Verified ClientHired Law firm 2025Stuart was absolutely phenomenal in helping us close on our first home, and we truly could not have asked for a better attorney. From start to finish, he was extremely communicative, diligent, and incredibly responsive to every question and concern we had—no matter how small. As first-time homebuyers, the process can feel overwhelming, but Stuart’s accessibility and open line of communication made everything feel clear, organized, and manageable. He was always one step ahead, explained everything in a way that made sense, and made us feel confident that we were in the best possible hands. His attention to detail and dedication to our needs were unmatched, and it was obvious how much he genuinely cared about making the process smooth and stress-free. If you are looking for an attorney who is professional, thorough, reliable, and truly wonderful to work with, look no further. Stuart deserves the highest praise. We are beyond grateful for his help and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone in need of an outstanding attorney.

Hired Law firm 2025I recently worked with Minion & Sherman Law Firm for my home purchase, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the support I received throughout the process. Stu was fantastic—he walked me through every step, explained things in plain language, and pointed out important details I would have easily missed. Zaida was also a huge help—always responsive and kept communication clear and consistent the whole way through. The entire experience was smooth, professional, and reassuring. I felt confident that my interests were well protected, and I’ll definitely be working with Stu again in the future!

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
