We want to express how helpful and generally outstanding Scott Garl has been with our family estate and affairs.  Our case has been particularly trying, one that involves a very complicated, and at times, downright volatile family dynamics. 


Scott has exhibited boundless patience with us and has tolerated things that most would have simply given up on.  He's gone well beyond the call of duty!   He's spent much energy helping to mend the life long wounds fragmenting this family via encouraging and facilitating gatherings,  We have connected with one another meaningfully for the first time in decades. 


We know people like Scott are a rarity.  We are forever grateful. -- SM

Thanks for doing such a great job on this case.  We really enjoy working with you!  - LS

I cannot thank you enough for all your assistance with my friend. We have entrusted you with his Power of Attorney duties while he recuperates at a nursing home. What was supposed to be a three-month recovery has now lasted several years, and all through that time you expertly managed his financial and personal affairs.

You have expressed deep concern not only for his present situation, but also long term care if required. I know the guy isn’t the easiest to get along with, and somewhat stubborn, but I can see how much he respects and values your input. I think once he recovers and becomes more independent, he will always consider you a dear and trusted friend. Thank you again, - WK

This note is in regards to our great fortune in finding Scott Garl, a wonderful conservator, for my brother Sean. We did not have any luck with Sean’s previous conservator AT ALL, and so we were very concerned and anxious about finding an honest and trustworthy one. So lucky to have found Scott! Scott and my brother clicked right away, with Scott’s caring, patient manner and his sincere listening skills. Sean was, guardedly, able to slowly put his trust in Scott once he felt that Scott really cared about him as a person and would be a valid advocate for him. Scott did not disappoint.

Scott went above and beyond to make sure that Sean was taken care of, and most of all, HEARD. They became very close and Sean counted on Scott...because he could! The relationship became more than just a conservator/conserved patient to the point of friends. Scott never left Sean in any of his hours of need, and was always just a phone call away. Scott spent many hours with Sean and our family in the last couple of days of Sean’s life. I miss my brother Sean deeply, but I find solace and peace that Scott was part of our team until the end, offering Sean the comfort and love he deserved.  Thank you Scott!  - LR

We love building relationships, sometimes under very complicated circumstances

Yes you did! (do a good job for the family). Your first true magic wand (wands, if we're being honest) case, almost in the books!  - JG 

Scott is wonderful.  He's a breath of fresh air. - EG

Scott, it requires a special person to do what you do.  Your help was much needed and our whole family needed you. You are for sure well-suited, have the right temperament, intellect, and emotional ability to handle circumstances like ours.  I think of you as part of the family now.  We could not have helped our brother without your guidance, input and just overall knowledge and kindness.  We are ever so grateful for having you as the fiduciary of our father's estate - SB
