Custody Case

Working with Mr. Shayman was, without a doubt, the most professional experience, I’ve had with an attorney. he answered all my questions and concerns in terms that I could comprehend. Frequently asked if I had any questions about anything that was involved in the case. When anything in the case was e...volving, he promptly emailed or called to let me know where we were at in the case. The work he did, involving my case, was nothing short of excellence. I highly recommend Mr. Shayman to anyone needing representation.

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.
