Scalise Law Office

Are you looking for the best!!! Need look no further. I was referred to Mr. Scalise by another attorney in order for me to have my 1 free consultation regarding my divorce. I was a basket case (to say the least), sobbing out of control etc. I had no money and was confused and greatly depressed… Mr. Scalise said that he would be willing to stand at my side during the first court hearing and would seek to have my husband court ordered to pay $ 4,000 towards my attorney fees! It was so ordered, and lucky for me Mr Scalise agreed to represent me. His legal secretary Remi was great! She was always supportive and continued to keep me informed and updated all the way through. To make this short yet sweet, Jan. 27^th 2016, Mr. Scalaise succeeded in getting far more than I ever expected out of this divorce!!! For the first time in 2 years, I am able to exhale, all thanks to Mr. Scalise! Financially I can live and finally look forward to my new chapter in life. Mr. Scalise and Remi most certainly had my back, and I will forever be grateful!!!

Mr Scalise is very judgmental, his unnecessary comments about my difficult child custody situation were rude and made me feel uncomfortable. At court he was unprepared, not listening to the judge or opposing counsel but rather keeping busy playing with box of tissues or paper clip. I was misinformed when it came to signing agreement and what I signed was not what I agreed to. I do NOT recommend him. I had to change lawyer to someone that listens to their clients. Rami, his secretary, can be extremely rude and for some reason her emails went to my junk mail folder. I let her know to call me if it was due to paperwork she needed urgently but she did not and I had urgent e-​mails waiting over a week in junk folder.

I was lucky enough to be referred to Mr. Scalise from a friend. I had already gone to court without a lawyer and my ex wife had one. Needless to say it didn’t go well without a lawyer.
I walked out of court the first time on my own with a fraction of time to get to spend with my children. One court visit with Me. Scalise and I left with ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ custody and a work order for my ex wife.
He was so good against my ex wife’s lawyer that she fired hers and started representing herself.
I could literally go on for multiple pages about everything he has done for me over the past 3 years, but the important thing is he helped preserve my right to parent equally.
I’ve referred three new clients to him and they’ve all been very happy with his performance in the courtroom and out.
You couldn’t find a better family law attorney out there if you tried!

In all fairness I can’t rate this attorney as I wasn’t able to get past his bulldog receptionist. I will say that the receptionist/​intake assistant was extremely off putting and uninformed. While all attorney’s definitely need a bit of info upon initial consult this particular attorney’s office wants all your info and oposing side info upfront with or without even speaking to you regarding your needs. How do you know if you’ll be able to help me if you don’t even know what I need. How do I know you aren’t in fact some shady business entitiy? A consultation/​interview is a 2 party process designed to guage and/​or ascertain comfort level, skill, and ability to handle the given task.
Mr. Scalise please seek out a more skilled support team or at least one that is able to accurately cite why they are «legally bound» to request information when asked.
