A divorce assasin indeed

Kevin exceeded my expectations from the word go. He was always there to listen to my concerns, and answer my questions, and above all, represent my best interests, even when I was unsure of the path we were taking. He could see the big picture in ways that were difficult to fathom in the midst of t...he 18 month divorce disaster. My ex-wife's midlife crisis ended up costing her far more than even she considered. At the end, Kevin handed me every SINGLE THING I asked for in the divorce, and several things I didn't. My ex's lawyer didn't see several of Kevin's strategies coming and we surprised them several times in court. It was fantastic watching them unable to figure out what to do. Kevin gave me a shot at a life and a relationship with my children I couldn't have imagined at the beginning of the divorce. I have referred him to several of my friends, and he represented me in a post matrimonial matter, to swift resolve, also exactly what I was looking for. Kevin is professional, and did everything I asked him to. I would not hesitate to recommend him to another person, and I would not hesitate to retain him again in the future, should the need arise.

Thorough!

Kevin represented me in family court concerning child abuse/custody. Can't say enough good things about how knowledgeable he was and how professional he handled my case. I would highly recommend him.

CAKE WALK!!

My wife hired Kevin Shelby and when I met him for the first time, he served me divorce papers in Family Court. He was a nice guy but I had a lot of fun watching the man be nervous and illprepared. The man had a hard time getting basic information out of my wife in our first meeting and I think I foun...d enough kinks in his armor to really give him and my wife fits. I can't wait to see him again. My wife is going to have a lot of finanical heartache paying for his services. He may be a good divorce lawyer or mediator for some people but I'm thrilled he's on the other side of the courtroom representing my wife. Watching him trying to pick up the pieces of my wife's midlife crisis will bring me nothing but joy!!!

Divorce Assassin!

Divorce is seldom if ever pleasant. Mr. Shelby secured my needs in a professional and timely manner. I highly recommend him to settle any family matter.
