Outstanding Service Provided

Richard Shaw is a top notch professional. The services he provided were impeccable. He returned all phone calls promptly and answered all of my questions while also offering informed suggestions that benefitted me greatly before we when before the judge. He was willing to travel and provided a very ...fair price to come to court outside the Buffalo area. He was very friendly and intentive to all the details provided in regards to my defense. Though I was quite worried about the outcome of my case, his understanding of my charges and ability to state a positive spin on the situation was quite a relief. The verdict was basically exactly what he expected and i couldn’t be more happy with how things turned out. Look no further, this is the man you want in your corner if you have legal issues. 10/10 review... thanks again, Mr. Shaw.

Amazing lawyer

Richard is an amazing lawyer who will sit down and study your case to the fullest degree no matter how serious or non serious it may be. I came into court looking at some jail time that would ruin my chances of completing my senior year of high school until Richard himself went above and beyond to sp...eak with my old probation officer, and even got him to help defend me in my case. The result of my case was just a surcharge of $205, couldn't thank Richard enough for such a successful court date! !!! Very affordable and highly recommended !!!

Handled out of state case without me having to appear

Got into a little trouble in Cheektowaga. Completely missed my court dates and months later when I applied for a job I was denied because I had warrant for my arrest for this case. I searched for Cheektowaga attorneys and Found Richard here on avvo. He took care of my case fast and efficiently witho...ut me having to appear in court. He also got the felony reduced to a misdemeanor. Bottom line is I would recommend him.

Anything is possible

Mr. Shaw made the so called impossible, actually possible. I was being charged with a Felony and figured my life was ruined by a criminal record that would never go away. However, with Mr. Shaw's knowledge and willingness to fight for his customers I ended up with a disorderly conduct charge and I ...am now able to move forward with my life. He is definitely the one you want by your side when in trouble with the law.
