Paula C. Scharff's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked on several matters as opposing counsel against Ms. Scharff. She was always exceptionally well prepared for each case and represented each client fantastically. I always got the sense that she really cared for her clients to the point that she took the outcome personally. She is the type of attorney that other attorneys respect: she is prompt and thorough, always returns calls and emails in a timely manner, and doesn't "showboat" or engage in ad hominem attacks or histrionics."
"I endorse this lawyer because she is knowledgeable, has an attention to detail and is kind and compassionate"

Experience
Professional misconduct
This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2008.
Suspension issued in PA, 2008
updated on 09/15/2011Suspended means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.
“As a result of what I went through, I have an even greater understanding and compassion for what my clients may experience in our flawed legal system. I have an even greater passion and zealousness to protect, assist and fight for the person of my client and his or her interests. This was a 3 month suspension, I was automatically reinstated. The alleged facts have no bearing on my ability to practice law. I strongly believe that I was unfairly targeted and treated.”
