Clients appreciate Sherri’s sharp legal mind and skills as a matrimonial lawyer. However, it is her warmth, compassion, and dedication that make her an invaluable asset in navigating the often contentious matters involving her clients’ marriages and families.

Sherri understands her clients’ concerns—whether it is the impact a divorce can have on children or the financial consequences that may result from a marital dissolution. Guiding her clients step by step throughout the entire process, she works hard to achieve a favorable result.
