Great Job

Steve Shewmaker came highly recommended as an attorney. I did extensive research on hiring an attorney for my divorce. I chose Steve because he is very well respected among his colleagues as being ethical, honest, and intelligent. He is understanding and has exceptional foresight in how a case could ...be determined. Steve’s ability to put things in perspective and get me to look down the road saved me a lot of money. He also saved me a lot of money because he is very efficient. My divorce started in 2014 and I hired Steve. The wife and I worked things out. A year later I was getting divorced again. I was talked into using another attorney by some friends. This attorney had all the credentials so to speak. Two months into my divorce I fired that attorney and went back to Steve. I later found out that Steve also practices Military Law, which came in very helpful since I am a Military Reservist. Through my contacts in the military I found out that Steve is one of the top Military Attorney’s in the nation. My X-Wife even trusted Steve and sought his advice. At the tail end of the divorce my X-Wife’s attorney dismissed her as a client. Although Steve could not advise her on how to proceed he explained things at her level and we were finally able to work through the last few issues. A divorce is one big compromise on everything. Steve was in my corner the whole way. His ability to work with the other side was key for my settlement. I received exceptional visitations rights and did not have to pay alimony. I even got to keep the house. My divorce settlement was very favorable to me. All because of Steve’s ability as an attorney and hard work.

Excellent Cousel

Steve was very detailed, knowledgeable of family law, and provided the right balance of "good cop & bad cop" when needed to guide me through a difficult process. He zealously advocated on my behalf while never losing sight, nor failing to remind me of doing what was in the best interest of my childre...n. He kept me out of jail. Enough said. I highly recommend him as he produced satisfactory results.

Excellent Lawyer

I have dealt with a few lawyers in the past and Steve Shewmaker outshines them all. His initial consultation was straight forward and fair. I was facing an uphill battle and he let me know that upfront. He was very knowledgeable and advised me accordingly. Every email that was sent by opposing counse...l was shared with me immediately. Every new development in my case was brought to my attention within an hour. Every phone call I made, email I sent, or question I had was answered quickly by either Steve himself or one of his team members. I always felt like my case was important and I was well taken care of. Against difficult odds my requests were granted. I am now the primary physical custodian of my beautiful daughter. Thank you Shewmaker and Shewmaker!!

Excellent Military Attorney

I was deployed half way around the world facing a career-ending adverse action. Mr. Shewmaker was with me through every aspect of the process from notification of investigation through response to findings and recommendations. He skillfully identified errors on the part of Command and presented th...e facts in a way that led to a positive resolution of my case. I would recommend Mr. Shewmaker to any servicember.
