Eternally grateful

I hired her for grandparent's rights. She filed my paperwork fast and got me a court hearing a right away. I'll be eternally grateful because I got temporary custody of my grandchild. I was so happy because I thought I wasn't going to see that baby again. The attorney was good in the courtroom an...d asked all the right questions.

OUTSTANDING at deposition and in trial

I was a little leery at first, because Shelly is pretty laid back and nothing seems to phase her. I suppose it's because she has seen and heard it all. But once she was in deposition, she obliterated my wife -- caught her in so many lies, and exposed her for the truth. Then we were in the court an...d Shelly did a great job. She was so prepared and knew the right questions to ask my wife. My spousal support went from $1,000.00 per month to $350.00 a month -- I could live with that. I really would recommend Attorney Kennedy. I read the other reviews here, and some of the not so positive ones seem to be written by clients not paying their bill -- at least that one review you can figure that out just by what was said. My divorce wasn't cheap, but that is not what I was after. I wanted someone to be very aggressive and very prepared. Shelly was both.

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. 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.
