After a long search I found the BEST lawyer who assisted me with the utmost professionalism to buy land. Had I not worked with him I don't think it would have gone as smoothly. I needed someone to truly advocate for me and he did and now I'm living my best life with my puppy on 3.4 Acres of paradise.

I’m a real estate manager in Jamestown and have dealt with Shane on many eviction cases. He does seem to really care about his clients and takes the time to know his case before going into court. Very reasonable prices. Also his team is right on top of things to help you meet deadlines, and get everything filled out correctly. He’s worth checking out, you won’t be sorry.

He saved my house and cars. In fact, one of the cars were repossessed and he got it back for me. He also removed some judgments that were against my house somehow. On the rest of my bills, I am paying pennies on the dollar.
