The title says it all on this review. I have used Scott Hamblin on a number of legal issues over the course of many years. He never fails to perform beyond expectations. Scott Hamblin is widely known for being prepared and thorough. This was true in every instance that I needed his services including most recently in 2015. He is not a 9-5 type and it shows in his communications. I was always informed on every action he was taking on my behalf and this communication was personal and not submitted exclusively by letter or email. He would speak to me after hours which is a real boost for a person involved in legal matters. Scott Hamblin is personable and direct. He has great knowledge of the law and puts his clients first in the legal equation. I find him to be of the highest ethical standards who advocates with discipline. A couple of observations I have made about Scott separates him from most attorneys. The first is that he is not egocentric. He is professional but presents himself as a person who listens and has humility. Secondly he advocates efficiently and is not a wasteful type. He understands the value of money and tries with great effort to stay within budgetary constraints. You know every step of the way how the case is going and how your money is being spent. No secrets and no curve balls from Scott. He practices law with great passion. I am very selective about seeking legal assistance. I want the best attorney I can get for the job at hand. In every instance I have needed an attorney over the last decade he is the man. I have only used two attorneys in mid Missouri in the last 15 years. The other attorney always has recommended Scott for the very reasons that I have cited here. Scott Hamblin comes prepared. He is the only attorney I will use! If anyone wishes to challenge the validity of my statements or the sincerity of this review please contact me via my email and I will open up my legal files to show you how good he is at practicing the law. Is this a bit over the top? I think not because there are a lot of Attorneys out there practicing law for the wrong reasons. When you find a diamond in a pile of stones you don’t hide it, you share. I recommend Scott Hamblin to everyone who needs a great attorney. I have done so in the past and will continue to do so in the future. He is one of the best attorneys in the state of Missouri.
A Jefferson City man faced DUI charges following a field sobriety test. Charges against the defendant were dropped after Scott successfully maintained the client’s claims that the test results were inaccurate. While the client initially appeared to be in a difficult situation, Scott was able to push investigators to determine the sobriety test results as invalid, so the charges were dismissed.
A mother was seeking sole custody of her children following a divorce. The father refused to cooperate, leaving the client in a difficult situation as she felt as though her children didn’t have a voice. Scott recognized her need for an advocate and carefully listened to the children’s wishes, which conclusively helped the client achieve sole custody of her children and protected their best interests.
A client from Fulton was accused of drug possession as a result of a home search. While drug charges may potentially be filed as a Class C felony involving severe consequences, Scott was able to help the client receive a reduced sentence. Ultimately, the client faced significantly smaller penalties compared to the initial charges.
Scott assisted a defendant in a particularly challenging divorce case in which the other spouse was not cooperating. Scott was able to help the client avoid court through an aggressive legal approach to resolve all outstanding disagreements while maintaining the client’s long-term needs.
One client sought legal assistance after an altercation with another individual in Jefferson City. The client was arrested on assault charges despite allegedly not starting the fight. Since an arrest can lead to life-altering penalties such as being terminated from employment and serving jail time, Scott was able to build a solid legal defense in the client’s favor and argued in favor of the client’s innocence.
A grandparent sought visitation rights to his grandchild after the parent tried to block him. Scott takes grandparents’ rights very seriously, and so he devised a strategy to help the grandparent set a visitation schedule. Scott developed a strategy to show that the child’s best interests were fulfilled through the grandparent’s ability to visit the child, helping push the case towards a resolution in the client’s favor.
Scott assisted a client who was injured in a car accident due to another driver’s negligence. The defendant claimed that the opposing party using their phone at the time of the crash, and Scott emphasized this claim to show that the other driver was at fault for the client’s injuries. The case concluded with the client receiving the necessary compensation for medical bills following a long hospital stay due to injuries.
My husband and I hired Mr Hamblin for a criminal matter that happen to me by accident I had some issues that happen and I have never been in any trouble. However I did some research on criminal defense attorneys and Mr. Hamblin named appeared. I did some research on him and found that he use to be a prosecuting attorney. Any way making a long story short we hired Mr . Hamblin for my defense lawyer,he did not judge me for what had happened, he provided me with straight foward answers and he knew the law very well I…

Scott did an excellent job. He was available as needed and always listened. He responded quickly to e-mails or phone calls. He didn't just "tell me what to do." Instead, he listened to my input and helped me make informed decisions. I always felt as though he had time for me as a client.
