Do not hire and stay away

This lawyer was recommended by a lawyer in his buildin. It was a rush and my last resort. He took my money and played games and caused more harm in my case. He yelled at me several times. He sat in court talking of his own divorce to all. Putting down his ex which is unprofessional. He lied to me sev...eral times. I even had 2 well known attorneys tell me to get my money back and go before he caused more damages. He is only about money. He can careless of his clients and lies through his teeth to get your retainer. He uses money on nonsense and depletes it so fast. He put liens in and it’s funny he hasn’t put in for that on any other cases. You will loose all with him. He talks a good talk. He threaten me not it give me my file until he is paid. He gave me more work with now fighting him on his malpractice and lies. He is a thief. He will do anything for a dollar. He has no best interest of his clients. He lied about putting in motions and screwed me and my case. He dragged out unnecessary things to just charge and charge. He will say he will do this and that and won’t. He understood what I had and took me for a ride. He promised this and that and when money was gone became very aggressive. He got more mad when he got called out on things and told 3 times not to yell at me like I’m his child! No wonder why he got divorced himself. And poor woman talking about it to others in court while being their for a client. He cares less of your kids well being or yourself. Please do not fall for this currupt, crooked attorney. He will rob you blind and do nothing in your best interest. Once you question in or point out his faults he will act like a child. He isn’t professional at all. He was late to all. He lied on another matter and said he said someone else which he didn’t. Look at your billing and question all. I will be fighting him now for justice.

Excellent Attorney

Mr.Scharoff represented me during the worst time of my life, a divorce after 25 years. My wife and I were quite successful and had many assets to divide. Never once did he take advantage of my financial situation, he was always fair and gave me straight advice as to what would be worth fighting for ...and what I would be wasting my money on. My many phone calls were always responded to within a timely manner as well as my emails. I was never made to feel rushed and always felt like a top priority. This attorney is one of the best I have come across on every level. A straight shooter with my best interests at heart and not his own. A rare find !

Top Notch - Attorney

Mr. Scharoff came highly recommended and represented me in a very complicated high asset divorce, also involving custody of my children. I now highly recommend him based on my own experience. His expertise and close attention to detail made this process as painless as possible. He was upfront, hone...st, and clear he had my best interests at heart. Quick to respond via email or phone, understanding and above all a complete professional who takes what he does seriously mixed with a world of legal knowledge. I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a straight shooter who can get the job done in a timely, cost effective manner.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Jerry is a true professional. He is a worthy adversary who has a great knowledge of the law. While he was not shy about potentially trying our case, he always looked for potential ways to resolve our issues with as little court intervention as possible. In an environment where attorneys often get a bad reputation for unnecessarily increasing legal fees, Jerry stands apart as a lawyer looking to solve complex problems in a cost effective manner."
