  • I recommend Toby Shook.
  • I hired Toby 6-12 months ago.
  • Toby handled my Criminal Defense matter.
  • I have previously worked with 3-5 lawyers.

I just wanted to write this review because he deserves it. I have worked with several different lawyers in the past but Mr. Shook is No. One in my book. Not only he produceses results but he has been in the game long enough to answer any of your concers. He helped my brother with his case and i am sure he can do the same for you. It was a difficult case but his hard work and dedication paid off i thank you sir from bottom of my heart.

I could relax

  • I recommend Toby Shook.
  • I hired Toby 1-3 years ago.

I am not familiar with the legal system and, when I found out I had a warrant out on me, I panicked. Luckily I called Toby Shook. He was on top of everything from the moment he took my case. He told me what the charge meant, what I needed to do, what he would do and what would happen every step of the way. I called him in a panic but was soon able to relax. As the process went forward, he kept me informed. And - most importantly - he cleared up my issue quickly. My position was that whole thing was a mistake. Toby Shook made sure that the legal system saw it that way too. Everything was dismissed - like it never happened.
