Client Review:
Micah provided us with excellent advice in developing our wills, trust, and custodial arrangements. Where he really shines is in patiently guiding clients through the tricky issues and sometimes difficult decision-making process involved in estate planning. He was sensitive to a few unique aspects of our situation, and proposed some very helpful ideas for how to accomplish our goals.

  • I do not recommend S. Salb.
  • I used S. Salb 1-3 years ago.
  • S. Salb handled my Wills / Living Wills matter.
  • I have previously worked with 1-2 lawyers.
Client Review:
He is knowledgeable and put us at ease during the course of discussing serious matters regarding our will, durable powers of attorney, and trust. However, his attention to details and organization can be lacking as it took us over a year to complete the creation and finalization of our documents. We received a good product in the end, but it took a lot of time and vigilance to ensure our requirements were met. Unfortunately, we can't recommend him.

  • I recommend S. Salb.
  • I used S. Salb more than 3 years ago.
  • S. Salb handled my Employment / Labor matter.
  • I have previously worked with 6-10 lawyers.
Client Review:
Shannon Micah Salb is one extraordinary attorney. Shannon was into my case to provide the best representation that he could, AND he did. He is, certainly, a superb writer, a powerful speaker, and a smart negotiator.
During the time that Mr. Salb provided me with representation, I trusted his careful and cautious instincts. He never took anything for granted. Mr. Salb was not interested in wasting my time and did not waste his precious time. Salb is not a lawyer that runs up the billable hours. He does not do this because he gets results through his talents. Salb was careful to not waste my money and he talked with me about expenses that might be incurred by my case.
The opposing counsel was with a large impressive law firm. I sensed that Mr. Salb was neither intimidated nor cowed by that firm's credentials. Shannon seemed to have great confidence in himself and his lawyerly abilities and skills.
Through the professional relationship that Salb and I maintained, my view of lawyers changed. Mr. Salb demonstrated that superb lawyers are ethical, honest, caring, and win.

Client Review:
Micah was a fantastic help to us in our estate planning - exceptionally knowledgable, very trustworthy, offered us just tons of invaluable advice, easy to deal with, very detail oriented and thorough, willing to meet with us at our home, and just a very nice guy. He knows his area of the law inside out. And the entertainment value alone was worth his very reasonable fee. We have since moved away from DC and only wish he was in our area for all our legal needs! You could not find a better attorney for family law and estate planning.
