Best lawyer

I came to Shawn for my divorce and custody. He’s the most hardworking professional lawyer I’ve seen. Helped me get full custody of my son and advises me anytime I have issues with the custody.

Great Family Lawyer! Great Results!

I hired Shawn to help me with divorce back in 2017. Initially the divorce was going to be uncontested but then my ex wife decided she wanted alimony and the whole 9 yards. Working together with Shawn, we were able to create an agreement with my ex that did not include alimony, which is exactly what... I had wanted in the agreement. Fast forward to 2018, I hired Shawn again to help me with custody of my daughter. Again, I let Shawn know what I wanted out of the case (primary physical custody) and he gave me real expectations with real results. He got me, a single father, primary custody of my daughter. This was extremely important because she was beginning school and needed a stable environment for the school. There were a few obstacles in our way and the other party was uncooperative but Shawn handled it in a very legal and very compassionate way. When we left the court house, agreement in hand, I knew that I would recommend Shawn to anyone who needs results. As far as cost goes, Shawn's prediction for the case was accurate, especially considering the amount of problems that came in the case later on from the other party. He charges very reasonably for his work and does not nickle and dime you for nonsense.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
