Highly recommended

I found out about Atty. Shannon through my family members, and he specializes in immigration law. He helped my relatives successfully change their legal status, and he's very experienced in his field. He conducts himself professionally, and from my personal experience, his fees are reasonable and mak...e sense. Unlike my previous lawyer, he genuinely cares about his clients and keeps them informed throughout the process. Thanks to his expertise, I smoothly went from obtaining a work permit to getting my permanent green card without any issues. Now I'm a US citizen and I'm very grateful to him; I highly recommend his services. I've already referred many people to him, and I continue to do so.

Do not waste your money

He didn’t do my husband’s immigration process the right way and now he has to wait 10 years to come back... He lied to us saying he was going to appeals and he asked me for a bunch of letters and he didn’t even appeal.... He just wanted his money. He knew it since the beginning and he lied to us... L...ast time I went to his office he didn’t even know what happened with my husband.... Shame on him....

I had the pleasure of working with this wonderful person. In addition to being knowledgeable, Mr. Shannon exhibits professionalism and compassion. His clients always feel comfortable with him; He spends time with them and provide them accurate information.

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.
