I hired Mr. Shearer for my tax case, which was quite complicated. Not only did he put the necessary time in to understand all the details, he also had many different potential solutions. I felt like he had it under control, and ultimately, I got the resolution I needed. The best thing about my experience with him was that I always felt like he was on my side, trying to get me the best possible outcome. He gave me explanations I understood, was not condescending, and made me feel confident.
