Brilliant
In this present pandemic, I can say that specially as immigrants, we can no longer afford to hold in high regard any individuals, institutions, religions or structures that do not view compassion as presence. Scott, proved to be a human willing to calmly be present in the difficult times. He was incredibly knowledgeable, a true advocate for his clients, not only an attorney but a humanitarian. This is someone you would not only want as an attorney but as a friend (and this is important to immigrants like me, we don't want a robot sin sentiemientos, este tipo si tiene corazon.) I cannot say enough good things. If you need an immigration attorney that will fight for you, communicate with you, and get the job done this is him.”
