Review Paul Shanahan

Poor representation

Posted by

My experience with this Attorney was very poor. They are reluctunt on returning calls, preserving important documents, and making promises with no intentions on keeping them. 17 years old hit by a drunk driver and have not yet after 23 yrs have recieved my rightful damages rewarded by law.
This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Legal counsel

One of the few lawyers that I hired that actually achieved justice for me even though I was insolvent he took my case. I can honestly say one of the best experiences I have had with a lawyer in quite some time. Efficient, couteous, knowledgeable and he puts his client first. Excellent representation
