Sheri represented us in our guardianship case for our son Nick. She also drew up a 3rd party special needs trust.

The entire process could not have been any easier. Sheri was able to answer all our questions and put us at ease.

I highly recommend Sheri for any and all legal needs. - 5/28/2016

Sheri was very helpful in explaining my options in creating a special needs trust for my son. The result protects my son's financial resources in a way I could not have anticipated without her assistance. She offered to answer any questions that might arise even though the trust has been finalized. - 9/09/2018

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

Ms. Abrams is wonderful! kind, thoughtful, and understanding. She worked very hard for me so that, in spite of my difficult physiological conditions, I was approved for Social Security Security Disability Benefits without appearing at a hearing. A hearing would would have resulted in an extremely high level of panic and discomfort for me. On a scale of one to ten, she earns the highest rating. W. Christie Ms. Abrams was a pleasure to work with through the difficult process of obtaining benefits for our son. She is a master of the process itself, and is also a master of customer service. My husband and I recommend her without reservation. - 2/17/2016
