As an out of state driver that was ticketed in Virginia, I was concerned that I would not be able to keep the ticket off my record. I hired Kristen Shannon by phone and we had several conversations about the importance of keeping the ticket off my record. Kristen suggested that I provide a clean driving abstract, do an online defensive driving school and let her do the rest. I'm happy to report that Kristen was able to have my speeding ticket dismissed with no further cost, and no damage to my driving record. Thank you, and although I hope to not need your services for a traffic violation, if I ever do, I am sure to call!!

I am an extremely satisfied Commercial Driver of 20 years!!! Attorney Shannon's knowledge of the charge I was ticketed with and the assurance that this would not follow me into my future, put my mind at ease. Every question concerning my case was answered before my court date. She and her staff were personable and very professional. I live in the Richmond area of Virginia, and had to call at least 7 attorneys in the Va Beach Area and Attorney Shannon was the best choice !!! I recommend her highly to professional drivers and other drivers as well !!!

For many months the fear of losing primary custody of my step-son weighed heavily on my heart. I trusted in God that the Judge's decision would be for the best interest of my son. However, I battled the fear that most parents would experience in this type of situation. Ms. Shannon calmed those fears every time we spoke to her about this situation. She was always empathetic, honest, professional, as well as a great listener. She treated us like family and this is more than I could've asked for. We are indebted to her for her efforts and her generosity. I would recommend her to anyone seeking a family lawyer who sincerely cares about their clients.

Mrs. Shannon is an incredible attorney. She is so thorough and picked up on many things that I would not have even imagined to matter in our family case. I have been traumatized by previous court experiences and unjust rulings with my X-husband so when I found out that he was going to try and get primary custody of our son, all of those anxieties came back. Mrs. Shannon, being a family person herself, listened carefully to all of my concerns and actually made the court experience incredibly peaceful (I never thought that was possible). The judge even said that it was the most "memorable" court experiences because of how wonderful everything was. She also did an excellent job keeping us up to date and informing us of what was going on in a way that we could understand (legal terminology is another language for me). She took in each of my anxieties and fears with an open ear and even prayed with us when asked to do so. I love her heart! If we have any future legal matters (especially in the family area) we would be sure to ask her to represent us again, and so should you!!! You will not go wrong with such an amazing attorney!!! Her attention to details is what helped in winning our case. I am happy to say that my son will be staying at home with me!

Kristen was very knowledgeable about the laws of my matter. She clearly explained my rights and was very helpful in directing me in the next steps of my journey. She is extremely professional and still very compassionate. I felt confident going to court knowing she was handling my case.

During the intial visit and each time I met with Ms Shannon, she appeared to be somewhat timid> At one point I remembered thinking that I needed an attorney with a little more "umph". Ahh...hhh was I surprised! This is a smart attorney. She is thorough and tough when she needs to be. Not only diid I see a great deal of "umph" but when my case was done, I'm also sure the opposing attorney was thinking, "umph..umph...ummm" because she surprised him too!!! Attorney Shannon will work hard for you. But...what impressed me the most was her response to my telephone calls and many questions. Her receptionist (Anne) was on point as well. Although, I hated the fact that I needed an attorney, she make the process a little more bearable.

Kristen consultation gave came to fruition in the courtroom. Money well spent. She's a hard worker.

The only, but huge, issue I had with her services is that I found her to be extremely uncommunicative. Not being an attorney I had no idea what to expect, and she did next to nothing to prepare me for court. I was not told what would happen, how to prepare myself, what to know, what to do, what she needed from me, what anyone needed from me, etc. I felt the entire time that I was very low on the totem pole in terms of priority. After working with other attorneys since, I now know that this is not the norm. My entire case ended up being fought on evidence I had to proactively gather without being asked - because I became scared that she was not following through and guiding me properly. Had I not done that, I sincerely believe I would have lost in a big way. In court, you could tell she was bright, and sharp, and handled herself very well. In fact - I am utterly baffled at how much skill she appears to have, but how poorly she handled the case. At the end of the day the case went worse than expected, and I did everything possible to help myself - but my attorney could have done so much more. I'm not sure she even cares or knows how much those mistakes cost me. For the above reasons I couldn't honestly recommend her.

