Amazing Lawyer,Thank You So Much

My man got himself in quite a jam which resulted in him being charged with a 1st degree felony. It was a very scary situation,but over the course of a few months she worked with the prosecutors and got his charge reduced to a state jail felony,time served. Which was the best offer he could've got,he ...should be released in 2-12 days and me&my man's family could not be more happier/thankful.She definitely knows what she is doing&does not stop until the job is done. I would definitely recommend her if you need a smart,hardworking lawyer. On behalf of me,and his family,Thank you so much Toni!

I could not have done this without Toni

Toni was there for me from the start. I was dealing with a fairly complicated and emotional child support case and I had absolutely no idea what to do. I happened upon her online and I emailed her immediately. She responded very quickly, and right away I could tell she was amazing and knew what she w...as doing! She had a genuine interest in getting to know my case and what exactly was going on and gave me advice and tips and helped me all along the way. I ended up getting exactly what I wanted to happen with the situation. I am very grateful and appreciative of all the time and effort she put forth to help me and guide me through one of the most stressful times in my life. Definitely will be going to her again if ever need be. Thank you Toni! I couldn't have gotten through without you.

She kept me sane as we cleared the title to my property and during the sale of the property

Toni was right there when I needed her on my first call. She spent a ton of time with me over a period of weeks, both on the phone and via emails. I had property to sell in Cleveland, Texas but I live on the other side of the USA, and my partner had died. I had to clear the title, and it was a me...ss as there was no probated will. She taught me all about the laws and really got me through the mess I was in. She kept me sane when I thought I'd go nuts. We were able to clear the title and sell the property, closing with no problems. If you need a realtor or a real estate lawyer in that part of Texas that she serves, you can't do better. She is full of energy, experience and knowledge. I'm so lucky to have found her.

Divorce

I went to Mrs. Sharretts after I had seen her before in another Divorce proceeding that she was on. I came to her and explained my case and she went right to work. She left no stone unturned. She requested document after document and questions after questions for me to explain. I felt so confident af...ter all we went through even after being overwhelmed.

dismissed 8 of charges

Hello i was just recently dismissed from a DWI and escape from custody charges , and got my evading arrest charge reduced to a speeding ticket. I had BAC results reflecting marijuana and alcohol and had class c paraphernalia charge and a speeding ticket and no tdl ticket dismissed at the small court ...also. Mrs Toni worked very hard to help clear my record to help my immigration status improve and not be revoked for having all these charges. Im am forever grateful for al the work and effort she put into this case and can assure you she will do the same for anyone in need. She is the best and i would recommend her to everyone.

Litigation lawyer | Jan 17

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Do not let her quiet demeanor fool you, because this lawyer is a fighter well versed in the law who gives no quarter. Understated and soft spoken, opponents learn quickly she has the skills and persuasion to win her argument."

Family lawyer | Apr 01

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer.without hesitation. I have been practicing for over 30 years and I have seldom encountered the level of professionalism displayed by Toni Sharretts in what was a very difficult matter. She is wise in the practice of law, a rare quality. She is tenacious, up to date on the intricacies of the law, and procedurally very knowledgeable. Her zeal at defending her client's interests is to be commended, but her tempering the zeal with intelligence and understanding of the matter is exceptional."
