Kelly T. Shattuck

My son and I hired Kelly to help him regain custody of his kids. In over two years he has failed to do ANYTHING to advance my son's case. Yesterday was the worst - my son and his wife spent months to create a forensic timeline, complete with supporting emails, texts, and audio/video files completel...y cross-referenced with notes, which Kelly did not reference a single time. In addition, the counselor for my grandkids was supposed to testify at this hearing but Kelly FORGOT to subpoena him!! Kelly did not refute (by cross examination) the testimony of my son's ex-girlfriend (kids' mom) even though my son was whispering to Kelly that she was lying and he had the emails in hand to prove it. Kelly told him to shut up so he could listen! I was helping my son pay his legal bills, and have ponied up well over $6000 in this year alone, but Shattuck will not get another penny from me after his sophomoric showing in court. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!

Kelly currently represents me for a custody case regarding my children - due to the nature of the case and it not being finalized yet, I'm not going to comment about it, what I can say about Kelly is that he continues to be veracious in court and a isn't afraid to back down from a fight. He's determi...ned to win the right way and ensuring the client's interests are being looked out for. I would strongly recommend Kelly to any of my friends or, strangers, going through custody battle as this isn't his first rodeo. Kelly has continued going to bat for me and winning the small "battles" hearings that we've attended thus far until we get to court.

I found myself in a terrible situation. My ex wife was cheating on me and lieing to me not honoring our marriage. I tollerated till it started to affect the kids. I had to man up and divorce her. Hired a friend of a friend's attorney and filed. She left didn't let me see the kids and my first attorne...y made such a mess it wasn't looking good for me to get joint custody. Then out of desperation and firing my first attorney I was calling around to try to find anouther attorney. Kelly was the only one that spoke with me over the phone before receiving payments. He made me feel at ease I thus hired him. After that life changed he straitened out the mess my previous attorney made and before I knew it we were in the driver's seat. He fought hard for my finances and my reputation as a father. The results were clear!!! He won me my boy. Joint 5050 no child support no allimony no paying for her attorney. I can not thank Kelly enough. When my life was in shambles he came in and saved the day and many days after!!! Kelly if you read this it's been a couple of years but I wanted to say thank you. The impact you've had on my life was imeasurable and rarely do I feel thankful for having my son do I not think of you!!! Your a Damn fine attorney and man!!

Mr. Shattuck is the best family law attorney available and I would highly recommend him to anyone going through a divorce or custody case. He has a complete command of the law and once he heard my facts, he was able to explain exactly what needed to be done to accomplish my goals. He didn't sugar c...oat the process to get my business. He maintained communications throughout the process and sent me copies of everything including monthly statements showing everything done on my case. If I had questions, he was always willing to call or email me back with the answers. In court he was excellent especially in his cross examination where he really pointed out the weakness of the other attorney's case and where I felt made the difference. He was direct and tried to present the materials to the judge in a simple matter that I also thought helped. His staff was always professional and very helpful. In the end, Mr. Shattuck was able to accomplish my goals. I won custody and the financials came out as he had explained they would during or initial meeting.
