Shannon has also been on the other side of cases with me. In both situations, Shannon was a very knowledgeable and polished litigator. She knows the courthouse and the individual courts and she knows and uses the law for the best interest of her clients. She is truly impressive. She is a tough adversary but always professional. I endorse Shannon Boudreaux as a very experienced and polished professional child custody lawyer."

"I have known Shannon since she was a young lawyer and I was a law student. She mentored me in family law. Quite unlike so many lawyers practicing family law, Shannon truly cares about her clients, considers their best interests and can be relied upon for ethical and sound judgment calls. She knows the law, she knows the courts and she wins cases. As a former family law attorney who once worked beside her and now, as a lawyer employed by one of the largest global firms in the U.S., Shannon would be my first phone call if I needed a family law attorney. She is good people and in family law, truly good people are increasingly hard to find."
