Permanent residency

Shannon extremely helpful during my process. She made sure I stayed informed about everything in my case. When there was an update, she would let me know immediately. She’s great attorney but she’s an even better person. I’m so glad I got a chance to work with her. Definitely recommend her!

Shannon!! Honest, Accurate and SMART!

My wife and I had a great experience working with Shannon. No wonder why she had so many good reviews and perhaps she is the best immigration attorney in Lexington, KY. We successfully filed our naturalization applications with Shannon and she is a very accessible and honest person; makes you feel in...stantly at ease. Shannon was able to reduce my anxiety about the case by her attention to detail. I will always recommend her to anyone needing an immigration lawyer. Thank you Shannon!!!

Made a stressful process much easier!

Immigration is always stressful, no matter how straightforward the case is. Shannon clearly prepared us, outlined the steps that would be taken, and helped us to a successful conclusion. I’ve worked in offices with lawyers for many years and have seen all kinds, but Shannon is definitely one of the o...nes who is highly organized and genuinely cares about her clients and her work.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
