This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Family law/divorce proceedings

Ms. Shutts was massively unprofessional in the handling of my case. She was unprepared at trial, unhelpful during discovery, and never protected my interests. In the end, opposing counsel never even participated in discovery, and Ms. Shutts went to court stumbling over the case. She seemed muc...h more interested in her accolades and awards than in her clients.

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.
