I was referred to Scott Boates by my father's estate attorney. This estate case was very complicated and involved contesting the will of my deceased mother. The estate was a considerable amount. I went into this not knowing if I would get anything. Scott Boates made me at ease our first meeting. He has an amazing capacity for taking challenges head on. This case was definitely a challenge dealing with my disfunctional family. My emotions were high after being caregiver for my mother who had Alzheimer's and dementia for over a year. The only way I can describe my anger is raw. I had no idea my brother had changed her will to him being the sole beneficiary of a substantial estate my father and mother had worked their whole lives to acquire. I did not know until her passing. Of course once the changed will was examined there were so many loopholes in it I was in disbelief. I mention how my state of mind was only to let you know Mr. Boates was dealing with a highly energized angry man. My hope is to benefit anyone out there who may be in a similar situation and you trust your siblings and think all is in order. Take the time to check it out. Once Alzheimer's and dementia set in there is nothing you can do. You need to protect your parents in some cases. In my case, Scott Boates saved my mother from being sentenced to a nursing home. She had adequate income to live in her own home and sleep in her own bedroom. Even though the horrible disease took over her mind , her dignity and privacy and personal care were my upmost concerns. Thanks to Scott I was able to take my mother out of the nursing home, which horrified her, and bring her home for her remaining days. I cannot empathize enough the emotional state of mind I was in. Scott Boates literally took me by the hand and took over. He accessed all angles of the case. Scott Boates is a calm man with a big stick and stays knowledgeable with new trends. To say he is exceptional doesn't quite make it. To me he was more than that. He truly got into the challenge with his heart and soul. He cared and empathized with the situation by taking action, not just words and a bill. We were able to settle through mediation. It turned out unbelievably favorable. Scott Boates has an uncanny way of communicating and is able to turn tables in a blink of an eye. This was a life changing experience for me after losing my mother. I do not know how I would have gotten through it all without his knowledge and strength and empathy. He made the whole stressful legal time table as painless as possible. Scott communicated with me and handled issues like a dear trusted friend would. Needless to say, I feel very confident in recommending Scott Boates, especially for complicated deep cases. Scott Boates is highly regarded by his peers and highly feared by his adversaries. Absolutely outstanding attorney! I am thankful my deceased father's estate attorney recommended him. God bless you Scott , and thank you from my soul. You turned an impossible situation into an amazing outcome. I would also like to mention Mr. Boates was dealing with difficult adversaries and he blew them out of the water. Mr Boates is nothing but amazing! P.s. I would also like to thank David Medina for all of your patient kind assistance.

Scott has helped me with wills and a divorce. I have referred him to friends here in the office who have used him and have been very satisfied with the results. He is very knowledgeable and truly cares about his clients.

Scott Boates helped us twice with legal advice. He did an excellent job and we would use him again. He was thorough and reassuring. We would recommend him to others.

I hired Scott Boates to defend against a lien filed on real estate. He made a few phone calls, sent a demand letter and a countersuit and settled it all in a few days. He was aggressive and diligent and is one of the most creative attorney's I've met. I've known many lawyers and worked in the industry. Scott's the right trial lawyer for complicated matters which require research, creativity and a well-planned counter punch.

Scott Boates has represented me on several matters involving litigation and other matters since 1998. I have recommended him to several friends who have also been very happy with his work. He is a very thorough and diligent lawyer who isn't afraid to fight for David against Goliath. He's handled family law matters, medical malpractice and personal business matters for me. I still use him as my lawyer today.

Scott is among the best attorneys I have encountered. He was thorough, understanding, and demonstrated that he truly cared about the outcome of my matter. I discussed my case with several attorneys before settling on Scott, and I couldn't have been happier. Scott took the time to listen to the full account of my experience, and after thoughtful consideration, he plotted the path forward that based on his knowledge and experience would yield the best results. Scott kept me apprised of the case's progress throughout. With my permission, he consulted with subject-matter experts and kept me engaged as to the substantive issues along the way. Scott's legal skill and strategic decision-making abilities were evident. I felt he handled my case as he would a member of his own family. I can't speak highly enough of Scott and his work.
