Was my first mess up legally and it was pretty major through just what laws I acted against, didn’t know what to expect and was freaking out until my court date. Scott called and let me know that all I have to pay is a fraction of a fine, and a months supervision. Honest to God this man is incredible at what he does.
Owner response
Thank you for the kind words. I’m glad everything worked out. Best of luck to you.

I am writing to strongly recommend Scott Hanken because of his outstanding legal representation in my traffic case. I was cited following a motor vehicle accident for a violation I believed was unjust. From our first consultation through the bench trial, Mr. Hanken demonstrated exceptional professionalism, comprehensive legal knowledge, and unwavering commitment to my defense. Throughout the process, Mr. Hanken took the time to thoroughly explain the relevant statutes, evidence, and possible outcomes. He prepared a compelling case, handled all court communications on my behalf, and was meticulous in presenting the facts at trial. As a result of his expertise and advocacy, the bench trial concluded with a Not Guilty verdict, affirming what I knew all along — that the ticket was improperly issued. I am extremely grateful for the positive outcome and the peace of mind his representation provided. I would confidently recommend Scott Hanken to anyone facing any legal challenge. His professionalism, courtroom skill, and client-focused approach make him an excellent choice for legal representation. Also, thank you Mr. Hanken for your kindness and consideration.

Driving home from St Louis, halfway home my path crossed a Sangamon officer in a little sting among the interstate. I was ticketed and Officer Friendly (not his real name) provided anxiety-provoking information about an upcoming mandatory court date and all of the costly fines and court fees I could expect as my punishment. After losing one night of sleep, I reached out to family and friends for advice on how to proceed which included finding a Sangamon County attorney. Mr. Hanken came with the highest of recommendations. I was immediately reassured as Carrie explained what to expect. My presence in court on the “mandatory” date 3 weeks later would NOT be necessary. Scott would be handling everything — and I didn’t need to be in court unless Scott told me I needed to be there. For a fraction of the price Officer Friendly quoted me, Scott worked on my behalf to review my case, attend my hearings and have the charges successfully dismissed. My only regret: That I didn’t know to reach out to Scott before I tossed and turned the evening of the ticket. Thank you, Scott. This is my 5 star review of your assistance in my case — from the first call to the last text and voice message, I am glad you took the wheel. I hope to never travel through Sangamon County again, but if I ever do and run into trouble, I know who I’ll be calling.
