Dissolution of marriage

Shawn is an exceptional lawyer who embodies fairness and ethics in his practice. Unlike many others in the legal field, he doesn't nickel and dime his clients, which is truly refreshing. What sets him apart is his commitment to communication; he consistently returns emails and calls promptly. Moreove...r, Shawn goes above and beyond by working closely with his clients, striving for a fair resolution that meets their needs.

Outstanding Lawyer

I hired Mr. Reid agreed to take my case and I could not have been more satisfied with his services! Straight forward honest and highly knowledgeable, he keeps the clients best interest first! The thing I liked most about him is that he never left a call or email unanswered. He even would call me to k...eep me informed! I highly recommend and will be using his services again! Thanks Shawn!

Excellent

He and his wife are amazing. During a hard time, he always answered my questions and concerns. He had a fair price, and we got the results we were seeking. I then referred him to a friend who also got the results they were seeking. Hands down, I will continue using his services when I can or ...need to.

Very knowledgeable and honest

There’s not enough I can say about Shawn. He’s been a man of blunt honesty when it came to my divorce/custody case 4 years ago when I was living in Canada. It was a long shot at best. He worked diligently and aggressively to secure what was in my sons best interest and we ended up settling out of cou...rt. Then came my custody modification. Due to issues raised by my son, Shawn filed for modification of time sharing. I live out of the state of Florida, so again my circumstance was unique. He worked with me at great lengths to build a strong case. I sit here today, 4 years after contacting Mr Reid, and we got a voluntary termination of parental rights. If you’re looking for an extremely knowledgeable attorney, someone who won’t waste your time and resources just to get $$, and someone who cares for you and your family... then I can recommend Shawn enough.
