Great experience, highly recommend

I had a great experience with Esquire Kanavy regarding an issue where my ex-husband violated the terms of our property settlement agreement. She was professional, knowledgeable, extremely helpful and very responsive. Without a doubt, I'd work with her again.

Absolutely wonderful!

I cannot say enough about how amazing Shannon and her team are. Every case has its own issues and unexpected unique challenges. Mine however involved more than I could’ve ever imagined. My financial situation was extremely poor and I did not have much to offer while trying to obtain legal counsel. I ...was also told by multiple lawyers in the Bucks County area that my case was not “a winner”, and I was refused representation. Shannon took on my case and I’m so thankful she did. Shannon was there for every step of the way and truly had my best interest at heart. Not only did she help me weigh my options but also fought well above what I could have ever imagined. Shannon’s whole team went the extra mile and it was truly appreciated during such a heartfelt and trying time. Every phone call and or email that was exchanged was always timely and professional. Shannon is fierce in the courtroom and will not backdown. If you’re looking for someone who will truly fight for you and is extremely skilled and well respected, I highly recommend 5/5! Thank you again Shannon for all that you’ve done for me! I will always highly recommend you!

The Best

I have been a client of Shannon Kanavy for the past few years. To say this woman has true compassion for her clients,knowledge of the legal system, and goes above and beyond for her clients is an understatement. She has been a beacon of hope during the most difficult times in my life. Shannon is trul...y a representation of great support and strength; full faith in her guidance. Additonally, her assitant, Tammy is extremely helpful and engaging. Wonderful team!!!

Awesome. Goes above and beyond. Lawyer for life.

Facing being a single Dad who had never been in a divorce situation I was referred to Shannon from a friend going through a separation of his own. I went for the consultation with Shannon and was immediately put at ease after we had an open discussion that my child was most important to me moving for...ward. She explained how things will progress moving forward. Both Shannon and Tammy (paralegal) were completely professional in the handling of all matters of the divorce and custody. They reply in a timely manner and are very thorough. Shannon takes the time to explain the situation at hand, will give her opinion in the matter but will fight for what you want. I even referred Shannon two other clients in the past year since I was totally satisfied. I heavily lean on her advice and look toward to keeping Shannon as my attorney for the future. I can’t thank her enough.

Thanks, Shannon!

I hired Shannon at a friend's recommendation when I found myself blind sided when my husband filed for divorce and took my children from school. Shannon was very caring and knowledgeable. She helped my get my children back and while the divorce was difficult, she helped me get a great settlement.
