Great Attorney

Read an article about Attorney Derek Schroth litigating Ocala’s fire service fee as an unconstitutional tax! Fantastic litigator.

Attorney Schroth is a go getter

I've had the experience of Derek representing me in a couple of cases. Derek and I worked closely together. He is very knowledgeable of the law and works very diligently in seeking the best outcome for his client(s). I highly recommend Attorney Derek Schroth!

Derek makes Home Runs Look Easy

Derek has a thorough and comprehensive understanding of the law. His arguments are organized, logical and well- presented . Once you hear his argument, it's very hard to support a contrasting opinion. Derek is very professional and courteous to all parties concerned. His work ethic and obvious ...competence cannot help but inspire confidence in anyone who chooses him for legal representation . I would recommend without reservation.

Incredibly dedicated and professional attorney

Derek Schroth successfully represented me for a civil action "whistle-blower" and discrimination case against the municipality where I was employed for more than 28 years. His knowledge in city and county government law is indescribable. His dedication and devotion to his client's needs are priorit...y. Without any hesitation, I would recommend Derek A. Schroth.

This Lawyer is a Team Player

Derek A. Schroth has represented me both personally and professionally for nearly 10 years. I met Derek at a low point in my career, when my transportation company was named as a defendant in a Federal Class-Action lawsuit in 2005 (OOIDA vs 4 Points Logistics LLC ) . Other firms in the area had al...ready passed on representing us, but Derek, with his transportation background, agreed to represent our company. I have found him to be an outstanding individual who is not only hard working and dedicated, but also honest, reliable and very passionate about producing the most favorable results for those he serves. I’ve challenged Derek with a variety of cases over the years, and each time through his representation and leadership, we have prevailed – at the Circuit Court level, the Appellate level and in Federal Court. It is without hesitation that I wholeheartedly recommend Derek A. Schroth.

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.
