Great Attorney

She got me an essential eviction during the COVID eviction moratorium. She guided me through the process and made it easy for me. She puts her clients first and does not let them make stupid mistakes.

If You're A Landlord, Look No Further. Inessa is INCREDIBLE

If you are a landlord, property manager or owner.. I can't stress enough how amazing Shur Law Group is. I've found over the years that Massachusetts is incredibly tenant friendly and puts people like me at a great disadvantage. She worked with me step by step, and every time I use Shur Law, I always ...experience the BEST possible outcome. I am very very pleased and will never go with anyone else again. Thanks!!

Professional, prompt, and a delight to work with

Ms. Shur was able to broker a mutual acceptable agreement between a problem tenant and me - we were able to avoid the court process thanks to her ability to deftly read the situation and proceed accordingly. She's very responsive and was great to work with!

Great Experience

It was such a great experience working with Attorney Shur. She has an incredible bedside manner where she immediately made me feel so comfortable and at ease talking about my legal problem. I never felt rushed or judged, she truly cared about helping me. What really fascinated me was her demeanor ...when it came time to represent me in court. Attorney Shur was sharp, prepared and aggressive when she needed to be. She settled my case, getting me the result I wanted. I couldn’t be happier working with such a top notch lawyer!

Knowledgeable, Prompt, Helpful

Inessa was very helpful in dealing with a tenant/landlord issue for me. She was very prompt in responding to my questions and concerns, providing vital information I needed and was entitled to as a tenant. A pleasure to work with! Will not hesitate to use her again!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
