Excellent, professional, and very helpful.
Sheereen has been an excellent professional to help me manage a closing that was getting too complicated. Her professional approach and knowledge, was key in resolving the issues. Thank YOU Sheereen. You are good!

Approachable, considerate, and efficient lawyer.
Sheereen isn't the typical lawyer. Sheereen was very friendly and understanding to my concerns. Handled my case in a very professional manner, kept me informed through the process. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking legal advice on real estate matters.

My Chapter 7 lawyer
Ms Sheereen is a good lawyer. I started my Chapter 7 case by myself and I didn’t fill out case forms properly. Ms Sheereen took over my case and got me out of trouble of my mistakes I made. I would recommend Ms Sheereen Middleton again.

Please, look elsewhere!
I scheduled a bankruptcy consultation three days in advance for Monday, February 23, 2026 at 10:00 AM. The appointment was confirmed. I did not receive a call at the scheduled time. The first call came approximately 28 minutes late. During that time, I attempted to contact the office multiple time...

Highly disappointed and let down
I only wish I had the good fortune of meeting and retaining the attorney everyone is speaking so highly of. My husband and l retained Ms. Middleton to handle our bankruptcy. What was suppose to be a joint filing became a single filing in my husband's name only. During the process we were unable to pe...
Thank you for sharing your honest expression for our brief dealing. I apologize that when I was in the hospital you weren’t given notice until after I was released. I was unable to communicate during that time as my health did not allow me. It was a blessing to be in a position to try to help you and your husband. Our disconnect transpired as your husband was my only point of contact and led me to understand he was filing separately. I wish we could have been introduced, and had you join in our first consultation back in December of 2020 to know you wanted to be included. I respect your feedback and appreciate your concerns and will be mindful moving forward to be better equipped to help my future clients. I wish you and your family all the best and I’m excited for your new beginnings.
"I had the pleasure of having Sheereen as my student when she took several of my courses at St. Thomas Law, including bankruptcy. As a student Sheereen was a hard worker. After graduation she has kept in touch and I have had the privilege of watching her career develop. I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. This attorney is knowledgeable, innovative and dedicated to the practice of law. I supervised Sheereen for more than two years and enthusiastically endorse her."
