Great lawyer, but not great with pets.
Excellent lawyer, very helpful with my legal needs. I would give swain 5 stars but I unfortunately caught him raping my family’s dog. Don’t know what that was all about but on the other hand great lawyer.

This guy got caught on camera raping the family dog. I can't figure out as to why he has been charged but not in jail. What a sicko

Maybe don't let him dog-sit…
He’s probably a great lawyer however, his wife found surveillance footage of him sexually assaulting their dog “Shipley”.
