Commercial Litigation

My experience with the law firm Sherin and Lodgen has been excellent over several years. I have had the opportunity to interact with several departments within the law firm and found the attorneys and staff to be professional, kind and considerate. I would like to recognize a couple of specific attorneys that I would like to acknowledge, Gary Buchman and Sara Shanahan. I have had a great working relationship with these fine attorneys. Not only are they excellent attorneys but they also exhibit kindness, respect and humility. I am very fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with them and look forward to a long professional relationship.
