Posted by anonymous | September 25, 2015 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

One very smart and very savvy lawyer!

I was picked up by the police on a bogus drug case. They had no right to stop or search me, and no proof that the cannabis found in my car belonged to me and not one of my passenger's - coworkers I was driving home. The police charged me anyway. They laughed and joked all the way to the station. I... was referred to Shannon by a family friend. Not only did he have a plan, he executed it perfectly and exposed the cops who busted me as the unlawful knuckleheads that they were. The judge chewed them out right there in the court! It was great, and oh so satisfying. Charges were dropped, of course.

Saved my life!

I was on my 2 attorney who basically just took my money and got continuances. Then when it came time for trial he told me to plead guilty after telling me for months we were going to win. I got Shannon's name from a a guy in court. In the first meeting he explained more to me than both of my other ...attorneys had all that time. He told me the truth about everything and we went to trial and I was not guilty of everything! I could have spent at least 6 years in prison, what my second attorney wanted to accept!! I hope I don't have to hire Shannon again, but I'm telling everyone to hire him.
