Amazing

I'm going through a divorce and reached out to Mrs. Kowitz for second opinions and clarification on the some of the legal "stuff" I was hearing. She clarified some of the decisions that were made, but also professionally raised some concerns regarding other decisions. I was taken back that my curr...ent attorney, with over 30 years experience, did not have then same insight and ability to communicate as Mrs. Kowitz. To simply state my impression of Shannon - smart - very knowledgeable of family law - compassionate She is an exceptional person and attorney.

Highly Recommended

Words cannot express how thankful I am for Mrs. Kowitz. I am going through a divorce, adultery, and custody issues. Mrs. Kowitz has been there for me any time I have needed her. She keeps me up to date with hearings and makes time to answer all my questions (no matter how silly they may seem to me). ...She is patient and very understanding. I would recommend Mrs. Kowitz in a second to anyone needing help with divorce, adultery, or custody issues. Without her I dont know where I would be. Thank you Mrs. Kowitz.

just excelent super woman

Shannon is a wonder woman. She represented my husband in child custody case over the last several months. This case was complex involving sexual issues an multiple states. Although Shannon is only licensed for Maryland she took her time to gather information and make contact with all parties involved... and gave us the best advice possible.I can not say enough about this wonderful lady. She was so professional while showing true care and concern about my family. Her investigative and prep skills were superb.she fought like a lion for our family and drove her points home. Shannon is a winner and we are so thankful and blessed that we found this firm.mr Thomas is also wonderful. he took his time to speak with us when ever we were in the office just to make sure we understood what was going on and make us comfortable. We have never been in this type of situation before and hope. to never be again. From day one Shannon was by our side thank you Shannon and Thomas we will be bringing the kids home to a safe and happy home thanks to all your hard work and effort. Theses people feel more like friends then just lawyers.

My Not So Secret Weapon

Hiring Shannon to represent me in my divorce was one of the smartest decisions I have ever made. There is no one I would rather have on my side. Facing the possibility of an acrimonious divorce was overwhelming, both emotionally and financially. From our first meeting, and throughout my journey, S...hannon was professional, honest and empathetic and knowledgeable. She listened attentively, and offered her advice, while explaining my options simply and directly. However, her ability to win a favorable outcome, while maintaining a civil relationship with the opposing party (my ex-husband) was probably what I admired most. As difficult as this situation was, divorce did not end our relationship. My ex-husband and I had to continue to co-parent our children. We would have never been able to do that successfully if Shannon hadn’t been able to preserve a respectful relationship with him while she negotiated a beneficial agreement on my behalf. Guiding me through this process, Shannon’s expertise and experience were obvious . She made me feel like I was her priority, and we communicated regularly. She helped me to clearly understand my options, so I could make the toughest decisions, and encouraged me to take the most effective action. Shannon reminded me of my long term goals, and respected my choices. She understood that more than anything I wanted to protect our children, and reasonable compromise was always an option. That being said, she has many tools in her arsenal and whatever the situation called for, she delivered. My outcome could have been much different if it wasn't for Shannon's brilliance and guidance. Her representation is truly priceless, yet I owe her more than I could ever repay her.

A definitely wonderful choice

Ms. Kowitz is one of a kind. She offers not only very strong and knowledgable representation for me, but she also is very compassionate and really listens to me as a person and can appreciate how emotional things are with a divorce situation. She was my strong voice and I always felt safe and protect...ed during my divorce with Her representing me. She is fabulous at what she does!