I’m not one to usually write reviews, but under these circumstances it seems appropriate. I hired ms Shannon to represent my sister on a motion to reconsider and at the beginning she seemed very sincere in her desire to help. Something had changed once she got paid and it seemed like i was working for her instead of her working for me. After all it must be a very strenuous process to write a letter under these current times we live in. My sister by no means is a bad person she suffers from addiction and nothing more then a possession charge. My father has been in and out of the hospital for the past 4 months and will soon pass without seeing his daughter again. I have lived in another state for years and get back to visit pretty regularly. However i cannot stay full time to help out. It took her three weeks to get the motion ready after i had given her information about the second part of my sister sentence which is a useless subcontracted state run reintroduction program. After waiting the 3 weeks and finally seeing the motion she wrote it wasn’t even close to the information i had given her. The state i was living in was wrong, my fathers ailments and the severity of them was incorrect. I had given up at that point and decided to accept things as they are. I am aware that most individuals usually have things going on in their lives which prevent them from being present, however i would not recommend her under any circumstances . She appears to Andy be in it for a buck and she is really not that good at it. Her assistant was very pretentious and you would think she is the one with the law degree.

Other issues withstanding, she did not show up to court! She scheduled two court cases at the same time and I sat in court waiting for my attorney to show up AND SHE NEVER DID!!!! Not worth taking the chance on.

As an out of state driver that was ticketed in Virginia, I was concerned that I would not be able to keep the ticket off my record. I hired Kristen Shannon by phone and we had several conversations about the importance of keeping the ticket off my record. Kristen suggested that I provide a clean driving abstract, do an online defensive driving school and let her do the rest. I'm happy to report that Kristen was able to have my speeding ticket dismissed with no further cost, and no damage to my driving record. Thank you, and although I hope to not need your services for a traffic violation, if I ever do, I am sure to call!!

I am an extremely satisfied Commercial Driver of 20 years!!! Attorney Shannon's knowledge of the charge I was ticketed with and the assurance that this would not follow me into my future, put my mind at ease. Every question concerning my case was answered before my court date. She and her staff were personable and very professional. I live in the Richmond area of Virginia, and had to call at least 7 attorneys in the Va Beach Area and Attorney Shannon was the best choice !!! I recommend her highly to professional drivers and other drivers as well !!!

For many months the fear of losing primary custody of my step-son weighed heavily on my heart. I trusted in God that the Judge's decision would be for the best interest of my son. However, I battled the fear that most parents would experience in this type of situation. Ms. Shannon calmed those fears every time we spoke to her about this situation. She was always empathetic, honest, professional, as well as a great listener. She treated us like family and this is more than I could've asked for. We are indebted to her for her efforts and her generosity. I would recommend her to anyone seeking a family lawyer who sincerely cares about their clients.

Mrs. Shannon is an incredible attorney. She is so thorough and picked up on many things that I would not have even imagined to matter in our family case. I have been traumatized by previous court experiences and unjust rulings with my X-husband so when I found out that he was going to try and get primary custody of our son, all of those anxieties came back. Mrs. Shannon, being a family person herself, listened carefully to all of my concerns and actually made the court experience incredibly peaceful (I never thought that was possible). The judge even said that it was the most "memorable" court experiences because of how wonderful everything was. She also did an excellent job keeping us up to date and informing us of what was going on in a way that we could understand (legal terminology is another language for me). She took in each of my anxieties and fears with an open ear and even prayed with us when asked to do so. I love her heart! If we have any future legal matters (especially in the family area) we would be sure to ask her to represent us again, and so should you!!! You will not go wrong with such an amazing attorney!!! Her attention to details is what helped in winning our case. I am happy to say that my son will be staying at home with me!

Kristen was very knowledgeable about the laws of my matter. She clearly explained my rights and was very helpful in directing me in the next steps of my journey. She is extremely professional and still very compassionate. I felt confident going to court knowing she was handling my case.

During the intial visit and each time I met with Ms Shannon, she appeared to be somewhat timid> At one point I remembered thinking that I needed an attorney with a little more "umph". Ahh...hhh was I surprised! This is a smart attorney. She is thorough and tough when she needs to be. Not only diid I see a great deal of "umph" but when my case was done, I'm also sure the opposing attorney was thinking, "umph..umph...ummm" because she surprised him too!!! Attorney Shannon will work hard for you. But...what impressed me the most was her response to my telephone calls and many questions. Her receptionist (Anne) was on point as well. Although, I hated the fact that I needed an attorney, she make the process a little more bearable.

Kristen consultation gave came to fruition in the courtroom. Money well spent. She's a hard worker.

