I am attorney and co-director of Open Legal Services, a nonprofit law firm. I finished law school with the intention of helping people like me; people of modest means and without a lot of options for legal representation. I am passionate about serving those who really have no other options: those in the middle, who are working hard but can be easily crippled by a legal setback. When no such job existed, I started OLS, Utah's first and only nonprofit modest means law firm, with Daniel Spencer in the hopes of serving that group and also building a life for myself and my family. So far, it's working! It's sustainable, growing rapidly, and helping so many people. Plus, it's shaking things up and that is something I always try to do.

Highly recommend!!
Shantelle helped me through my case with great communication, at an amazing price. She was nonjudgmental, explained things thoroughly, and I always felt like she was on my side and would work hard for me to get me the best deal. She and her colleagues are pure genius and nothing but humanitarian ...
