Our Firm

I’ve worked at Sherin and Lodgen for over twenty years; initially in the word processing department and for almost eight years as secretary to Josh Alper. The ‘open-door’ culture of our firm is unique and cultivates a friendly, team oriented environment (even when having to burn the midnight oil). We are encouraged to develop relationships with each other as well as with the firm’s clients. It truly has the feel of extended family as we watch each other grow and transcend in our professional lives and in our family lives.

When I first joined Sherin and Lodgen as a paralegal, I was both excited and nervous because I had no previous law firm experience. I soon discovered that the firm has a culture of training and support through seminars and hands-on practical advice. The attorneys find time to answer my questions, and co-workers are always ready to help. Such an environment has helped mitigate stress and allows me to focus on daily tasks. Last but not least, my supervising mentor has provided me with invaluable guidance and support from the first day I joined the firm.

We have been working in a job-share arrangement at Sherin and Lodgen for almost nine years. Before the job-share, we each had been working here full-time (between the two of us we've been here 35 years!). This opportunity has provided us with the best of both worlds. Sherin and Lodgen allows us the flexibility to enjoy a rewarding work environment and enables us to have time to do things like volunteer at our kids' schools and keep up with day-to-day household routines. Working at the firm for so many years speaks for itself…it is a great environment and it is staffed with top-quality people.
