There when you need a lawyer
When I was going home one night from a meeting I was pulled over by a police officer. The officer got smart with me and said I ran a stop sign at the end of stree from the meeting. I had left the meeting and had to turn around to go back for something I had left behind. Long story short receive a ticket for running a stop sign that I stopped at however the cop felt that I ran it and since we didn't hit it off well from the beginning with his attitude he showed me who was boss and wrote a ticket. I spoke with Shannon Moore and he represented me and met me at the court date on the ticket and the cop didn't show and the judge canceled and reschedule. Well the next court date the officer didn't show. Shannon spoke with the judge and when the judge called my name and said he was dismissing the ticket and make sure to clearly stop in the future. With Mr. Shannon Moore as my attorney, he efficiently (time and money wise) made sure my record stayed clean and that a frivolous ticket in my opinion out of spite was nullified. Took 2 county court house visits 1 hr each so 2 hrs of my time and Shannon kept the cost down since he was having several cases at the same time while there. It was as easy as letting Shannon know the situation, retaining him and following his instructions. I was very pleased.

Family
We met with Shannon and he agreed to take the case. It was unusual family circumstances. We then met with his associate Chris Pankey who started the proceedings for the case. They are very knowledgeable about the law. Even though my circumstances were unusual he did a great job researching case laws and handling the situation. Very professional, great listeners and very fair. If I need any help in the future I will gladly go back to the Moore Law firm. I highly recommend them for whatever your need is.
