Client Review

Shannan is a superior outside counsel. She works extremely hard, is thorough and detail oriented and can be counted on to provide comprehensive legal analysis and first rate contract drafting.

Posted by Puneet | May 29, 2008

Superior Intellect, Highest Level of Integrity, and Tremendous Business Acumen

I cannot speak highly enough about Shannan. She has been an invaluable advisor and resource to our New Business Development (NBD) team at T-Mobile. She deftly straddles both the legal and business arenas with the utmost of ease and has built up tremendous domain expertise across consumer Internet d...eals, content deals, and more. Her negotiating skills are second to none and in all candor she truly has become a member of our team as opposed to our outside counsel. On multiple occasions she has generated unique solutions to address problems arising out of the most complex of issues including privacy, exclusivity, and more. I recommend Shannan without any hesitation.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
