Shane and his team were extremely helpful, they guided me through the process step by step and communicated very well. I especially appreciate that when we received our first offer from the other party Shane explained that they could get more with more time, but if I needed the money we could settle ...

"Shane exhibits all the qualities you want in an attorney. He is honest, hardworking, and truly cares about his clients. I endorse and recommend him for civil litigation matters."
"Shane is conscientious, driven and skillful. I have referred cases to Shane and worked with him over the past several years and he consistently goes above and beyond to deliver for his clients. These traits, coupled with his dedication and professionalism, make Shane a go-to attorney for any client who needs meaningful results."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have mediated several matters for Shane and his clients. He is always well prepared and achieves sound results for his clients."
"Shane can handle a variety of cases, but I have been particularly impressed with his personal injury and employment work. He is very informed on these topics and can quickly pinpoint the issues involved to give prospective clients a realistic view of their potential case. He is a very hard worker that impresses both clients and opposing attorneys."
"Shane is a helpful and knowledgeable attorney. A pleasure to work with. He is focused on both the details of his case as well as serving the broad picture of his client's needs."
"Shane is a competent, ethical and caring lawyer. While he excels in many areas of the law, he is always willing to roll up his sleeves and learn new areas of the law, as well as staying on top of developments within the law. Too many lawyers see the practice of law as a game of one-upmanship, winning at all costs, and cutting corners when convenient: not Shane; when he gives his word, whether to a client, a judge, or the other side’s lawyer, he keeps it. Shane treats clients the way he would expect to be treated, and that means keeping his clients informed, zealously advocating for his clients, and listening to what his clients really want to achieve. Unfortunately, these are characteristics that have been all-too-often forgotten as a new generation of lawyers sees the privilege of practicing law simply as a license to earn a paycheck and not, as Abraham Lincoln once said that the practice of law provided lawyers: “the opportunity of being a good man.”"
"I endorse this lawyer. On all matters that I've handled with Shane, he has been competent and professional."
"Shane is truly a gifted lawyer, with a sharp and inquisitive legal mind. He has the ability to see through the complications of any given case to find the sure and quick path to resolving the matter in his client's favor. In dealing with transactional work, Shane is careful and probing. Shane can and will notice problems in a deal that may not otherwise be detected until long after the deal is done when resolving the issue can be expensive and perilous. By such foresight, he can solve a problem for his client today, and avoid messy litigation months or years down the road."
"Shane exemplifies all of the best qualities of a personal injury attorney. He is thoughtful, insightful and strategic in his approach to each matter entrusted to him. He also takes a client centered approach that makes his clients feel as though they are part of the process every step of the way."
