Best Attorney you can have

Sharon Scanlan was my attorney for an accident I had while working. I was seriously injured and the person that hit me would not take responsibility for their actions. My trial attorney Sharon went to court and fought really hard for me. I am thrilled with my case result and the hard work she put in....

So Lucky to Have This Attorney !

I am only 18 so I did not know anything about the whole lawsuit thing. Sharon Scanlan was my lawyer for a really bad car accident where I was a passenger and me and my friends all got hurt. Sharon got me the most money of everyone for my injuries. I was so lucky to have Sharon as my trial attorney....

So Glad I hired this Attorney!

I am a journeyman in electric work. I got badly hurt at a construction site in NYC, but there were no witnesses to my accident so all the defendants worked to try to dismiss my case. I researched online for attorneys for my case and I was so lucky that I got this woman Sharon Scanlan. At first I wa...s worried she might not know as much about constriction but boy was I wrong! She knew so much and at the depositions she destroyed the Defendants. My case reaolved when we went to Court and I am so happy. Sharon Scanlan is such an awesome attorney-you can't go wrong with her!!

Unbelievable Trial Attorney

I hired Jacoby and Meyers to handle my car accident case where I was injured by a teenage distracted driver. I cannot tell you how pleased I was with the firm and my trial attorney Sharon Scanlan. She was as so talented in the courtroom and kept me updated on my case all the time even during Covid. I... feel so lucky that Sharon Scanlan was my trial attorney. The BEST !

Women for Wendy

Sharon Scanlan represented my disabled, blind sister in a personal injury suit. In spite of many delays due to a fugitive cab driver, bankruptcy claims and finally COVID, the case finally yielded success. Sharons tenacity, patience and compassion for the disenfranchised was the driving factor behind ...my sister receiving full compensation.

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.
