Posted by anonymous | March 08, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Amazing guy!

I just recently hired Shawn to handle my son's ATV case, and while on the phone with him I also mentioned that I was at traffic court for my own case. He literally left right that minute to come meet me at traffic court and help me with my ticket, and I have high hopes that he will be beneficial in h...andling these cases. Seems like a very knowledgeable and caring attorney.

Avvo Rating

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.
