Left me at worst possible time

Worked with me for weeks until she learned the name of the other lawyer. She told me they were very good and that she did not do litigation. I only have 2 weeks left to find a litigation attorney. You hire a lawyer to have your back, not to leave you to fend for yourself. I was left high and dry at ...the worst possible time. Working with her has damaged my chances of successfully resolving the situation. I do not recommend her. Bad practice all around. She seems nice initially when it is easy. However, as soon as you actually need her, she bows out.

Exceptionally Knowledgeable!

We are so lucky to have found Shauna to help us purchase a home. A process that we thought would be straight forward turned a bit complex due to circumstances out of our control and Shauna worked tirelessly to make sure we were protected legally and progressing in the deal. She went above and beyond ...- like galaxies beyond - to help us. She was by our side at every turn and went to bat for us more than a couple times. She is incredibly knowledgeable in her field. We couldn't have done it without her!

Amazing Lawyer

Shauna was more than helpful to us on the purchase of our first home. She was very kind, thorough, and educated us throughout the process. She has since helped us with understanding all documentation related to our purchase along with best practices for dealing with a variety of issues. Couldn't reco...mmend her more.

Great experience!

Shauna is clearly very knowledgable when it comes to real estate. She gave us sound advice and helped us through a complicated buying process. Without exception, Shauna always promptly replied to our emails or phone calls with answers to our questions or solutions to our problems. She is kind, dilige...nt and a true professional. We are very happy with her service when buying our new condo in Boston. We highly recommend this lawyer and will use her again.

Amazing Real Estate Lawyer!!

Shauna has now helped me and multiple friends with executing and closing condo purchase and sale transactions. She is a pleasure to deal with, quick to respond, thoughtful, and diligent. I continually use and recommend her for real estate transactions and advice.
