Above and beyond!

In my lifetime I have only needed an attorney for a few family law or estate reasons. When this particular case came up I knew we needed someone good. Scott kept us well informed. He even came to our home to interview potential witnesses (on a Sunday!) as well as other locations other than just his o...ffice. He uses any and all resources available.

I hired Scott for a case that was very important to get taken care of in the right way and in a timely manner. Scott was very professional and was very good at keeping me in the loop. He was very knowledgeable and had the answers to my questions and concerns. All in all I would recommend Scott in a ...heartbeat!

Highly Satisfied Client!

Mr. Schroeder made every part of the legal process go very smoothly, and fought for my best interest at all times. His communication was second to none, as well as his willingness to do what was best for me. He is intelligent, highly qualified, and very professional. If you need a great defense or fa...mily lawyer, I would recommend Mr. Schroeder and I would also use him again if I need representation!

Child Custody

I had a previous attorney in my custody battle and felt I was getting demolished. Soon as I fired him and hired Scott the whole thing turned my way. The momentum picked up and he was in charge of the show. I felt more relief after hiring Scott. He is fierce. Needless to say in a short amount of time ...we were signing for me to have Sole Custody.. I recommend to anyone who ask about attorneys. Very pleased and felt the weight off my shoulders once hiring Scott

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.
