Steven Eric Shumer

I recently used Steven Schumer from Berger Fischoff & Schumer, LLP. I was referred to him by my Ex wife who had used him last year (not with me). She had great things to say about him and after using him I could not agree more. Steve was thorough, exact, and understanding throughout the whole pro...cess. Many times I tried to offer more than what I needed to. Steve constantly took time out to explain to me what was required and advise me against my own self damming wishes. The most important thing about working with Steve was that he met my needs by awarding my partner things I wanted to award her, while at the same time ensuring that I was protected from present or future litigation. A common term used by Steve was, “Stop, you hired me to protect you let me do my job.” Each time he said that I felt comfortable I was in good hands. In the end he did accomplish things I wanted to accomplish and best of all I was protected. I highly recommend Steve to anyone going through a difficult situation. He is caring and professional and has the utmost expertise in his field.

I met Steve Shumer through a local business group and from the sidelines I watched… Here was a guy who commanded the attention of everyone in the group. It was both his personality and the way he organized his thoughts that piqued my interest. Steve is a bright, get it done type that, when engaged, ...is tenacious to a fault. I had worked with a few different firms through my prior divorce case. However, when I needed the services of a firm to represent me for a new prenuptial agreement, instead of going back to my prior counsel, I felt compelled to approach Steve Shumer at Berger Fischoff & Shumer, LLP. (I am really glad that I did). The attention to detail that I received from Steve was unprecedented. There were numerous subtleties in the draft of the agreement provided by my fiancée’s firm that I would never have identified. Once the issues were explained by Steve, we were able to negotiate a very fair two way agreement. As this type of attorney-client relationship extends beyond just the legalese, Steve coached me through how to, with finesse, discuss difficult issues with my bride to be without creating a bad situation. If you’re looking for a firm that just “gets it” and really listens to the client’s needs, I can’t speak highly enough about Steve Shumer and his firm at Berger Fischoff & Shumer, LLP.

I have been a client of Berger, Fischoff & Shumer for about five years. In that time, I was guided through a difficult and emotional divorce proceeding by Steven Shumer and his staff. Steven, and specifically his paralegal Angie, always were available when I needed them most. They were considerate... and generous with their time, fully understanding the personal and emotional aspects of my divorce. Through the process, Steven and I have truly become friends. Since my divorce ended, I have called upon him to answer simple non-legal questions as well as legal issues and each and every time he has been there for me. It is without question that I would recommend Steven Shumer and Berger Fischoff & Shumer for any client’s legal needs.

I have known Steven since 2006. I want to thank him for his help in all these years of need. I did not use he or his firm in my initial divorce (wish I had) but have used them in several post divorce cases. In each case, Steven and the firm has been extremely professional, compassionate and calming.... Coming from someone who gets bombarded with a number of legal issues, it is quite comforting knowing they are behind me. Steven and his colleagues are very knowledgeable, honest in their assessments and guidance and not always looking to make a buck. Steven has even taken the time to respond while he has been on vacation. Since I have known them for so long, they are like family to me. They are people I trust to help handle very difficult situations. Thanks Again!!

I have had the good fortune and privilege of being introduced to Mr. Steven Shumer of Berger, Fischoff & Shumer, LLP. For over a decade he and his firm have assisted me and my immediate family with a myriad of legal issues. Each and every time I sought the firm’s services, I was overwhelmed with th...e positive results of each situation. I have recommended Mr. Shumer and his firm to family and friends for whatever legal assistance they might require and have only received positive feedback from those I have referred. I have no qualms contacting Mr. Shumer with any of my legal problems. It is my opinion that Mr. Shumer and his firm will do everything to help out his clientele to the very best of their abilities. Most importantly, they handle themselves with professionalism, compassion and understanding. THEY ARE THE BEST!! A.T.
