Shannon N. Costa

After losing my job because of a false indicated finding with CYS, I found myself here, reading all the reviews before hiring Shannon! Im so incredibly thankful I did! Shannon was absolutely incredible throughout my appeal process. From the beginning, she was thorough, honest, and extremely knowledge...able. She kept me informed, answered all of my questions, and made sure I understood every step. Most importantly, she truly advocated for me and never made me feel like just another case. Thanks to her hard work and dedication, we had a positive outcome! I highly recommend Shannon to anyone in need of a strong, compassionate attorney. Worth every penny!

It's hard to trust someone you don't know with a life-changing issue but I was immediately confident with Shannon's advice. She answered every legal question I had and backed it up with knowledge on the laws that applied in my case. She also pivoted to address my emotional concerns in a gentle, carin...g manner. She is exactly what you want in a lawyer when facing legal difficulties.

I hired Shannon for a child abuse case that I had been indicated on. I only one chance at an appeal due to holding a professional license with the state and the situation was clearly not an abuse. During the entire appeal process Shannon explained everything to me and let me know what my options were.... At one point in time CYA tried to change the ruling to Founded until the Judge basically told them they didn’t meet the criteria for this. They finally scheduled a hearing for my appeal after giving me the run around and 15 days before the hearing Shannon let me know that CYA dropped everything. I attribute this to Shannon and her hard work to make sure that my appeal reasons were solid and making sure that CYA knew they couldn’t just sweep me under the rug and do whatever they wanted to me. She even emailed back and forth with me about my appeal reasons while she was on the start of her vacation to make sure it got turned in on time and correctly. I cannot say enough good things about her and her fees were very reasonable.

Attorney Costa was generous with her time and wisdom from the first moment we met at our consultation. She took the time to really understand what was going on with my case and be sure I understood what needed to happen. She approached the hearing with a strategy that worked out incredibly well and s...aved my family thousands of dollars. If you have any family law issues, especially any concerns with CYS, I can’t recommend Attorney Costa highly enough.

Shannon was very professional, detail oriented, and quick to react to resolve issues involving my divorce. Not only that but she was able to save me thousands with her negotiating skills. She was able to allow me to keep all my retirement. I believe I got everything that I told her I wanted to keep. ...She is very knowledgeable and at times I had to ask for her opinion to make the best decision and I went with it each time which ultimately helped me in the long run. This is an attorney that you will be able to trust! I highly recommend Shannon it the utmost way.
