Sherin Daniel

It was the first time our family had to hire a lawyer and hopefully the last. The charge was a felony in result of overzealous police shakedown without of a probable cause. Cases like this are tough and require exceptionally skillful lawyering to avoid career damage. After interviewing several highly... recommended attorneys, we went with the law firm of Capitaine, Shellist, Peebles and McAlister. Ms. Sherin Daniel handled our case with support of the firm and she performed superbly – the case got dismissed. Ms. Daniel was intense. We appreciated her aggressive strategy and her strong in court presence. She pursued options we did not know we had and made it clear to the other party that she was ready for a fight. She worked with us as closely as it gets and kept us informed on a direct phone line. Ms. Daniel is a superb attorney and worth every penny.

I worked closely with Sherin during my son's case. It was a very difficult time. She was always confident and reassuring. Always there no matter what. Sherin was a very important part of the team and played a huge role in getting my son's case dismissed. Dedicated, brilliant and never gave up. She be...came part of our family. I would absolutely recommend her no matter how bad your situation is. She is amazing!

Back in January 2014, my 18 year old daughter was charged and arrested for a class II felony, burglary of a habitat. My wife and I were traumatized! I knew that if she had a felony on her record, it would follow her around for the rest of her life. So I began interviewing attorneys trying to find so...meone that would put in the hard work and had my daughter's best interest at heart. I interviewed a dozen other attorneys and all of the gave me the same "song and dance" regarding their approach to the case and what their target outcome would be. After meeting Sherin and Steve Shellist (attorney with whom Sherin works with) I knew that they were the attorneys for us. They did not tell me a target outcome, their outcome was to work on getting it dismissed or reduced to a misdemeanor, and they would not settle for less. They really knew how bad this was for our daughter and they wanted the best outcome we could get for her. My daughter's case was a bit different as well. You see, she was charged along with several other 18 year old kids. All of them had been out fishing in the Galveston bay one night, and were near a house that appeared to be abandoned. The windows were broken out, the door was broken, it had no electricity, etc... She allowed her friends to influence her to go in and look around. This house was not abandoned however. It was not lived in, but the owner who lives in Houston used it as a fishing house on occasion. Our court battle lasted nearly 10 months and Sherin and Steve were able to get my daughter's charged reduced to a misdemeanor. This was amazing considering the evidence they had against her, and also considering the fact that the other kids had all already received felony probation. My daughter was the only one in the group that got a reduced sentence. This was solely because of the hard work and effort of Sherin and Steve. Our family will forever be grateful for what they did for us and I will recommend them to whoever needs help. Sherin was always available for answer my calls or emails and she was the most helpful, patient person ever. What they did was save our daughter's future! My daughter is now continuing her college education and will now be able to obtain employment that will allow her to one day support herself and begin her own family one day. Thank You Sherin for what you did for us!
