Monica Lee Scherer

Monica and a colleague of hers worked with me on a very complicated and contentious case related to my divorce and succeeded in helping me get the financial settlement I deserved. She was tough, knowledgeable, compassionate, and responsive to my calls and emails. I could tell from the first phone cal...l that she would go to bat for me. I would recommend her to anyone going through a difficult divorce.

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 have worked with Monica now for almost a year on my miserably difficult and combative divorce case. She was easily accessible by phone or email the entire time, patient and compassionate with my angst, completely on top of things (dates, orders) and found every opportunity to move my case forward. ...She was strategic and ahead of the game the entire process. Straight forward and honest, she provided realistic expectations. She totally rocked my hearing and coached me throughout negotiations to not back down (my m.o.) Her team was on the ball, helpful, supportive and competent. If you want a no nonsense attorney who knows her stuff, is highly experienced, smart as a whip, and has great people skills (and I'm a psychologist saying this)- well you can't do better than Monica!

I retained Monica in my divorce case which I felt was heading to litigation. From the moment I hired her I felt a sense of relief that she had this under control and nothing would be missed. She was ahead of the game in dealing with the opposing attorneys which made me feel secure. She communicated a...ny developments immediately and was always available to answer questions. In addition to being efficient and knowledgeable she is also kind and understanding and appreciates how difficult this awful process is. Ultimately it was my decision not to proceed with litigation as an agreement was reached. I know she felt that we had a strong chance of success in court and with Monica I don’t doubt that. I feel confident that she would have achieved a great outcome for me and I would not like to face Monica on the other side in court!!
