If you are in ANY kind of legal trouble, Call Sal!!!! Sal is the Best Criminal Attorney in this town! Sal takes the time to listen without judgment. He will give you all of your options and all of the facts that you need to know. I had a very serious criminal case and Sal got the best possible outcome for me!! He literally saved my life. Sal is a Brilliant Attorney. He is also compassionate, passionate about what he does and very personable. He is also accessible at all times!! I highly recommend Sal!!! Don't even bother calling other lawyers; I did and it was a waste of my time. Call Sal!!!!! He truly cares about all of his clients and he treated me with respect at all times. And he WON my case; couldn't be happier.I rarely write reviews but a GREAT Attorney is very hard to find!!!

Salim J Sheikh was not was what I was expecting from a lawyer. He not only soothed my anxieties about my case, but he also gave me back my dignity and hope. The man has worked tirelessly for me and has included me in every step of the process. He has given me more of his time than I would ever reasonably expect from law practitioner. Not only is Mr. Sheikh on top of all things case related, he is also very wise and sharp as a tac. When trouble came looking for me Sal immediately came to my home and discussed the case. From there we drafted a reasonable retainer agreement that allowed me to still keep my head above water. This case was the most serious case I have ever faced and Mr. Sheikh has walked me through the maze. I could not hope for a better Attorney and counselor. Finally I could not recommend Mr. Sheikh more.

Note that most of Sals reviews here and else where are all copy and paste by clients - he asks his clients to do this even before the case is over. Look him up and I'm sure you'll be able to match up the cookie cutter reviews.Sal took care of my legal issues ( half assed ) but managed to get entangled with my life in ways one should avoid at all costs. He's also a habitual liar and alcoholic. Even if you got a contract he will try and change it on you - ie you work out a payment plan that is clearly stated, but before the court dates he suddenly needs more money or the rest of what you agreed to make payments on. Seek better, morally sound legal aide elsewhere because it's not here.

Sal is very hard working, very busy, and he's obviously a great lawyer that cares about his clients to have received high ratings and to be juggling so many clients. That being said, you may need to be patient with him. He may be running from other courtrooms or another court and he may not pick up all the time, but let me emphasize* that it doesn't mean that you're not in good hands. I am so thankful I found Sal online through his law focus and through reading reviews. He helped me with an order of protection case against my psychotic ex who posed an actual threat to me, my family and co-workers. In preparation, I did my homework during the discovery process by collecting documents against my ex which simplified everything. At the end of the day 1) We won 2) He explained everything thoroughly to me 3) He was even able to get my ex to cover my lawyer fees and therapy. He's the real deal, high quality lawyer that I'm even recommending him to my uncle who now has spousal drama. You won't regret hiring Sal.
