be: well respected by both the judiciary and his peers; the voice for the citizen accused; a scholar in the law; the police of the police and government; protector of the Constitution; and, willing to fight against an abuse of power and speak out against injustice. Scot brings these qualities to life in the Courtroom and does so with his Clients’ best interest at the forefront.
