This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Not to be trusted

Sadly, our experience with Mr. Shelton was subpar. He plays insulting games during a very trying times for families. Doesn’t put in the work. Gambles with the outcome of others lives. Watch him like a hawk. He is far from trustworthy. It’s unfortunate that some are just in it for the money. A mem...ber of “THE BOYS CLUB”

useless GAL

This attorney is totally useless. Does not care about your kids or your rights as a parent. Will not look into anything and could care less about the truth. Nothing but a bottom feeder attorney who would never make it in the real world.
