Shawn M Lowrey

I first met with Shawn Lowrey for potential representation in a very complicated, indeed life and death Conservatorship case involving the removal of my maternal uncle who suffered from late-state Alzheimer's Disease. My uncle was taken from his home and my care by a younger brother and moved into a...nother state. The litigation would be complicated, and I knew that going in, because I did not go into that meeting unawares. I spent the vast majority of my career in the legal profession as a corporate defense litigation paralegal in New Orleans, Louisiana, and Mobile, Alabama. The views from the top were excellent, as were the attorneys I worked with, the creme' de la' creme' of prestigious law schools. The Lowrey firm, and Shawn Lowrey in particular, were highly recommended to me by a renowned Judge, the Senior Chancery Judge in the State of Mississippi. It did not take me long to realize that the young lawyer sitting across the conference table from me was indeed a 'go-getter,' an attorney whose representation would be stellar. More than a year passed before my uncle, by then dying, was rescued from his brother-abductor. Throughout the course of litigation in Mississippi, through Acts of Congress certifications, and Mr. Lowrey's direction of litigation in the State of Tennessee (against opposing counsel in both states whose jobs were to delay all proceedings, at all costs) - my respect and admiration for Mr. Lowrey grew, and grew large. He represented me as a zealous advocate, an ethical attorney whose first Statement for Services Rendered was FAR below what I expected. I never had a problem contacting him. He kept me constantly informed, on a daily basis. I never questioned a single charge on my monthly statements and, in fact, knew that he did not charge me for things other attorneys would have, as a matter of routine. I read a very misleading review of Shawn Lowrey on this website, and felt COMPELLED to 'correct the record.' In my thirty-plus years of legal experience, I learned many things, and this one stands out: When a client complains that an attorney filed something incorrectly, a red flag should go UP. When a client REQUESTS that something be filed in contested litigation? My advice to the attorney representing such a client would be to FIRE them, quickly. There are clients who know nothing about law who watch TV too much, have friends who tell them wild tales of impossible courtroom victories and who, as a consequence, are never happy with an outcome - primarily because the outcome they seek is impossible. Do not be misled, and by all means have no fear of misrepresentation. Shawn Lowrey is an uncommon attorney - ethical, trustworthy, highly intelligent, and committed to the best interests of his clients. As someone who has been on 'both sides' of litigation, I would match him against the best and brightest out there, sleep like a baby at night, and never look back.
