This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Changed my life

I was in a battle with the ATF. My first lawyer couldn't handle my case and referred me to Shaun. She was amazing. I was so stressed and scared facing federal time, she was confident and sure. We won the case and for some reason the FBI was pissed we won the case and came after me again, she beat the...m also!!! My ordeal was expunged and I've never been in trouble again. Shaun changed my life forever. I owe her my life. I can't say enough positive about her. She was my Guardian angel and lucky charming one. Thanks for reading and hope this helps.

My savior!

To all those seeking legal representation in a criminal case, look no further than Shaun McCrea. I hired Shaun to represent me in a case in which the odds were stacked against me; I had many priors and had a previously failed diversion for the very charge I was facing. Through persistence and negotia...ting prowess, she secured a full dismissal of both of my charges. The results of my case alone do not do Shaun justice. She was incredible kind and supportive throughout the months leading up to the dismissal. There were times when things went south and she was always honest with me and continued fighting for a favorable outcome. She answered all my calls and walked me through everything that was happening. Shaun truly went above and beyond, all for a flat rate. Two thumbs way up. I am only posting this anonymously because I do not want to be identified in this case.

She saved my life

Shaun was incredible. She was not only extremely knowledgable about the law and the inner workings of the justice " machine " , but she truly cared about me both as a client and as a fellow human being facing a lengthy prison sentence and scared out of his mind. She kept me informed and was commu...nicative during the entire lengthy process of her dealing with the FBI and DEA culminating in a decision by the prosecutors to not file charges and to dismiss me as a person of interest and close the case. I am 100% convinced that if i had hired any other attorney i would currently be serving time in a federal prison. To sum it up , she cares , she is brilliant , and she is the best poker player in the legal system today. I would not hesitate to retain her services again or to recommend her to my friends and relatives.

A Lawyer you can trust

Shaun is an amazing person and a skillful lawyer. She is an advocate for her clients and a professional in every aspect of her work ethic. She is courteous and well spoken, not too mention of high moral value. She is just a good person, a caring, compassionate and power woman, one I feel inspires oth...ers around her. Ms. McCrea fought long and tirelessly to have me exonerated. I will always be grateful for her expertise, as well as her dedication. Thank you Shaun for saving my life.
