Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I have had the opportunity to litigate opposite Shawn on many occasions, and have always found him to be prepared, professional, and skilled -- without devolving to the sort of pettiness and personal attacks that ensnare too many practitioners in this field. He is an adversary to be respected, and a valuable member of the family law Bar.
