About Scott A. Lisgar

Scott A. Lisgar, born in Springfield and raised in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, earned a B.A. in Business and Finance from West Chester University in 1995 and his J.D. from Widener University School of Law in 1998. Since 2003, he has been a partner at Keller, Lisgar & Williams, LLP, concentrating solely on family law matters—ranging from divorce, custody, and support disputes to adoption, guardianship, and protection‐from‐abuse petitions. He appears daily in the common pleas courts of Delaware, Philadelphia, Chester, Bucks, and Montgomery Counties, managing both straightforward dissolutions and complex, trial‐level cases. Over the past 12 years Scott has also served as an adjunct professor at Manor Community College, Bucks County Community College, and the University of Delaware, teaching Medical Law & Ethics, Business Law, and Torts, and delivers continuing‐education lectures in family law. An active member of the American, Pennsylvania, and Delaware County Bar Associations, he sits regularly as a court-appointed arbitrator. Outside the office, Scott coaches an elite travel baseball team, competes in triathlons (including the Louisville IRONMAN), skis, snowboards, and lives in Bucks County with his wife and two sons. He has been recognized in Main Line Today’s Top Lawyers and repeatedly named a Rising Star by Philadelphia Magazine.

Hired Attorney Scott A. Lisgar

Very down to earth. Always spoke in terms we could understand.
I chose transportation because we needed help with traffic tickets and resolving driving without a license after restitution was paid. The officer involved was very cooperative with Scott Lisgar. Luckily we had Scott to advise Leo to get off of his rump and get his license before the court date.

He was difficult to get a hold of; however, he produced great results.

Hired Attorney Scott A. Lisgar

Scott lacked in responsiveness, timeliness, and transparency when it came to billing. He charged me a lot of money for my case that never even made it to court. It literally took years. I think he can get the job done at the end of the day, but leaves a lot to be desired.

Hired Attorney Scott A. Lisgar

I wish I could give zero stars. Hiring Scott Lisgar for my child custody case was one of the worst decisions I’ve ever made. First, they charge outrageously high fees but completely fail to deliver on even the most basic aspects of service. For the amount of money I paid, I expected at least decent communication. Instead, I was met with constant silence and had to chase them down for updates every single time. Emails and phone calls went unanswered for days or even weeks. When I did manage to get a response, it was short, dismissive, and lacked any useful information. In such a stressful and sensitive situation, the last thing you need is to feel ignored by the person who is supposed to be advocating for you and your child. It’s clear they care more about collecting fees than actually helping their clients. I deeply regret hiring Scott Lisgar and would strongly advise anyone considering their services to look elsewhere. Save yourself the frustration, heartache, and money.

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.
