I would not recommend her to anyone. When I called to schedule a consultation regarding a divorce, she refused to assist me, laughed, and abruptly ended the call while still laughing. This situation is already highly stressful, as it involves children and the sale of a home. My brother is currently using her services, and has not had any positive results from her either. Her snotty demeanor is unprofessional for someone who is supposed to be in the community to assist, and help make the transitions in life a little more manageable.

Shawnah did a brilliant job for us. It was an ugly few months, and Shawnah was prepared for several ugly court appearances. She is calm, patient, intelligent and reads situations accurately. And she is such a nice person. She fought multiple times for us, and she got justice for everyone. I highly recommend Shawnah and her team. Her assistant/secretary did a wonderful job keeping us calm in a stressful situation.

Did majority of research myself. Did not present to court. Blamed on judge. Did not file appropriate legal proceedings.

My experience with Strongpoint Law was not good. And I gave opportunity for that to be fixed. Shawnah Bennett represented me in family court, she refused to actually look into answering specific legal questions and instead just told me that a family law judge could do anything he wants. In the end (after years of her not answering the repeated specific questions I placed in front of her) I researched the statute myself and had to force her to read it in front of me (this was after months of her not responding when I sent her the statute by email, and again, that was after years of asking her to look into it herself). Shawnah ultimately agreed that the Judge was violating statutory law. At that point, her refusal to do her job had created a huge mess, she then wanted nothing more than to distance herself from the case rather than fix her mistakes as she was asked to. I specifically asked her to remedy her mistakes, and instead she withdrew from the case. Adding insult to injury, after I had paid her many thousands of dollars while getting bad advice because she did not take the time to actually read the statute, Shawnah Bennett had the nerve to send me a bill from that meeting. Now I am faced with a huge uphill battle that should have been stopped before it got started. It’s not a matter of her being surprised in a court of law, Shawnah Bennett refused to address specific questions (no matter how many times I asked) which left both her and I unprepared in the courtroom and all other dealings in the process. Looking back, it seems that the judge and other lawyers were already aware that she would put up no fight, no matter what they did. I can only speak to my experience, but I would caution against using Shawnah Bennett in any instance where a lawyer would be required to fight for the rights of a client. Shawnah Bennett refused at all turns to put up any sort of real fight on my behalf (even after being shown that the law clearly supported the stance).
