Melissa Glynn Scherer

Melissa Scherer was a God-send. She was so knowledable of sped laws, and in my daughter's case, speech disability. If I had a question about anything, she found the answer. What I liked the most about my experience with Ms. Scherer is that she really empowered me, the parent. She gave me knowledge so... that I could in return be an advocate for my daughter. Look no further, this is the lawyer you want!

Melissa was an ideal attorney for helping us navigate and advocate for our daughter's 504 dyslexia services. It was a challenge and I strongly believe we would not have prevailed without her extreme preparation and exquisite knowledge of the law, child rights in the school, dyslexia, and negotiation... skills. She is a wonderful communicator, knowledgeable, savvy tactician, and above all wants what is best for the child and parent. I would not hesitate to recommend her in the highest regard. Thank you, Melissa!

Family & Special Education Attorney, Melissa Schere has been a blessing to our family. She has an amazing back ground in Diagnostic Education and is very knowledgeable in all areas of Special Education Law. Our son’s situation at School had become frustrating and I knew something wasn’t right when ...it came to my child’s IEP goals and services. Melissa took the time to meet with my family, got to know my son and researched his prior ARD paperwork and IEP goals. Melissa attended all meetings and responded to all school e-mail correspondence. By the end of our Annual ARD we received ALL of the services that my son qualified for but was not receiving prior to her representation. My son has also received additional services, has been maintaining in the General Education setting and has even qualified for the Gifted and Talented Program. As I sit and write this, I am overwhelmed with tears of joy because of all the progress that my son has made, and I know that without Melissa’s help none of this would have been possible for my son. In my son’s old words, he now tells me that he “feels normal again and is happy to be in a regular classroom with friends.” I can’t say enough good things about Melissa and I would absolutely, without a doubt refer her to friends, family and anyone else in need of her services.
