Shelly Kay Perkins

After 23 years of marriage this was my first and only divorce and need for an attorney. From my first consultation Shelly gave me very good advice about my rights to marital assests and posessions. There were times the unknown would drive me to the brink of insanity, and Shelly would calm me down and... tell me what to expect. At times just when I thought I couldnt take anymore harrassment and slander from the other attorney she would jump in with an email to stop them and I would feel instant relief. She is sooo good. I googled what to look for in a good divorce attorney and what to expect from one and she fit the bill from beginning to end. Shelly worked towards mediation and and out of court settlement when that was not recieved by the other side, she prepared her witnesses and I feel presented present such a strong well put together case. She was so much more professional than the first attorney and just better prepared and represented me way better than the second attorney hired by th other side. After the judges award, Shelly counciled me in making a deal to change some of the judges rulings to better serve me in the long run. I have reccomended her to several friends and family member.

Divorce is never easy. Shelly's guidance was superb! She represented me late in my divorce proceeding after my attempt at pro se representation failed in the 11th hour.Shelly was referred to me by two sisters who share a law practice in Oregon City (Thank You!!) Her hours / minutes billed are conser...vative and beyond reproach (beware the 15 minute type of attorney!) It's a small world, I have run into 3 or 4 people who know Shelly,and share my opinion, all have a high opinion of her,both professionally and personally. I did my best to represent myself with Honesty Honor and Integrity.Shelly continued to represent me in that fashion,even though opposing council exhibited the traits I detest most in a lawyer.(LYING SCUMBAG!) S. Kelly Shelly is sharp! I was lucky to have been represented by her.I will highly recommend her services if the opportunity presents itself. Shelly Thank You!!! My best Regards Jim M.

Professional, listens,asks questions and forms a case plan. As would all lawyers, she asks for supporting documents to back the case. For my county , Shelly knew who the different judges were and what type of judges they were, which helped present the case. In court she was firm and kept the process... flowing, keeping derogatory remarks from the other side to a minumum. We were in court for a purpose, not to bash each other, and she seen to keeping us moving forward. When I first presented my case to Shelly Perkins, my main concern was my ability to pay for her services. We sat and talked about everything and came to an agreement that both, would protect her payment and at the same time I could manage. I had a previous lawyer that I felt he wasn't doing his job and didn't feel like he would fight for me. From the first time I met Shelly, I felt comfortable and I did see her fight for me and presented my case very well. We are still working on the final part of this process and overall, I'm very happy in the results. I wanted things to be fair and for the most part it has turned out that way. It would be hard to get much better. Great Job Thanks Shelly
