A father's report

Mark Sherman has done an exceptional job defending my daughter who got involved with a minor offense that turned into a two-year ordeal. I thought it was above and beyond his duty to keep me informed of what was happening with my daughter's case on an ongoing basis. He was patient and tenacious wit...h a client who is emotionally challenged and in need of special attention. I would recommend him to any parent who is looking to have their child defended in any type of prosecution. Thank you very much, Mark.

Howeve...r the law offices of Mark Daniel Sherman work contacted and presented with the case in hope that they could represnt me in court and find favor with the judge. Finaly they were hired they represented me exceptionally. And were able to get me a second chance to complete the program complete the community service hours. I did what was required of me as far as the court was concerned, they represented me well and were even able to get my record cleared after this Matter.

Wilton - Evading Charge (minor property damage)

Mark was very helpful in explaining the law and potential long term implications for an offense one might have logically brushed off as fairly trivial. We are pleased with Mark's handling or our case and helping us avoid a criminal misdemeanor charge that we naively might have just plead guilty to.

C from westport

Mark was always reachable; very knowledgable; and, most importantly, solution-oriented. Mark was highly recommended by my divorce lawyer to help deal with a disorderly conduct charge. Despite my anxiety, Mark was able to explain the process to me in a very thoughtful, deliberate manner. He coordinat...ed my defense with a very capable expert, and ensured that my matter was disposed of in an efficiently and effectively. I hope I don't find myself in a situation where I would need his services again, but if I do, I am confident that he would provide the best representation available.

Best DUI/DWI Lawyer

I was currently entering my third year of graduate school when I made the worst decision of my life. I decided to drink and drive after leaving a bar in Newtown, Connecticut. I was pulled over and arrested on the scene. I couldn’t believe I had just thrown away my entire student career because of a s...tupid and irresponsible decision. I never thought something like this would ever happen to me. The next day I went online and found a DUI lawyer under The Law Offices of Mark Sherman. After leaving a message, within minutes I received a call from Mark, who not only took my case but reassured me that my life wasn’t over. He discussed the case with my family members and reassured them as well that he was going to get the best possible outcome. He was very thorough in answering any questions that I had and also provided me with steps that we were going to take to not only defend my case, but also get the case dismissed. When going through a first arrest, you want reassurance and things made simple for you because you’re under so much stress and pressure. Mark and his staff could not have done a better job of this as their skills, service to my cause, and responsiveness went above and beyond. I cannot speak more highly of Mark who helped to get me where I am today. Any time I had a question he allowed me to call or text his personal cell phone and would answer immediately. He is in my opinion the best DUI lawyer in Newtown Connecticut. As part of the requirements for my school, we must notify them if anything like this happens. Mark worked with my school and smoothed things over. He wrote a letter to my dean explaining my case and reassured them that my case would be dismissed. My school not only felt comfortable with Mark’s letter, but also reassured me that no action would be taken by the school. He not only defended my case, but also defended me to allow me to stay in school. I could not have imagined working with anyone else but Mark and his staff. They honestly went above and beyond to give me a second chance. It has been a year later and my case has officially been dismissed. It is a mistake I know will never occur again and thanks to Mark I was given a second chance. I’m so proud to say that I will be graduating from school in the Spring. I highly recommend Mark Sherman and his Office for representation of anyone who’s been arrested for DUI/DWI around the Newton, Connecticut area.
