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.

I contacted Silverman & Thompson through their website email one late evening in August 2019 and to my surprise Steven Silverman replied a few hours later asking for further details about our complex case. After trading emails back and forth he connected me with Monica Scherer. I needed time to retai...n counsel quickly so I asked Monica if she was able to talk the following day and sure enough she called me the next morning (while on vacation I may add!). We spent approx 1hr talking and I was immediately impressed with her level of knowledge in family court. I can't say enough about how great Monica was to work with. She is a true professional who represented us at very high level. The outcome of our case was extremely favourable for us and we are now able to move forward with our lives thanks to Monica.  She was prompt, thorough and extremely organized, not to mention caring and compassionate. I would highly recommend her for any family law matter. She is a big league lawyer and you can NOT go wrong retaining her. I wouldn't trust anyone else to handle such a critical matter and have full confidence recommending her over anyone else.

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.

Monica Scherer's experience, knowledge, and ability to negotiate difficult financial provisions, achieved positive results for me. When time is of the essence in a negotiation process, Monica responds immediately. Her advice is consistently well grounded, well researched, and well communicated. Mo...nica listens well, is responsive to client wishes and concerns, and is highly motivated. Monica's work product, and work ethic, meets the highest standards of the legal profession.
