Competent tax attorney, but communication could improve

John Scott handled a complex estate tax matter for my family following my father's passing. His deep knowledge of tax law, evidenced by his recognition as Lawyer of the Year, was clear. With 16 years at Haynsworth Sinkler Boyd, he structured the trust effectively. However, the experience was mixed. While the legal outcome was solid, response times to emails were often slower than expected, and some fee explanations lacked clarity upfront. He is undoubtedly a skilled practitioner in trusts and estates, but managing client expectations and accessibility could be better. I would describe the service as professionally adequate, not exceptional.
