Wonderful lawyer

I had a wonderful experience with Mr Schraier and continue to do so almost a year out from our case. Our case was unfortunately extended in its time frame because of the other party but he still maintained a wonderful amount of patience and courtesy. Im a naturally anxious person and would email him ...at least once a day and he would always answer my emails respectfully kindly and patiently by the next morning. He has an amazing amount of knowledge and I felt well represented and safe during our case. Even now 8 months since our case that ended in my favor he still replies to my emails if I need guidance or am unaware of a topic in regards to the order of protection I was granted and always has time to answer any of my questions.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
