She Was Very Informative
She responded quickly and was informative and to the point with no run around. She let me know off the bat that she was not taking any new cases. I respected that she did not waste any time.

Very Helpful!
Although Shauna did not handle law in the area of my issue, she, very kindly, gave me alternatives. I like her, I would have hired her.

Shauna is on top of things
It's rare to work with an attorney who is so on top of things. Shauna listens to your needs, is proactive in fulfilling your needs, and also researches all of the various points of law that may give you grief based on your initial request.

Excellent
Shauna Curphey was extremely helpful with my severance contract. She gathered all of the information from me and let me know she would follow up. She contacted me in a couple of days and gave me additional information to help me negotiate the contract.

Shauna Curphey Review
Shauna is probably the most organized lawyer that I have ever worked with which is a rarity in the legal profession. You can always count on her to stay on top of your case as though it was the only one she was working on. A real pleasure to work with
Shauna M Curphey's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have worked with Shauna on several occasions and have admired her work on many others. Her teamwork skills are excellent. I have repeatedly been impressed by her legal research and writing. She is very responsible, thorough, creative, and diligent."
"Shauna is a diligent and zealous advocate for her clients, and has amazing customer service skills. I've had the good fortune to connect with her personally thanks to a longtime friendship with her husband, but my admiration of her skills as a lawyer stem from our conversations and interactions in professional settings. It's rare to find litigators who understand the strategic aspects of trial practice, but also know the emotional and psychological impact of litigation on all the parties involved. Shauna's response is never "yes, let's sue!" - instead, she starts in problem-solving mode and works tirelessly to get to the heart of the dispute before massive amounts of time, energy, and money have been spent by both sides."
"Shauna is passionate and dedicated to her clients. I would refer client's to her without hesitation."
"I wholeheartedly endorse this Shauna Curphey to handle any litigation. She is totally thorough in learning the facts and governing law and masterfully and persuasively applying them for an effective outcome."
"Shauna is an excellent lawyer and a zealous advocate for her clients and their causes. She is thorough in her legal analysis and research and is a great writer. I refer clients to her without hesitation and with total confidence."
