If I could give Scott and his firm 100 stars out of 5, I absolutely would. Words can't fully capture how much Scott did for me and my family during one of the most challenging times in our lives. His professionalism, kindness, empathy, and exceptional expertise in every detail and strategy of our case were truly remarkable. Throughout the entire process, I felt not just supported but genuinely cared for, as if someone was fighting tirelessly for me when I lacked the strength to do so myself.

If you're looking for a lawyer who combines an unparalleled understanding of the legal system with unmatched compassion, look no further than Scott. We can't say enough wonderful things about him and the outstanding work he does!

Scott was there every step of the way going above and beyond after my 9 year old daughter was hit by a car. He helped navigate through the complexities of multiple car insurance companies, hospitals, health insurance, court filings and every single legality involved with the accident. His patience, knowledge and persistence effectively resulted in securing the maximum settlement for my daughter’s future. My daughter and I will forever be grateful that his hard work and dedication to our case means that we can put that part of our lives behind us and look forward to a future of healing and thriving.

After an unfortunate incident which caused me to require legal representation, I had the good fortune of having Scott Herndon recommended to me by a mutual friend. He was forthright, reliable and diligent in all of his communications with me, and proved to be a very effective advocate on my behalf. We reached a resolution that I am very pleased with, and Scott’s advice and counsel were instrumental in making that happen. As well as being a complete professional, Scott is also a nice guy who is sensitive to his clients’ needs, and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking legal counsel.

Scott represented me in an auto accident where I was injured and achieved a favorable outcome on my behalf, more than I was expecting. He was very professional and kept me in the loop on my case. He always responded promptly to my questions or concerns. I am grateful he handled my case and I was very pleased throughout. He also represented me in another matter previously and I would definitely recommend him if you’re looking for a great attorney.

Scott was a pleasure to work with, he was professional, compassionate, friendly, positive and extremely knowledgeable. Our daughter was in a motor vehicle accident in the Bay Area. She was hit by a car while walking across a crosswalk. We reached out to Scott looking for advice as we knew it could be a difficult case to prove. We live in out of state and we knew we needed the help of a California lawyer. All of my communication with Scott was by email and phone, our daughter met with him in person and he made her feel very comfortable – she felt heard by him. With Scott's help, we were able to resolve the case and feel justice was done and fair compensation was paid out. I would highly recommend him.

He has repped in in two situations that both panned out better than expected. I met him on the tennis courts and felt due to his fiery demeanor on the courts that he would bring this same energy to my case. I took a chance with him and boy, was I right. I true tiger both on and off the court. What else I also appreciated about Scott was my ability to call him on his cell and talk to him man to man. No secretaries blocking for him and waiting days for a return call. Just as my doctor, I insist on being able to have a cell phone number I can call directly. This means everything.

I called Scott to seek his advice regarding a severance agreement. The agreement differed from the terms that I was told I would receive. Scott reviewed my documents and contacted the employer the very same day to reach a favorable resolution. Scott is very knowledgeable, proficient, responsive and pleasant. I highly recommend Scott. I am very pleased with his services and would not have received a satisfactory resolution without him!

This was my first experience having to hire a Lawyer. Scott was absolutely amazing. From the first moment my wife and I spoke with him he put us both at ease, and continued to do so even when things were looking bleak.
I was hit by a car when riding my bike home from work one night. to make things worse, I had no memory of the incident. The police report was written without my account of the event, and they deemed me to be liable for the accident. With bicycle replacement, medical bills from surgery, loss of income from being out of work... things were nightmarish for me. But Scott handled my case with genius! He was able to flip the case 180 degrees and show that the initial assessment of liability was incorrect, and get me a settlement I was overjoyed with. I had a good friend go through a similar situation, and his personal injury case was resolved in approx. 8 months start to finish. Scott was able to have my case resolved in 2 months!!! While a resolution that fast may not be ideal for everyone, it was nothing short of a miracle for me in my case, as I wanted a quick resolution. Not only will I always recommend Scott to anyone and everyone, he will be my attorney for life. 10/10 I cannot thank him enough, he was phenomenal.
