I’m SO glad I went with Shari Jo. She was extremely knowledgeable and helpful through this whole process. She fought for me when no one else would And kept me in the loop every step of the way. I would HIGHLY recommend using her

Top marks for Shari Jo. Her experience really helped me sleep at night as she guided me though this emotionally challenging and stressful situation. Her matter of fact style helped to quickly and efficiently draft the settlement. Great follow up to all of my inquiries throughout the process. When the process was stalled by the other side, she gave me great advice to get the process moving and ultimately bring closure to the process.

Shari Jo comes to the table with decades of experience in matrimonial law, yet pays attention to every detail of the new cases she takes on. This combination of experience and attention to detail is extremely effective. In my situation, she was informed, prepared and strategic in every step of a lengthy legal process. My advice would be trust her to do what she does best - handle matrimonial cases with expertise and conviction. She showed me that she genuinely believed in what is just and right, worked for just that and won.

Shari Jo did everything she was hired to do and more. She made it clear regarding what to expect and how to proceed. She was always available, was willing to listen to suggestions and modify strategy if it was going to improve the outcome. She was in charge so if you want to tell her what to do she is not for you. If you want to win, she is the one!

I cannot speak highly enough about Shari Jo Reich. She is the most professional, clever, honest lawyer you will ever meet. Her manner when I was going through one of the roughest times of my life was always calming, and her intense level of confidence most reassuring. My ex husband was going after everything I had worked so very hard for and it was promising to become a very ugly and drawn out battle. That was not the case in the end as Shari Jo had the most brilliant "chess move", that neither the opposing lawyer or my ex ever saw coming. They backed down from her clever use of the true facts and the end result was over swiftly and in a most favorable outcome for me and my assets. I always felt that she had my best interests at heart and never once did I feel like I was "billable hours", which my ex clearly was to his lawyer. She cared about me as a client who needed help. At our initial meeting I had brought a check with me ready to retain her services, (I was referred to her by 2 separate lawyer friends and was advised of her legendary reputation). She told me to read her contract before making any decisions, and yet still took the time to hear and have opinions about my situation upon meeting. Within a few minutes she sorted out some interesting possibilities for defense. I had called a few others prior to finding out about her and they all demanded a retainer upon meeting. Shari Jo's comment to me was that "she wanted to protect me" and that she did. If you want to be coddled and hand held with a shoulder to cry on she is not your lady, she is ALL business on your behalf. But if you want a fierce tiger who lies in wait for the right moment to strike to get you what you deserve she is the one for you.

Shari Jo was very professional, thorough, and gave advice from many angles for discussion concerning how to proceed in my case. She is very intelligent, kept a good handle on the facts, fought hard for me, and was very straight foreword in what to expect. I really appreciated her "no nonsense" attitude, truthfulness, and had 100% faith in her keen judgement. Thank you again Shari Jo

Sheri jo Reich is an outstanding professional, we recently went through a very disgusting vile custody battle that got entirely way out of control, Sheri jo told us all along no matter what to stick to our guns and always tell the truth, I will admit never going thru a custody battle I had no clue what to expect and at times the other sides council would make these off the wall allegations that were so far fetched she may have well said I'm an alien. If your looking for a lawyer that will lie cheat and play dirty shes not for you. She is very honest and upstanding her character is of the highest standard. And with our not so impressive legal system it was very hard at times because you want someone to stand up and scream are you kidding me!!! But Sheri jo is like a master at chess she chooses her moves wisely and when the time is right like a heat seeking missile she hits her target, she often says I've been doing this for 27 yrs I know what I'm doing trust me. Well we did and I cannot ever ever ever thank her enough even though its hard to trust that something that you cannot control and is such a twisted system will ever turn out as it should she fights for it, and for the truth. She is the one that will fight for you day and night. Sheri jo is a godsend, and when your in trial with her it's just like watching one of those tv show lawyers, you think to yourself wow I'm glad she is my lawyer and I'm not on the other side of that. The moral of my story is if your reading this hire her you will not be disapointed. From the bottom of my heart words could never ever ever describe the debt of gratitude I owe you Sheri jo you've brought my family back together and got us through the worste possible nightmare that one could not ever even imagine. She's not just your average lawyer by any means a cut way above the rest!

