A friend with a CDL retained this firm for a ticket. He didn't speak English and enlisted my help to communicate with the firm. Everyone was very helpful and super transparent. They represented him and got a favorable outcome while he was traveling out of the country. It was great to pass on the good news. We definitely would recommend them for CDL drivers. read more

I scheduled a phone consultation on May 21st at 1:15 pm and never received a call. I waited until 2pm and still no call. I called and left a voicemail and no one followed up. This is the 3rd law firm I set up a consultation with, in Stockton. I'm not sure what's going on but the service is very unprofessional and just proves that these firms do not care about clients just money when it comes to showing up the court. read more

Peace of mind! I contacted Scott's office after contacting several other family law attorneys. They all wanted a crazy amount upfront just for us to let them no what was going on. Found Scott's firm and called. I got the most pleasure helping voice on the other end. It was Taylor. I explained my son's situation to her and she went to work. She got us scheduled for a the phone interview with Scott. He is a very busy man however he made sure to give us a call to discuss. He let us know is fee. Paid the down payment and Taylor kept me in the loop with everything that was going on and needed for my son to fill out. Scott got his $939 dropped to $145 a month. Scott truly Thank you! I really appreciated your hard work in helping my son and myself. read more

Part2 Today my bankruptcy discharge was finalized and I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to this amazing team of professionals (Taylor) taking all my calls and never getting frustrated with all my concerns.There is a great weight lifted off my shoulders today and I'm excited for a new beginning at making better financial decisions. If you need legal counsel don't hesitate on giving this office a call. Thank you all again! read more

Scott and his office team have a very prompt response time, I hear from them in less than an hour. Their dedication to my case put me at ease throughout the legal process. They work with my difficult schedule and keep me updated with phone calls and emails to prepare for court hearings with the assurance that all my questions are answered in advance. They are very transparent about the costs associated and are affordable. The successful outcomes are why I would highly recommend Scott Mitchell Law and continue to use them for any future legal needs. read more

Why would you consider this place? Look at the reviews and that should tell you otherwise . Place is a joke And you get what you pay for! Just give them your hard earned money and don't expect to see them again or answer your calls! read more

I'm giving this law and the team 5 if I could give more I would. After so many years of looking and wasting money to get my matter completed. I finally found Scott Mitchell law inc and his team he is affordable he breaks payments down every three months 2,500 of course it also depends on your case. I would have safe so much money from the beginning back in 2021 if I would have hired him. Also he does free consultations. Taylor and scott will answer your emails, phone calls . No hiding fees it's all on your contract. Just be clear on what it is that you would like the outcome to be just know that there is times won cases and lost cases but him and his team are good at what they do. I decided to give them a chance. I'm so glad I did. I was finally able to get some changes on my child custody and get my divorce finalized. I would definitely recommend. read more

Just got off the phone with Scott omg who the fuck would hire this idiot ! I'm sorry for the Vulgar language but after speaking to him for 20 minutes explaining the reason I would like to obtain a lawyer he basically told me he would not put up a fight and my best bet would be to hire an out-of-town lawyer because they are more willing to do so ! I couldn't believe my ears ! I live in the Bay Area and only spent 4 years of my life in Modesto and Every time I deal with anybody in Stanislaus county it reminds me why I never wanna go back to this shit hole ! read more

I was given outdated advice by Scott Mitchell which has resulted in a temporary loss of primary custody of my son, resulting in an upheaval of his life and our family's life. I am beyond disappointed and wish I could take legal action. Unfortunately, Mr Mitchell told me I didn't even need his services, my case was so solid. I didn't even hire him. I have lost primary custody of my son due to a technicality that Mr. Mitchell neglected to inform me of, either due to his own incompetence as a family law attorney or just plain carelessness. These mistakes can ruin lives and family law situations should be treated as importantly as they are to the people dealing with them. Shame on you Scott Mitchell. read more

I don't know what kind of attorney Scott is but I do know that he doesn't call per appointments that his office sets.

I had the best experience with Scott Mitchell I was reading the other reviews below I never experienced any of complaints below. When I call they are polite and they have helped answer all of my concerns. Remember people lawyers are very busy and they are dealing with other cases as well . Myself as a customer I feel like I am the most important person and I want answers now . Sorry to say good things happen to those who are patient... well thanks Scott for believing in me and fighting the way you did in my divorce. I give you 5 stars because that's all there was to give I know that there still is a long road ahead but having my alimony lowered was the best gift I could have received thank you and to your staff at Scott Mitchell law office ! read more

I had a great experience with this law firm. We had to file a very speedy bankruptcy and that's what we got. Scott and Patty did the case for us and were both very friendly and accommodating to our work schedules and home life. They made it as quick and painless as possible. The office is beautiful, the staff was understanding, and they are good at what they do. I will definitely go back to this firm should I ever need an attorney or representation in the future. read more

