Scott was an immediate "yes" for me after talking to many lawyers. I was close to representing myself and talked to Scott about my case. He immediately showed compassion and respect -- something most lawyers could improve on. Scott was the only lawyer I've talked to that I've not once doubted from the start. Take the time for a consultation and I think you'll be impressed too.

Scott Hampton walked me through every step of my separation agreement and has continued to follow up on me. He is very compassionate and got me in and out of our meetings in a timely manner. I would recommend him over and over again.

I am very grateful for the legal representation of Mr. Hampton, as he is an excellent attorney. He was straight forward and honest from the start and always followed through with what he said. He was readily available by either text or email whenever I was in need of his advice or had any further questions to be answered. His one-time upfront fee was very reasonable and there were no hidden costs. Mr. Hampton was able to have my case dismissed without even a court hearing! His negotiating skills were exemplary. I will without a doubt use him if I am ever in need of legal help in the future.

I availed myself of Mr Hampton's legal services on the recommendation of a friend. He was every bit as professional, knowledgeable, and timely with the delivery of his services as I was promised. He explained clearly what needed to be done and proceeded to handle every aspect of my case through to its successful resolution. And if that was not enough, his fees were entirely reasonable. I recommend him highly, and would not hesitate to call on him again.

Mr Hampton has a very clear and advanced knowledge of the law. I have used other attorneys for various issues however Mr Hampton ranked the highest, in my opinion. He has significant experience in several key focus areas which makes him valuable in addressing any issue that may arise with the initial matter to be settled and additional concerns that may come up at a later date. He is most professional in his interactions with clients and opposing counsel which is always beneficial. I would recommend Mr. Hampton for legal representation. Victoria Blaine

Scott is a man of integrity. A very knowledgeable attorney. I really like that he listened to me and valued what I had to say. I interviewed two other attorneys and both told me how my case would go and what the resolution would be. They only wanted a paycheck. Scott cares about you, your family and the impact the resolution will have on your life and those of your children. We went into family court and thanks to his tireless efforts I walked out of court, a father, who was awarded permanent, sole, custody of his children. At the time one in elementary school and the other in middle school. He continued to provide service thru the legal challenges that followed. If you need an attorney, Scott is the man. Integrity, responsibility, competence, all, describe Scott. He is more than an attorney to me, he is my friend.

Scott was very good at guiding me through the separation and preparing me for the divorce. He is easy to talk to and listens to your concerns. I could not have made it through this without him.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
