Scales Law Office

This office is all about the money. My attorney, stephanie scales, told the judge that I had agreed to certain terms in private conversations with her that I clearly had not agreed to. When the other side requested that I do certain things, she agreed to it. When I requested the other party do the same things, she told me that I couldn't request that. I came up with a holiday plan as she instructed to do so. When the day came to go back to court, without bringing my proposed plan to anyone's attention, she told me that the other side will not go for it and then went in and told the judge that I didn't come up with one. She is dishonest with both her own clients and the courts. The final straw was when I had to make a very important on the spot decision regarding my case. I asked he

A few years ago my stepdaughter had to go to court to establish permanent custody for her two small children. The whole year of the separation the kids were with her 100% of the time. We paid this woman $5,000 to represent her in court. Never contacted her prior to the court date or returned any calls. On the day of court, shockingly, some other young lady showed up in her place to represent my stepdaughter. This is a lady with stiletto heels and a mini skirt. Skirt. As soon as the woman spoke to the judge, she was summarizing the case and said that there was one child. In the case. There's actually two children. The judge laughed at her and refused to let the attorney speak for the remainder of the hearing. That judge gave the other side everything they wanted including half physical cus

Navigating the family court process was a long and uncertain journey, but having Cinda Scales as my attorney made all the difference. From the start, she was persistent, thorough, and truly lived up to her reputation as a “bulldog” in court. The process was far different from what I initially imagined. It’s long, grueling, and testing. Stay patient. Cinda’s expertise and guidance will get you there. In the end, she didn’t just represent me—she saved my family. I’m incredibly grateful for her dedication and highly recommend her to anyone in need of strong representation.

The reviews speak for themselves. Consultation was $250 went great. Paid $2,500 cash in February for Cinda to represent our family never heard back, so we contacted the office in September 7 MONTHS LATER. Secretary claimed they left 1 voicemail in February, which we did not receive. So in 7 months “1 voicemail was left” which it wasn’t. Not 1 more call, not an email, not a certified letter.. absolutely no communication for over 6 months is CONCERNING AND QUESTIONABLE! We decided we did not want to proceed with our case due to this reason and was pleasantly surprised when we got a refund back of over $2,100! Our family is going to hire a different office for our very simple needs.

Did not follow through when the order came back from the other lawyer (10-15) window to check to make sure the order is correct. She was told it was wrong and she never filed it with the court in time for the correction. Went in after the date expired and she asked for more money. No stuck with an order that is completely incorrect. Do not recommend, does not follow up.
