Chad C Shattuck

Please read this before hiring Chad Shattuck or his firm to represent you. I am a former client of Chad’s and I am only writing this review after trying multiple times to resolve my concerns with him and his law firm. Their unwillingness to stand by their work and make things right has been very disa...ppointing and makes what would have been a 2 or 3-star review (or no review at all) a definite 1-star review. While he was representing me, Chad was okay to work with and I didn’t have too many complaints, but after my divorce went through, I discovered critical mistakes were made in my divorce paperwork relating to retirement account division that led to an unexpected tax loss of $3,700. In speaking with other attorneys, the penalty could have been avoided if Chad understood basic retirement account division in divorce, had advised me appropriately, and drafted my paperwork correctly. As a new single mom, having to come up with thousands of dollars I was not planning on was financially painful to me and my kids at an already stressful time. When I contacted Chad and pointed out the problem, he was dismissive and initially told me I didn’t know what I was talking about. When I pursued the issue and pointed him to the specific things that he had not done correctly, he changed his position and told me he had never advised me to do it that way. When given proof that he did in fact advise me incorrectly, he stopped responding to me. I understand everyone makes mistakes. What upset me most was that when I respectfully brought the mistakes to his and his law firm’s attention, instead of looking into the issue and trying to make it right, they have done everything possible to avoid responsibility for the mistakes made. This has been extremely disappointing because when you pay a professional like Chad thousands of dollars for their expertise and advice in order to have things done correctly, there is a certain level of expectation that when mistakes are made, they will stand by their work and make things right, and this has simply not happened. Avoid them if you can!

Chad and Lori were super helpful and nice. They explained everything throughout my divorce and kept me updated the entire time. I attempted to do my divorce online, and after nearly a year of headache, a friend recommended chad to me and he got it finalized in just a month! Definitely recommended if ...you need an attorney:)

From the initial meeting, I knew Tycksen & Shattuck , LC was the right fit. Chad is a caring, passionate, dedicated, knowledgeable and excellent attorney. He immediately recognized my ex husbands personality issues. From there, he identified what was needed in order for me to be able to go on with ...my life without being continually harassed. I felt like every time I was faced with another hurdle, Chad instantly outline my options while putting my best interest first. I always felt Chad was invested in me and my case. He was easily accessible, got back to me quickly, aggressive when needed and got me the results that I wanted. He is definitely someone you want on your side to hep you through this stressful and at times painful process. Chad provided excellent and quality serve. All issues were handled professionally and timely. I highly recommend him. Chad, thank you for your compassion, attention to detail and taking the time to address all of my concerns throughout my proceedings.
