Amazing Attorney

My trial attorney Sharon Scanlan was amazing on my case. When we went to Court it seemed that she knew everyone and was really well liked. At my deposition she was really firm with the other lawyer but I was glad because I was really injured. Ms Scanlan Is a kind person and a great lawyer. I would ...trust her with any case my family would have.

Compassionate and caring

Ms. Scanlan did a great job on my case. I was very nervous for the deposition and she took all the time I needed to not only calm me down, but empower me to do a great job. She also did an awesome job in negotiating my case so I got everything I was entitled to without having to go to trial.

New York Construction Injury

I was working on a job site in Brooklyn when I fell off a scaffold. I was very badly injured. When Sharon Scanlan took over my case my first impression was she is wonderful at what she does. My construction case was tough, but Sharon was thoughtful and thorough. I never felt like I was one of many cl...ients, she made me feel like a priority. She has a sincerity about her that was really awesome, and put my mind at ease. I am really grateful for her hard work and the result of my case.

Sharon did a fantastic job on my case, getting me more than I ever could have hoped for. She was honest with me, explained things in a way I could grasp, followed through with whatever she’s told me she would do, and tenacious as hell in the court. I am so happy she was my lawyer, and I highly recomm...end her services to anyone looking for representation! Thank you, Sharon, you rock!

An Excellent trial Attorney

When I was seriously injured in a fall, I hired Sharon Scanlan as my Trial Attorney. She exceeded all of my expectations. It was great watching Sharon work the Courtroom. She is tough in Court but also a kind person. Her vivaciousous personality is a big asset to her intelligence and experience. wa...s so happy with how my case worked out. It exceeded my expectations. I would reccomend Sharon to anyone who has a serious case.

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.
