Shaughnessy Law

I hired Mara Shaughnessy to handle an adult guardianship process and am so glad I did. She and her amazing secretary, Kelly, made the experience as smooth as possible. Her office was very responsive and patient throughout all the proceedings. They never hesitated to answer my questions or get things filed on time. I highly recommend retaining Mara's services.

My mother n law hired Myra to do a probate for her. She was very slow to achieve any results. Communicated more with her secretary than her. Had to make appointments just to talk to her on the phone. It took her 10 months to say she can't do no more for her because a will turned up. Talk about a let down. I think a refund is due, cause nothing got accomplished.

We knew that finding an attorney to advocate and provide Second Parent Adoption Services was going to be hard and not as common. We went through four different lawyers before finally finding Mara and her law firm. My partner and I were at ease throughout the whole process even when we faced a couple of setbacks due to the Judge not being familiar with Second Parent Adoption, Mara and Tylinh gave us reassurance that everything will be fine and advocated for us in a professional manner. Once the adoption order was finalized, they immediately notified us. We are so pleased with their service, support and can't thank them enough. Due to their amazing work, I'm legally the second parent of my son and our family is legally complete. If you're in need of Second Parent Adoption, I highly recommend Mara and her law firm!

Excellent Lawyer and law firm ! They took the time to truly listen to all of our concerns and offered clear, honest guidance every step of the way. What stood out most was their responsiveness and attention to detail. We never felt like just another case--they treated us with genuine care and worked tirelessly to ensure the best possible outcome. Communication was always prompt, and they made complex legal matters easy to understand! Mara is awesome ! Very down to earth while still being the utmost professional!

The best hands down! Very professional, courteous and most importantly, she actually cares. Mara and the staff. I found out about my son, 6 weeks after he was born. And he has always been with me but I wasn't on the birth certificate. So, I was having little problems here and there with his mother using it against me, and having problems with her doing what's best for our son. Failing school is not an option. Shaughnessy Law with above and beyond to get me full custody of my son and got his last name changed at the age of nine! I'm so happy and grateful and extremely blessed for this particular law firm in general. I love my kids dearly and how she went about my case. I felt she loved my kid as well. Thank you guys so much!!! God bless!
