With over 30 years of legal experience, Scott has helped clients recover more than $100 million in compensation, earning a reputation for strategic excellence and tireless client advocacy.

He earned his Juris Doctor with honors from the University of Miami School of Law in 1993. A pivotal early experience—working on a traumatic brain injury case during a summer clerkship—inspired Scott to devote his career to helping injured individuals seek justice.

Since passing multiple state bar exams on his first attempt, Scott has built a career rooted in hard work, legal integrity, and client-first values. He is known for his meticulous case preparation and ability to outthink and outwork opposing counsel, securing meaningful outcomes for those dealing with life-changing injuries, lost income, and overwhelming medical bills.

Scott’s legal focus includes car accidents, trucking collisions, traumatic brain injuries, wrongful death, and catastrophic injury cases. He tailors a strategic plan for each case, centered on the client’s end goals and backed by the firm’s extensive resources.

Clients consistently describe Scott as empathetic, trustworthy, and relentless. His hands-on approach—beginning with the first consultation and extending beyond the case resolution—sets him apart in a crowded legal field.

Scott Poisson continues to lead High Stakes Injury Law as a premier personal injury firm in Las Vegas. His commitment to justice, strategic leadership, and deep compassion make him a powerful ally for injured individuals seeking to rebuild their lives.
