Handled my case like a champ.

T.C. Tanski was terrific! The moment he stepped in and took over my harassment case, it was such a relief. He was extremely competent, thorough and in control. He walked us through the process step by step. Also, he and his team did a phenomenal job of keeping us informed on our case status. Tha...nks T.C. for everything!

Professionalism Defined

I would highly recommend Attorney Tanski as representation in appellate matters. I have experienced his legal expertise during sentencing and the appeal process. Although one outcome was more favorable than the other, I am still very satisfied with the performance of Attorney Tanski and the McShane... Firm. Attorney Tanski went above and beyond to keep myself and my family updated with information and comfortable with decisions made from day one until completion of the case. Thank you
