Posted by anonymous | April 18, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Personal Injury

Compassionate, Knowledgeable and Experienced

I can’t thank Shane Colton enough for the extremely professional and successful experience I had with his firm. I was in an accident in Montana while living in Wyoming. I was severely injured and had undergone numerous reconstructive surgeries in Colorado and California. My medical and travel expe...nses were overwhelming. When I contacted Shane he only had a few days before the 4th of July weekend to file a lawsuit on my behalf in another county in Montana. His compassionate and lightning quick response helped me achieve a favorable settlement. I can say with the utmost confidence that Shane is hardworking and deeply cares about the clients he represents. I highly recommend the Law Firm of Edmiston and Colton!

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.
