Fabulous Attorney Fabulous Result

I hired Sharon Scanlan to be my trial attorney when I was a victim of a hit and run accident. I went to Finkelstein & Partners and asked to have Sharon assigned to my case. WOW did she get the job done! I was so impressed with Sharon's courtroom skills. It was so cool to watch her in action. From d...ay 1 she had my back and fought for me. I hope I never need an attorney again but if I do, Sharon is my first call.

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!!

Positive Vibe & Talented Attorney

I was injured in a horrible slip and fall on ice accident during Covid. I am so glad I had Sharon Scanlan as my attorney. She was such a positive attorney! She gave me hope from day one. She did not accept the first 5 offers until I got a big settlement. She was so talented and prepared. WOW !! ...Best Attorney Ever !!!!

Best Attorney Ever !

I was seriously hurt last year in a bad construction accident. My trial attorney Sharon Scanlan sued all these big corporations- none of them took responsibility -so my attorney did all this investigation and tons of depositions until she proved their negligence- she was a bulldog but in a good way. ...She was so kind and compassionate- best lawyer ever !

My Trial Angel

I had the best trial attorney on my case ! Sharon Scanlan had so much knowledge about my tractor trailer industry and represented me in a case where a forklift driver injured me. Sharon was there every step of the way for me and my family. She worked really hard on my case and was so impressive in th...e courtroom when my case went to trial. I never had any delays due to covid either. Sharon was my trial angel.

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.
