Fake promises

Hired him payed up front. Before hiring talked to me and basically said my case was a slam dunk. After full payment done he never talk to me only his secretary at times. I did all the work I when to my legal aid got a statement from her and coward it. I took my speak letter and delivered it myself. I... got final dis cualificación and all he could tell me was we have to prove you are fit for the kid it doesn’t matter if the incident happened or not. He said it’s their call and nothing he can do about it. Why didn’t he just said this before horsing and be honest he just took my money and understood I really wanted the job and told me what I wanted to hear.

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.

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.

civil service disqualification

Mr. Kevin sheerin was obtained by me for a disqualification from a civil service position. His background knowledge and specialty in civil service appeals was very in depth which made the process go very smooth. He prepared a very thorough case and the decision was overturned.
