Sherine M Pahlavan

I called Sherine's office completely out of hope and at a loss for what step to take next. I was immediately comforted by her wonderful and compassionate office staff who have been always been extremely helpful and supportive. Sherine passionately cares about her clients and uses her extensive legal ...experience to do everything she can to put you at ease. Despite every curveball that was thrown in my Child Custody/ DV case, Sherine and her staff have always been persistent, knowledgable and handled my case with a sense of urgency. I am forever grateful for the help, support and feeling a safety that I felt after choosing Sherine's office to represent me.

Sherine is an amazing attorney. She knows the law, and she is extremely familiar with Solano and yolo county, which is where my case was. I hired Sherine for a custody battle with my Ex, I started the case on my own, when I needed help, I spoke with several attorneys, I hired Sherine because I felt t...hat she was the best fit for my situation. I hired her in the middle of a wintry storm. She took the case on in full stride, each and every play was timed perfectly. Sherine is extremely ethical, honest,and hard working. Sherine remains, cool,calm, collective, and knows when to be aggressive. She stands up for her clients, she looks at the situation, and gives you the best options and routes to go. If you look at the courts, as a football game, she is a head coach who knows how to win a championship. Her law office is a very busy one, sometimes you may feel left out at times, but with Sherine, your in good hands, she knows whats going, and when it comes to your turn, shes on her game, just as a head coach should be. In the end, the case ended perfectly. Fair and Balanced Thank you Sherine and Tiffany for working so hard and diligently Would I hire Sherine again? Faster than a New York Min.

I was in a very messy divorce that included child custody of a little one less than a year old and my ex resided out of the area. The divorce included domestic violence, accusations of mental wellness, and money issues. I hired another attorney at first under the recommendation of a family friend and... in the urgency, I hired him. That was a huge mistake in terms of professionalism, cost and knowledge of the law. I trusted that attorney to protect me from my abusive ex and his accusations - while this helped for the initial court hearing, you could tell the judge brushed it off as "he said, she said" since I never called the cops on any of the abuse. Also, I was never able to reach that attorney and was even told he was working on a more important case. In desperation to securing my child in the Sacramento area and knowing I needed to not work with that other attorney, I reached out to Empower Yolo that helps DV victims and they recommend me to Sherine. This by far was the best decision I could have ever made. For the first time in this whole messy process, I felt heard, believed, supported and protected by Sherine and her staff. We had to go back to mediation and court to establish final custody and my ex was still pushing for my little one to fly between homes. Sherine was there for me EVERY step of the way. She called me prior to meetings and met with me prior to going in to the court. She worked with my ex and the judge to agree on difficult matters which causes us to not have to go back to court in the near future and the best part..... my kid is with me and we are safe. I would and will recommend Sherine to anyone. She is simply the best.
