Mr. Edward Shohat has the experience, knowledge but above all human compassion!

Never dreamed I could ever have such a positive experience in such a negative experience that I was living when my family hired Mr. edward Shohat for my defense in a federal court case. I was been accused in 7 counts including a conspiracy; with Mr. Shohat's counseling I wound up having to plea guilt...y of only 1 charge. Thank You Mr. edward Shohat for helping me move on with my life!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
