If you are reading this it is because you need help immediately... call Attorney Sherman right now and follow his advice. He knows how to protect your family. Even if you are innocent you need Mr. Sherman on your side. Having a lawyer made our situation better (not worse). DCF and their "experts" ...will suspect someone is guilty of something. Parents are automatically suspected as well. The DCF nurse privately told us that every family needs a lawyer when DCF is involved. Just concentrate on taking care of your family, and let Mr. Sherman handle DCF. Follow his advice and trust him. He is amazing. DCF started investigating our family at 10pm. I called Attorney Sherman at midnight, and he called back immediately with step-by-step instructions. The next morning Mr. Sherman started making phone calls to the right people at DCF. He planned intelligently to stay 2 or 3 steps ahead of the game the whole time. Attorney Sherman worked around the clock (weekends too) to get the accusations dropped. Afterwards, he followed up with DCF and the police to make sure that all investigations were really 100% closed. He has a great relationship with law enforcement, and he knows how to make a bad situation better.

My son was charged with possession by the Ridgefield police this past April. Since my son was 18, the police told him he did not have to tell his parents and advised him to just pay his fine and his charge would just disappear. This was terrible advice and it was wrong. They failed to tell him tha...t his license would be suspended and there would be a record of his offense. Mark Sherman was able to re-open the case and instead of my son losing his license and having a permanent record for the offense, Mark was able to get the case dismissed after my son did community service and attended a victim impact panel. This was the right result. My son was able to learn a lesson instead of having a potentially damaging record affect his bright future.

John Steinbeck said, "I am impelled, not to squeak like a grateful and apologetic mouse, but to roar like a lion out of pride in my profession." This is what you're going to get when you work with Mark and his very professional and capable staff, lions. If you're looking for a lawyer, then you'...ll need the best advocate you can get. Fortunately for you, you don't need to look much further. Here's what Mark and his associates have done for us: - Helped secure a dismissal of breach of peace charge for our child - Helped secure a perfectly matched seasoned court expert to add credibility to our case - Answered our calls at all hours of the day to help calm our parental nerves - Followed up with us on every detail of the case We found Mark via a referral from a friend and we're more than happy it worked out that way. Do yourself a favor and at least have an initial consultation. They're also happy to assist in referring you to a more appropriate attorney for your case if that's the situation.

My nearly 18 year old son recently found himself accused of sexual assault, an obviously serious and scary criminal matter which put his life and future at risk. No one in our family had any prior experience with matters like this, but thankfully we were directed to Attorney Mark Sherman as someone ...who would be able to help us, guide us, and represent us throughout a delicate and intensive process. Attorney Sherman's experience and practical and compassionate approach were a godsend. Thankfully, the matter was resolved favorably -- a full dismissal without trial. I could not imagine anyone with whom we could have been in better hands than Attorney Sherman. He handled the matter with a firm sensitivity -- treating us as if my son were his son. Our family is forever in his debt! -- Parent (Greenwich, CT)

We live in a world where the laws, police, and the general public are stacked against you. I did not think this way until I turned my back for a moment and found this to be true. That is why I hired Mark Sherman to clear my good name! I got charged with Risk of Injury while shopping ...at Walmart in Old Saybrook. Now how to handle the serious charges? I did a google search of the charges and found Mark Sherman's Law firm. On his site, he had a detailed explanation of what the charges where and how to handle them. So I called and spoke with Mark Sherman. He gave me a quick summary of what is going on with the law and his experience in handling such cases. Given the seriousness of the charges I was not going to leave this to a novice. So I hired Mark Sherman. Mark Sherman then laid out a strategy to handle my case as to get the charges dropped. As it turned out Mark Sherman was right. His strategy used in court continuously built a better and better standing for me which lead to a nolle of the charges. In short, I am glad I hired Mark Sherman and recommend his firm to anyone.
