Scherer is a partner at Conrad & Scherer which specializes in commercial litigation and medical malpractice defense. Scherer, a member of the American Academy of Hospital Attorneys, represents hospitals in the South Florida area. Scherer also has been involved in Florida development projects. He was a partner with magnate H. Wayne Huizenga in downtown Fort Lauderdale’s controversial $32 million New River Village apartment project in the early ‘90s. Project neighbors lost a suit that they brought to try to stop the development from being built on parkland along the New River. The developer arranged to lease the parkland from Broward County but repeatedly failed to pay their rent.
