I believe that her office was responsible for my getting permanent disability the first time I applied. I am extremely grateful and have reccomened the office to others in need of her services . Thank you Joe Abberton

I highly recommend Sharmine Persaud and her staff. When I was seriously injured in a workplace accident I knew I needed a lawyer and Sharmine was recommended by a friend. She had previously won their case. Knowledgeable, responsive and truly compassionate she took on a case that looked on the surface to be simple but became quite difficult and drawn out. She lead the way and followed it through to a successful end. Dubbed a "unicorn" case as the circumstances were rare Sharmine's tenacity and determined efforts won the day. During the entire process she kept us abreast of each new development and listened intently to our questions and provided answers that made sense. She was exactly the type of lawyer my family needed and I would recommend her to anyone.

I need it help with finding someone to help me thru the navigation of Social Security disability, spoke to a family relative whom referred me to the office of Sharmine Persuad, from the beginning of my case everything was explained to me, thru phone calls, emails and texts her office kept me involved in the process. Working with her team made it so relaxed and the process was helpful on getting me approved. I urge anyone that needs the help to call the office of Sharmine Persuad!!! I am so grateful that I did.

Sharmine was absolutely a pleasure to work with. She has excellent communication, was constantly accessible and explained every step of the process to me. She answered every question I had throughly and explained all of my options. She is incredibly intelligent and helped me receive a favorable result in my case. I cannot recommend her enough.

Sharmine is a life-saver, literally. I was a nyc upper management employee for decades. One inglorious morning I was viciously attacked walking on the promenade to my office. I nearly lost my right eye, received a broken jaw, and supplemental facial wounds. The person who knocked me around was wearing a cowl over his face. The police, the hospital, and midnite tears..I tried calling at least six lawyers, each turned down my case because of the bureaucratic snafu they would be facing; court appearances, doctor reports, filings, and the years of elapsed time it would take to adjudicate my case. Sharmine met with me under very difficult personal circumstances, as I was emotionally drained. Yes, the case took about 3 years to resolve. But we won!!!! Sharmine also handled the appeal..the wounds were serious to my psyche as well as my body...I had called Sharmine a few times since. She politely answered all my questions with facts..I thank the heavens for her help...eric bernhardt

Sharmine and her team took on my case at a time when I was sick, scared and my future uncertain. I was unable to process much of the things I needed to do for my disability case. I had an aneurysm so literally, my brain was not functioning properly. With her patience and professionalism, Sharmine won my case and helped me on the road to a better life. I honestly do not know where I would be now if she had not fought for my disability case. If you are in need of a disability lawyer who will handle all aspects of your case with compassion and professionalism, look.no further than this law firm.
