It is very hard to find any buisness that communicates through the whole process from start to finish. We couldn?t put a higher recommendation for a traffic court attorney! 10/10

Never heard a lawyer talk like he does. He keeps it as real it can be. Scott had my back and fought the bogus charges the state was trying to pin on me. He kept chugging along fighting and got them dismissed

I got myself into a horrible situation and called Scott. His ability to communicate and put me at ease was incredible. He explained everything to me and mapped out what we needed to do to contest the charges. He didn?t sugarcoat anything and in the end he delivered, and for that, I will be forever grateful.

Mr Hanken is an amazing attorney. He made personal time for my case right at the start, and kept on working on it for much longer than most attorneys would. His office's communication isn't the greatest, but I feel that's because he's out there being impactful for his clients. If what you want is results, and someone to fight for you every step of the way, and you can deal with the anxiety of not hearing from him unless he *needs* to speak with you? Then this is the attorney for you. For me, nothing matters at the end of the day but the results, and he is a results-focused attorney. I'll take a busy, but amazing attorney any day.

He performed nothing short of a miracle, he called and told me the good news today that not only did he save my integrity but he literally saved me from any further life distruption. I couldn't believe the miracle he performed in such short notice. I would recommend this brilliantly talented man to anyone who gets themselves into a jam. I'm literally lost for words right now.

Mr. Scott Hanken and Carrie are providing a top notch service. As an out of state driver, I got a speeding ticket in Morgan County, IL, I was panicking and started searching the best lawyer that can help me with this case. There weren?t a lot of Springfield lawyers that could help me since Morgan County is 40-45 mins away from Springfield and also it?s a whole different county. Then lo and behold, I found Mr. Scott Hanken and who was nice enough to help me fight this case. Scott made my speeding ticket case goes very smoothly, worry- free and a great thing that I don?t have to show up to court since Scott Hanken will handle all the court work on my behalf, like I said, I am from out of state and I don?t want to drive 2 hrs just to show up in court. Another great thing is Scott and Carrie are also a fast email/ text response. Whenever I have a question and asked through text/ email, I would get an answer from Scott or Carrie in less than 12 hours. I want to thanks my attorney, Mr. Scott Hanken for helping me resolved this case in a painless way. Overall, I am 200% satisfied of how Mr. Scott Hanken resolved my speeding case.

Great Lawyer understand that people make mistakes in Treats you as a friend an family member Real blessing to the community Thanks for Your Support

First of all let me start off by saying that I got myself in some trouble with the law by driving on a revoked driver's license, stemming from a DUI that l got in 1999. I've had to do some county time for this a few times in Cook County and once in Sangamon County. I ended up back in court recently for the same thing, but this time with two separate cases. I reached to a few people on my job as well as a few friends on recommendations for a lawyer and let's just say the majority of them recommended Scott Hanken. So I met with him and hired him as my attorney. Well on today 10/21/2022 l walked out of court without receiving jail time. I received a fine and court supervision and I just knew I was going to get locked up. Mr. Hanken told me back in 2021 when I caught the first case l wasn't going to jail and the same when I caught the second one. All can say is he is a knowledgeable awesome attorney who l would recommend to everyone, l hope l never need him again for that reason ever again, but if l did, he would be the first attorney l call. Thank You Mr. Scott Hanken

Scott was the best from the first moment I sat down till the our last conversation. Worked his hardest to get me the best outcome possible and that?s exactly what happened

Scott?s professionalism, knowledge of the law and years of experience, combined with his working relationship with the local DA and assistants make him a the natural and obvious choice for anyone needing serious legal assistance. There?s no doubt he saved my life from being ruined more than I did to myself. Thank you Scott ?

Mr. Hanken representation is second to none. He's the Attorney you want going in to any legal situation. A caring person that always communicates and will alway get the job done. I just straight up like and respect the man .

Was fast and professional. Possibly a little matter of fact for some. But they didn?t waste my time nor my money. In the future I won?t screw up again. If I do I will use them again

Mr. Hanken is an absolutely amazing attorney!!!! Highly recommend

I'm from St. Louis and was ticketed a couple of years ago on I-55 for the "move over" law. I had no clue about the law, there's nothing like that in Missouri, and was given a $2500 ticket. I found Scott through a local reference, and over the next 2 years and many continuances, Scott aggressively fought the charge, demanding and reviewing a dash cam video. Ultimately, I settled for a fine that was less than one-third the ticket, didn't need to appear, nothing on my record. Great job, Scott!

Scott is an outstanding attorney.Hiring him was the best decision. 5 Star lawyer for a reason. Great job communicating and is someone you can trust. I highly recommend based on his level of professionalism. This is the lawyer you need!

Scott was very professional, and went to great lengths, to have a case against one of my truck drivers. The problem was one that my driver would have no way of knowing a malfunction had happened.

I was driving back from visiting family in Arkansas when I passed an Illinois State Trooper. I tried to move over to the center lane but could not do so safely. All the traffic had shifted over and wouldn't let me squeeze in. I was pulled over for violating Scott's Law. It was clear that the police had set up a sting, pulling over motorists, each police car leapfrogging the other to rake in another "violation". When I was presented with a $750+ ticket, I knew I needed an attorney. I reached out to Hanken Law with every intention arguing my case in court. They were very courteous and experienced with this type of case.

Scott Hanken was very tentative and communicative to me through out the whole process. I am very happy with how he handled my case and questions? he doesn?t sugar coat and he doesn?t make promises he can?t keep. I would definitely recommend Scott to anyone ever in need of a defense attorney.

From day one Mr Hanken and his team assured me they would do there best and that they would let me know what was going on with my case at all times. This was my first time having to hire a lawyer and I must say I?m am pleased with my decision to hire Mr. Hanken. I was also pleased with the pay arrangement, with the economy and everything being hard for a single parent I was able to pay him to represent me without going into hardship. Thank you!

Scott and his team are A1 my case was dismissed without any jail time nor charges. He?s very clear on what he can and can?t do and what to look forward to while your case is ongoing. I also like the fact that Scott offers payment plans if you aren?t able to make the full payment up front and will work with you.

I just want to start off by saying how helpful and understanding Scott Hanken and his office have been through this nerve-racking time. Scott Hanken and Carrie communicated with me through every step and if something came up, they were on the phone immediately to let me know. He followed through with everything and was very confident he could provide a positive outcome. Carrie was very helpful throughout the whole process as well. Scott Hanken?s office will definitely be on my speed dial. We are so thankful for the diligence and dedication to his work.

Scott Hanken is the absolute best! I was so nervous about my ticket that I procrastinated until 18 hours before my first appearance before even calling but that wasn?t a problem at all for Mr. Hanken! He appeared for me the next day & even got my case fully DISMISSED for barely more than the ticket would have been itself.

Scott was highly recommended when searching for the right firm to handle my traffic issue. He was very personable on the phone and I felt like I could trust him?. And I was right! After collecting the details he told me not to even worry once more about it, he would handle everything and keep me informed along the way. One phone call saved my insurance premiums from those sneaky speed traps. Thanks, Scott!

I cannot be more pleased with how Scott handled my case. He put in the extra time to make sure everything I hoped for was a reality in my case. He was always willing to answer any of my questions. If I ever need legal help again which I hope not Scott Hanken would be the person I trust most.
