Shira did a great job in all stages. From explaining the situation, negotiations and final agreements. Her advise was well planned and was in my best interest.

I hired Shaw Law Group working with Bridgett and her partner to gain legal advisement on educational law issues, and I had a similar experience as another person who wrote a review. I spent $400 on tasks I could have completed on my own or had already done on my own. They detailed what they did for the $400 I paid for services, which gave me a few new pieces of information but overall very little that I wouldn't have already discovered on my own. It was only my second time ever needing legal advisement, and it subpar, where I've had much more luck with free legal advisement services and greater care/customer service. It seemed that they lacked the confidence to direct a case or advisement successfully and didn't really want to be involved, but of course, they could accept money. I needed sound navigation advisement, which was not given, only that I was dealing with "good ole boy, good ole girl" education issues. That's not what you pay legal advisement for, especially in a place where it is important to navigate culture and legalities. I received a parking ticket while on a visit to one of their locations, which they paid, likely because they probably already sensed my disappointment in their services. I was appreciative, but it just seemed to reiterate the wasted time and money aspect. I was in email conversations back and forth on topics, but would be pushed off because I had reached a limit to what they could do with what I paid for services. I believe the tasks completed would have been worth no more than $100-200 of their time at best. I would not recommend these lawyers as they seem to lack confidence and sound legal advisement for important situations, especially in areas where you are spending a considerable amount of money on education services where you need answers. Like in a previous review, I'm sharing my experience to help prevent others from spending money on services you don't receive for the money you pay. With a few minutes on the phone in correct advisement, I could have done what they did for me myself. Disappointing.

Shira Stefanik is amazingly helpful, super cooperative, caring and a friendly lawyer anyone can wish to hire. I hired her for my hit and run case. Being a new driver, I was extremely nervous when I got charged with a 'hit and run' . I am lucky that I could hire her. She kept me updated all the time about the status of my case. She handled my case so well and she finally could get it to be dismissed. Everyone gets in trouble every once in a while. And when it comes to figure out the ways getting out of it, you need someone like Shira Stefanik. I highly recommend to anyone to hire her if you are in trouble. She will get you out of it.

Bridget was hired as a consulting attorney to determine the best school for my children. She took 9 months to basically do a phone interview with a handful of people, cost me over $3000 to do so , then came out with an opinion anyone could have made reading a parent magazine. My children are both special needs and I really was counting on Bridget to make a well informed, insightful, thorough decision. I am a teacher by profession so when I read her report I was devastated. She did not choose the school I felt and still feel was appropriate for my kids but I could have lived with that if she had really shown she had worked hard to come to her decision. We all really want to have faith in our legal system and rely on people like Bridget to take our cases seriously. When I take my kids to the doctor, have my car fixed, or even send them to school everyday, I trust they are with the best, most professional, hard worhing expert in that field. I am spending time writing this review because I'm hoping to prevent another parent and/or person from this experience. There are so many other attorneys out there who really do care and really will work hard to guide and council.

I was pulled over for a minor traffic violation in the greater Seattle area. Officers questioned my sobriety and I declined field sobriety tests and a breathalyzer. I was arrested and the police obtained a warrant to draw blood. The results were not in my favor. I was charged with DUI and Reckless Endangerment. The prosecutor was seeking a guilty plea and several days in jail even though I had no prior record or criminal history. I hired Shira. Shira was extremely professional and honest about all matters regarding my case. She clearly explained policy, procedure, and strategy at every step along the way. When I had any questions about my case she responded promptly and answered my questions thoroughly above and beyond my expectation. I knew I was in good hands. Shira managed to get the Reckless Endangerment charge dismissed and reduce the DUI charge to Reckless Driving with no jail time. I highly recommend Shira Stefanik to anyone seeking a criminal defense attorney.

I am not sure how I would have gotten through this rough time without Shira. Not only did she listen, but she also cared. Shira is top notch, her wonderful communication skills and positive outlook made my experience as stress-free as possible. Thank you so much for your support, hard work and compassion on my case. I truly believe the positive outcome was due to Shira’s defense. If you need an OUTSTANDING DUI Defense Attorney, I strongly suggest Shira Stefanik.