Worst Law Firm ever and would not let them represent me in a parking ticket, I was billed for divorce which ended up with the same results as if I never hired them I signed the paperwork just to be done with the divorce after they promised certain things and that bills would be paid every time I spoke with them they knew nothing of the case they never requested Discovery or evidence that would prove I was doing money And when the money was gone they wanted more money to research and understand the case I would have got exactly the same results without ever hiring these people to represent me Whenever I called to ask a question or what was going on I was billed for 20 minutes my questions were never answered my calls were never returned My divorce has been final for over 40 days now and I still was never sent a copy of the final divorce decree I had to go to court to get a copy of it myself I paid them money that they claim they never received and then they billed me for and I had to turn around and produce receipts to prove that they were paid This is a totally unorganized and unprofessional and I would highly recommend against them read more

Very rude. Never allowed to speak with the attorney. Had a paralegal the whole time. A waste of $1100. Felt like they were never on my side. Just another number. Pretty bad experience. Ended up finishing the court work myself. read more

Glad the paperwork is finally over. The process took so much longer than expected and the follow up by the staff wasn't the greatest. Overall, a mediocre experience. read more

My husband and I paid for Mr Mitchell's law firm to do our Bancruptsy. A few years after the Bancruptsy was discharged in our favor, we continue to get calls from two creditors stating they were never given any information about the bankruptcy which led to them not having a chance to go to court and fight the bankruptcy if they wanted to. Fortunately for us they didn't find it and excepted our bankruptcy but it took a lot of effort on my part. Also another creditor put a lien against us through the IRS and when I called Mr. Mitchell's office to talk about it I was told that I was a liar the IRS would never do such a thing and that I was acting like a child however I had the proof of the letter! I wasn't acting like a child I was acting like somebody who was frustrated and scared. I would never recommend this firm. read more

My husband and I had a great experience with Scott Mitchell and his firm.. Everything went smooth. All phone calls and questions where answered with care and kindness. I would hire him again for any of my legal problems and would also recommend his law firm to all my family and friends. Thank you Scott and to your firm for a job well done. read more

Someone made a mistake on my wife's case but to be fair they did not charge us and prepared papers for us for free. They do have good prices and are easy to get setup with. When someone is able to admit they were wrong and make good on the situation it really says a lot about them. They are honest and will fix any mistakes they make, I would go through them again. read more

Definitely the best law office in this area! Always prepared and ready to handle anything. Very nice atmosphere and all staff is very very friendly! Best service I have gotten from a law office, ever! read more

Thanks for the response to my email Scott. Do you not see the trend here with all the negative feedback in regards to your service. I want you to succeed so that's why I ask you to look very hard at your office staff and how the conduct themselves. I sent several emails to your sister that works for you and received nothing back. I also stopped in the office 5-6 times and left a message for you and your sister to get back to me and I heard nothing from either of you. Scott maybe you do care and if you want to continue please take a hard look in the mirror and make some tough decisions on what you should do with some of your staff. I've been with a new attorney and their follow through is top notch so I know it can be done. Scott always look to improve and don't get complacent . Good luck Scott I wish you success but remember the people that seek you out need more attention than you are giving them. read more

Absolutely horrible! If you enjoy having your phone calls never returned ,if you enjoy wondering what's next in your case, if you enjoy getting a surprise bill for something that has nothing to do with the services you require. Stay away he is cheap to get you in and then they will bill you and if you don't pay they will sue you for it. I was billed for a court appearance that never existed. Scott did the same thing to a friend who referred me we had very similar cases and just needed paperwork to be filled out properly for modification of child support ,the list goes on. read more

I retained Scott Mitchell for a custody case for my daughter. When we first sat with him he seemed to be very interested and willing to fight for us. However as the time went on we got the feeling he wasn't that interested in fighting for us and we even asked him during one visit if he was still interested in having us retain him. My daughter had a second court date where we sat in the court room and he wasn't in attendance. The judge called my daughters name and at that time did a gentlemen stand up and introduce himself as the attorney representing her that day as Mr. Mitchell wasn't available. That was very unprofessional in my opinion. A heads up explaining that Mr. Mitchell wouldn't be attending would have been appropriate. The third court appearance with this assistant attorney was a real mess as he told the judge he wasn't prepared because he didn't realize the court date was that day and not all documentation was filed properly. The judge was not happy with him to say the least. My daughter retained custody of her children but her child support was highly reduced because of this attorney not being prepared. After the court date the attorney sent an email to my daughter giving his opinion on how she should live her life. He recommended she go back on welfare so that the child support be increased at a later date and other recommendations which were not in her best interest. The office then charged us $50 for this written email. I highly recommend you do your homework when selecting an attorney. read more

