Edward Francis Shaughnessy III

He was appointed to me. I spent 6 months in jail on a bond I couldn’t afford with conditions restricting me from returning home if bond was possible. When the money was raised we hired an attorney instead and within 3 days I was released from jail and a flood of motions began to get filed on my behal...f. Court appointed attorneys are said to have to represent you to the fullest extent but they aren’t held to it. That has allowed Shaughnessy to collect small checks in return for zero work while lives are devastated. The 3 times I spoke with him he was obviously irritated and blatantly rude. The last time he began cursing and getting very rude when questioned about his obvious lack of effort. He did nothing for 6 months while I was in jail. 2 months after hiring another lawyer he filed a request for payment.
