Posted by Josie | October 27, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Bankruptcy & Debt

I feel like he saved my life! BEST ATTORNEY EVER!!

I was buried in debt after having emergency surgery with no health insurance and was out of work for 3 months. My home was in foreclosure, I was hiding my car each night from the repo people and my phone rang literally all day long with collection calls. I was devastated and so overwhelmed that I wa...s basically paralyzed. I was referred to Kevin from a friend and was so nervous I actually skipped my first appointment. He called and left me a voicemail later that night to check on me and to see if i still needed help. He convinced me to come back in a couple of days later and thank god I listened. He helped me save my home and my car AND got me out of over $100,000 in overdue medical and credit card bills, but he was also just a very genuine, caring person that helped me in every way that he could. I will ALWAYS recommend Kevin Shields! Thanks Kevin!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Kevin and I have worked on a serious injury case together, he handled the Indiana aspects of the claim and I was more than impressed with his responsiveness and his attention to detail. I have also recommended to a number of folks for bankruptcy and they were more than happy with his representation. I highly recommend Kevin and his firm."

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. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
