Highly recommended

Mr. Shaw is extremely helpful, no matter what the circumstances. I would highly recommend him.

My personal recommendation

Melvin assisted me with settling my mother's estate. He was very attentive to my needs, and he made sure that all my questions were not only answered, but that I also had an understanding of the next steps and processes that were going to occur. Melvin and his staff are very personable, and it was ...such a pleasure working with them.

My review

Great experience. No need to say more. That's more than adequate. Not necessary to repeat myself just because you want more typed characters.

Power of Attorney

Having never met Mr. Shaw, I called on a recommendation and his assistant was very helpful in setting up an appointment in a very timely manner to see Mr. Shaw to get a POA attorney done for my parents who are elderly, do not hear or see well. He was very patient, helpful and provided this service in... a very short period of time so we could get it done in one trip and not have to transport my parents back a second time.

Mr & Mrs

Mr Shaw was professional, personable, clear, thorough, and patient. He guided us through the process and paperwork and made us feel at ease.
