Always Available to help

Shana J Black was professional, courteous, understanding and available. There is no doubt that she's always on top of the legal aspects involved in the case. Unfortunately the other party created drama and issues that were unnecessary and I must say that Shana was always open and available to help.... They answer their phones and return messages. There are never winners in this deal but I can say that we achieved everything I was striving for. I would recommend Shana and thank her for all of her hard work.

Easy to deal with

Attorney Shana B. was my representative in my recent child custody case. As a law professional, all I can say is that Attorney Shana J. is an outstanding one – competent, diligent, knowledgeable and very thorough. She is also accessible and promptly returns emails and phone calls. She would even arra...nge meetings that would accommodate my schedule. Even with her other cases, she made me feel that mine was important as well. She is easy to talk to and overall a nice person.

Shana Black is my hero

Shana Black is absolutely amazing. She has helped me so much with getting custody of my daughter and my divorce. She is very understanding and knows, very much, what she is doing. I know that it is very hard for a father to get custody of their child but if you need help doing that or need help with ...your divorce, she is definitely the person to talk to. She helped me get custody of my daughter and keep all my possessions from my divorce. She truly is a saint and I would definitely recommend and refer her to anyone that is going through a family court case. Shana Black truly is a saint.

Child Support/Alimony

I don't know where to begin, but Ms. Black is awesome in my book. I contacted her many months before I went to court and she stayed on the phone with me seems like forever. Well anyways to fast forward to days before my court date I called her and asked her to come to court with me now remind you I h...ad not talked to her for months after the first conversation. She picks right up and that particular day I had the worst anxiety and I told her I can't do this by myself so I asked her could she go to court with me she came without any hesitation. She walked in that courtroom and did her thing I got a continuance. My court date came Ms. Black walked in that courtroom and made my ex husband look like the liar he has always been, she questioned him in away that I felt sorry for him because she caught him in so many false statements, even the judge was looking at him like why are you lying. To make a long story short she made it happen where I still receive a large portion of my support, she talked to me throughout the day we were in court and reassured me that I was okay and I had nothing to worry about and I won. I would recommend her to anyone people who came on here being negative needs to realize the woman has a life and I am quite sure she has many cases. I would end my review by saying

Thank you Shana!!!

very highly recommend this attorney! She is very knowledgeable and she very quickly spots the weaknesses of the other side (my x!). The judge agreed with everything Ms. Black argued in my divorce, and the other attorney seemed bewildered. She has a great work ethic. She is a hard worker, very honest,... reliable, and a fighter. She kept me informed throughout the case and got me everything she said she would. I am a very pleased client and if I ever need an attorney again, Ms. Black will be the first I call.
