Edward F Shea JR

I had the privilege of working with Ed and his team over the last 2 years, and I cannot speak highly enough of their professionalism, dedication, and integrity. From the very beginning, Ed provided exceptional representation and demonstrated a clear commitment to achieving the best possible outcome ...in my case. What I appreciated most was Ed’s honesty and straightforward approach. Before each hearing or court appearance, he took the time to explain every possible outcome, ensuring I understood exactly what to expect. He isn’t the type of attorney who tells you what you want to hear, he tells you the truth, prepares you for all scenarios, and guides you with confidence and care. He makes you aware of risks you take going to court and always keeps you mindful of the what ifs. Ed is also very well respected in the courts and it shows. He doesn’t get pushed around, knows the RCWs inside and out, and presents with confidence and precision. When it’s his turn to speak, his arguments are strong, well-prepared, and persuasive. You can tell he truly cares about his clients and fights for what’s right. Especially when it comes to achieving what’s best for your children. His assistant, Amanda, was equally incredible. She was attentive, responsive, and always kept me informed. If Ed was in trial or mediation, she made sure I knew the reason for any delay and that my concerns were still being addressed. Their communication and teamwork made an otherwise stressful process so much easier to navigate. There were several times I reached out with questions on weekends or after hours and still received timely responses, which speaks volumes about their dedication. I can’t say enough good things about this firm. They are truly an excellent team, and I would recommend them to anyone in Benton County needing knowledgeable, honest, and effective legal representation. Worth every single penny you will spend.

I highly recommend Ed and his fantastic team. I originally hired Ed about 15 years ago and have had to rehire him a few times since. I strongly suggest everyone to contact him when they have an unfortunate turn in events. He was prepared, on time, empathetic, courteous and even made an effort to giv...e me a call and check on me after the court case was over just to see how things were going. Mr. Shea and his staff are hands down the best.

I do not even know where to start on how fortunate I was to have Ed and Spencer on my side for a brutal divorce proceeding. I will summarize how awesome Ed and his team were, but I really want to highlight his ability to be caring and to listen throughout the two year battle. This was an emotionally ...draining and a hard two year fight. Ed was extremely honest with me and didn’t play games wasting time. I was always kept informed and knew my options. Ed was relentless and knew the law which ultimately lead to us winning at trial. From the day he took my case I put full trust into him and I feel this was such a success because of that. He knows the law and is phenomenal at trial in front of a judge! Ed was very thorough and was always very forthcoming on what he needed from me. I had to trust him though the process and I’m so glad I did. My ex was a complete liar and fabricated so many lies throughout the two years, there were multiple contempts and hearings while we waited for trial. Ed was always on his A game and was able to shut down the other side without issues. Ultimately, Ed and his team were always very well prepared and he knew my case inside and out. He was able to come out on top of the divorce proceedings and got more than I ever thought possible from trial. This was all due to his due diligence in the case. Do not hesitate hiring him!!

It’s unfortunate I ever had to use a lawyer. But I feel very blessed to have had Ed as mine. You won’t get better. Not only is he smart and a beast in court, but he will tell you like it is, not just what you want to hear. He responds quickly and gets things done quickly. I very much appreciated him ...through this awful process.

I interviewed a few attorney's and Ed quickly became the clear choice. Let me just say it was the BEST decision I ever made. If you want a lawyer that will get it done, he's your man. He has an uncanny ability to know when to push and know when to give. He has a great reputation not only with pre...vious clients, but with local attorney's as well. He got my tough case mediated that could have gone south at any moment and resolved it in just over 100 days from start to finish. I know several people who have spent years resolving simpler cases than mine. His team is top notch and makes adjustments as necessary while remaining empathetic to my situation. He and his team operate at the top of their game to not only minimize costs, but give you one less thing to worry about during such a stressful time. Ed is a stud! You won't regret the decision to hire him!!
