Good attorney

Very honest, made me feel relieved despite the situation and was never too busy to respond. This has been my best situation ever corresponding with an attorney and this was since 2008. Thank you Andrew, you deserve your high rating

Outstanding attorney

Andrew Shein is a true professional. In the beginning he informed me of all the scenarios of my case. Throughout, he kept in constant touch and returned all of my calls promptly. In the end he got my charges reduced, then completely dismissed. Bottom line is Andrew will make you feel like you are his... one and only client. I couldn't have been more pleased with his services, and would recommend him to anyone.

Posted by Patrick | March 30, 2016 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Exceptional Lawyer

Mr. Shein did a great job for me both on a DWI case as well as another criminal charge. There was never long gaps without communication, calls were either answered or returned promptly, and he was always very clear with what his plan/actions would be. In the future if I ever have a need I wouldn't e...ven consider another attorney for the job.

Another bad decesion

I hired this law firm to file a contempt motion on my ex wife because she was not letting me talk to or see my children. The lawyer that represented me from his office was Jaclyn Evilsisor. I was very specific in the consultation about what we were up against and that I needed someone aggressive. I w...asted an entire year with this attorney with no results whatsoever. It was a simple contempt motion that violated the current parenting plan. I was owed 3 weeks with my children in black and white and the outcome was unfavorable. I still do not understand why because it was never fully explained. At the end of the last hearing, after we lost, she finally admitted she was in over her head and that I should hire another lawyer. This did not stop her from sending me a huge bill. I would not recommend this attorney or law office. It has been over a year and I still have not seen my young children. I reported this to the Bar Association and am in process of filing suite against this firm wit my current attorney.
