Scott & Aplin LLC

Extremely disappointing experience. Rob initially quoted us a fixed price and clearly explained the scope. Now we’re being invoiced for services at nearly three times that amount—with no meaningful results to show for it. The lack of transparency and accountability is unacceptable. I would strongly advise others to steer clear.

We hired Rob Aplin to handle a non payment issue with our plumbing business. When we met with him initially, he explained that his clients “always got paid”. So we paid a $1500 retainer and he began the process of suing a customer for non payment. I’ll spare the details, but essentially we paid Rob over $4k for a lawsuit that the customer only owed us $3500. Now after pursuing the lien on the property where the work was performed, Rob lets us know that the house is going to sheriffs sale and there are two creditors ahead of us so unless there’s a ton of equity in the property, we will likely not get paid. We can continue to pursue the customer to go after wages but it will continue to cost us even more money. Never during the process did he explain that this was a possibility. If I would have known it was going to cost us this much money, I would have just taken the loss and moved on. I would never recommend hiring Rob. He was not forthcoming at all about the potential downside of this process and clearly he didn’t care because he just wanted to get paid. Zero stars for this joke.

If I could leave 0 stars I would for Aplin. I was 16 years old when this man destroyed my life and my mom's. My father beat my mother and I for years. Years. He didn't fight for us. My single mother had to pay spousal support to my father. We lived in a woman's shelter for months because we could not afford an apartment after leaving my father, legal bills, and spousal support. I've never forgotten the way he spoke to my mother and basically told her she had no options. It breaks my heart that a man as cold as he acted is still "helping" with divorces.
