Shari Jo Reich

Shari made the process overly adversarial and toxic, she fought over everything which delayed the entire process to no one's benefit but her billable hours. If you want a wrecking ball taken to any hope of coparenting or getting along with your ex once this unpleasant process is over - HIRE ANOTHER... LAWER !

Sheri jo Reich is an outstanding professional, we recently went through a very disgusting vile custody battle that got entirely way out of control, Sheri jo told us all along no matter what to stick to our guns and always tell the truth, I will admit never going thru a custody battle I had no clue wh...at to expect and at times the other sides council would make these off the wall allegations that were so far fetched she may have well said I'm an alien. If your looking for a lawyer that will lie cheat and play dirty shes not for you. She is very honest and upstanding her character is of the highest standard. And with our not so impressive legal system it was very hard at times because you want someone to stand up and scream are you kidding me!!! But Sheri jo is like a master at chess she chooses her moves wisely and when the time is right like a heat seeking missile she hits her target, she often says I've been doing this for 27 yrs I know what I'm doing trust me. Well we did and I cannot ever ever ever thank her enough even though its hard to trust that something that you cannot control and is such a twisted system will ever turn out as it should she fights for it, and for the truth. She is the one that will fight for you day and night. Sheri jo is a godsend, and when your in trial with her it's just like watching one of those tv show lawyers, you think to yourself wow I'm glad she is my lawyer and I'm not on the other side of that. The moral of my story is if your reading this hire her you will not be disapointed. From the bottom of my heart words could never ever ever describe the debt of gratitude I owe you Sheri jo you've brought my family back together and got us through the worste possible nightmare that one could not ever even imagine. She's not just your average lawyer by any means a cut way above the rest!

I retained Shari Jo to handle a post-divorce custody petition. My ex-husband sued to change custody because I was moving to a new town with my new husband. I consulted other attorneys before retaining Shari Jo, and even had to fire my previous counsel because he did not give me the clear answers to q...uestions that I needed to move forward with my life and raise my children. Shari Jo did. From the first moment I consulted her she was up front with me about what I could expect, what would work, and what would not. She was confident, and everything that she said should happen in the case happened. She gave me different advice than some of the other attorneys I talked to, and in the end, her analysis was the correct one. I chose well. She is reputed as one of the best family law attorneys in Buffalo, and I would go as far as saying she is the best. The custody suit was the most emotionally difficult thing I have ever went through, much worse than my divorce. She did the only thing a lawyer can do in that situation: she had my back at every turn and won. The case resolved on even better terms than I had hoped or expected. Instead of losing time with my children, I received more time. She kept me informed at all times, was responsive to my inquiries, and fought for me and my children. She has my lasting gratitude.

Shari Jo is my attorney and represented me throughout my child custody case. What you can expect from her is woman who will dilligently fight for her clients rights to the bitter end and beyond! She is an INCREDIBLEY cunning and very creative attorney who gets results and is very cost effective! She ...did an OUSTANDING job in my case with the exact results I wanted! If you're a single father living Erie County I can tell you first hand that the odds ARE NOT IN YOUR FAVOR. Shari Jo Reich is the counter to that! I highly recommend her! In fact if your a single father I would tell you straight out there simply is NO OTHER CHOICE! Shari looks at every aspect of your individual case from the very first day that you meet with her to formulate the best possible outcome for you. She doesn't pull ANY punches or sugar coat the facts. I personally will NEVER STEP FOOT in Family Court with out Shari Jo as my attorney! The time to find out how good your lawyer really is isn't when your standing in front of a judge.

In Western New York Shari Jo Reich is peerless in Family Law! Aside from the top-notch preparation, breadth of her knowledge and speedy communication/response to any questions or event, I was impressed with the respect everybody in the Erie County Family Court showed to Shari Jo every time we were th...ere. My father was a town justice for 10 years and he has remarked to me that some of the worst prepared people he came across were attorneys. Shari Jo and her partner Laura Emerson are the antithesis of that. To use an "Old West" expression: They will head the competition off at the pass. . . The results received from SJ's efforts when I petitioned for full custody in Spring of 2010 were everything that I sought. By August the case was pretty much sown up. Thanks Shari Jo. You're the best.
