What a shame to be a lawyer that does not give a crap about their clients. I come from a family of lawyers in The Compassion that they hold for their clients goes Leaps and Bounds above yours. Should be ashamed of yourself that you represent clients and only care about the money. May God have mercy on your soul and the way you have treated previous clients.

Arrogant and incompetent. Beware and use another attorney - do not use Perhacs. Unethical practices in law are notorious to the point of being a stereotype. Sheldon Perhacs is the reason for this stereotype. Money motivated annd unethical.

Disgusting racist human being. Shame on you. You could have prevented one of the biggest miscarriages of justice and yet you did nothing. You probably thought you got away with it too. I hope karma is a btch.

Throughout the trial, Perhacs exhibited a lack of passion and dedication to Hinton’s defense. His halfhearted approach allowed the prosecution to dominate the narrative, despite the weak and circumstantial evidence presented against Hinton.

How come you did not help Mr. Hinton? Why do you value money and hate over human life? Crooked lawyers lay the foundation for the downfall of nations, it is a shame the hurt you have caused people, I really hope there is justice in the next life.

God will be your final judge and jury. Your selfish unwillingness to genuinely help people and your transactional demeanor should be the gauge for which you are reviewed. Your whole life comes down to one thing: are you a good person? God knows. Not a bunch of reviews or other people’s opinions. God will tell you his thoughts. You have a lesson to learn and perhaps you will come back as one of the people of color that you judged to learn that lesson..

For Anthony Hinton. Saddest case ever. Please don't hire Sheldon Perhacs. Read The Sun Does Shine and know that you can find a better lawyer and Sheldon Perhacs should feel ashamed of himself for what he did.

He's a horrible attorney. He didn't even try on the Hinton case. Never brought in character witnesses, never brought in the man who said, "this gun hasn't been fired in 20 years," never explained that there was no way Hinton could have done it based on his being at work, never explained the fact that the killer kept killing after Hinton was in jail. Never, never, never choose this guy for your attorney.
