"Shawn is an amazing advocate for his clients, whether your case is big or small. I have had the pleasure of seeking his advice, watching him win trials in court and see him patiently counsel new lawyers who seek his advice on criminal or traffic matters. You can't go wrong with Shawn Gritz or his firm and his 20 plus years of experience really show."
"Shawn Gritz is a great defense lawyer and will go above and beyond to protect his clients. I am always inspired by how much he cares and how hard he works. I have seen him in court and also tried co-defendant cases with him, and he has always done a great job."
"I endorse this lawyer. I endorse this lawyer. Shawn is an excellent attorney. He is knowledgeable and experienced. He cares about his clients and communicates with them well. He is respected by his peers and by the Judges he appears before. He will go to trial or work plea deals in a client's best interest. I have worked with Shawn and sent him clients for various matters. Ten out of ten. Ed Tydings"
"Shawn is a very strong criminal defense attorney. He is very knowledgable about the law and he genuinely cares about each and everyone of his clients. Shawn has helped me evolve as an attorney and continues to serve as one of my closest mentors."
"I wholeheartedly endorse this lawyer. A brilliant, trustworthy and highly respected attorney in the legal community."
"Shawn is one of the best traffic, personal injury and criminal defense lawyers around. He is honest and hard working and will go the extra mile."
"The time a lawyer spends giving back through sites like this show passion for the law and compassion for people. Kudos to you for helping others with sage advice."
"I endorse Shawn Gritz. I have known Shawn for about seven years. I first met Shawn when we had a personal injury case against each other. He did an excellent job recovering for his client in a disputed liability case. Now, I consult with Shawn whenever I have a criminal question and I refer any criminal matters I get to him. Shawn is well respected and a fantastic attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer in all fields that he practices; personal injury, DUI law, and criminal law. I have seen Shawn practice in the same courts that I have for many years. It is always a pleasure to be near him. He is consistently prepared, conscientious, and calm. He is a good mediator and is never afraid to go to trial (like many attorneys are) when mediation fails. He is a pleasure and a good attorney."
"I have known Shawn for close to 20 years, and he has always been knowledgeable, prepared, and trustworthy. We have had several mutual clients, and I would strongly recommend him as a trial attorney."
"I have known Shawn since my first year and law school, and see him "in action" on a daily basis. He is not only extremely knowledgable on the law, but he possesses a "calmness" unlike many lawyers. Because of this, he is able to obtain excellent results for his clients."
