EXCELLENT AND KNOWLEDGEABLE ATTORNEY

Mrs. Sharretts is by far one of the best attorneys in Texas. I have dealt with many attorneys in the past but none like her. She possesses great knowledge and is very helpful and considerate with her clients. She helped me get the best outcome on my DWI 3rd offense, she always kept me updated on the ...case and was always accessible. Mrs. Sharretts addressed all of my issues and concerns in a timely manner and to me that means a lot, having your attorney just a phone call or e-mail away. I would recommend her to anyone who wants an honest, excellent and professional representation.

More than just a lawyer

Mrs. Sharretts goes above and beyond the call of duty. She really cared about my situation even when i was in jail and believed me from day one. money was just a technicality to her. i cant say enough about her. Words cant describe the piece of mind she gave me and my family. She even took care of ot...her legal issues i had that she didnt have to. i have full faith that my case will get thrown out due do her diligence and hard work. Toni if your reading this, you are the best! and i have dealt with a lot of lawyers.

Great Lawyer!!

I highly recommend Toni to anyone that needs a good, hard-working attorney. I was charged with felony failure to render aid after a kid ran in front of my car. I sat in jail for 3 months with the mother of this child saying I intentionally hit him. I did not. This kid ran out in front of my car wh...ile I was driving the speed limit to go to the grocery after school. When I stopped my car to see what had happened and if I actually hit this teenager, I was threatened by a huge group of men by a convenience store in a bad area of town and my babies were in the car with me. I looked back and the little boy had gotten up and was talking and laughing. I couldn't believe this nightmare. Toni went to the scene, took pictures, showed the boy, his mother and the witnesses were all lying about what happened to get money. Toni presented this to the grand jury and got the case no-billed. I cannot thank her enough for getting me out of this mess. I never expected an attorney to take such care and interest in my case. My court appointed told me I should just plead out to a 3rd degree felony because I could not win. Toni won my case for me.

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."