The only, but huge, issue I had with her services is that I found her to be extremely uncommunicative. Not being an attorney I had no idea what to expect, and she did next to nothing to prepare me for court. I was not told what would happen, how to prepare myself, what to know, what to do, what she needed from me, what anyone needed from me, etc. I felt the entire time that I was very low on the totem pole in terms of priority. After working with other attorneys since, I now know that this is not the norm. My entire case ended up being fought on evidence I had to proactively gather without being asked - because I became scared that she was not following through and guiding me properly. Had I not done that, I sincerely believe I would have lost in a big way. In court, you could tell she was bright, and sharp, and handled herself very well. In fact - I am utterly baffled at how much skill she appears to have, but how poorly she handled the case. At the end of the day the case went worse than expected, and I did everything possible to help myself - but my attorney could have done so much more. I'm not sure she even cares or knows how much those mistakes cost me. For the above reasons I couldn't honestly recommend her.

I’m not one to usually write reviews, but under these circumstances it seems appropriate. I hired ms Shannon to represent my sister on a motion to reconsider and at the beginning she seemed very sincere in her desire to help. Something had changed once she got paid and it seemed like i was working for her instead of her working for me. After all it must be a very strenuous process to write a letter under these current times we live in. My sister by no means is a bad person she suffers from addiction and nothing more then a possession charge. My father has been in and out of the hospital for the past 4 months and will soon pass without seeing his daughter again. I have lived in another state for years and get back to visit pretty regularly. However i cannot stay full time to help out. It took her three weeks to get the motion ready after i had given her information about the second part of my sister sentence which is a useless subcontracted state run reintroduction program. After waiting the 3 weeks and finally seeing the motion she wrote it wasn’t even close to the information i had given her. The state i was living in was wrong, my fathers ailments and the severity of them was incorrect. I had given up at that point and decided to accept things as they are. I am aware that most individuals usually have things going on in their lives which prevent them from being present, however i would not recommend her under any circumstances . She appears to Andy be in it for a buck and she is really not that good at it. Her assistant was very pretentious and you would think she is the one with the law degree.

She appears to Andy be in it for a buck and she is really not that good at it. Her assistant was very pretentious and you would think she is the one with the law degree.

Other issues withstanding, she did not show up to court! She scheduled two court cases at the same time and I sat in court waiting for my attorney to show up AND SHE NEVER DID!!!! Not worth taking the chance on.

As an out of state driver that was ticketed in Virginia, I was concerned that I would not be able to keep the ticket off my record. I hired Kristen Shannon by phone and we had several conversations about the importance of keeping the ticket off my record. Kristen suggested that I provide a clean driving abstract, do an online defensive driving school and let her do the rest. I'm happy to report that Kristen was able to have my speeding ticket dismissed with no further cost, and no damage to my driving record. Thank you, and although I hope to not need your services for a traffic violation, if I ever do, I am sure to call!!

I am an extremely satisfied Commercial Driver of 20 years!!! Attorney Shannon's knowledge of the charge I was ticketed with and the assurance that this would not follow me into my future, put my mind at ease. Every question concerning my case was answered before my court date. She and her staff were personable and very professional. I live in the Richmond area of Virginia, and had to call at least 7 attorneys in the Va Beach Area and Attorney Shannon was the best choice !!! I recommend her highly to professional drivers and other drivers as well !!!

For many months the fear of losing primary custody of my step-son weighed heavily on my heart. I trusted in God that the Judge's decision would be for the best interest of my son. However, I battled the fear that most parents would experience in this type of situation. Ms. Shannon calmed those fears every time we spoke to her about this situation. She was always empathetic, honest, professional, as well as a great listener. She treated us like family and this is more than I could've asked for. We are indebted to her for her efforts and her generosity. I would recommend her to anyone seeking a family lawyer who sincerely cares about their clients.

Mrs. Shannon is an incredible attorney. She is so thorough and picked up on many things that I would not have even imagined to matter in our family case. I have been traumatized by previous court experiences and unjust rulings with my X-husband so when I found out that he was going to try and get primary custody of our son, all of those anxieties came back. Mrs. Shannon, being a family person herself, listened carefully to all of my concerns and actually made the court experience incredibly peaceful (I never thought that was possible). The judge even said that it was the most "memorable" court experiences because of how wonderful everything was. She also did an excellent job keeping us up to date and informing us of what was going on in a way that we could understand (legal terminology is another language for me). She took in each of my anxieties and fears with an open ear and even prayed with us when asked to do so. I love her heart! If we have any future legal matters (especially in the family area) we would be sure to ask her to represent us again, and so should you!!! You will not go wrong with such an amazing attorney!!! Her attention to details is what helped in winning our case. I am happy to say that my son will be staying at home with me!

