Integrity Is Priceless

Shawn was very open about the cost of hiring counsel and our options. Our case didn't involve a lot of money and attorney fees would have taken a big amount out of any settlement . He provided sound advice and allowed us to make our own decision. He could have easily taken our money and represen...ted us and the outcome would have still been the same. However, he was honest and forthright. This is a good man to have on your side.

Shawn Potter is an exceptional attorney

Throughout my life and career, I have worked with many lawyers, some very good. However, Shawn Potter is the best I know. Shawn is so good that he handles my personal affairs, as well as work for my $10mm company. He is well versed in everything, from construction and real estate law, to estate plann...ing, etc. In fact, we even had Shawn take care of the adoption work for our daughter. Anyone would be fortunate to have Shawn represent them.

Client and Referral of Clients Review

Mr. Potter has handled two cases for me. He is always very responsive and thorough. We won one of the cases he handled for me and received very favorable dispositive orders in the other case that is still pending. I have also referred numerous clients to him, who have all been very happy with his ser...vice.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
