Silverman, Thompson, Slutkin & White, LLC Pro

I have referred 3 cases to Silverman-Thompson’s Laura Simmons. Two cases resolved. One pending and another to be referred momentarily. I am a retired attorney who had a civil practice for 38 years. I know quality representation when I see it. Laura is the consummate professional, organized, thorough and not easily intimidated. The cases that settled were resolved for amounts that exceeded expectations. No nonsense, no lawyer speak, no pressure. Would recommend her to anyone seeking representation in auto accidents. Wouldn’t hesitate for a second. L. Greenberg Marriottsville, Md.

There aren’t words to explain my gratitude for Monica. I came to Monica at the most vulnerable and terrifying time in my life when my infant became the center of a sudden, high conflict and contentious custody situation. Her knowledge, experience and expertise in family law is apparent from the beginning. Monica posses a great deal of honesty, integrity and ethical practices. Monica is 100% honest in communication, she is upfront about the reality of the situation whether it is good, bad or ugly. Monica’s quick response time and availability to her clients is second to none. I have been with Monica for three years and will remain with her for the next fifteen years.

Throughout a complex and difficult family law matter, Monica was great to work with and was effective in achieving my goal. She was patient and insightful, applied sound strategies and was extremely valuable to have with me through this journey.

I have repeatedly recommended Monica and would do it again in a heartbeat. Divorces are emotional and complex. It helps to have a lawyer who tells you the truth, not what you want to hear. She is an expert; you must trust her to guide you through the process. Monica has your best interests at heart and will explain the process every step of the way. I could not imagine a better lawyer or firm to work with. She is an excellent communicator, which is critical to getting through the process. Trust her; she is the expert, and you will not be disappointed.

Patrick Seidel and his team were AMAZING! I found Silverman Thompson online in Feb of 2023 praying they were the real deal. My court date was a few months away and I'm facing up to 20 years or take a plea deal. I spoke with Mr. Seidel, immediately after we schduled a office meeting for a few days away. We started the process of sending EVERYTHING I could regarding my case. Seidel immediately began working on my case. I NEVER once felt unheard or pushed off. I never once felt looked down on or felt like i was getting the run around. I was updated via email or phone through every step. Seidel explained the process of what was happening, why, and what were going to do VERY CLEARLY. Seidel questioned everying and anything and did what was best for my case and then some. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Monica and her team absolutely nailed it with my divorce case. They were very responsive, explained the process, and helped me make several tough choices. Gathering documents is the worst part and they even made that process easy on me. I would highly recommend Monica!

When I started the journey of divorce after escaping an abusive marriage I had an attorney that didn't understand me and support me the way I needed. About a year into my divorce I was talking to a friend about how I wanted to find a strong, solid attorney to be able to fight for my sons and I that would have our best interest at heart, as well as, someone who understood our trauma and what we had been through since my old attorney didn't seem to and triggered me a lot. My friend high recommended Monica and her firm and spoke very highly of her. This was reassuring to have such a strong referral after struggling with my past attorney so much. The first phone call I had with Monica I knew she was the one to help my sons and I through this complex divorce. She was so knowledgeable, truthful, and had such compassion that I immediately hired her and it was all uphill from there. It was a pleasure working with Monica and I am so relieved it all worked out with her strong council!

I have worked with Monica Scherer now for almost a year on my miserably difficult and combative divorce case. She was easily accessible by phone or email the entire time, patient and compassionate with my angst, completely on top of things (dates, orders) and found every opportunity to move my case forward. She was strategic and ahead of the game the entire process. Straight forward and honest, she provided realistic expectations. She totally rocked my hearing and coached me throughout negotiations, Her team was on the ball, helpful, supportive and competent. If you want a no nonsense attorney who knows her stuff, is highly experienced, smart as a whip, and has great people skills (and I'm a psychologist saying this)- well you can't do better than Monica!

Monica Scherer is an attorney beyond expectations once could ever imagine. We focused on finding an attorney who had the seasoned experience of seeing the problem through various lens beyond just your own view but a true champion, who was highly respected by those who were opposing attorneys, collaborative attorneys, judges, and all. As a person she is a kind, caring, funny, empathetic, delicate, honest, professional, extremely responsive and knows what to do and more importantly when to do it. She is tactical and she understands factors beyond just the case itself of how those factors could play into the case. You will find yourself missing what you found as a friend when the case is over as she really does become part of your family going through a nasty and often heartbreaking case.
