Shannon Beebe is my Hero!

The Spiggle Law Firm treated me with the best attorney client service they could offer. My Lawyer, Shannon Beebe made me feel completely at ease through out the entire process. She fought very hard to get my case to settlement! I knew my case was important but having a law firm that stands firmly beh...ind you, is the best feeling a plaintiff could have. I’m happy with the results we were able to achieve for my case. I would recommend this firm to anyone who has employment issues such as work place discrimination, pregnancy discrimination, etc. They fought for my case and I am happy I chose them. Thanks for all your hard work Miss Beebe. I’m forever grateful.

Professional, knowledgeable, efficient, empathetic--a first-rate lawyer

I hired Shannon Beebe in the fall of 2017 to represent me in a complex employment case that stretched back two years. It was a difficult time for me. I did not have a good understanding of my case. I did not have much money to spend. I knew my case was complex, and not much more. I was suffering from... stress and confusion and at times I wondered whether I was simply wasting my money in seeking legal representation. I was extremely fortunate to have the chance to hire Shannon. She is, simply put, a first-rate lawyer. First, she was able to quickly make sense of my case and explain where I stood. Shannon is clear and articulate, she understands what non-lawyers like me need to know, and she gets to the point. Second, she did not shy away from telling me the truth, even when the truth included the disappointing news that my case was weaker than I thought. Third, her advice was at all times clearly geared to serving my interests, without regard for what might or might not benefit Shannon or her firm. Fourth, she was a professional and supportive voice at times that I became discouraged and was ready to give up completely when there was still work to be done. Fifth, she was an extraordinarily efficient worker. To be honest I believe Shannon was underpaid for what she produced. Sixth, she was a skilled negotiator with the attorneys representing my employer, which was staffed with very experienced and aggressive lawyers. It was clear to me that these opposing lawyers had great respect for Shannon and her abilities. Shannon recommended to me (properly in my view) against litigation, yet she was able to negotiate a settlement with opposing counsel that I considered quite favorable to my position. It was a bonus I was not expecting. If any of what I have described about my feelings going into this case reflects concerns you might have about yours--confusion, uncertainty, worries about money, a sense that you might never adequately understand your case or be able to trust the legal advice you will get--I would recommend the Spiggle Law firm and Shannon Beebe in particular. I should say that I also interacted with four or five of the office staff at Spiggle, and all of them, like Shannon, were professional, dedicated, and genuinely concerned about doing the best job possible. I think this firm has a winning culture, very customer-oriented, with talented personnel, and I don't think you can go wrong picking them to represent you.

Genuinely had my best interests at heart

I recently had a gender-based harassment issue with a former employer that brought me to Shannon at the Spiggle Law Firm. This was my first time having a consultation with an attorney (they refer to it as a strategy conference). From the moment I arrived, Shannon was approachable, displayed empat...hy and took careful notes before providing a recommendation. She could have guided me toward filing a lawsuit that would have cost me a significant amount of money to retain services and in attorney fees, which wasn’t on my agenda in the first place. Instead, Shannon provided excellent legal advice on what steps I could take to try and resolve the issue before taking legal action. She offered verbiage that would inform my employer I knew my rights without sounding threatening. She also provided next steps to take if my first outreach didn’t give the resolution for which I was hoping. We parted with my knowing her door was open any time I wanted to follow through with legal action. I followed her advice and am happy to say my issue is resolved, and I can move on with my life. Additionally, I'm confident any gender-based harassment affecting other women there is now being investigated. Hopefully, no one else will have to deal with what I did. I highly recommend Shannon if you are looking for an attorney who will have your best interest at heart and not just the law firm’s pockets. I suggest you take the strategy conference (yes, there is a fee – but any consultation with an attorney is). It was the best money I’ve ever spent.

Professional, credible empathetic advocate

I had a great experience with Shannon and chose her after speaking with three other attorneys. She was responsive, professionally assertive, knowledgable about likely outcomes and great at explaining what was taking place. Shannon is patient and empathetic but also has a solid knowledge of the legal... process. She was very efficient and used my retainer with them carefully. I never had the feeling I was being billed for unnecessary tasks or time spent. She worked to resolve my case quickly and successfully. I highly recommend Shannon.

Terrific asset!

The Spiggle Law Firm was smart, thoughtful, responsive, and absolutely thorough from the very first day of contact and Shannon specifically handled my information with great care, put forth tremendously intelligent recommendations, and followed up with me the entire way. Throughout what could have be...en an otherwise stressful process, she was able to put me at ease and strengthen my overall confidence! I would highly advise anyone in need of similar services to reach out to her directly as she is a terrific asset!
