Ms Clausen

I really appreciate Shelley’s help. She is great listening skills and she was so helpful even with tips on how to improve and strengthen relationships. My son and I greatly appreciated her help today. We would hire her as and if needed.

Hands down ABSOLUTE BEST!!!!!!

When I was searching for an attorney, I had the most complicated guardianship /custody case imaginable. My son was in another state, I had multiple parties involved, it was a train wreck. I had met with other attorneys and I just did not have a good feeling at all. After my first talk with Shelley,... I knew without a doubt she was "The One" She listened and was caring and very honest about what I needed to be prepared for. She is very smart and knows the laws! I came to her feeling like she was my last hope. And I now have full custody of my son! I am so grateful that I was able to retain her and an affordable price and appreciate the amazing job she did with getting my son home.

Hard Working

Thanks for everything! I truly appreciate it!! There are times that I felt like I was being needy and high maintenance, but you never made it seem that way, and I really appreciate that. You have been a great person to work with. Promptly returning text and emails, even on weekends. Calling me in the... evenings because you know I’m teaching during the day. Calling and texting me on weekends to ease my worries that I was having at those very moments. I want you to know that all those things were noticed and very much appreciated. I definitely feel like you always went above and beyond, and genuinely cared about how I was feeling about things. You never dismissed me or made me feel like I was being unreasonable or demanding. I will highly recommend you to everyone and anyone that finds themselves in need of a family law attorney. Again, I super appreciate you!

The Best!

I was referred to Shelley by another attorney I know who said she was "the best!" and a "great advocate!" amongst other superlatives and she certainly lived up to that billing! She was so great helping me handle my divorce case. She is an excellent communicator and very easy to talk to. She was al...ways there for me when I needed her and provided very prompt and detailed attention to any of my needs. With her help I was able to wrap up my case in an amazingly short period of time with all aspects of the case working out to be a fair and amicable deal for everyone. I highly recommend Shelley!

Need Legal Advice? Pick Shelley.

I lost my mother to cancer in March 2021. I needed help sorting through the estate/probate process, and didn't have a clue where to start. Then I found Shelley. She was kind, honest, and professional. She explained all of the steps of the process beforehand and was very thorough. Shelley made the pro...cess easy and I never felt like I was out of the loop. I will be using her again in the future.
