As a mother, I never dreamed that I would be looking for legal representation for my teenage son for multiple charges, felony possession of heroin and domestic violence to name a few. What started in the early teen years as seeking advice for handling a possession of marijuana infraction quickly spi...raled into finding someone we could trust with our son's future. Mark guided us through the most complicated, life altering legal battles that accompany the growing epidemic of drug abuse in our community. Mark fought tirelessly for our son to have a fresh start and a future that many teenagers and young adults aren't fortunate enough to experience due to incarceration or death. Mark was the most skilled, responsive and dedicated advocate for our son, and he knew the exact approach to take to avoid guilty pleas and sentences that would have left him with little hope for a future that could still have so much promise. To put your life in someone else's hands is one thing. To put your child's life and future in someone else's hands is something I would never wish on another mother, but in the event you do need help, Mark is so much more than just a brilliant criminal defense attorney, he is actually someone who genuinely cares about his clients.

The initial interview was clear concise communication on their process and fees. His firm set my expectations very well. Explained the various potential outcomes and what would need to be done based on each outcome. As agreed the firm took charge, handled the entire process eloquently, followed up... on progress and ensured I was available for court if required. Attorney Sherman personally called immediately upon resolution with a better than expected outcome. Clearly his reputation, legal skill and familiarity of the court system made the difference.

I was falsely accused of child neglect and needed help fast. I found Mark Sherman's details online and saw he had good reviews. I called him on a Saturday evening and he took my call. He reassured me and advised me to remain calm and not sign anything from the DCF. Sure enough, on Sunday a DCF off...icer visited my home and asked me to sign a "safety plan". Armed with Mark's advice I politely refused until my attorney could review. After that I met with Mark and he advised me on the process DCF would follow whilst they conducted a "full investigation" into my family and the alleged neglect of my child. Mark arranged for DCF to visit my home and interview my family at a time convenient to me. He and an associate were there the whole time providing me reassurance that the DCF Officer did not misinterpret my answers. Mark really knows his stuff! After an hour and a half the DCF Officer announced they would not have to visit again and 45 days later I received a letter stating the alleged child neglect was unsubstantiated and the case was closed. I am so happy I got the best legal representation possible and with Mark's help was able to protect my family from further intrusive attention by DCF.

We only have one reputation. One bad decision, one bad night, one bad choice has the potential of ruining a person's brand for life. This had been the case for our son who was and has been a scholar athlete and a fabulous role model for countless young men who aspired to grow up to be just like him.... That is until he, like many before him and since had his one bad night. I am a 54 year old father of four who has worked with thousands of children. Watching helplessly, or so it has seemed for two long years, as our son was arrested in Fairfield Connecticut and his mug shot popped up whenever you searched his name. It has been both frustrating and in our view beyond unfair to a young man with unlimited potential and promise. Seeing his picture all over social media with police reports that paint him out to be a horrible person confused potential employers , our home community and the schools where he consistently led by example with behavior that would make any parent proud. Mark Sherman has been relentless, dependable, comforting and caring . He delivered not only on his word to do his best; he actually gave our son his 2nd chance . We all learned a great deal through this difficult chapter in our 23 year old son's life. One of the many lessons learned; if any one we know needs and deserves a clean slate , be it family or a friend in need, call Mark Sherman. The man is simply the best. We will be forever grateful.”Smartest investment we ever made. The man is gold!

During one of the toughest times in my life Mark Sherman and his team came to the rescue. They knew exactly what to do and had a plan in place to get the results I needed. They immediately got a restraining order modefid so I could get to be with my children, had the court remove a monitoring device... that was unwarranted and placed on my ankle. In the end, Mark Sherman made a long drawn out process go away and helped get my life back to normal. Thank You Mark Sherman and your team. Would highly recommend him a to anyone going through a domestic dispute.
