We hired Sherri to help us with getting an APR for my brother’s child who was in my care. Our case, not unlike others, had a fair amount of small details. I would sit down with Sherri and explain the situation or answer questions she asked, watch her take notes and then a few days or a week later, she would tell me she needed the same details we had already gone over and stated that I hadn’t given her yet. She often misspelled names or got a DOB wrong, even after being corrected and that still made it’s way into the final document. She sent an email at the conclusion of our case stating she would return the retainer and then a week later, she said there was nothing to return (she would bill when the retainer had run low, so it felt as though she had intentionally found enough to charge to keep the entire retainer). After consulting with an attorney who mainly works on custody/adoption, we’ve found our APR is boardline illegal based on the way it’s been written. Overall, Sherri seemed polite and professional, but in regards to our case, she felt scatterbrained, spread too thin and not well versed in family law. I respect her as a person but would not hire her as an attorney again.

Ms Murgallis made repeated mistakes that cost me several thousand dollars. She was incapable of even getting the basic court ordered documents, despite repeatedly telling me she could. She then made sure there were no consequences to the opposing party for not turning them over. She refused to present evidence of serious legal infractions of the opposing party. Undermining my argument and strengthening that of the opposing party. She made sure that the case cost as much as possible to the point that I had to send her an email telling her to stop wasting her time and my money until she got the documents she said she would be able to obtain. You will need to know the laws so that when you try to stand up for your rights she won't be able to force you into a bad situation.

I will definitely hire Sherri again if I ever need legal assistance. She was straightforward, compassionate yet professional, and represented me well. She gave my case the amount of attention it needed, but no more -- which kept her fees reasonable as well.

I hired Sherri in December 2014 to help me with a complex custody case that has been going on for years. I explained my cornerns, issues, and what I needed from her. She seemed to have the knowledge and qualifications I needed to finally get somewhere, so I could get on with my life. I was definitely mislead. I spent 8 months listening to her explain to me why we couldn't do this, or that. I was often ignored and would have to wait weeks before she would get back to me. By the time she called me back, she had forgotten what I told her so I would have to explain everything again. I was told several times that she didn't believe what I was telling her. I wasted my time, money, and sanity because of Sherri, and the only thing she really did for me was make things worse.
