Excellent Lawyer

Mr. Shaw was an excellent lawyer. He did exactly what he said he would do!! I was very nervous throughout this process and not ever dealing with court or any lawyers in this area before made me very scared, and he always made sure to let me know everything would be just fine. He was very reassuring ...which meant a lot to me. He was very reasonable and worked with me. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing legal representation!!! He was absolutely wonderful!!!! :)

Thankful

There are many options when it comes to choosing a lawyer. Every day it can seem as if advertisements are all around you, engulfing you in a sea of promises and promotions. However when it comes time that I know that I need someone who cares about the individual not the profit, someone who puts excep...tional effort and expertise into my trial, and seems to know the legal system in and out I choose Richard Shaw.  Being in a rough spot legally can be frightening and I felt like I didnt have a good chance at a positive outcome. Not only were my worries eased with kind words but he was able to pull out all the stops and it seemed like a miracle the results that he was able to achieve. I truly recommend Richard Shaw or any legal problem that you might come across.

Excellent lawyer!

Richard shaw is an amazing lawyer! I recommend him to anyone that has any court cases in his area of expertise. I had hired Richard Shaw a few times. The first time, years ago a friend I was with was shoplifting and I had no idea. After I cashed out & paid for my things I was taken with my friend and... arrested for shoplifting since we walked out of the store together. I hired Mr. Shaw and he got all my charges dropped and off my record. A few months ago I had a bench warrant for not paying my fine, and also for not completing 75 hours of community service that I was supposed to pay and complete over a year ago. Not a good situation seeing as it has been so long and judges hate that! I again hired Mr. Shaw he called the detective that put the warrant out for me and arranged a date that was good for myself to go turn myself in. He met me at the police station, and waited in the court room for me. I got off with only a fine and a few hours of community service. I'll be honest I should have been arrested and I should have either went to jail or post bail and get a much worse punishment! Richard Shaw is the best! I know many people who have used him and they all said amazing things! If your looking for a great lawyer who is good at what he does you found him!

Very personable attorney who listens to your needs

I recently got into a bit of trouble on a trip to Buffalo. I hadn't been in trouble with the law in I'm not sure how many years. I can't even recall the last time I got a traffic violation. Well needless to say, we all make mistakes and if it wasn't for Richard, I could have been in a lot more troubl...e. He reassured me that he would do his best to get my charges dropped as much as possible and that I had nothing to worry about. I live very far away from Buffalo and Richard was able to provide an affadavit saving me tons of time and money for appearing in court. I received an ACD and 10 hours of community service which I am more than grateful for. My mistake could have cost me much much more especially if it had not been for the help of Mr. Shaw. I HIGHLY recommend his services if you are in need of representation.

Solid Lawyer

Richard was very professional in handling my legal matter and was able to achieve the most desirable outcome we could have hoped. Richard has a strong network and because of that it was a main factor in my selection process. I would strongly recommend using Richard's services.
