Scott C Suzuki Attorney-At-Law

This might have been a very good review — however — wait till you see the Itemized Bill — they even charged me the .49 cents for the stamp to send me their bill! :-0
Add on the mistakes they made during the transfers of title which I wouldn’t have minded if they didn’t also bill me for the time to make those corrections!
Penny wise and pound foolish! I would have been happy to recommend them to my friends and family prior to getting their statement — WAY OVER THE ESTIMATE I was quoted.
Sorry guys, no positive way to make this better.

Scott is the attorney to go to folks! He is knowledgeable, warm, professional, honest & thorough. I love the Moiliili house where his office is located. It’s charming! Parking is right in front of the house & it beats having to deal with the downtown traffic & parking headaches! If you want your estate/​trust planning to be done with care & done right the first time, all you need to do is make an appointment to see Scott! By the way, it is important to be knowledgeable about your own assets & prepared to ask your questions when you meet with any attorney. To expect any professional to continually stop to answer your calls & questions is unrealistic. I found that my questions were addressed & answered with kind consideration & in a timely manner. I wholeheartedly recommend Scott Suzuki & team! Oh, and by the way, his office manager, Jenny, is the bomb!

This law office was recommended to me by a friend. Choosing an attorney is a very sensitive matter, so I also contacted a second one. Eventually, we decided to retain Mr. Suzuki’s services, as he is highly professional, experienced and with a great «can do» approach.
Being a financial professional myself, I was impressed by his knowledge on the subject matter as well as his staff’s welcoming and customer service oriented attitude.
The fact that this office has a charming neighborhood feel, only added to the positive experience. Other fancy offices that are located in downtown Honolulu tend to be more expensive as they have to pay a premium for rent, which is of course passed on to the client. That’s certainly not the case here, as the price of the services were very reasonable and affordable.
For all these reasons, I confidently recommend Mr. Suzuki’s services to my friends and fellow Unilocalers, in fact, my parents just met with him a few days ago as well and they had nothing but good things to say, which is big because they tend to be quite critical.

Scott Suzuki was recommended to me by a realtor.
I shop around.
So I met with 6 law firms on consultations about probate, and Suzuki was the most expensive, least helpful, and slowest response time. I had to wait 2 months even to meet for my initial consultation.
I found many others who offer more, for less, and are easier to work with.
All those staff in his moilili 60 year old residential house converted into an office are not organized, or friendly. Yikes!

Wish this review could get ZERO stars. Scott Suzuki is a neat guy, and very amicable. His staff however, in particular his secretary Lehua is the rudest, most disrespectful person I have ever encountered. She takes messages for Scott, who must not receive them because I do not get calls back. My grandmother spent 3000 $ on a trust agreement and another 3000 $ to get it amended, yet Scott can not answer a question for me without setting up a meeting… which costs about 400 for an hour. Lehua explained that he could not call me back without wasting more of my money, naturally I was upset by this and the way that she handled the issue was completely unprofessional. She offered no reconciliation whatsoever, only offered a meeting for weeks away which I would have to pay for.
Sorry, I don’t have 400 dollars to spend to have ONE question answered. Will never recommend Scott Suzuki to anyone since this is how they handle customer service. They say that lawyers are shady and greedy, but this one takes the cake. They should specialize in something other than estate planning and death, since such a sensitive topic requires more sympathetic service.

Extremely helpful guiding our family through guardianship with my elderly mom. He is caring, and knows his stuff. She is well looked after, thanks to his efforts on her and our behalf.

Hands down, THE BEST estate planning/​long term care attorney in Hawaii. He and his staff are very professional and very courteous. I have made many phone calls with tons of questions and they have been so patient with me. No question is a stupid question. I have peace of mind knowing that my estate and my mom’s estate has been taken care of by Scott and his staff.
