Mr. Cline was highly recommended to represent me in Virginia Beach. He was very easy to work with throughout the entire legal process. After receiving the initial retainer he allowed me to pay the rest of his fees in installments. His fee for representation was comparable and competitive to other ...attorneys based on the nature of my criminal charges. The whole process took about 8 months and I was informed as to what was happening on a regular basis. He had a friendly office staff and they always relayed the correct message when he was unavailable. The best part was that he always called me back in a timely manner. He listened to my concerns and explained the plan of action clearly and in terms I could understand. He never over committed on the finally outcome and I respected that. He simply advised what he was pushing for and what he hoped to accomplish in my best interest. I was extremly happy with the outcome which allows me to have a "second chance" so to speak. He was able to have some of the charges dropped and got me the best deal possible for the rest of them. He was well known in the Virginia Beach legal system and has lots on experience working with all on the district attorny's. I would definitely recommend Shawn to anyone.
