About Scott Matison
Since 2009, I have focused solely on family law including divorce, custody, support, abuse, adoptions, prenuptial agreements and name changes. I practice in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and have experience handling cases with a variety of financial circumstances. Prior to forming my own law firm, I practiced family law for nationally recognized firms in the Philadelphia area and New Jersey. With offices in Philadelphia, Media and Haddonfield, I am using that experience to continue helping my clients in the most cost-effective manner. I currently serve as the programming director for the Doris Jonas Freed American Inn of Court. I previously served as the co-chair of the Equitable Distribution and Alimony Committee in the Montgomery County Bar Association. There, I drafted changes to local court rules and planned programs on new developments in equitable distribution and alimony matters. I have been named a Rising Star by Super Lawyers every year since 2017, a designation only 2.5 percent of attorneys receive in Pennsylvania. I am also a frequent author and presenter on family law topics for the Pennsylvania Bar Institute, Pennsylvania Bar Association and Pennsylvania Family Lawyer. I am also a member of the following organizations:
