Dominic Mancuso

After having several back surgeries, a heart attack, open heart surgery and a chunk of my lung removed, two bad knees and a bad hip, I was STILL denied my disability. Sheri Abrams took over at that point and made a VERY difficult process REALLY easy. She took care of all the paperwork and ultimately got me my disability. I was SO thankful to her and how sympathetic she was to my situation. She always listened and took care to answer all of my questions. I would recommend her, and her alone, to anyone facing the gauntlet of government bureaucracy. She is also a great lady with a lot of class. - 7/20/2016

We engaged Attorney Abrams to assist with obtaining guardianship for our adult disabled child. Throughout the process, Attorney Abrams was professional, and demonstrated a high degree of competence and experience. She clearly has a passion for this work! We will engage her again, as we pursue further special needs and estate planning. - 1/15/2018

Sheri took care of everything, making the process easy. Communications were prompt. She spoke with me multiple times, some calls were 30+ minutes, answering all my questions without charging me additional hours. I have worked with many attorneys and that was a first! - 3/19/2019

Sheri led a productive discussion with members of the Northern Virginia Post-Polio Support Group. 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

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
