Extraordinary lawyer

Lane is a fantastic lawyer on a number of levels. She knows the law inside and out, and she also knows and is respected by the judges and prosecutors she appears in front of on your case, which is equally important. She is a warm, empathic person which is so important when confronted with being arres...ted for dui and all the consequences that can follow. She is a good person and a great lawyer.

Ms. Scherer is an excellent attorney. Not only is she very passionate and empathetic, she is academically brilliant and commands the courtroom. I would recommend her to all my friends and family who are in dire situation.

Great DUI attorney

One of the best. She is smart, hardworking, and she knows the law, the judges and the prosecutors. She is extremely well prepared and kept me informed the whole time. If you want the best, and someone who actually cares about your case, hire Lane.

Amazing attorney and individual

Upon receiving a DUI in California, I was recommended to the Law Offices of Lawrence Taylor. Within 24 hours of my call, I was immediately contacted by Lane Scherer, and her incredible team. Lane is an exceptional attorney, incredibly knowledgeable, and moreover, an amazing individual. She treated... me with compassion, care, kindness, and gave my case the full attention it deserved. Lane was always available to answer my questions almost immediately - and her incredible team was there to support me during the entire proceedings. I also cannot speak highly enough about her paralegal, Araseli. I tell the two of them repeatedly that they allowed me to live my life to the fullest during this hectic experience. The outcome on my case was fantastic - and I owe it all to her. One of the charges was even dropped completely! I am eternally grateful to Lane, and I recommend her in the highest regard.

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.
