Incredible!

When I first talked to Courtney she made me feel so comfortable telling my sexual harassment story. She encouraged and sympathized with me and made me feel safe. She is extremely knowledgeable, strong, and fierce! Her firm Shegerian Conniff is full of amazing, talented, and passionate attorneys that ...will fight for you! I will always be appreciative of them for helping resolve my case.

The Best of the Best

Cortney Shegerian is a brilliant and devoted attorney. While working together, she always made me feel like the results of my case were personally important to her. She fought for me and had more empathy than I ever could have imagined any attorney giving. I am extremely thankful - I would not have m...ade it through this without her, and I give her my highest recommendation. Thank you, Cortney!

Extremely kind and helpful Employment Lawyer

Cortney Shegerian is one of the best lawyers I've ever encountered. I met with her and her partner, Heather, at a really vulnerable time for me. She was extremely helpful in explaining the relevant law regarding my potential case against my employer and provided advice on how to best protect my job. ...She was focused on what was the best outcome for me instead of what was a potentially beneficial outcome for her. And she was super patient and kind throughout the meeting. I would recommend her and her partner, Heather, to ANYONE who has been wrongfully fired, harassed or discriminated against at their job. Or to anyone who thinks that they might be getting wrongfully fired, harassed or discriminated against.
