Posted by Ashley | October 02, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

A wonderful, honest Guardian ad Litem

Shannon was assigned to my recent legitimation/child custody case to determine the best interests of my child. She took her time, and really evaluated all the facts and made sure she had her ducks in a row. She was on my case for about 4 months, and I think she got everything accurate. We ended up no...t having to go to trial, and settled everything in mediation so I can't comment on her court demeanor or any formal recommendation. I felt a lot of relief having her come on and be a mediator between my ex and I and ultimately it did bring us back to the reality of our daughter's well-being. The cost for the entire 4 months is bobbing somewhere around $6,000 (I know a lot of people want to know upfront how much things cost) and was told by my lawyer that is perfectly reasonable. I would totally recommend her for anyone who gets a chance to pick their own GAL, and I believe she would also make a great personal attorney as well. She is level headed, grounded, open minded, and is personable; she handled everything professionally and was great with my daughter. Thank you Shannon!

A real warrior

Shannon took my case for a more than reasonable fee. She learned my case and ended up knowing everything about it and helped me stay sane in a horrible custody battle. She keeps you updated without having to ask. She has great knowledge about family law and gets involved for her clients. She is a goo...d face to put in front of your judge and GAL to explain your situation and the facts In your case. She is very honest about what results to expect whether it is good or bad.
