My best decision in a very long time!

The custody portion of my divorce had not been going well with my previous lawyer despite the facts of the case being in my favor, so I let him go with the idea that I would handle the case myself. I was completely overwhelmed, but still didn't think I wanted to hire a lawyer when I got the letter in... the mail from Mr. Shah. After a couple of days I got a subpoena for a hearing about child support even though and order on support had just been filed. I decided that I needed a lawyer again after all, so I decided to meet with him. I was impressed by his idea of a strategy for my case, so I hired him. Over the next month he moved quickly and got the extra case dismissed. He then set a hearing for another case management to again request additional time sharing. While this is only a temporary plan, he has already got me more time with my son than I could have hoped at 3 days per week now. I had been getting very little time and this was a drastic increase for me. As things stand now I feel we are in a good position moving forward to get the results I'm hoping for. I couldn't be more pleased with Mr. Shah's performance so far. He prepared an excellent strategy and in court was very intelligent and thorough in his questions. As far as I'm concerned, the quality of his performance for me so far would have been underpriced at twice the price he's asking. Other practical matters would be that he has always been courteous and responded promptly to all communication, whether text, call, or email. Another positive to me is that he is very eager to apply the leverage to try to convince my ex to settle without a long court fight. While my ex is more stubborn than most, I think his methods would be effective in nearly every other case, and may still be effective in mine despite her unwillingness so far.

Mr. Shah got me more time with my daughter!

FIRST, the below review shouldn't pertain to Mr. Shah's amazing work as it was clearly written by the mother of our daughter in this case. You simply have to understand that the majority of emails that are being sent in relation to this particular case are relevant due to its nature. If you aren't ...a lawyer or law clerk, don't try to understand the line of work they do on a daily basis with false information. Mr. Shah got me more time than I expected with my daughter. At first, I was lost and had no idea how the law even worked within this matter but now have become very knowledgeable in this area. NO ONE can interrupt the time that Mr. Shah won me in court and if ever I needed him again he will certainly be my first contact. Going from wishy washy not knowing when I will see our daughter to having practically the entire summer and shared parental rights!! I thank each of you for your hard work!!

Family/ Disestablishment Paternity

I was completely LOST, SCARED and confused when my son dad (Legal Dad who Signed the Bith Certificate) came to me and advised that he performed a home DNA test on "our" child and found the results 0%. I was terrified better yet in denial. From that point forth everything became a nightmare on Elm Str...eet for me. I couldn't only imagine some of the things he was thinking. Listening to other people I went to Child Support to get a real DNA to really get answers! That made it worst because he had already signed the birth certificate 8 months ago. He landed on Child Support papers flowing in left and right from the Department of Revenue then I was served AT MY JOB BY HIS LAWYER. Such a bad look. I was so upset! First thing I remembered was Shah he sent me an advertisement earlier in the month in regards of my case that was publicly filed. I called him with no hesitation he told me to meet him at his office. I explained the situation when he told me this case was easy as 123 and gave me the price I was down for it. I felt untouchable when I left his office. Battling a battle like this was very stressful but Shah always reassured me that everything would be fine. Everything turned out for the best and I've never been so relieved in life. This is a long story but this wasn't a easy ride for me but to have a lawyer like Shah on your side is the best way to go! :)

My Divorce

Mr Shah is an amazing attorney. He answered all my questions and handled every aspect of my divorce. On the day of my divorce he was in an accident on the way there & instead of rescheduling he handled it by phone (conference call ) while I was in front of judge. He also handled my brother's divorce ...& did an outstanding job on his as well. He is such an amazing attorney he will be handling my nephews as well. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

There are no words to decribe the level of awesomeness

Mr. Shah represented me in a child custody case, including a complicated and confusing interstate jurisdictional dispute. Prior to contacting Mr Shah, I spent roughly $3,700 on consultations with high priced law firms and private attorneys. Even one claiming to be the best firm in the state (most exp...erience, board certified, refundable retainers, blah..blah..blah) Each consultation left me feeling discouraged, nearly hopeless, and lighter in the wallet. I took a chance and called Mr. Shah after receiving his flyer in the mail. After about 15 seconds of being on the phone, I realized that he had a ton more work ethic and determination in him that any of the high priced attorneys I spoke with in the past. He was able to tell me (with the little bit of information I was able give within a few minutes) what we were going to do, how we were doing to do, and 3 possible outcomes; and he said it with such confidence. Needless to say, everything went exactly as Mr. Shah said it would. Throughout the whole process, Mr. Shah and his team were extremely responsive to my emails, phone calls, etc. and were always able to clarify any confusion and questions I had with compassion and assurance. I would list many more of Mr. Shah's virtues and outstanding qualities, but there is not enough room. I would highly recommend Mr. Shah to anyone needing an attorney.
