The Good Word
Testimonials from Happy Clients
I have been separated from my husband for many years and decided to file for divorce. Got in touch with several lawyers but in the end, I went with my gut and picked Attorney Shari Anhalt. I reached out to her and her legal assistant Samar who was kind enough to really listen to me on the line and had the compassion for my situation. She did inform me that Shari was fully booked with cases she was handling but she will try and get back to me. She did! Shari could have said no as well but instead, they scheduled me for the initial meeting and interview. I was beyond ecstatic when Shari agreed to take on my case. Unlike a lot of her well to do clients, I only had ARAG legal insurance. That didn’t deter Shari and her legal team from helping me. We bumped into a number of challenges along the way, but in the end, Shari alongside Samar and the rest of her legal team seriously looked into ways to finally resolve my case. All throughout the process, they made me feel how my case was important to them, that I was important. This really mattered a lot to me.
My case has finally been resolved and my divorce finalized. But this could not have been possible had Shari said NO. Compassion matters. If you are like me seeking for legal representation and going through a rough divorce, then I highly recommend reaching out to Shari Anhalt and her team. They understand what you are going through and will do everything to help.
Thank you Shari and Samar. I will forever be grateful for your help. I know that I am just one of the many people you have helped and I pray that people find their way to ask for your help as well because your compassionate legal practice is a blessing.
I personally have never been in a situation where I needed legal help from a lawyer specially involving child custody. Life happens and things change, thank God I had found Shari Anhalt Legal Services. Shari assisted me in so many ways that I am so thankful, she was so professional and so into my case that I felt so comfortable in letting her take over. I would recommend her to anyone that is seeking legal help regarding child custody. Thank you so much Shari, not only did you help me with my case and getting what I requested but you also made me feel like family and a priority…. thank you
If I could go back in time, I’d tell myself a few things: (1) the divorce is tough and the last thing you need to worry about is if your attorney is smart and has your best interest at heart, (2) custody conversations don’t end after the divorce especially when it’s a contentious divorce, so I need someone who can advocate for my kids and me with a clear understanding of the law and our rights, and (3) the best thing I ever did for myself was hire Shari Anhalt – she’s sharp, tenacious, works fast, knows what she’s doing, and is worth every penny. She’s successfully navigated me through some really choppy waters so that my kids and I can heal, enjoy life and thrive.
Shari is a great attorney, very professional and knowledgeable. Most definitely has your best interest in mind and will have your back in court. She helped me navigate through my divorce and handled my case extremely well.
Finding a right divorce attorney is extremely hard. I had been searching extensively and going to numerous initial consultations, all of which left me feeling more confused and intimidated with the whole process, before I met Ms. Shari Anhalt.
Soon after meeting Shari, I knew that I had come to the right place. Shari made me feel comfortable and able to relax after so many month of uncertainty. After 20 minutes talking to Shari, I knew exactly the steps I had to take, what to expect and felt confident that I could file for the divorce. I signed the contract engaging Shari to be my attorney right on the spot. And it was one of the best decision that I have ever made!
Shari was one of the most compassionate yet fierce attorney I’ve ever met, especially when it came to protecting her clients’ interest. She always thought about what was best for the kids, and for me in the long run, even though it seemed as if I took a disadvantage step at the time. Looking back, I am very glad I listened to her advise!
Shari gave me peace of mind when things got difficult or when I was unsure what to do. She made me feel confident that I could get through a very difficult period of my life. I highly recommend Shari Anhalt Legal Service to anyone in needs of a great family law attorney.
Thank you so much, Shari and staff for taking such good care of my family and your excellent management of my case!
Lets’ face it, the law is complicated. It’s as if you have to learn a whole new language to really understand what is going on – and I’m a doctor!!. In my consults with Shari, she always manages to explain everything in easy to understand terms. It seems like most other attorneys try to confuse the issues with complicated terminology and you just end up not having any trust in them.
Shari has all the great qualities the other reviews mention. Just a fantastic attorney and a consummate professional. You will not be disappointed. Wish I could give her a hundred stars!!
Shari is one of the most compassionate yet fierce attorneys I’ve ever met. Her ethical and moral standards were what set her apart for me – she gave me peace of mind when things got hectic or I was unsure what to do. She made me feel confident and sure during a very difficult period. I recommend her to friends and family all the time!