Kristen was very knowledgeable about the laws of my matter. She clearly explained my rights and was very helpful in directing me in the next steps of my journey. She is extremely professional and still very compassionate. I felt confident going to court knowing she was handling my case.

During the intial visit and each time I met with Ms Shannon, she appeared to be somewhat timid> At one point I remembered thinking that I needed an attorney with a little more "umph". Ahh...hhh was I surprised! This is a smart attorney. She is thorough and tough when she needs to be. Not only diid I see a great deal of "umph" but when my case was done, I'm also sure the opposing attorney was thinking, "umph..umph...ummm" because she surprised him too!!! Attorney Shannon will work hard for you. But...what impressed me the most was her response to my telephone calls and many questions. Her receptionist (Anne) was on point as well. Although, I hated the fact that I needed an attorney, she make the process a little more bearable.

Kristen consultation gave came to fruition in the courtroom. Money well spent. She's a hard worker.

The only, but huge, issue I had with her services is that I found her to be extremely uncommunicative. Not being an attorney I had no idea what to expect, and she did next to nothing to prepare me for court. I was not told what would happen, how to prepare myself, what to know, what to do, what she needed from me, what anyone needed from me, etc. I felt the entire time that I was very low on the totem pole in terms of priority. After working with other attorneys since, I now know that this is not the norm. My entire case ended up being fought on evidence I had to proactively gather without being asked - because I became scared that she was not following through and guiding me properly. Had I not done that, I sincerely believe I would have lost in a big way. In court, you could tell she was bright, and sharp, and handled herself very well. In fact - I am utterly baffled at how much skill she appears to have, but how poorly she handled the case. At the end of the day the case went worse than expected, and I did everything possible to help myself - but my attorney could have done so much more. I'm not sure she even cares or knows how much those mistakes cost me. For the above reasons I couldn't honestly recommend her.

I’m not one to usually write reviews, but under these circumstances it seems appropriate. I hired ms Shannon to represent my sister on a motion to reconsider and at the beginning she seemed very sincere in her desire to help. Something had changed once she got paid and it seemed like i was working for her instead of her working for me. After all it must be a very strenuous process to write a letter under these current times we live in. My sister by no means is a bad person she suffers from addiction and nothing more then a possession charge. My father has been in and out of the hospital for the past 4 months and will soon pass without seeing his daughter again. I have lived in another state for years and get back to visit pretty regularly. However i cannot stay full time to help out. It took her three weeks to get the motion ready after i had given her information about the second part of my sister sentence which is a useless subcontracted state run reintroduction program. After waiting the 3 weeks and finally seeing the motion she wrote it wasn’t even close to the information i had given her. The state i was living in was wrong, my fathers ailments and the severity of them was incorrect. I had given up at that point and decided to accept things as they are. I am aware that most individuals usually have things going on in their lives which prevent them from being present, however i would not recommend her under any circumstances .

The state i was living in was wrong, my fathers ailments and the severity of them was incorrect. I had given up at that point and decided to accept things as they are. I am aware that most individuals usually have things going on in their lives which prevent them from being present, however i would not recommend her under any circumstances . She appears to Andy be in it for a buck and she is really not that good at it. Her assistant was very pretentious and you would think she is the one with the law degree.

Other issues withstanding, she did not show up to court! She scheduled two court cases at the same time and I sat in court waiting for my attorney to show up AND SHE NEVER DID!!!! Not worth taking the chance on.

As an out of state driver that was ticketed in Virginia, I was concerned that I would not be able to keep the ticket off my record. I hired Kristen Shannon by phone and we had several conversations about the importance of keeping the ticket off my record. Kristen suggested that I provide a clean driving abstract, do an online defensive driving school and let her do the rest. I'm happy to report that Kristen was able to have my speeding ticket dismissed with no further cost, and no damage to my driving record. Thank you, and although I hope to not need your services for a traffic violation, if I ever do, I am sure to call!!

I am an extremely satisfied Commercial Driver of 20 years!!! Attorney Shannon's knowledge of the charge I was ticketed with and the assurance that this would not follow me into my future, put my mind at ease. Every question concerning my case was answered before my court date. She and her staff were personable and very professional. I live in the Richmond area of Virginia, and had to call at least 7 attorneys in the Va Beach Area and Attorney Shannon was the best choice !!! I recommend her highly to professional drivers and other drivers as well !!!

For many months the fear of losing primary custody of my step-son weighed heavily on my heart. I trusted in God that the Judge's decision would be for the best interest of my son. However, I battled the fear that most parents would experience in this type of situation. Ms. Shannon calmed those fears every time we spoke to her about this situation. She was always empathetic, honest, professional, as well as a great listener. She treated us like family and this is more than I could've asked for. We are indebted to her for her efforts and her generosity. I would recommend her to anyone seeking a family lawyer who sincerely cares about their clients.

