Excellent rating for Shannon

Last year (2008) Shannon helped us with a difficult juvenile case. She was very professional; knowledgeable and personable. She consistently guided us towards the best strategic decisions. In addition to being very pleased with the way she handled the case, most importantly she was successful in b...ringing about the best possible solution. Her compassionate attitude for the personal difficulties involved in this case was particularly appreciated. I am very grateful for her services and highly recommend her.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Shannon is experienced, efficient and very effective. She is one of the few attorneys I refer cases to, as I want to make sure those clients receive the best defense possible.You would do well hiring Shannon as your attorney."

Criminal defense lawyer | Apr 09

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have worked with Shannon, and I can personally attest to her passion, commitment and drive. As a former prosecutor, she has an advantage over many criminal defense attorneys because she has 100s of trials under her belt, and the knowledge of working for "the other side." This is very important because she can anticipate how the prosecution will react and think. Most importantly, Shannon will fight for her clients and give all she has for her clients. I have seen Shannon, case after case, fight until the case is properly resolved. I have, and WILL CONTINUE TO, recommend clients faced with criminal charges to Shannon Draughon."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
