This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Helped when I didn't know what to do.

Mr. Shockley not only helped me with a wonderful strategy to get my family home back from dead beat renters but also calmed my fears. People who do not normally deal with the Law are somewhat intimated Mr. Shockley made me feel comfortable talking to him and really made me feel he had it all under c...ontrol and he did he won my case on the 1st court appearance. His assistant was vey helpful in answering all my question and several times talked me down. I will use him when ever I need a lawyer and a friend all rolled up in one person. Thank you Mr. Shockley

The Best of the Best

Mr. Shockley is the best defense attorney I have met and he cares about his clients. I have seen a lot of criminal defense attorneys in my life and most of them barely take the time to learn the facts of a case before they make up some weak argument on the spot in court. That's what passes for "crimi...nal defense" most of the time. Mr. Shockley is so different. He actually spends time with his clients, asking lots of questions to learn everything that might be helpful. He researches the law before court and actually prepares. Judge listen to him because he knows what he's talking about and he gets results. I would recommend him to anyone who is facing criminal charges.

Lynchburg's Gem

As a victim of domestic violence, alone in a new country, feeling helpless and hopeless, Todd Shockley did one thing that no one else did. He gave me hope. He is someone whose work ethics cannot be described in mere words. While I was feeling bewildered and not able to trust anyone, thanks to God tha...t I met Mr. Shockley. He heard my story and was extremely meticulous and quick with everything. The most important thing anyone would want from an attorney is communication and that is the best quality of Mr. Shockley. The fact that he is extremely proficient with all aspects of law and can steer you always in the right direction is an added bonus. Truly Mr. Shockley is a gem of a lawyer and it is God's grace that I hired him and I recommend him with all my heart. You are in the most capable hands if you hire Mr. Shockley.
