Gerald Herbert Scher

I tripped on a damaged sidewalk, fell and was injured in 2008. When the city denied my claim for medical expenses, I decided it was time to sue. I got Mr Sher's name from another attorney who could not handle the case. Mr.Scher took my case under a deadline situation, and took it under the conditions... that only if we won would there be any fees charged. This was fair to me. There was an amazing amount of paperwork that I had to fill out, and he and his office walked me through the entire process. Fortunately I kept meticulous records of everything that happened to me, including photos of the area in which I fell. This helped immensely in filling out all the necessary forms, and in securing a settlement. Mr Scher was professional, courteous, and caring. He kept me up to date throughout the length of the suit and it was settled out of court in our favor this summer (2010.) The money I received will pay back all the medical expenses, Mr Scher's third and his expenses, and then some. I was very satisfied with Mr Scher's efforts in my behalf, and would not hesitate to work with him again. In fact, I now consider him "my lawyer" and have absolute trust in his abilities to either solve my legal issues himself or to refer me to another attorney who can.
