Do Not Hire Mr. Sharfman

I am a single mother with 3 daughters. I paid Mr. Sharfman thousands of dollars and the end result was that I receive no child support and my ex-husband gets to claim my daughter as a dependent on his taxes every other year even though he doesn't give her a nickel. I just recently contacted child s...upport and they agree that this is not right. He acted like he was totally iintimadated by the other attorney and gave me nothing, but bad advice. I would have been better off with no attorney at all.

The Best in the City

Mr. Sharfman has represented my family for many years. He is professional, timely, funny and exceptional at the laws. We always look to him in any legal matter. You are the best Merv!

Best in Toledo

Mervin represented my son and other friends and family members that I referred to him and everyone had nothing but good things to say about him. He does like to talk alot but is great in court and gets reasonable results. He won't promise the moon - he knows the law and what he can and can't do and... is always honest and up front. As far as being prepared for a case, he is the most detail oriented attorney I've ever met, and I know a lot of them. Your final paperwork spells everything out, so there are no problems in the future. Great attorney whom I would and have recommended over and over.

child custody case

Merv Sharfman agreed to represent me in a child custody case over 20 years ago. As a young mother of two children, My visit to Merv followed a ' cold call' in desperate circumstances. He was truly interested in achieving the best outcome for me given the challenges that I faced. I was confident in hi...s ability to give his best . I trusted him fully and was pleased with the end result. His dedication,frankness and ability will be forever etched in my mind as a critical incident that positively impacted my future.

Love this attorney

Merv handled my divorce and custody case. He was amazing! He was very attentive to my fears and needs. There was never a mystery as to what I was being charged for as he provided me with a detailed bill. I always received copies of notices he sent to my ex husband's attorney. I would recommend h...im to anyone in need of an attorney!!!!
