Had great service from Jennifer Cafferkey, Associate Solicitor, ably assisted by Louise. It was understandably a stressful situation but through the professional support provided by Jennifer and the team, it was made as easy as it could be producing a successful outcome. Jennifer and the law firm are easily recommended.

Emma O Meara

Tagged solicitor Emma O Meara

I was recently made redundant and asked Sherrards Solicitors to review my redundancy agreement. My case was handled by Emma O'Meara, who was incredibly thorough and made everything clear throughout the process. She even reviewed documents on her day off, which I really appreciated. After the agreement was signed, an amendment was needed, and Emma kindly handled it at no extra cost—something I’ve never experienced with any other solicitor. Her support genuinely made a difficult situation much easier. Highly recommended. Thank you, Emma!
