Best Defense

I was charged with multiple felonies and basically facing spending the rest of my life in prison. Scott was my best option because of his background, experience, and knowledge, but on top of that he worked his tail off for me. I write this now not as a felon, but a free man. Scott was worth every cen...t he billed me for.

Thank you, Roy. I am happy that I could help make a positive difference for you and your family.

Director of Compliance

I was in need of a defense lawyer for our Company with only a few days before trial was set to begin. I had been denied by several local firms prior to Mr. Schroeder accepting me as a client. We discussed the case and came to agreement on how to proceed - and ultimately prevailed. So thankful for his... representation.

Highly Satisfied

I hired Scot to help take care of a criminal case in as timely a fashion as possible. He helped make a very bad situation much more tolerable. His communication was timely and considering the circumstances in the world today everything was handled extremely efficient. I would highly recommend Scot...t.

Great work

Scott was a huge asset in handling my out-of-state traffic violation. I would highly recommend his criminal defense work.

Excellent service and a helpful, professional attitude

I hired Scott Schroeder to represent me on a school bus violation. Mr. Schroeder was extremely knowledgeable on this subject. He helped to ease my mind and helped to build a great case for me. I did not end up with the heavy burden of this ticket on my record. Mr. Schroeder was able to supply enough... evidence, along with my case proving in good enough standing already, that I was able to go to driving school and as long as I did not get another driving offense I would be free from the charge. I was very pleased with Scott Schroeder and his services. He is not only a very good attorney but he is helpful and has compassion. I would highly recommend him if you are looking for an attorney.

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.
