He is the one you are looking for

He helped my divorce case which was going on and on since 2010. He is definitely experienced, he is simple and straight forward. I can't say how much I appreciate what he did for me. He can be very aggressive if needed, he knows how to handle the case in his way. Got bless i met a great attorney lik...e him!!

God Blessed me to have Mr. Shewmaker as my Lawyer

Let me begin by saying "THANK YOU" to Mr. Shewmaker. My case was a child custody case with my ex-husband. I had another lawyer that honestly did not have the chops to carry out my case. I was referred to Mr. Shewmaker by another law firm in the Altanta area due to his military experience. I needed re...al help, my case was 2 hours away but, I needed a good lawyer and he was not only GOOD but AWESOME. I was awarded custody and I thank God, Mr. Shewmaker, and the Judge for making that so. All truth will come to light and he has the experience and know-how to fight the tough cases.

Honest and Up-Front

I presented a very unique problem to Steve, which I had been dealing with for a long time. My bottom line experience was that I got what I came for “CLOSURE”. I can now continue on with my journey thanks to Steve!

Steve's work is impeccable

Cool, calm and calculating, just to name a few of Steve's qualities. He is definitely a "straight shooter" and keeps you well informed of the reality of your case but offers realistic options and great advice. I never felt that the focus was about money. You hear so many horror stories about attorney...s but my experience has been a pleasurable one with Steve. He is very focused even when you think he's playing around. His performance in court demonstrated his ability to control and guide the case to a favorable outcome. He is a natural leader with many great qualities. Even the opposing counsel seemed to look towards Steve for direction at times. Steve's approach is simple but effective. He cuts through all the bureaucratic nonsense and gets right down to business. As a man in a custody case, I had my reservations about using a male attorney but it was the best decision I made other than seeking full custody of my children. I guess because of Steve's military background, I tend to think of his performance as a "Drone attack". He does a massive amount of preparation and then things seem to get eerily quiet at times. I sometimes thought that I had been forgotten but Steve was only looking out for my expenses. His phone calls were brief and to the point. Steve is not going to waste your time or money on useless conversation. When the time came he attacked every possible aspect, with great precision. He picked apart the opposing counsel and was such a gentleman about it. The bottom line is that Steve is an amazing attorney, extremely ethical, very knowledgable and professional.

Steven P. Shewmaker

Mr. Shewmaker handled every aspect of my case with integrity. He lent a helping hand and was sympathetic and understanding and worked towards the best interest of myself and my family at all times. I would gladly hire him again for ANY legal need.
