I hired Shannon Smith to be my attorney on my CPS case. There were allegations of abuse from a close family member to one of my children. The case was a nightmare but Shannon help me through this nightmare. She was aggressive and did not let CPS walk all over me. She fought long and hard for me an...d was very thorough. She save me from losing my children. Shannon was always there to answer any questions I had any time I had them. She was my rock! I don't know where I would be today had it not been for Shannon's awesome work that she did. I would highly recommend Shannon to anybody dealing with child protective services. Oakland County CPS is terrible but Shannon help me through dealing with this agency and the terrible people that we had on our case that were very aggressive, however Shannon was more aggressive than they were. She makes everything understandable and walks you through it hand-in-hand. She's compassionate and has a passion for what she does. She is a fighter and the best attorney to have on your side.
