Shira Truitt

Attorney Truitt is a ghost of an attorney. I hired her for a case and she neglected to show up for my court date and never reached out to communicate why she missed. She hired a third party answering service and you're not able to reach her directly. I've left several messages via email and phone and... she has yet to return my calls.

This lady held a meeting at my church this Saturday, she was very, very disrespectful, telling us the members to shut up, said she was going to sue the church, if we didn’t pay her. First of all the church never hired her, was not voted on to hire her. The pastor took upon hisself to hire her, which ...he should be responsible for her payment. I understand lawyers are tough, but there is a difference between tough and being downright disrespectful. She also stated that we are not a congregational church, which is not true, since we are not a congregational church per her statement that means the Pastor is null and void, because the congregation voted.. She also brought up The Union in the church business, and the church is not union, what happen to the statement of separation between State and Church. She will not ever be recommended as a lawyer.

Shira Truitt was exceptional, and I would recommend her to everyone! She explained everything fully up front, was easy to email any questions, prompt with returning phone calls or information regarding my case, qualified in both Illinois and Missouri, and her demeanor was perfect for my case, a great... balance of professionalism, understanding, and she definitely wasn’t like my last attorney I had to let go. She came into my case FIGHTING, made sure my marital agreements benefited me, ensured I was able to claim my kids since I was paying for healthcare, etc. I would highly recommend Shira to anyone and will use her again if needed.

I paid for our consiltation on a very easy case. She seened very professional and I was very excited to get her help. I sent her a check for my case and the documents she requested over 4 months ago and havent heard a single word since. I have called 8 times, made 2 appointments she didnt show up for.... SO disappointed in such a high level of unprofessionalism. BEWARE!
