My dealings with Sheri were fantastic. She was very professional, knowledgeable, and fantastic to work with during guardianship proceedings for a loved one. We were so pleased with her service that we went back to Sheri for a Special Needs Trust. - 6/13/2017

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 Really Knows Her Stuff!!! Just when I was ready to give up I met Sheri. She just took over my case and we won. I would recommend her to anyone in need of a good Disability Lawyer - 3/24/2016

I owe Sheri everything. She went to bat for me at my disability hearing. I thought all was lost but Sheri did not give up. To make a long story short we won my case. I would recommend Sheri to anyone in need of an excellent Social Security Lawyer. Thanks again Sheri!!! - 10/15/2016

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
