Shelby Thomas

We had no idea what to expect when our 17 year-old was arrested for trespassing. One phone call with Shelby helped us understand the process and gave us peace of mind. We hired Shelby to help us navigate the juvenile judicial system, but she also came alongside us and our child. Not only did she h...elp us legally, but she helped us communicate with our child in a way that we would not have been able to do on our own. We are impressed with how well Shelby worked and communicated with our teen!

We hired Shelby Thomas to represent our daughter for criminal charges that were pronounced against her. Shelby has been very communicative all along the process. She has also been available to answer our questions and concerns through email, phone, and in person. She is very knowledgeable in the area... of defense that concerns us. She has also had recommendations of lawyers that are experts in other areas of the law that concern us. To date we have been and are very happy with her representation of our daughter. We are also grateful because we believe that at times she has gone above and beyond what has been expected of her. Thank you, Shelby!

I'm from Klamath Falls and the justice system down here has been going through some very difficult times and big changes. After I got arrested I was appointed Phil Studenberg. Wouldn't return calls. His secretary forgot to tell me about a court date that only his team was notified about. In Klamath F...alls all the lawyers are friends and hang out with the district attorneys. It's a small town and they're all in the same circle. If one person thinks you're guilty it doesn't matter what you say or do they treat you like a number. It's guilty until proven innocent if you're not apart of the circle. At that point I realized I needed an expert in the area of sex crimes as they were rape accusations. I reached out to people from Medford, Eugene, Salem, Portland, San Francisco, Sacramento and Bend. Contacted around 30 attorneys. It didn't matter about money all of them except Shelby said they wouldn't take the case due to any excuse they could come up with. Finally after 2 other attorneys in Salem and Portland recommended her I called. What a relief it was when I finally got to talk to someone who actually listened and cared what my wife and I said. Shelby answered the phone when I called or returned my call almost always in the same day. She was extremely transparent. If she heard anything about the case she would immediately call me about the matter. When we had court she was extremely professional and like by the judge, witch in any case is a bonus. We didn't end up going to trial. But she was willing to drive down here for court dates and extensions if I would have felt more comfortable. If you are in the same situation I was in then you need to immediately call Shelby. The entire team at Ward & Grove are amazing. Even with the charges I was facing they treated me with the utmost respect.

I went searching for legal counsel regarding a simple DUII case. After a few tries to other offices, Shelby's office was the first to pick up - and boy, am I glad they did! She was able to get me in for a consultation the next day and from the moment stepping in her office a lot of the weight from my... case was already lifted off of my shoulders. She explained every step of the process in careful detail, and perfectly executed every step throughout the case. In choosing Shelby, be prepared to be met with professionalism, impartiality, and charisma.
