Helped me avoid my life spiraling away

Atty Sheehan did me right and I can't thank him enough. He cared about helping me. I made a mistake that could have cost me so many things in my life. The fear of what I was facing was more than enough to inspire a change in my life but I needed to figure out how to get through the legal process firs...t. Chris was amazing, he explained all my choices in the process but also the multiple outcomes of what each choice might lead to next. He made a confusing, scary process something that I could understand. I was scared enough as it was so having confidence in my attorney made a huge difference. Thanks to Chris I was able to get probation when I could have easoly been locked up. I've made big changes in my life and it has all been possible because of the second chance that Chris helped me get. I'll always be gratefull. If you can get him as your attorney do it.

Worst person I've ever had to deal with

He never once returned my calls. He knows that I'm mentally disabled and he still abused me and took advantage of me by lying about what the outcome of my case would be. he verbally abused me over the phone the one time he did finally call back and he hung up on me after getting mad at me because he ...lied. He never informed me of what my options were for court, he never informed me of what I could have done to prepare for my case, and he never explained to me what was going on before my case, or after. Plus he tricked me into taking a plea. He was extremely rude to me, and kept lying to me over ad over again about what would happen, and then denied all of it, and acted like I was the jerk who lied to him. If you eve get this lawyer, immediately request a new one based on other peoples experiences. He is just a horrible person in general. I pray for the poor people to have him forced upon them.
