Extremely knowledgeable
Of the several lawyers I spoke to on a family inheritance and real estate matter, Ms Shaw was by far most well versed. She understand the pros and cons of the various options and was able to explain them clearly to me a layperson. Ms. Shaw was also very responsive and professional.
