Local, knowledgeable, result-oriented, effective

We had a legal matter with a local school and from previous reviews Bridget seemed to be the person to go to. We were not disappointed and from the first conversation on she had realistic answers for us about what would or would not work for our case, what we could reasonably ask for and how to best ...go about it. She also kept expectations realistic and prepared us for the possible ways this could play out, from best case scenario to a more lengthy process. While a little tucked away and up a flight of stairs through the back her office was otherwise easy to find. Her staff, specifically Linda, are fantastic. If there if there is anything that could have been better than it is maybe the time it took to get the initial letter out, but I strongly believe this is due to her being thought after and busy. For very good reasons. We are very happy with Bridget's representation for us.

Expert legal work and tremendous support for our family

I sincerely can't say enough for how much we appreciate the work of Ms. Shaw on behalf our son and our family. She helped us through an extremely stressful time with our son's school. We felt she advocated for him as if he was her own son. She was so sharp and very accessible/flexible when it came to... meeting times and email correspondence. We highly recommend her for educational and civil rights issues.

Excellent representation the gets results

Bridget and the team at Shaw Law Group did an outstanding job of representing my family for our son's complex IEP. She quickly became familiar with our son's medical, therapeutic and schooling history. She took the time to understand our perspectives and what would be best for our son. And she rep...resented us (both in communications and in meetings) in a way that ensured the best outcome for our son. I couldn't be happier with results. Thank you Bridget and team!

good experience with school appeal

We hired Bridget to help us in appeal with the school district over the unreasonable disciplinary action imposed by the school's athletic director. We had never challenged the system before so it was very helpful to have guidance and legal representation. We ended up going through two levels of app...eals before eventually winning our case. Bridget was professional and knowledgable in navigating our best options.

Great Outcome for Residency Denial

My child was denied residency by the University of Washington, so I hired Bridget to bring the case to the administrative court. She was great to work with and was willing to let me help out to reduce legal fees. The best news of all: WE WON!
