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.
