My secret weapon for litigation.

After a company that I consulted for refused to pay me my many unpaid invoices, I decided to file suit. Ive had to do this once before and the company ended up settling before the court date. I assumed thats how this was going to go. Turns out, I was wrong. They took the case to trial. At this point ...I realized this was WAY over head and decided to find counsel. Shane was speedy at our communication before trial and made sure I knew what to expect come court day. The trial arrived, I was so nervous I felt sick but Shane was cool as a cucumber. Some last minute evidence was brought up by the defense but he was confident as always. Trial was a breeze. Shane knew all the right questions to ask, when to object, and what to say. I can honestly say that without him as my attorney, I don't think I would have received judgement in my favor for the full amount. He will continue to be my go-to counsel from now on. Very professional, trustworthy, efficient, and an all around nice guy.

Do not use this guy

This guy is very hard to get into contact with. He assured me my uncontested divorce would be finalized in eight weeks, its been a YEAR later. I think I would have faired better filing my own divorce.

Annulment/Uncontested Divorce at a decent price

I contacted Shane about a month ago because I found out the man I had married 9 months earlier had felony convictions that he withheld from me before we got married. I asked Shane if it was possible for me to get an annulment considering my situation. He said yes and he said that even if I were to pa...y for the annulment and it was found that I couldn't get it that he would handle an uncontested divorce for me instead at no extra cost. I had been to see another lawyer before coming to Shane and that lawyer told me that I had to pay $1000 dollars up front before I could even receive services from him, so it was refreshing to come across Shane's website offering an annulment at a cheaper price. Also, Shane worked with me on my financial situation and allowed me to make small payments instead of paying the whole amount upfront. My annulment was processed and finalized within a month of hiring Shane. I was told that was a very good turn around time when working with a lawyer. Shane was very busy so sometimes I had to make sure to get in contact with him to find out what was going on with my case. However, when I contacted him I always got a speedy response back. If you need a quick annulment/uncontested divorce for a reasonable price Shane is your guy! I highly recommend him.

Uncontested Divorce client

I hired Shane Jimison to handle to my uncontested divorce. His website claimed that this would be a relatively quick and easy process, as my husband and I have been seperated for three years. We do not have children or any property together. There is nothing to dispute. The website indicated this... would be completed in approximately 3 to 4 weeks and that Shane provides individualized attention to each case. However, my experience has been the opposite. It is now going on 4 months and my divorce is still not final. He has offered no explanation and has stopped responding to my email inquiries. This has been an extremely frustrating situation that has dragged on for far too long. Although the fee seems reasonable, the stress and aggravation is just not worth it.

Solid attorney, a real straight shooter

Shane assisted me with gathering information on some out-of-state divorce issues, and most recently handled a divorce for a very close friend of mine. He understood that my friend was dealing with limited resources, and gave some helpful advice about how to best file given the circumstances. He man...aged to deal with a uncooperative spouse and turned what could have been an adversarial proceeding into a relatively smooth and pain-free process. Shane also is great at responding almost immediately when called upon (which is why I find some of the other reviewers' comments somewhat surprising). I've spoken with other clients of Shane's who would also vouch for his conduct and integrity. I would highly recommend Shane to handle legal issues within his scope of expertise in Virginia.
