Liar

Dishonest liar. Pretends to be your friend. My wife gave him a lot of money.

Posted by Karen | December 04, 2012

Great attorney with great knowledge.

Mr. Schermerhorn was a very big help with my case. In fact I have already referred others to him as he was very knowledgable and he is very understanding and compassionate about his clients. I could not have asked for anything better then what Scott has done for me and my family.

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.
