Helped me with my Dependency Case

She's by far the most understanding attorney I've come acrossed. She was always there to answer any questions and concerns I may have, even while on her vacation. My case dragged on for so long due to the courts schedule issues. However, she's never left me in the dark. The outcome was worth the wait.... Lastly, she'll work with you concerning costs. I don't regret hiring her and would recommend her to anyone out there whom is looking for a dependency attorney.

Outstanding Service and Genuine Care

I recently went through a minor criminal hiccup and, after interviewing numerous attorneys, Shireen was the only one to show actual, genuine, care in assisting me through my ordeal. Her guidance and outstanding service assisted me in attaining the best possible outcome I could have asked for and I wo...uld recommend her to anyone facing a few legal bumps in the road! She was absolutely phenomenal, extremely personable, genuinely concerned, and fought for me the entire to achieve an outstanding outcome. Thank you, Shireen. Couldn't have made it through it everything without your help. You have no idea how appreciative I am!

Highly recommend!!

Shireen came highly recommended by a friend of mine. She gave a free consultation which was also a plus in my book! I knew nothing about divorce and she helped me with every single question that I had about it. She made me feel very comfortable in a such an incredibly difficult time. She always resp...onded to me promptly which I really appreciated. She was also very professional as well and I felt that she genuinely cared about me. It was a pleasure to have her represent me. Thank you for everything!

Thank you!

Recently I was charged with a misdemeanor for public intoxication, something I thought would never happen to me, but it did. I was pretty terrified to know that with something like this, you don't just pay a fine and you go on about your day. After knowing about the possibilities of what could happen..., I decided it was best if I got myself a lawyer. Thankfully, my mother knew someone who could help me with my situation and called Ms. Sachdev. Instantly when I met her, I knew she was very serious and determined because it showed through her professionalism. Me, not knowing what was going to/could happen, she informed me about everything before, during and after court and it made me feel more at ease to know that she actually cares about her clients. I felt assurance knowing that she was going to represent me and that I was going to be okay. Thanks to her, my misdemeanor will not be on my record & I won't have to do any community service or go to any AA meetings. I would definitely recommend Ms. Sachdev to represent you because she is with you every step of the way and she doesn't make you feel like she doesn't care about your situation or what happens to you.
