Monica Lee Scherer

Monica's tough but kind...and brilliant. This is the best combination, especially when opposing counsel is inflammatory and immature (as my ex-husband's attorneys were). Monica did an excellent job representing me and the outcome in my case was much better than even the best case scenario I had hoped... for; I got a generous settlement but more importantly, custody of my child (in a split custody jurisdiction). Throughout the storm of a highly contentious litigated case, Monica kept me calm so I could focus on what mattered most: my child. Her fee's high but was a small price to pay for the results...and for my freedom.

There aren’t words to explain my gratitude for Monica. I came to Monica at the most vulnerable and terrifying time in my life when my infant became the center of a sudden, high conflict and contentious custody situation. Her knowledge, experience and expertise in family law is apparent from the begin...ning. Monica posses a great deal of honesty, integrity and ethical practices. Monica is 100% honest in communication, she is upfront about the reality of the situation whether it is good, bad or ugly. Monica’s quick response time and availability to her clients is second to none. I have been with Monica for three years and will remain with her for the next fifteen years.

When I started the journey of divorce after escaping an abusive marriage I had an attorney that didn't understand me and support me the way I needed. About a year into my divorce I was talking to a friend about how I wanted to find a strong, solid attorney to be able to fight for my sons and I that w...ould have our best interest at heart, as well as, someone who understood our trauma and what we had been through since my old attorney didn't seem to and triggered me a lot. My friend high recommended Monica and her firm and spoke very highly of her. This was reassuring to have such a strong referral after struggling with my past attorney so much. The first phone call I had with Monica I knew she was the one to help my sons and I through this complex divorce. She was so knowledgeable, truthful, and had such compassion that I immediately hired her and it was all uphill from there. It was a pleasure working with Monica and I am so relieved it all worked out with her strong council!

Experienced, compassionate, knowledgeable all around true professional. Monica is extremely knowledgeable in her field. Monica's calm compassionate no nonsense approach made an unfortunate custody case as stress free as possible. Monica possesses a calm and controlled personality and only escalated m...atters if needed which paired well with my case. Monica is very thorough and articulated well prepared arguments keeping my children's best interest at the forefront of the case. She was fully vested in the best possible outcome. I highly recommend her for all your family law needs.

Monica Scherer is an attorney with superior organizational skills, compassion, and intellect. I was extremely grateful for Monica's patience, skill, and expertise help me navigate a very difficult and contentious child custody case toward a favorable outcome for me and my children. Monica's attention... to detail is impeccable and her diplomatic/negotiation skills with working with the other side are extraordinary. Monica is simultaneously tough and compassionate and always aims to find the best solution to a conflict that results in an outcome that best benefits the children. She puts a great deal of preparation before going to court. She and her entire team are highly accessible and were always available with my questions or concerns throughout my case. She is the best attorney I have ever worked with, in any area of law.
