Excellent Attorney!

Shon is an excellent attorney! She is smart, experienced, honest, dedicated and fair. She has represented me in several very important matters, and I have come away with a result that has been more than satisfactory on every occasion. She gives me sound advice and doesn't just tell me what I want ...to hear. I know that I can trust her to work for my best interest. Through the process, she also became a friend and someone I know I could count on if I got into a difficult position down the road. I would highly recommend Shon if you are looking for a family law attorney that will help make a painful process easier if there is any way she can. Thanks, Shon, for all you have done to represent me over the past couple of years!

divorce

Shon was an excellent attorney in representing me through my divorce, she suggested mediation which saved money, time and heartache. Shon responded timely to my emails and texts, and resolved the crisis at hand effectively. Shon and her staff gave me emotional support as well. Shon was recommended t...o me by another professional in the court system, she said, "Shon fights for her client and does not back down." I agree!

Worth every cent !!

I hired Shon and her team to represent me in a divorce that had many twists and turns. The divorce took 10 months due to craziness my ex wife kept throwing at Shon and her team. Never once did I hear Shon say lets get this over or settle. She coached me and believed in me and my family. I recall Shon... sitting in the court room looking like she was disconnected. She wasn't !! She was absorbing all the information and when she stood it was awesome to watch. I was nervous as heck but she was the calm that my family needed. Heck, even my Dad liked her. I'll suggest anyone to use Shon and her Team.

Very expensive

Shon was my lawyer while going threw divorce. She's very nice, but very expensive! I have paid her about 5000 dollars and we never really accomplished anything. That was just at the beginning of my divorce. Thankfully my husband and I could work things out. Who knows what I would have had to pay her ...in the end of everything:/

  • 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.
