I can’t say enough positive things about Sharmine and her staff. They were professional and answered all my questions and concerns and made me feel at ease. They were always readily available and explained the process to me so I would know what to expect. Sharmine is very experienced and qualified to handle your case. I am very happy with our decision to hire her and I would recommend her services to others.

Mrs. Sharmine Persaud, was very professional and always kept me advised. She never gave up on my claim and succeeded in getting it approved after a long battle with the veterans administration. I am so grateful to her. She has made my life so much better. Thank you Sharmine.

I had called a number of SSDI lawyers when I was looking for a lawyer. Upon meeting with Ms Persaud I felt extremely at ease and comfortable explaining to her my situation. Ms Persaud knew that she would be able to help me out. I am so pleased that I made the right decision because she made the whole process very simple. Her office staff are all very good at what they do plus keeping me up to speed during the process. The main reason for using this office was the fact that getting to talk to Ms Persaud or Lillian Vaquiz was never a problem. They always got right on the phone or called me back right away. Unfortunately I can’t say the same for my Workers Comp lawyer. For now on I stick to the smaller office with the personable touch. Unfortunately I didn’t know Ms Persaud when I was looking for a Workers Comp lawyer. My thinking at that time was bigger would be better. Boy was I wrong. Unfortunately I could not change Workers Comp lawyers at that point.

From the first day we meet Ms. Persaud was very personable and well versed. She made me feel very comfortable and explained everything step by step. Ms. Persaud was a welcome light during a difficult and long process. I wish all my dealings were with someone as kind and smart as she is.

I called SSA & they referred several Social Security Attorneys for me to Contact. I contacted & spoke with several Attorneys Offices.  I wasn't impressed until I contacted Persaud + Zeltman & spoke with Sharmine Persaud.  Sharmine & Francesca both were Extremely Professional, Knowledgeable, Supportive & Confident.  Upon visiting the Office, I learned about their backgrounds, beliefs & values. I was Very Impressed with Lillian Vaquiz & All of the same Professional Qualities that she possessed.
