Highly Recommend

I went to Shawn after having worked with another attorney who just didn't have the horsepower to get the job done. Both Shawn and Kimberly proved themselves to be capable, professional, and on the ball. He is direct and to the point but don't be turned off by that, he has your best interest in mind. ...I am grateful for what he's done. He was recommended to me by another former client of his who recommended him and I recommend Shawn whenever I can.

My only regret is not finding him much sooner.

If you are looking for a lawyer that is very knowledgeable, confident, honest and pays attention to your wants and needs, then Shawn Hunter is the guy to hire. I worked with three different lawyers throughout my divorce and none of them can compare to his work ethic and performance. I am very pleased... with the outcome of his work and will definitely recommend him to anyone seeking the services he offers. My only regret is not finding him much sooner.

He will get the job done!!

I am so glad that Mr Hunter was recommended to me for my divorce and child custody case. Mine was a contested case and the fireworks were flying, whilst Mr Hunter may seem unmoved and blunt in regards to aspects of the case believe me this does not mean he is uncaring or cold. He is professional and ...that is what is needed in such emotional and highly stressful situations. Take his advice on board and act immediately as his experience has taught him well to predict where the next drama will come from and will warn you to protect yourself from these possible situations. His assistant Kimberley is definitely one of his biggest assets and is very empathetic and knowledgable herself as well as fully equipped to calm things down and get the job done. My case, whilst long and drawn out was worth the end result. Thanks Shawn

An outstanding attorney

Shawn is and outstanding attorney. He has every quality you would want in a lawyer. He has an excellent knowledge of family law. He along with his legal secretary Kimberly run an extremely organize and professional law practice. He is an excellent legal stagiest, exploring all possible courses of act...ion that could be taken. I have relied on his judgment many times always resulting in the best possible outcome. I am amazed at his memory. He handled my divorce 3 years ago, then a year and a half later my ex-wife filed for a modification. Shawn ability to retain details from the divorce was very impressive. I would highly recommend Shawn to anyone needing a family practice attorney.

Highly Recommended

Mr. Hunter and his assistant, Kimberly, are a highly recommended law firm. You can entrust Mr. Hunter to be honest, professional, ethical and never move forward without consulting in his client first. As a client, Mr. Hunter guided me through an excruciating one year Divorce, at no point in time did ...I ever second guess Mr. Hunter having my or my seven month old daughters best interest at hand, at all times. I have referred family and friends who have also referred their family friends, who can share only positive reviews on Mr. Hunter's law firm. Of course, no one can determine the outcome of your situation, however, rest assured Mr. Hunter will work hard and do his absolute best due diligence to guide you through your situation for the best outcome possible.
