A True Blessing

I was referred by a friend and what a blessing that was. I am a RN who was falsely charged with Domestic Violence. My license and the custody of my children were all on the line. This was by far a living nightmare. The entire time from the date of consultation to the very end Attorney Sachdev was t...here to guide me every step of the way. With the professional help and expertise of Attorney Sachdev, not only was the truth brought to light but my entire case was dismissed. If you are reading this, my advice for you is, count your blessings and count on Attorney Shireen Sachdev.

Professional and experienced attorney

I interviewed 5 attorneys for my divorce and child custody case before hiring Shireen. Halfway through the initial consultation I immediately knew that I was going to retain her services. She is knowledgeable, articulate and most importantly compassionate. I've dealt with many attorneys through my wo...rk and have always been told that at the end of the day the only ones who win are the attorneys because they get paid no matter what the outcome is of the case. I don't feel this way with Shireen. I think her 15 years of experience as being an OC District Attorney has given her the ability to have empathy for her clients. The day before my domestic violence hearing I called her so upset after reading the documents that my ex filed with the court. She calmed me down and assured me that everything was going to be ok any my voice would be heard. And sure enough the next day she came to court prepared with her notes, list of questions and prepped me to take the stand. She then negotiated an agreement with my ex's attorney that ended up in my favor and I was extremely pleased. I truly believe this was because of her aggressive and assertiveness towards the other counsel. She is professional and extremely hands on with my case and I would refer her to anyone.