Mrs. Shannon is an incredible attorney. She is so thorough and picked up on many things that I would not have even imagined to matter in our family case. I have been traumatized by previous court experiences and unjust rulings with my X-husband so when I found out that he was going to try and get primary custody of our son, all of those anxieties came back. Mrs. Shannon, being a family person herself, listened carefully to all of my concerns and actually made the court experience incredibly peaceful (I never thought that was possible). The judge even said that it was the most "memorable" court experiences because of how wonderful everything was. She also did an excellent job keeping us up to date and informing us of what was going on in a way that we could understand (legal terminology is another language for me). She took in each of my anxieties and fears with an open ear and even prayed with us when asked to do so. I love her heart! If we have any future legal matters (especially in the family area) we would be sure to ask her to represent us again, and so should you!!! You will not go wrong with such an amazing attorney!!! Her attention to details is what helped in winning our case. I am happy to say that my son will be staying at home with me!

Kristen was very knowledgeable about the laws of my matter. She clearly explained my rights and was very helpful in directing me in the next steps of my journey. She is extremely professional and still very compassionate. I felt confident going to court knowing she was handling my case.

During the intial visit and each time I met with Ms Shannon, she appeared to be somewhat timid> At one point I remembered thinking that I needed an attorney with a little more "umph". Ahh...hhh was I surprised! This is a smart attorney. She is thorough and tough when she needs to be. Not only diid I see a great deal of "umph" but when my case was done, I'm also sure the opposing attorney was thinking, "umph..umph...ummm" because she surprised him too!!! Attorney Shannon will work hard for you. But...what impressed me the most was her response to my telephone calls and many questions. Her receptionist (Anne) was on point as well. Although, I hated the fact that I needed an attorney, she make the process a little more bearable.

Kristen consultation gave came to fruition in the courtroom. Money well spent. She's a hard worker.

The only, but huge, issue I had with her services is that I found her to be extremely uncommunicative. Not being an attorney I had no idea what to expect, and she did next to nothing to prepare me for court. I was not told what would happen, how to prepare myself, what to know, what to do, what she needed from me, what anyone needed from me, etc. I felt the entire time that I was very low on the totem pole in terms of priority. After working with other attorneys since, I now know that this is not the norm. My entire case ended up being fought on evidence I had to proactively gather without being asked - because I became scared that she was not following through and guiding me properly. Had I not done that, I sincerely believe I would have lost in a big way. In court, you could tell she was bright, and sharp, and handled herself very well. In fact - I am utterly baffled at how much skill she appears to have, but how poorly she handled the case. At the end of the day the case went worse than expected, and I did everything possible to help myself - but my attorney could have done so much more. I'm not sure she even cares or knows how much those mistakes cost me. For the above reasons I couldn't honestly recommend her.

I’m not one to usually write reviews, but under these circumstances it seems appropriate. I hired ms Shannon to represent my sister on a motion to reconsider and at the beginning she seemed very sincere in her desire to help. Something had changed once she got paid and it seemed like i was working for her instead of her working for me. After all it must be a very strenuous process to write a letter under these current times we live in. My sister by no means is a bad person she suffers from addiction and nothing more then a possession charge. My father has been in and out of the hospital for the past 4 months and will soon pass without seeing his daughter again. I have lived in another state for years and get back to visit pretty regularly. However i cannot stay full time to help out. It took her three weeks to get the motion ready after i had given her information about the second part of my sister sentence which is a useless subcontracted state run reintroduction program. After waiting the 3 weeks and finally seeing the motion she wrote it wasn’t even close to the information i had given her.

It took her three weeks to get the motion ready after i had given her information about the second part of my sister sentence which is a useless subcontracted state run reintroduction program. After waiting the 3 weeks and finally seeing the motion she wrote it wasn’t even close to the information i had given her. The state i was living in was wrong, my fathers ailments and the severity of them was incorrect. I had given up at that point and decided to accept things as they are. I am aware that most individuals usually have things going on in their lives which prevent them from being present, however i would not recommend her under any circumstances . She appears to Andy be in it for a buck and she is really not that good at it. Her assistant was very pretentious and you would think she is the one with the law degree.

Other issues withstanding, she did not show up to court! She scheduled two court cases at the same time and I sat in court waiting for my attorney to show up AND SHE NEVER DID!!!! Not worth taking the chance on.
