Mark Sherman was great through the whole process. He was able to meet me on a Sunday night knowing my concerns since this was my first run in with the law. I was very concerned. He was really good about following up with and prepping me before the court hearing as well as going over what's to come af...ter he court hearing. He was good about listening to my needs and wants and was able to make them happen!! I would recommend him if you ever come in contact with a DUI/DWI.

Mark assisted me through the most difficult time of my professional career. He referred me to a defense attorney who guided me to the US Attorney's Office. I then assisted the US Attorney and their team to arrest a criminal who I worked for. He ultimately confessed and was sentenced to jail. Then... he assisted with the civil matter in this case whereby we negotiated a settlement that was significantly less than what the plaintiffs were seeking. I could not recommend Mark or his team more. They were professional, responsive, and successful at every turn.

We were at a loss. Our son is a good kid and we did not have any experience with the judicial system. a google search revealed several firms in our area, but of course, trouble hits on the weekends. Mark Sherman was available. He called us immediately and met with us right away. This alleviated ...a lot of our stress and anxiety. Our son was charged with possessing a Fake ID and the administration at WHS involved the Wilton Police Department. Mark was able to get our case downgraded to a non-judicial case and we did not have to appear in court. We are extremely grateful for his help and expertise.

There I was one evening, in a parking lot in Stamford Ct. calling the police as I was verbally threatened and physically intimidated . Imagine my surprise, when the incident ended with me in the back of a police SUV, cuffed and charged with Breach of Peace! I explained to the three officers wh...at occurred and they questioned the assailant. ( I have never been arrested as I am fast approaching 60 years of age) . I understand it's my word against his and there were no witnesses , however it was explained to me by the police that I could let it go and walk away or we would both be arrested!. Talk about a real time civics lesson, I mean really, who expects to get arrested for calling the police for a legitimate reason? I guess 99.9% of people would walk away, but I wanted satisfaction and honestly thought the police were bluffing. I went all in , and was arrested for breach and the other guy for breach of the peace and threatening, so I felt for the moment I got some measure of satisfaction that he got hit with 2 charges Like I said, I'm a solid citizen who was cuffed, finger printed and they took my mug shot all for a Class B misdemeanor. Now you have the story. I am from out of state and don't know any Connecticut lawyers so I went online. Attorney Sherman's website was my first hit and I liked the way he explained (I am quoting his website word for word) how "Breach of Peace" , " is frequently charged In Connecticut. It is a broadly applied, catch - all criminal charge:" Defining, what to me was a complex issue with a simple explanation, put my mind at ease and indicated to me Attorney Sherman probably deals with these in his sleep, at least I hoped so. I called him as early as 7 A.M. the next morning and I was delighted he called back rather quickly, which given my anxiety level was important to me. I saw him later in the day and hired him. We went thru the details of what happened and he said (subject to seeing the police report ) that ultimately" this charge would go away". He got the police report as soon as it was available (can take several days) . Now he had all the facts and he explained to me the various range of outcomes from "Nolle" to the dreaded 6 months in jail I was overly paranoid about despite the fact that he assured me my worst case scenario would be to take a diversionary program which keeps you out of jail. He also said we are not going to burn an "AR" on this! Clearly Attorney Sherman knew his stuff, he articulated the issues well. However, and this is why I mention my irrational paranoia, because I needed more than just an attorney. I needed some emotional support, some "hand holding". I have never been arrested, let alone for committing NO crime, so you can imagine my anxiety was thru the roof. I called Mark several times asking all kinds of questions. He always returned my calls, he spoke to my wife, he was always patient and supportive. My case was not dismissed after my first appearance . Sitting in the courthouse conference room after that first appearance I felt like Dr. Thorndike on the elevator in the movie High Anxiety. Next appearance was 3 weeks later and in that time I read more about breach of peace than I care to admit which only made more nervous. Fortunately as Mark indicated was likely, the case was Nolled. If something like this happens to you, don't call the police, go to the police station and make the complaint. Bottom line, I wholeheartedly recommend Attorney Sherman, he's a excellent lawyer and psychologist as well, LOL.
