Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.My husband worked with Sharmine Persaud for his SSD case. Ms. Persaud was a wonderful, pleasant and very professional experience. Mrs Persaud was knowledgeable and compassionate about our case. It felt like you were her only client. Everyone in the office was attentive and very responsive when you had any questions or concerns. I would recommend her 100 times over for her services. Great law firm.
I am a repeat client. I had a WC case and returned three years later for help with SSDI benefits. Talked to many lawyers before I hired Ms. Persaud. She explained the process to me fully. Always explaining the terms in plain english. I did not have to worry about anything after that. Her office takes care of all the paperwork and filing. At each step they provided instruction and I either received a phone call or came to the office to meet with an attorney or paralegal. Her staff is kind and knowledgeable. This is a small caring law firm where you feel like your case matters.
Thank you again for helping myself and family throughout the process. It truly was a blessing to have such a great team on my side.
Sharmine was great to work with she handled my case she handled everything having to do with the VA and got me the highest award possible I am very grateful to have her by my sode
Ms. Persaud assisted a resident at my Nursing Home apply and received SSI benefits when we were unsuccessful in obtaining. Ms. Persaud took the case on pro bono and even though she would not be getting paid she was very professional, responded to all correspondences quickly and was truly concerned about our resident. I worked as the laison between Ms. Persaud and our resident and was so impressed with her during the process recommended her to a family who was having similar issues. I would highly recommend Ms. Persaud for any of your legal needs.
Everyone from start to finish was Awsome, She took over after Binder and Binder went Bust and cleaned it up. I am so happy I found them. Thank you all. Kenny C.
Working with this lawyer was a wonderful and pleasant experience. She was compassionate and knowledgeable about the situation I was in. She worked around my schedule and with the pandemic also in mind. I would definitely use this lawyer for any other issues I might need legal advice for. I highly recommend her .
Sharmine Persaud is not only a lawyer of the finest quality, but as nice of a person you might find. She handled my SS Disability case, but over 15 years has also handled two Workers Compensation cases, all with the best results I could not recommend her services more, and have to many of my family and friends with the same results. Best wishes and you will be in very good hands. Be well - Be safe Regards; Steven Couzzo
Having been recommended by another associate to Ms. Persaud I totally left my case in their care. However i also had to present my due diligence in providing the information along with meeting scheduled deadlines presented to lead to the best of case results. The staff was courteous, patient and enduring with my controlling ways and maintained professional at all costs. I was relaxed by their competency and the manner in which the order of things were just as they explained upon my first introduction of her services. The counsel of Mrs. F. Zeltmann was not only thorough yet clear and comprehensible. My life has been made whole, even with my existing disability I stand in confidence, knowing being in their care positioned me to receive the best of living that could be offered to me. Through observation, being a client of the firm, I learned... "Comprehension is the reward of balanced judgement and trust is built incrementally as understanding exhibited"
It was a pleasure working with her. She was thorough and explained what was going on. Always kept me informed on the status of the case. I recommend her highly.
