My workers compensation case

I walked into Ann Shelley's office hopelessly after being deceived by a previous law firm that was initially in charge of my case. Ann accepted my case and promised me that she will do anything in her power get me the most reasonable result for my pain and suffering. She was diligent in her work, she... maintained an open lined of communication throughout the entire case. She was punctual at every session and court hearing, she kept a clean record of all medical bills, and made sure I was not liable for any outstanding medical payments. Ann was able to get me a lump sum settlement in a reasonable time frame. Should anyone need legal counsel for any type of personal injury or if you feel that your case is not being handled properly, please call the office of ANN Shelley in Newport for consult. Her secretary and answering service are the most welcoming and cordial as they can be, and you will in touch with Ann in no time. ANN, YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!

DUI Firat Offense

Ann was the absolute best attorney I could have chosen to represent me. She is kind, personable, and dedicated to her clients. Ann answered all of questions, and always returned by calls in a timely manner. Ann worked hard to plea my case, and made sure I received only minimal penalties for my cas...e. She stood by me through the whole process, and made sure I understood the court process. Her service was impeccable and I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Great attorney!

I had a slip and fall claim that Ann filed on my behalf. She was a pleasure to work with! Although the process was a little long, the result was great! She got the maximum amount allowed for my suit which exceeded my expectations! Would definitely recommend her!

Highly recommended!

Ann Sheeley represented me very well. She is very familiar with the law and local processes to resolve legal matters as painlessly as one could hope. she listened to many questions, was responsive to changes, and her caring demeanor really helps lessen some of the fear.

Exceptional Experience

Never ever been to a lawyer and was worried to see one. My experience with Anne made me feel worry free. Anne Sheeley is someone who you can TRUST and is very clear and upfront about everything. She CARESto listen to your entire story, does not cut you off like most lawyers I contacted did to me, and... will give you her words of wisdom, her time, and her undivided attention. She is HONEST, she will tell you exactly upfront what she will charge for her service, and she will give you real honest and personable advice as to what you should do to maximize your chance of winning your case. She will go as far as to contact her resources for you to get more information as to what can help you in your situation. I would highly recommend Anne for a lawyer as she has INTEGRITY and actually CARES to help! Anne did not even charge me anything for over an hour of her time consultation and helping me by making calls for me. Highly recommend Anne if you are looking for someone with great experience and who is honest.
