Mr. Bonzell showed real professionalism and genuine care for my personal injury case. He was very thorough in his work and communicated with me very well as the process went on, always answering my questions clearly. He is highly intelligent, and has a genuine sense of ethics. The case was settled successfully in my favor.
 
-Carole S.
"I worked with Mr. Bonzell on a very complicated and difficult legal problem. He was the third attorney we hired as the first two found the complexity of the issues too much to handle. Mr. Bonzell helped us resolve this case through a thorough understanding of the law and a willingness to fight for us, even when the legal system and a less than scrupulous opposing counsel muddied the waters (an issue that made our two previous attorneys throw in the towel). I hope to never need his services again, but I have complete faith in his ability to help us should we need legal help in the future."
 
- Elizabeth S.

Scott did not inflate my expectations, but dignified me with realistic perspectives. He also went the extra mile with other related issues that came up as a result of my accident."

Scott Bonzell was an incredibly effective and thoughtful attorney to work with when our family needed help. Throughout the entire process, Scott made us feel comfortable and confident that he had our best interests in mind. He was patient, thorough and had the experience to solve our problems efficiently. Scott made the process less stressful than we could have imagined, and he delivered results that were far better than what we had been told to expect from several other reputable lawyers. We’d highly recommend working with Scott if you’d like to receive both a professional and humane approach when navigating legal issues. Thanks to Scott, our family had a second chance at success and life is good.

I was referred to Scott by a friend of mine who is an attorney and had a case against Scott. He told me that Scott Bonzell thoroughly trounced him and his client in court, and that Scott was extremely smart. I contacted Scott and we proceeded to spend plenty of quality time together preparing a construction defect case against an owner-builder defendant. I have been in the commercial construction industry for the past 20 years dealing with all sorts of claims and attorneys, and I can tell you that my interaction with Scott was BY FAR the best attorney/client relationship I have ever experienced. Not only is Scott Bonzell an extremely competent attorney, he is also personable, friendly and funny too. The outcome was that we prevailed in our case, and I have also made a friend for life.

"It had been months since the personal injury incident before I contacted Scott Bonzell. It was unfamiliar territory to me. His understanding, his professionalism and his patience in answering all of my questions were important factors in entering into an attorney-client relationship. I admired his calm demeanor, candor and integrity. He was able to secure a very positive outcome for me."

At age ninety, I had never had an experience with a lawyer before except during my divorce fifty years ago. I felt an immediate alliance with Scott Bonzell. Upon the recommendation of others and based my own judgement after our interview, I decided I could trust this man with my case. I found him to be a true professional in every sense. When asking questions on-line, I received an immediate response within the same day and always kept me up-to-date. He kept my worries at bay and I will always be grateful for his excellent work and, of course, the successful conclusion to my lawsuit.

Scott Bonzell represented me in an automobile personal injury case where I suffered considerable soft tissue injury and trauma.  He was very direct and low key. He made no promises, but won an award far greater than any I could have hoped for and far far greater than the norm for such cases.


 - Louis S.

Scott is an unrelenting, dedicated professional whom I would recommend without hesitation. I am so grateful that through his perseverance, thoroughness, and attention to detail, my case was well represented and successful. His kindness and compassion are an added bonus to a partnership with Scott.
