“The representation I received from Mr Hodge was second to none.”
About a year ago I went through a divorce. As anyone who has ever went through a divorce, they can be very difficult especially when children are involved. I have to say that the legal work and the representation I received from Mr Hodge was second to none. I highly recommend using Jeff, I hired a lawyer and gained a life long friend.- Joe K. -
“I highly recommend Laterra and Hogde to anyone in need of a good divorce lawyer”
It has been a real pleasure working with Scott and Valentina. They were both supportive, extremely knowledgable, and very sincere. They made my divorce less painful and kept me informed throughout the whole process. Scott was always taking the time to listen to me, and to explain to me what I had not fully understood. Thank you so much Laterra and Hodge for the spectacular job you have done for me, exactly what I have needed. You made my life a lot more peaceful. I am a stronger, optimistic and confident person because of my attorney. I was very satisfied with Scott and Valentina and I highly recommend Laterra and Hogde to anyone in need of a good divorce lawyer.- Frederika V. -
“A+ legal rep”
Scott is a gem! He is genuine, compassionate and gets the job done. He has impeccable listening skills and clearly can understand you even through all the emotion. He is an A+ legal rep...The most trustworthy and no nonsense get the job done attorney. He will get you the results you want and then some. Reach out to Laterra & Hodge pre or post judgment...Scott and his team are superb. Scott is the attorney you want standing by you.- Lisa A -
“I would go back to them in a heartbeat.”
I retained Scott Laterra in my divorce proceedings in 2014. I couldn't have chosen a better attorney. Scott is great. He is very professional and a great listener. He made sure that everything we were working for was clear and that I understood the outcome. Him and is team are the best at what they do. I would go back to them in a heartbeat.- Julie A. -
“I trust him, and no one completes this process without trust issues.”
I entered the divorce process as a neophyte, and Mr Laterra was a partner in a larger, more established matrimonial specialty firm at the time. We were against a very 'bad one' (so described years later by a retired lawyer working in the matrimonial specialty that I met). He consistantly tried to keep the dialogue professional and keep communication clear and open. This (I later discovered) is vital to survivng the post settlement life, ever after. He was completely capable of countering all the unethical chalanges we faced with the ----, but didn't need to climb in the mud to do so. He is also consistantly honest in presenting your options, and expected outcomes. Recently he met with my best friend who had disoveries post settlement, and bluntly informed him that all he would get now from investing time, energy, and lots of money would be the mild annoyance of his former wife. So my friend decided her could do that himself for free. That's ethics. If you need to at times feel the need to go down and dirty, he won't stop you, but he will guide into doing the least damage to yourself, your kids, and the case-both long and short term. He will function as your partner in this difficult time, and be there for any fine tuning if required after (but not set it up to assure he will collect a pension from you). He is also, unfortunatly for him, self experienced. I trust him, and no one completes this process without trust issues.- Tony W. -
“His firm gave me a sense of stability in the midst of chaos”
Provided a strong, comforting presence at a very stressful and upsetting time in my life. His firm gave me a sense of stability in the midst of chaos by reaffirming my beliefs in what is right in raising a child and what is important in recovery from divorce.- Laura R. -
“From start till the end they were there for me.”
Scott and his assistant Valentina were genuinely helpful and very professional. From start till the end they were there for me. There were very reasonable in their billing as well. I wish there are more law firms like them. I highly recommend them.- Salman M. -
“I felt he was very honest and had my best interest as the number one priority.”
Scott proved to be an outstanding attorney. He was extremely supportive and accommodating throughout the entire process. He was easy to talk to and was very understanding. It was not difficult at all to get in touch with him and he returned phone calls in a very reasonable amount of time. I felt he was very honest and had my best interest as the number one priority. He clearly defined all of my options without pushing me in a direction that suited him or his practice. His knowledge of matrimonial law really impressed me. I would absolutely recommend Scott to anyone in need of a lawyer who is going through a divorce.- Mike K.
