Family lawyer | May 01

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Shannon is one of those lawyers who you can tell is always thinking ten steps ahead. That makes her a good lawyer and a good mediator. So often clients don't even realize how their small decisions could affect the outcome of their case down the line. With Shannon's skillset she can easily help a client avoid what could easily become a costly mistake."

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.