Thank you to Scott and his Law firm for helping me with my case. Any questions I had or concerns that came up he was there to answer them. To him and his staff they did a awsome job, would recommend his firm to all my family and friends. Thank you again! read more

Garbage! Never in my life have I experience such HORRIBLE unorganized staff, Scott Mitchell himself was very nice and informative however his staff is pure garbage. When you pay your "retainer" they use any and every reason to deplete the amount in your account and charge you more. I did all the work, we literally we robbed by this firm. I put in countless hours as a paralegal should and got all the answers myself, I filled out all the documents and petitions, but because we sadly hired them we ended up having to pay for prep for things that they didn't spend time on they just had to copy and paste!!!!! Funny how I am reading these other reviews and when we had obtained this firm there were positive reviews so we chose them, yet now there is NOTHING but horrible reviews and I know why. Think about this anyone can get on the computer go on YELP and write the review... It's making curious as to who actually wrote those positive reviews..... This firm ended up charging us well into the thousands for something that we had prepared ourselves for 100% and could have done without them. NEVER again will I hire them or recommend them to ANYONE EVER. I hope this helps you... PLEASE DO NOT HIRE THIS FIRM THEY ROB YOU!!!!!!!!! (many hidden fees and charges, over $100 for copies seriously, for the "hours" the claim to put it, you are a FIRM and since the papers you copied from us weren't double sided Im sure you have a copy machine that doesn't need to be fed 1 paper at a time. And lets not forget to charge our "client" that we want to "help" for us "reading" papers sent by the other party.... funny these papers were said to have been read but day of court the attorney present was asking multiple questions and knew nothing about the case in which he claims to have spend over 1 hour reviewing. I feel bad for anyone else who was hustled into their scheme. read more

Whoever answers the phone is extremely rude. I called recently to set up a consult not knowing i had been in YEARS ago for one. I did not recognize the name as i was just googling family law attorneys in Modesto. I was told by the woman who answered that scott would not see me for a free consult because he has schooling to pay for and cannot give out free advice if i don't plan on hiring him. I informed her that i did plan to obtain a lawyer (which was the point of the consult). The only reason i did not obtain him when i saw him years ago was because he told me i did not need to for what i was trying to do which i gladly informed her. Do not act like people are trying to waste his time and get free legal advice which is not the case. I completely agree that lawyers should be compensated for their time. Scott was very professional and nice when i did see him as far as i can remember. Office staff however is totally unprofessional and rude. Needless to say i definitely did not schedule my $150 consult after her comments. Bad for business. read more

This was the worst experience I've ever had in my life.. They gave me a attorney by the name of Doug that just seems like a money grubber. When it was time for things to go down in the courtroom Doug had done nothing in my favor at all. I asked if I should have the judge make a decision and Doug had told me no. It turns out if I would have asked the judge to make a decision I probably would've spent the nine thousand dollars that I've had to go through now. Now a child suffering mental depression stuck in a bad position as the courts take their time for the past several months to make the right decision. I called up the office to make a complaint and the supervisor told me they are not equipped to go up against court mediator recommendations which were very poor recommendations. I feel they should advertise themselves as paralegals and not family law attorneys. So it seems they helped me lose more than win. Another time he popped up in the courtroom for economic hearing.. Things that he could have had done for me on paper he told me to wait till the divorce hearing comes which was totally wrong.. I feel he delayed in doing his job thinking that I have to come back to him and use their office so they can make money off me over and over again. I will not expose the whole story on here but everyone who had heard of it to not believe the lack of services that this law office had provided. read more

Where can I begin? My husband of 30 years walked out and moved in with another woman! My world ended and I wasn't sure what my next step would be. Just by random I contacted Scott Mitchell and it was the best thing I ever did! He and his entire staff were amazing! My first visit was in regards to a divorce and I spoke with Trish who was incredibly compassionate, understanding, and sympathetic while being knowledgeable, professional, informative, and incredibly patient with me! Once getting all of my information and meeting with Scott my divorce was underway, then came the selling of our home and having to file bankruptcy! At a time when I had lost absolutely everything in my life, and they were always patient, and kept my best interest in the forefront! I then began working with Patty in regards to the bankruptcy. She was amazingly kind and patient, as I have called repeatedly with fears and questions! She was always patient with me and never frustrated. I have no family here, and no one to give me advice so the team at Scott Mitchell law became my advisers and my family. They walked me through the worst time in my life with encouragement and support! They were never too busy to address my concerns and my many, many fears! Now the divorce is final, the bankruptcy is final, and I'm finally beginning the next stage of my life. I could never have done it without Scott Mitchell and his team of wonderful, wonderful professionals! Thank you so much I will always be grateful for you all read more