Shari assisted me with navigating a complicated issue where her experience and resources were the reason the best possible outcome was obtained. She assisted me with 8 or 9 court appearances last year and was definitely the best person to have by my side through it all. Thank you, Shari!
Very sharp focused mind a caring kind human being…real integrity way better than tons of attorneys I’ve spoke to….strong she does what is right and won’t back down….finding her is like finding a treasure.
Very attentive and affordable. Treats you like family. Great to have such a knowledge team on my side. You can’t go wrong.
Divorce is hard, and it is important to find an attorney you feel comfortable with in addition to the legal qualifications. When I started looking for an attorney I asked anyone I knew who was divorced for recommendations. Not everyone gave a positive recommendation and some attorneys didn’t call me back. Then I interviewed a few in person. Shari Anhalt was recommended by a friend, and I immediately felt comfortable with her. She was efficient, empathetic, and knowledgeable. My final divorce agreement was thorough, and Shari always thought about what was best for the kids, and for me (long term). Sometimes I showed up at her office in tears, but I would leave feeling confident that we had dealt with the issue and were prepared for the next steps. I hope that this review will help other people who are dealing with divorce and custody.
I had never been a position where I needed to hire an attorney. Shari came recommended to me by someone I respect. My initial meeting with Shari went over the time allotted. Shari did not rush me and made sure I shared all of the information I needed to. She listened and made sure she gave me all of the information I needed to make an educated decision. I’m so glad I hired Shari for my child custody case. All cases are different and there is no one size fits all approach to these matters. I believe we made a good team. She will give you honest feedback with compassion, direct you to the best possible outcome and encourage your decisions based on what is best for your situation. I highly recommend Shari for your family law matters. The office team is great as well, prompt follow up and very responsive.
I was in need of emergency family legal services and I came across a highly ARAG rated family law attorney (Shari Anhalt). Upon our first conversation, Shari demonstrated the ability to listen, understand, empathize, and instruct with our discussing compensation. I found this extremely refreshing and knew I had found the right person for the job. Throughout the entire process, Shari and her team were highly professional, fair about pricing, responsive, and highly skilled. The end result was exactly what we were looking for and we could not be more pleased with the professional services provided. I highly recommend Shari Anhalt for family law matters.
We’ve worked with Shari on a number of matters and have been impressed with her professionalism, attention to detail and responsiveness.
Dedicated, Professional, and Honest!
I cannot think of more exemplary words to describe Shari Anhalt and her team at Anhalt Law. My case went on (unfortunately) for 3 years and Shari was there with me every step of the way answering every question, concern, and helping me navigate this difficult process.
Shari and her team (including the amazing Samar & Minh) are very attentive and put their clients needs as a priority no matter the issue at hand. From the first day meeting with Shari in her office to our last day of our settlement, she has been my rock with her diligent approach on all matters.
I cannot stress enough what a miracle it was finding Shari and now hope that anyone else who may be in a similar situation find and use her for any family law matters. You will be thankful that you have someone as amazing as Shari in your corner!!
I was looking for an attorney to initiate divorce proceedings. I was passed off by another attorney who didn’t seem to care. I am so glad they referred me to her! It was the biggest blessing! My case has been very complicated and contentious and Shari has handled everything in stride. She is always professional, is willing to think outside of the box and is an oak tree for you when emotions are high. She has an ability to see through situations but also adapt accordingly when curveballs are thrown. I love that she is tenacious but coming from a place of compassion. On top of that, I can say after working in the legal field previously, she is by far the most ethical attorney I have ever met! She genuinely cares about her clients and the work she does and she has helped me give a voice to my daughter to the court. My case has been painful and arduous but despite that Shari is so pleasant and has given me so many unexpected smiles. I cannot thank her enough!
Shari Anhalt not only guided me through a very difficult time with true professionalism but also with compassion. There is no way I could have pressed on without her as my attorney. 1000% I wld recommend her to family and friends!
Professional, knowledgeable and ethical attorney. Shari most definitely has your back in court and will help you through a tough case. I would recommend as an attorney any day.
Shari is amazing and has been there for me and my family. She is always there to listen and help you obtain the best results from difficult circumstances.
Shari is incredibly professional, courteous, empathetic, and technically proficient. That was just from my first meeting with her.
Shari is the best. She knows what she’s doing.
