Saved my Job

When I was given notice that I was being eliminated from the hiring process of my current job, I went to Sheerin Law for help. Kevin Sheerin and his staff were more than helpful and understanding of my circumstances. I had already been told I had been hired and that I was start the academy within th...e next week, but then the rug was pulled out from under me when I was informed that I was being eliminated from the list under entirely ridiculous pretenses. Despite the fact I needed his legal help within the next few days and that I came to him on a Friday, Mr. Sheerin was more than willing to work over the weekend, and help me put together an undeniable appeal to the civil service. Mr. Sheerin realized that the impending decision on my appeal carried incredible weight involving my immediate future and really the rest of my life. His diligence over the finest details of my appeal, ultimately lead to me being put back on the list for my class. I highly recommend that if you are ever in a similar situation as I was, that you look towards Mr. Sheerin for help. It was worth every penny to get myself on the job. I am now set for the rest of my life because of Kevin Sheerin and his staff and I couldn't be more grateful.

Civil Service Disqualification

I met with Kevin in September 2015. When I first met him I'm sure that he saw that I was feeling down and out. I had just received my disqualification from a law enforcement agency I had applied to. I explained my concerns and frustrations to Kevin regarding my disqualification. He assured me tha...t he would do his best to help me with my case and then two months later I received notice stating that my disqualification has been reversed and that I'm clear to continue. I couldn't have asked for any better help with this matter such as the help I received from Kevin. I definitely recommend him to the next.. Thank you Kevin

Great lawyer.

Mr Sheerin is an outstanding lawyer and was very helpful. I had a long journey ahead of me but he was there every step of the way and helped reverse the disqualification I received from the NYPD. Was there whenever I needed him and couldn't ask for a better lawyer. Thank you very much Mr Sheerin. Hig...hly recommend.

Professional Advise

I contacted Mr. Sheerin regarding a legal matter and he took the time to go over the topic of discussion in a clear concise manner. He assured me that I have the right to follow through with my case against the plaintiff because it is within my legal right to do so. The defendant was attempting to... obstruct me from filing my case claiming that the case would cause employment termination.

Disqualification from NCPD (medical)

I was disqualified from the NCPD due to an orthopaedic injury of my leg. I came to Mr. Sheerin looking for assistance in my appeal. He was extremely helpful and knowledgable. After retaining him as my attorney we were able to reverse the disqualification.
