Highly Experienced

Scott was very knowledgeable and well versed on dealing with bankruptcies. He dedicated an ample amount of time to settling my debt with poise and professionalism. Never felt like I couldn't come to Scott with a question or concern of mine. Great guidance and support.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I highly recommend Scott Schneider for bankruptcy services, particularly for people on Long Island. I have known him since the late 1980's. Many years ago we both worked for a bankruptcy firm and trustee together, early in the start of our careers. I have discussed cases with him over the years and have seen him in the Bankruptcy Court frequently. He is extremely professional and has integrity. Clients can feel confident that he will handle their case professionally and efficiently. Excellent attorney with a lot of experience."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
