She is an excellent lawyer

Ms Shelton is an excellent lawyer. I would definitely recommend her to anyone going through a divorce. She is very knowledgeable about what she does. I had a very difficult divorce but at the end Ms Shelton made sure the right thing was done. She can be a little expensive but I promise you, she is wo...rth the money.

Don't wait to call someone else!

When I first hired Shelly she promised me everything would go great and that I had a strong case for taking my ex back to court for some modification issues. The communication was the worst possible she did not inform me on anything going on through telephone, email or snail mail . When I tried ...to call her to try to get some answers on why nothing was happening months later her and her assistant would just cut me short, tell me they will check into it, But never got back to me. This is the rudest nonprofessional attorney who was also extremely unprepared for trial. She did not know my case even at trial. Do not waste your time or money. Having to hire another attorney to fix her mess had to be done. But before I did this I tried to call to speak with her and was treated with the upmost disrespect and rudeness . Stay far, far away from her Is my best advice.

Family lawyer | Aug 10

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. She is one of only 5 board certified family attorneys in her judicial circuit - 3 county area. In fact that there are fewer than 300 board certified family attorneys out of over 90,000 members of the Florida Bar and she is one of them. She is knowledgeable, professional and tough! Always the lady but not one to be run over in a trial. She will try to settle a case, informally or in mediation if possible, but if not she has no reservations about going to trial with the issues. I recently tried an alimony case against her and she was very we prepared. Did an excellent job... She is very well respected by her collegues and the judiciary. Actually she is probably one of the best family law attorneys in the entire Central Florida area. I would have no reservations about referring any client of mine to her for further representation shoujld the need arise."
