Kevin Shelby - personally adaptable, professionally solid!

Mr. Shelby has an uncanny ability to adapt to his clients in a very personal way. In fact, he was so calm and casual with me that at one point I wondered if he was too calm and casual. I should have not been concerned. In my situation, push did indeed become shove, and Mr. Shelby immediately rose to ...the occasion, demonstrating a command of the law, and frankly the English language that proved beyond a doubt that I had made the right choice. If you find yourself in my situation (post-divorce vexatious and vitriolic claims), keep calm, trust in his skills, and he will help you arrive at the best possible outcome.

Capable & Confident

Kevin P. Shelby is a take-charge person, very capable, pursued my case when others wouldn't. I fired my prior attorney for Mr. Shelby who came highly recommended by a personal friend. This decision was one of the best decisions I have ever made. After dealing with an attorney like Kevin I realized... how incompetent my prior lawyer was. Kevin was confident, knowledgable, and very well at handling a case as complicated as mine. Kevin P. Shelby truly worked a miracle for me and I would recommend him to anyone.

Nightmare

My divorce was such a nightmare no one can even fathom what I endured. I relied and trusted Kevin to represent me but he turned out to be a huge disappointment. I also never received any monthly statements of charges and when I asked for them he told me it would be too difficult to provide. I have ne...ver heard of such a thing!! I also had to return to court at a later date to resolve something that hadn't been finalized in my divorce which he actually should have completed. He wouldn't take care of it and I really was not happy about that. Therefore, I had to pay another lawyer to complete the service.

opposite of what was promised

No advocacy whatsoever. Felt like he was working for the other side. No invoices, errors is billing, caught him in lies, mainly when he forgot what he previously told me or when ill prepared for court. Everyone who asked me who my attorney was grimaced when they heard his name.

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.
