I had a great experience with the Berry Law firm. After not being able to find anyone who could help with my case for decades, the Berry Law firm actually won my case for me. I gave 5 stars, because that's the highest allowed, but think they deserve 10! They can help you when it seems no one else can. Sean Sheppard is a dedicated, passionate and compassionate attorney. A warrior for those who need help.

The Berry Law Firm did an excellent job getting me 100% disability for my agent orange VA claim. It was a complicated case and I must commend the efforts of Melissa Lovrien the legal Assistant who worked with us over the years and Seth Chambers our lawyer who put it all together for the VA.

Berry Law. That is it two words when it comes to needing represented. Those two words change my life and I will always have trust and faith in and for them. Berry Law and team really went out of their way to explain everything to someone to the way I would understand all the legal words. This team is the best and trusting in Berry Law with Matt Knipe and his team as your defense is the only way to go. I know that without having this team I am not sure what the out come would have been. But what I do know for certain is I did trust in The best of the best and I had Matt Knipe and Co counsel Abbie Steiner. And together they helped me win my case. They may not be able to say for certain if they can win a case but I know for certain with them on your side as they were on mine there is not much of a better chance of winning. I want to thank Berry Law. And Matt Knipe and his team to show the best professionalism and respect and support. Thank you . And trust in Berry Law if you want to win!!

Stephanie works hard for her clients. She may be a person of few words but I learned over time that is how she works. The most important thing is that she worked hard for me and won my case. That is the reason I hired Berry Law Firm, to win for me. I am hoping that she will continue to assist me further with my VA connection to get all the benefits I require and deserve!

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
