Attentive and Thorouy

Excellent service for a nasty land dispute in Hesperia. Definitely went out of his way to give me and my family a helping hand. I’ll be using their services for future transactions and issues.

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Trustworthy and fight tirelessly on behalf of his clients.

My wife and I suffered losses from a bad business deal and the resulting financial fallout also severely impacted our personal finances. For nearly two years, Shawn has tirelessly fought to protect us from overwhelming collection efforts and multiple creditor lawsuits. He is not just our attorney, he... is our trusted confidant. He goes above and beyond to remind us that we will emerge from these challenges relatively unscathed very soon and keeps encouraging us to focus on our rebuilding efforts while he handles the painful byproducts of bad deals and bad debts that were incurred years ago. Thanks to his knowledge and willingness to advocate on our behalf, we know that this period of financial difficulty will be over soon and we cannot express our gratitude enough. Humbly, we are at least able to give Shawn our highest recommendation to others who may be facing similar circumstances. He is a lifesaver.

Got the job done quickly and easily!

I contacted Shawn to represent me for a contract case I was dealing with. He was great!! Not only did he handle the agreement negotiations professionally and efficiently but he also made sure that all of my requests were integrated into the contract. I could not have ask for a better representativ...e!

Best Lawyer Ever!

I was sued by a junk debt buyer for a credit card i defaulted on, so I contacted Shawn to see what my options were. My consultation with him was very helpful, and really put me at ease. His knowledge of how this whole process works assured me I had a fighting chance. He gave me a realistic view of wh...at i was facing and advised me of the most likely outcome, given my specific situation. After preparing my answer to the complaint, it was very apparent that this debt collector had no basis for a suit, as they immediately tried to settle. Shawn advised me to see it thru a little longer. We served discovery on them, they never responded, and I got a call from Shawn telling me the case was dismissed! His experienced, level headed approach to this situation was absolutely the reason for the favorable outcome I received. I was lucky to find an attorney of his caliber for my representation. Every step of the way he was available, and answered every question or concern I had. He was very honest with every aspect of my case, which made me feel very comfortable throughout the entire process. He is, without a doubt, your best choice for representation.
