About 

Thirty years ago, Scott R. Schomber began his career as a civil trial lawyer, practicing in state and federal courts throughout Florida. Over that time, Scott’s practice has focused on personal injury and wrongful death claims arising out of premise liability, slip and fall, negligent security, automobile accidents, trucking accidents, medical malpractice, and product liability cases.

Scott has also had significant experience in first party insurance claims, coverage disputes, commercial litigation, and commercial landlord-tenant disputes.  In addition, Scott has served as in-house counsel for one of South Florida’s Premier real estate and hospitality companies.  Scott’s unique background as an advocate for individuals, insurance carriers, and businesses allows him to understand and respect the viewpoints of all parties at the mediation table.

In 2016, Scott founded an independent mediation firm, and he carries its philosophies with him into his practice with Upchurch Watson White & Max. As Scott states, “I believe it is the mediator’s role to look at disputes from each party’s perspective, understand their challenges, understand their risks and create an opportunity for the parties to decide the outcome of their dispute.” He recognizes each dispute is unique, and the path to resolution can be varied. “While most mediations are court ordered, I recognize the benefit of pre-suit mediations or early mediations,” he added. “Likewise, I recognize the cost-saving benefits of Zoom mediations; however, I also appreciate the increased insight that a traditional face-to-face mediation brings to more complex disputes.” This insight coupled with Scott’s 30 years of litigation experience allows parties to reach successful results through mediation.

Raised in South Florida. Scott is a lifelong Floridian. He received his Juris Doctor degree at the University of Florida. Scott is an avid fisherman and diver. He has “an exceptional wife and two wonderful sons,” all of whom share their love for South Florida and all it has to offer.