S.J. is an amazing attorney and she is worth every single penny. My fiance has already written a review but he's not me. S.J. fought for me. I never lied to her, she is upfront and honest about everything. She worked after hours on my case and got back to me even when she was on her family vacations. There simply are not words that could express how I feel or the thanks that I have for S.J. and her associates who worked on my case. I had no hope in the family court system, but S.J. kept my faith and hope. People who hire attorneys fail to realize that every person in this world will at some point receive a bad review, especially when things don't go there way. People fail to realize that if you want an amazing attorney, one who will fight tooth and nail for you, be brutally honest about everything whether or not it hurts your feelings, and so much more, you have to be willing to pay. The cost of an attorney doesn't always say how good or bad you will be represented, but from personal experience it matters some what. I have referred a few people to S.J. and her office. I will continue to do so anytime someone asks me if I know a good attorney. I HONESTLY COULD NEVER REPAY S.J. FOR BRINGING MY FAMILY BACK TOGETHER AND BRINGING THE TRUTH TO THE SURFACE. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Shari Jo Reich!!!

I hired Shari Jo back in 2010 when I filed for divorce. Looking back, she was right about how the case would go, literally, she was 100% right. I parted ways with her over 3 years ago and I realize know I made a HUGE mistake. I could have saved tens of thousands of dollars had I taken her advice. Looking back I realize I was pain as a client. I let emotions get the best of me and complained to her as if she was my therapist. I wish I didn't do that to her, I neglected to see I was not her ONLY client and honestly I wouldn't have put up with me if I was her. She tolerated me and let me know when she had enough of my complaints. To be honest, she was always prepared and responsive. She was in the process of making partner and had a heavy case load but she never neglected my case. Her fees were far more reasonable than the 2 lawyers I hired after her and she was the only one who showed me how she spent my money. She sent monthly statements to me, though my ex was paying me fees. The lawyers after, which I have paid for myself, never sent me a statement, even though I requested in writing several times to see how my money was being spent. That made me uncomfortable and I felt I was being taken advantage of in a way. I don't know if most lawyers provide statements or not, but I really appreciated that she did. S.J. was brutally honest to the point it was upsetting at times- but she was right. I wish I had listened, appreciated, and stayed with S.J. not only would I have spent less $, my kids would not have been through as much as they have. Hindsight is 20 20 so to those who complain about her- I hope you take a step back and check your emotions before you make unkind, unfair, and possibly inaccurate accusations about S.J. Reich. I've never posted a review of anyone before but I felt compelled to post this review about S.J. She was the best of 3 and I wish I would have taken her advice. If you hire S.J. i suggest you listen, even if it isn't what you want to hear.

first off lets point out the obvious, someone will always be unhappy and bad review someone. Sheri Jo has been my attorney for two cases and she is wonderful, she answered all my questions and made my dream of a mom become a reality. so meet with her and form your own opinion before you judge her by the bad reviews

I was referred to Shari Jo from a real estate attorney that I know and trust. As a result, I trusted her right from the beginning because of his strong recommendation. It's a painful and uncomfortable time when your marriage has dissolved, and you don't know your rights AND you're full of questions. Shari Jo is friendly, no-nonsense and very experienced. She and her team were very responsive. She doesn't make the Law, but she certainly navigates you through it so that you come out the other end as unscathed as possible. She wrote a brilliant legal separation agreement, and the process only took 51 days from the start to the agreement being filed. I'm glad and grateful that she handled my case. I highly recommend Shari Jo Reich!

I could NEVER have made it through my divorce without Shari Jo. She was not intimidated by any of the circumstances that arose during my divorce. From the moment I met her, I knew she was the perfect choice. She ALWAYS got back to me whenever I had questions. She showed genuine concern, compassion, as well as knowledge and experience. She is was and is fantastic!!
