After a hunt for DUI lawyers, I decided to go with Scott Lee Anderson. He is an amazing communicator that checks up on you. He values you more than just a client. He got my 3 degree DUI dropped to a 4 degree DUI. I am very satisfied with my results. If you ever run into trouble, call Scott. If I could rate more than a 5 star, I would!

Working with Scott was such a pleasure as he made the process a lot less stressful then I originally thought it would be. He was able to walk me through the whole process, help explain in detail what needed to be done and why. When I called Scott he answered my call right away or within mins and the easy of communication either through the phone call, text or email was another example of why Scott made the process go smoothly. I would recommend Scott to anyone in need of a Lawyer or if I needed his help again there is no hesitation I would reach out right away for his help.

My husband and I had a great experience working with Scott Anderson. He is incredibly knowledgeable, quick to respond, and trustworthy. He took the time to understand our case, explain our options, and help us to resolve the charge quickly without having to go to court. We really appreciate the work that he has done to help us and would recommend him to anyone in need of a lawyer!

Scott Anderson is truly a great lawyer that fights for you and has high motivation to consistently work in the background, when you think nothing is happening, he's diligently working hard and is truly on your side. I'm amazed of his knowledge and to be honest his "let's get this done" steadfast forward thinking brings you the relief that finally someone is with you to take the fight to whoever. He helped me and my family with more than I thought he could, I should have never doubted him. I can't thank Mr. Anderson enough. From all of us in our family, we appreciate what you've done for us. Thank you Scott.

Scott was very knowledgeable and professional in all aspects of my case. He was in constant contact with me and was always available to answer any questions or concerns. He was confident, optimistic, yet honest in how things were moving along with my case. Scott has a lot of experience, recourses, and a great working relationships with the legal system and those involved. Anderson Law was the bright spot in an otherwise not great situation. I hope to never have to use him in this situation again but if I do, he will be my first choice, and I recommend he is others' first choice as well.
