Nope

I'm sorry? Do I have an attorney? She doesn't respond. Extremely hard to get ahold of. Too busy not representing her clients.

Joke

This woman’s complaint history speaks for itself. Her good reviews are from individuals who know her personally as friends or family, not real professional clients. This woman is a complete joke. She is condescending, unprofessional and has a really poor work ethic. I fired her on the spot.

Horrible

Did not do her job right! She over charges as well and wasn't straight forward about things. I will not go back to her.

Professional legal service worth its weight in gold!

I called the Oregon State Bar for a referral for an employment lawyer and they recommended Shawna Meyer. After consulting with her, I hired Shawna to represent me, and I'm very pleased that I did! Her professional legal representation was worth its weight in gold! She provided me with sound, legal ad...vice and guidance, which led to the case being awarded in my favor on an appeal. I learned a lot from her and will gladly refer my family and friends to her. I highly recommend her! Thank you, Shawna!

Excellent Service

My wife and i don't have a lot of experience lawyers, but, unfortunately, like lots of people we have had to employ legal services a few times. Shawn Meyer provided us with the best service would could have expected. Shawna was always timely with emails and phone calls and most importantly, she s...howed a genuine interest in our case. Also, since our case crossed state lines she facilitated that transition to anotuer time going above and beyond in ensuring that transition went smoothly. My wife and I highly recommend Shawna and will take time here to thank her again. Thanks, The Wortmans

Rating:  5.9 (Average)

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2024.

Reprimand issued in OR, 2024

updated on 03/21/2024

This means the lawyer did something wrong but the bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
