Law office of Sharmine Persaud was a great choice for my case. I would highly recommend her if you need help with your case. The staff was so helpful with all my questions and concerns. I was awarded disability because I went to Sharmine Persaud's law Office. Save yourself the stress and hire her for your case you will be very happy with the outcome
Sharmanie was very forthcoming with me at all stages of this arguous process. She was extremely helpful and reassuring throughout the application process which was a long and drawn out experience. Both her and her staff answered all of my concerns in a very timely and professional manner. I highly recommend Sharmanie and all her partners and staff to represent anyone in dealing with the social security and disability administration , as well as any areas they advocate to.
This is the only review I have ever written. It is not because I have never had a reason to write one, but because of Ms. Persaud's professionalism and caring demeanor, which was such a breath of fresh air. I felt that it needed to be told to everyone whom is in the need of counsel in regards to Social Security Disability or her other areas of law practice. As a retired Correction Officer rank of Captain, it is a very demanding position and Ms. Persaud dealt with me with the understanding of this. She took her time and explained in detail the entire procedures of the SSD process. When I attended my SSD hearing, I was fully prepared from beginning to end. Due to my preparation with Ms Persaud, there were no surprises. I highly recommend Ms. Sharmine Persaud's legal services for anyone who is in need of an attorney that deals with the facts and treats you with respect.
I hired her firm. The case was denied by Social Security officials during the first attempt. And that was when Ms. Sharmine Persaud took over. She filed an appeal on my behalf and won the case. It was not easy. She won due to her tenacity, determination, compassion and deep sense of caring. She cares before and after she won the case. She assured me she was going to be there for me even after. Well, I reached out to her more than once for guidance after and she delivered. She always responded and responded promptly. She is helpful, supportive and always gives me her honest opinion.
Ms. Persaud represented me with steadfast deter.mination and compassion. Her office staff are very professional and treated me respectfully during the entire process. I wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Sharmine Persaud to anyone that needs to be represented by an attorney who will do whatever is necessary to win your case .
From the first day that I met sharmine she made me feel comfortable . She was caring and concerned and listened to all my experiences while in the air force. We had to submit many appeals during my case. But she never gave up. She continued to fight for me. She won my claim and we have formed a friendship for life I will always be grateful to her.
Explained the processes perfectly. Answered every question. SSD process takes a long time and kept me patient when I thought it was not going to be approved. Prepared me for all the questions at the hearing and was approved on the spot. Great experience!
