I must have searched about 30 law offices in my area before finding the Scharff Law Firm’s website. I knew immediately I would be in good hands.  Amily was such an amazing person to work with.  Not only did we get the outcome we were hoping for, but she walked me through every step in detail to make sure I understood the process and felt safe while doing so.  The care and attention she takes cannot be matched!  Anyone needing representation should 100% call.  I cannot thank her enough!

-Britain Hayhurst

I can’t say enough good things about Amily McCool at Scharff Law. Amily was tremendous in helping a loved one fight charges for an accident where she wasn’t driving. Law enforcement had it wrong, but Amily helped make it right. Her dedication and expertise were evident throughout the process. In another instance, Amily successfully helped a family member reduce a reckless driving charge. Her professionalism and commitment to us was truly outstanding. We felt calm because we knew we were in good hands the entire time! I highly recommend Amily McCool and Scharff Law for anyone in need of exceptional legal support. Thank you, Amily, for your incredible work and support!

-Sally Price

Amily McCool is smart, compassionate, and highly professional. My case took months to run its course. Talk with her. Follow her advise from day one. She will ensure the best outcome, but you must listen and follow her advise. Don’t try to navigate the law on your own. She provided me with advise I really needed and the compassion to help keep me level headed. Amily was successful in my case. I assure everyone she will do everything she can to help you get the best outcome.

-Stuart Fraser

I highly recommend Amily McCool from the Scharff Law Firm. I was unsure about what lawyer I should choose and like most people I googled law firms. After doing my due diligence I decided on the Amily of the Scharff Law Firm.

From the start to finish Amily was personable, professional and very easy to work with. Always there if I had questions or concerns right up to my court date.

She was able to get my case dismissed! I was very very happy. Thank you Amily!

-Gene Million

Amily is extremely intelligent, thoughtful, caring, compassionate and thorough. I am incredibly grateful for her diligence in working on my case, the time she spent helping me, and the resources she made available to me. She really cares about her clients and their success.
