Exceptional Representation!

Amy came to represent me in my case through recommendation and I am here to pass on that recommendation to you. For me, being involved in the courts and having them decide the precious time that my daughter and I have together has been and still is a very frightening and threatening series of events.... Amy has been with me every step of the way, from the initial separation and throughout the journey that our case has turned into. She has listened to me with care and compassion and she represents me with confident expertise while in the courtroom. She helps me to understand my own legal rights in relation to my particular case and events. She has provided guidance through interactions and decisions that can feel very difficult. I feel so fortunate to have an attorney that is not only exceptional at her ability to relate the events in a case to the laws of the courts, but also one whom I believe sincerely cares about the outcome of my case - because frankly, it will directly affect my daughter’s life. Please believe me when I say, she is a genuine person, of strong moral character, that clearly cares about the implications of her work. If you choose Mrs. Shaw to represent you, I can confidently say that you will be very pleased with your decision.

5 star attorney

Excellent. She came at a time in need, highly recommended, it was a very stressful time, but having her represent me took that stress off of my chest and was able to focus on the case at hand. She is very knowledgeable of the law, caring and acknowledges all of the feelings involved with the stressfu...l situation. I will continue to have her by my side if I ever am in need of her services again.

"Amy is a compassionate, diligent and caring lawyer. Not only does she represent her clients, but she strives to do so in a manner that ensures the best outcome. She is well able to negotiate a settlement, but also unafraid to take the case to court if that is the necessary next step. It is for these reasons that I happily endorse Amy!"

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.
