Ms. Abrams provided much-needed and well-organized advice concerning long-standing concerns within my family. She received a list of questions and concerns ahead of time and answered them knowledgeably and thoroughly. She was also well-prepared to answer additional questions raised during our conversation. She clearly has much knowledge and experience with all aspects of Social Security law and can speak from a frequent and diverse practice before these specialized tribunals. She set our minds at ease and gave us the necessary guidance for our next steps, in much detail. She has great communication and presentation skills, and I hope they can be utilized for further client education or even teaching purposes.

It was a pleasure meeting her, and I look forward to recommending her practice to folks in her area. Thank you, Ms. Abrams, for your service to many clients in great need of help! Your care for them is obvious. - 12/02/2018

Sheri recently created a Special Needs Trust for my handicapped brother. I could have gone to a lot of lawyers, but I’m glad I chose Sheri. She took the time to listen to my brother’s story so she could better shape the Trust. I would definitely work with her again. She actually gives lawyers a good name…. - 10/13/2017

She immediately developed a rapport with her audience and demonstrated compassionate understanding of the issues facing the disability community. She delivered clear, concise information exhibiting a keen professionalism and expert knowledge in Social Security Disability appeals as well as the acquisition of Wills, Trusts, and POAs. I would highly recommend her services. - 11/10/2015
