Highly recommend!

I can't say enough about the Professionalism that Scott Sommerdorf exuded in the case he worked with me on. I have never had to hire a lawyer to defend me in a lawsuit before and feel very fortunate to have found Scott to represent me. He calmed my nerves and made sure I was always in the loop as t...o the progress of the case. He would patiently explain what ,why & how things were being handled as they were. Even though the case took years, I never felt his determination waiver. During depositions, I felt that I not only had an experienced, knowledgable lawyer in the room with me but also had someone that cared about me as a person. I was extremely glad he was representing me and not the other way around. His expertise & diligence kept the case from going to trial and the case ended as a WIN for me. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a lawyer.

I stongly recommend Scott Sommerdorf.

The only time I have been in need of any Attorney was 2007. With luck I was introduced to Scott Sommerdorf for defense. Our case was a long 2 year ordeal in which Scott always keep me appraised of anything that came about. And he was very patient with me as I had not idea this could go on so long.... His professionalism, kindness and concern for me made me feel like I was in good hands, that I was going to be OK. His way of making one feel comfortable in an extremely stressful situation was always welcomed. Very knowledgeable in what he is doing made for a great ending to our case, which never seen the courtroom. His expertise and handling of our case was so well conducted. I could not have been in better hands.
