Posted by James | June 26, 2026 | Hired Attorney

Mary Beth Shaffer is a horrible attorney

She was a horrible person, treated me like garbage, constantly condescended to me, kept me in the dark about things regarding my case. She was unknowledgeable and adversarial from the outset. She rarely ever returned my phone calls and when she did she would incite verbal altercations, even over a si...mple question. "What do I look like an oddsmaker?" she said to me in response to my very question to her. "Like I tell other people, if I were an oddsmaker, I'd be working in Vegas, not for Tom Dickey. She is a vile human being and an atrocity of an attorney. Please believe me when I tell you.
