Charlie was nothing short of a blessing in a time when I felt like my world was falling apart. Had it not been for his representation I'm not sure where I would be, do to his many years of experience and knowledge he was able to resolve all disagreements in a timely manner. He had the expertise and knowledge to handle any and all *issues* that arose. I highly recommend him, and thank him for all of his time, energy and effort he put into my divorce

I retained Mr. Shane to represent me to amend the parenting plan with my daughter's mother. I could go into all the piddly details but instead I will tell you that Mr. Shane is very good at what he does! He replies promptly to email, he returns phone calls. Yes, these are things that I would expect from an attorney but he definitely follows through. He explains why some things should be done a certain way. If you have an idea about something but he doesn't think it will help or improve your case, he doesn't just say no. Instead, he takes the time to explain why and ultimately, it's the clients' decision. We were able to get the parenting plan updated to satisfy what is in the best interest of my daughter. I would also comment that Jazmyn, Mr. Shane's paralegal, is excellent too. She took all of my calls and was able to put my mind at ease, which was often.

From intake to trial, Charlie was patient, calm, and understanding with me. He beat the state's statistics against fathers with apparent ease, resulting in full custody of my two young daughters. Our family has immeasurably improved thanks to Charlie!

Charlie and his team has been nothing less than exceptional! Since the first time I spoke with him about my case he has taken an approach of calm, positive, and supportive to guide me every step of the way. Charlie and his team have kept open lines of communication while trying to optimize my best interest through a difficult time. The guidance, experience, and knowledge on how to approach and execute things is amazing! Charlie always had my best interest and would often suggest things to help me and the situation in coming to a win/win scenario. I couldn’t have asked for a better team to support me. Moving forward, I plan to keep Charlie on speed dial, not only for anything in the future, but recommending him to everyone. I can’t say enough positive things and how much gratitude I have for Charlie. My case would have not ended so favorably had he not been my lawyer.

I am grateful for Charlie’s expertise and professionalism. He was able to clearly navigate my case without getting distracted by the curve balls that were sent out way. He focused on the main issues and upheld the truth in court. I spent years representing myself pro se battling my ex in court over frivolous issues and false accusations. It was exhausting! Until I teamed up with Charlie I wasn’t sure I was even going to see an end to the court process. Charlie was able to sort through my mountainous pile of court paperwork, find what was of utmost importance, and focus on that in a timely manner. The outcome of my Child Support modification case turned out far better than I had expected and I have Charlie to thank for that. He patiently helped me through countless revisions and numerous court delays. I’m finally in a place where I feel like my ex will no longer use the legal system to abuse me and he now knows the consequences for doing so. I highly recommend Charlie for anyone struggling through a high conflict divorce.

Contacted Charlie, he provided the info I needed for court in just the first interview session. Was very understanding of my situation and how to go about going through the whole process in general. Presenting my case in wording that i couldnt have done with my nerves verbally and on paper, it helped me out in the court. I'm relieved, it was alot less stressful than doing it by myself and it was very helpful in general to hire Charlie.

Charlie Shane was a beacon of hope to my family at a time when our options appeared limited and the likelihood of resolution seemed impossible. Not only was he able to modify child support from a different county and over a decade old document but also represent me as a single parent supporting my family as a sole proprietor in business. He is calm and friendly. He was able to come to bat for myself and those I care about most. My children and I are grateful for his service and I hereby recommend Mr. Shane without reservation.

Charlie helped me finalize a divorce that was dragging out for two years. He was efficient, respectful, extremely knowledgeable, patient, and kind. He got the divorce finalized very quickly. I would recommend him to anyone needing results.

Charlie facilitated getting me all the documents, advice and connecting me with other professionals outside of his scope.

I was intending on representing myself for trial in a high conflict child custody matter. However, upon getting a Family Court Services report that was potentially going to have a substantial negative impact for my case. I knew them that I needed an attorney. So a week prior to the trial I consulted with Charlie and let him know what was going on via zoom. We talked about the specifics and Charlie told me what the courts do and don't want to hear on my behalf. Furthermore, to allow the courts to find out for themselves that the opposing party was making comments, and accusations in bad faith to support there own false narrative. When the trial date came we had the option to get a continuance or do the trial. With only a week of preparation for a very high conflict litigation we decided to go through with the trial. Charlie knew the right questions to ask my witnesses, myself, FCS and the opposing party. The family court services report was not even a factor, and that was my biggest worry! Ultimately the Judge granted that I have my daughter every Thursday afternoon to Sunday evening. He also got a reduction in my child support payments. I give Charlie 5 stars and I highly recommend hiring him for any of your family law matters. He is professional and like a friend all at the same time.

Charlie supported me wholeheartedly from day one of retaining him for my divorce. He is a great listener, offering helpful and applicable advice and guidance. Charlie is very well educated and thoroughly knowledgeable in his field. Charlie pushed to make sure I was heard and I got the results I wanted! He fought for me until the very end!! Charlie is very personable and easy to work with. He made me feel valued every step of the way. Charlie is who you want working for you in any and every situation! Without a doubt, if legal advice or support is needed, I will always call Charlie Shane.

Charlie is great to work with. He works with you like a good friend who is also a professional lawyer. He has plenty of tools to get the result that works in your favor. I hired Charlie for a divorce case in King County. Highly recommended!
