I've never reviewed anyone on line before because I never felt it was necessary, until I met Scott Kent. Scott far surpassed my expectations. I found Scott to be exceedingly competent and professional. I was extremely impressed with the high level of skill and experience he demonstrated in handling my case. Scott took the terrible situation that I was in, and turned it completely around 180. Again, far exceeded my expectations, easy to contact, reliable, and great to work with.

Scott represented me in 2018 for driving on a revoked license. I was in the wrong and with Illinois Law after the third conviction there is a mandatory sentence of 6 months first Offence was driving on an expired BAID device due to my review was delayed. The second offence was speeding going to the Hospital while the passenger of the owner of the car was injured. Both of these offences was my fault knowing that it was illegal to operate a vehicle.
On the 3rd Scott Kent represented me over a 7 month time frame. We rescheduled the court date 3 times and on teh 4th time he was able to negotiate from a 6 month time frame of jail to a 1 month time frame. This 30 day of incarceration will allow me to save my job and house. I thank Scott Kent for helping me.

This was my first encounter with the criminal justice system. Scott walked us through what was going to happen and what was the best, second and least desirable outcomes.
With his help we obtained the best result. It was clear that he knows the process and how to handle clients.

Scott Kent did a fantastic job with my case! He was always knowledgeable and professional. Anything i did not understand, he took the time to explain to me. I did have to go to trial, where he put on quite a performance, case beat.. not guilty on all charges.. this law firm is worth every penny & they’re reasonably priced! Would recommend!

I had the pleasure of being represented by Scott Kent through a DUI charge, a Driving while Suspended charge and a few other cases, all with successful results. Scott is a true fighter in the court room. He knows the criminal law like the back of his hand. He deals with his clients and his colleagues in a calm and reassuring manner, suggesting that this line of work comes completely natural to him. On top of that, he is highly respected and very well known around the DuPage County Courthouse. That being said, I would definitely recommend this attorney to anyone in need of a criminal Justice attorney or anyone with cases within the realm of his practice.

He is one of the most knowledgeable people I have ever met about the law. He was always open to listen to my many, many questions concerning my case (and I'm sure it was annoying to hear) but he never ignored me or made me feel like he was too busy or didn't care. He has extreme attention to detail and is very passionate about helping others. I was completely impressed with his focus on my case and his understanding of the law and how it impacted me specifically. My situation was very dire but he knew exactly what he was doing. He helped me win and I'm forever grateful. I would not only recommend him to friends and family but I would hire him again if the need arose. Thank you for all of your help Scott. I'm finally able to breathe easy again.

When I first contacted Scott with my case, he was very open and welcoming and showed me great empathy! He guided me through the legal process and made things very easy for me to understand! He got the charge against me dismissed thus saving my future and I cannot thank him enough for it! I will remember his excellent service so long as I live on this good earth and I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of a superb defense attorney who is also kind and compassionate to those who consult with him! Keep up the excellent work Scott!

I live in Cook County. A warrant was issued for my arrest in DuPage County for injuring a small child. I was scared, confused, and didn't know what to do, because I didn't believe I caused the injury. I was afraid the police or the investigation would be unfair to me, as it looked like a David versus Goliath scenario. Why would anyone believe a large, unmarried man from Cook County over the word of a parent of a small child?
I did not know the evidence against me. I did not know anybody in DuPage County who would care. But Scott Kent and his partner Tim Martin cared. Mr. Kent's law firm gave me the confidence to walk right into the police station knowing I had nothing to fear.
All throughout the process, and at every court date, Mr. Kent and his partner Mr. Martin would fight to give me the evidence I needed to determine if I was guilty of a crime. When the evidence showed I committed no crime, Mr. Kent personally represented me in a trial.
I could not be more pleased with his case on my behalf. Without making accusations or ascribing blame against my accusers, he simply pointed out to a jury of DuPage County citizens that the crime did not happen. Nobody is perfect, but Scott Kent sticks to the facts of the case, and not the character of the parties involved.
The jury decided in my favor, but even if it didn't, I would still give Mr. Kent a superior rating. He let all the decisions be my own, informed me of the risks, and supported me in whatever decision I believed to be the right one. He has good relations with everybody in the courtroom, from the attorneys, to the witnesses, to the judges.
If you are fortunate enough to have Mr. Kent working on your case, you know you have one of the finest, most decent men in DuPage County working on your behalf.
