Scott helped us over 10 years ago with an insurance claim involving a hard landing incident. He was sharp, strategic, and incredibly supportive throughout the process. A truly exceptional lawyer — definitely a 10 out of 10
I had a great experience with them. He is a great guy who really listened and helped. He and the people in his office are incredible and the driving force to the resolution of my issues. 20/20 I wish I could rate them higher.
These guys are awesome!! I was in a car accident to September to go where I hit a giant pothole car flipped and landed in a ditch and my car insurance said I only had liability only on that car which really put me in a jam. I could not find an attorney to take my case at all because nobody wanted to battle the state or the government or the county but Drew and scott stepped up got me all hooked up got me settled. They went well over and above what they could have or should have done Love these folks and this company.

Very disappointed!! I spoke with both Scott and Cynthia and sent them my info, they got the police report. I spoke with Scott again about medical. Scott was very cool. So for the last 2 months i am thinking they are representing me. Then they have some RANDOM guy call me and tell me that they dont want to represent me and they dont have time!! What a waste of time!!!!!!!

If there was a 10 + 🌟option I will give it to Sumner Law in a heartbeat. I got in touch with Scott and his team and they did a fantastic job in analyzing my case and gave me the best analysis reports. Whoever is looking for a law firm I will strongly recommend to hire Sumner Scott and his team. Thank you.

Scott represented me after I was hit by a car while riding with a group. The driver attempted to illegally pass us near an intersection and just hit me, a miracle given that there were a dozen of us in a tight group. Scott got us a quick settlement with no trial and we were very satisfied with the result. I believe this was because Scott recreated the conditions of the accident with technical details that were indisputable. I highly recommend him and his associate Cynthia Bird.

From day one my attorney Scott more like a friend to me now lol was there every step of the way - above and beyond in every aspect from start to final. He always got back to me, was there for me to answer any questions even dumb ones, Scott is a very knowledgeable, trustworthy, honest person and Cynthia is such a wonderful person to work with. I highly recommend, and promise you that once you start using his services you will look no further! THANK you again Sumner Law!

I am a 71 year old, female bicyclist who was hit by a car in October of 2018 and suffered some pretty severe injuries. I hired Scott Sumner, The Pedal Lawyer, after being dissatisfied with the first lawyer I hired for my personal injury lawsuit. Communicating with Scott and his senior legal assistant, Cynthia Byrd was like night and day in comparison to the first lawyer. Scott always explained things to me clearly and succinctly in terms of how we were going to proceed with the case. He explained the time line and always let me know when there was going to be a delay. Scott's understanding and detailed description of the scene of the accident was truly remarkable. I am truly pleased with the outcome.

I was represented by Mr. Sumner in a case involving a truck that had struck me while on my bicycle . His outstanding skillset included an in-depth legal understanding, an easy to understand approach and, most importantly, an ability to get me to verbalize my story. Even though the opposing council was excessively aggressive and, at times, insulting to me, Mr. Sumner maintained a respectful and sympathetic view of the trucker; always respectful and the way I wanted to be represented. Needless to say, even after 3 weeks of court days filled with evidence and testimony, a unanimous jury found the trucker at fault. Mr. Sumner is how all lawyers should behave, a pleasure to work with and someone, I hope never to have to call again for the right reason; i don't ever want to experience the trauma I went through.
