Very accommodating

I Retained services with Richard Shaw for a friend of mine. My first contact with him was on a Wednesday evening at about 8pm. He went out of his way to meet me on Thursday evening and was in court for the case on Friday morning. The resolution was exactly as he promised. His price was reasonable... and I couldn't believe he took care of things so quickly. He followed up with me right after court since I couldn't attend and he has continued to answer questions and lend a helping hand even though the his work in the case is finished. I highly recommend him.

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.

Excellent Lawyer

Richard handled our situation completely to our satisfaction. What impressed me most was his ability to drop everything and be there on short notice when we needed him the most!

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!
