Great, honest, and reliable lawyer!

TLDR: HIRE SHANE. Shane Cridlebaugh is A-MAZING! First off, I called around to many different lawyers and Shane stood out because he instantly told me that I was paying my spouse BAH (military housing allowance/spousal support) when I didn’t have to since we had a prenuptial agreement. No other l...awyers had pointed this out. Even the military lawyers had not noticed this. He was the first one to notice during the free consultation. He was right! I took my agreement to my chain of command and military lawyers and they confirmed that I didn’t have to pay based on the prenuptial agreement. Every other lawyer I called around to told me I would have to continue paying my spouse BAH until the divorce was final. Shane was also the only lawyer that was ready to start making moves. During our phone consultation he was already telling me the next steps that he would take. He’s an aggressive lawyer which is what you want. I sincerely felt like he was fighting for me. Shane moves quick. The other side would take days or weeks to respond whereas Shane would always respond promptly. You will want that because you want the divorce to finish quickly! I didn’t have to communicate with the other side at all which was one of my requests. Shane is very honest about money. When the other party agreed to a settlement, Shane was upfront and informed me that he had not used all of the initial retainer fee and would pay the other party from the remaining retainer fee I had already paid. Shane could have easily charged me extra and claimed he had already worked the equivalent of the entire retainer fee. Shane was always available by email even on holidays and weekends. In fact, my final papers were prepared and signed on New Year’s Eve because he was working! It’s a long review because Shane deserves it. He seriously made my divorce so easy. You won’t be disappointed when you hire him.

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.
