About Scott
Scott Montgomery built his academic foundation at Wake Forest University, where he studied psychology and earned a B.S. in 1999. He remained at Wake Forest for law school and completed his J.D. at Wake Forest University School of Law in 2007. Those years on campus shaped both his analytical skills and his approach to client interaction.
He began his professional legal career shortly after law school. In 2008 he joined Montgomery Family Law as an associate. Over the next several years he took on a range of responsibilities typical of a small firm practice: preparing court filings, advising clients, and appearing in hearings. His tenure at the same firm has given him continuity in handling family-related matters and an understanding of how cases evolve from initial intake through resolution.
Montgomery’s earlier study of psychology informs how he approaches disputes that involve families. That background can help when evaluating how people communicate, how children might be affected by litigation, and how best to present factual narratives in negotiations or before a judge. He applies that perspective while working through the legal standards and procedures that govern domestic relations.
Colleagues and clients see him as methodical. He tends to break complex situations into discrete problems that can be addressed one step at a time. That style shows up in his preparation for hearings and in the way he discusses options with clients. He also spends time on the practical side of cases: clarifying timelines, explaining likely next steps, and outlining what evidence will be needed if a dispute proceeds to trial.
As of 2026, Montgomery remains at Montgomery Family Law. He has practiced at the firm since 2008, giving him nearly two decades of experience there. He represents clients in family law matters and handles both contested proceedings and negotiated resolutions. He focuses his practice on family law matters at Montgomery Family Law.
