"I have opposed Attorney Schmitt on several cases. He is a strong advocate for his clients and a consummate professional with opposing counsel."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Schmitt and I have worked against one another on a number of Family Law cases in Wayne County, Ohio. He is a good lawyer and works hard for his clients best interests.
