Posted by anonymous | April 01, 2013 | Mediation

Settled a recalcitrant case with favorable terms

Throughout my case, Mr. Shernoff was highly competent and professional. Initially he communicated very honestly the merits and difficulties of my case; his confidence and competence put me at ease. He easliy grasped and prioritized all the detailed facts of the case, and was very familiar with h...ow the law applied to my specific situation. He was brilliant during mediation, reading the different players accurately and responding accordingly. During the following negotiations, he was patient, firm, and successful! His suport staff is professional, organized, knowledgeable, and friendly.

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.
