Professional yet Personal Approach

Shawna is currently helping me through one of the most challenging times in my life. My case is extremely complicated and multi-faceted. During this painful process, Shawna has been empathetic, reassuring, and considerate to both my needs and my children's needs. She is helping me navigate this l...ong and arduous process with patience and dignity. Her strategic thinking, her attention to detail, foresight, and ability to negotiate provided me with the trust in her ability to effectively manage my divorce. She has provided me with the best possible legal advice and guidance so that I can make well informed decisions and get the best results for my case. Shawna has worked diligently on my case towards a resolution. She knows how to be fair; however, she can be tough when needed...but never a bully. Her work is grounded in fairness and integrity. I highly recommend Shawna and am grateful for her expert representation and for her support and understanding.

Great Attorney

We were fortunate enough to have Shawna represent our mother with her recent divorce. From the get go Shawna was a fantastic communicator. She made it a point to clearly explain each step in the process which helped put our family at ease. Shawna gave us regular updates as the case progressed through... the court system and did an awesome job of representing our mom's interests with opposing counsel and during court hearings. She is tough, diligent and very talented. We are grateful for Shawnas representation and her talents no doubt led to the positive outcome/resolution of our case.

Fantastic Attorney-Exceptional

She is TOUGH! If you want someone who is ferocious, smart, tenacious and a shark on your behalf, she is it!! And she knows the law and the best way to make it work in my favor. The hammer! When we were in the courtroom, every time, I was so happy she was on MY side! I would never want to go u...p against her. She is worth every dime she charges.
