Compassionate, Knowledgeable, and Truly Invested

I had the privilege of working with Shannon during one of the most difficult times of my life—fighting for legal custody of my daughter. The process was tough and at times overwhelming, but Shannon was there every step of the way, guiding me with patience, professionalism, and genuine care. Shanno...n not only provided excellent legal expertise, but also took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I always understood what was happening. She was responsive, compassionate, and truly fought for what was best for my daughter and family. Thanks to her dedication and guidance, I was able to secure legal custody of my daughter. I will forever be grateful for her support and highly recommend Shannon to anyone in need of a lawyer who truly cares about their clients.

High quality representation

From start to finish Porcello Law Offices handled my case with incredible expertise and care. You don’t feel like just another client when you’re in their hands. Every single person I worked with, from the paralegals all the way up to Jean Porcello, were not only knowledgable but also personable. The... lawyer assigned to my case, Shannon Connery, worked incredibly hard to ensure I was happy with the judgement of my divorce. She was accessible and able to answer all my questions. Shannon made an extremely stressful life change as easy and smooth as one possibly could. She was well prepared and very well spoken in the courtroom. I can’t thank her enough for everything.
