Client Testimonials
Client
★★★★★
Shea is an excellent counsel. His legal advice was especially crucial when it came to dealing with the other side -- we took a non-conventional approach that ultimately saved my military career and, more importantly, my medical licenses. You need that kind of insight and expertise when you decide to go against the grain. Shea was patient, incredibly generous with his time, and, above all, a man with a good heart -- exactly what you want in a lawyer who's defending you. I owe him my life.

From the start, Lance Wood, a military defense lawyer, went above and beyond what the ADC was willing to do--he took initiative and did whatever it took to protect me as his client.
Because of Lance's hard work, my case resulted in only administrative paperwork--an LOR--with no loss of rank and no loss of pay.

It's hard to put into words the impact Shea has had on my life. He didn't just represent me; he fought for me. Shea took the time to truly understand both me and the complexities of my case, digging into every detail with incredible care. Over four full days, he worked tirelessly to present my story with clarity and strength, something I could never have done alone. He showed me that seeking justice doesn't have to mean destroying everything in the process. I don't just recommend Shea. I trust him, and I now consider him a friend.

As I have experienced with this firm is well said about the quality of service they provide to me while going through tough situations and even though took a long time to get the best results. Lance helped enormously but I would like to say Shea was and extreme asset to the resolution of my case. I now believe that you get what you pay for. It was money well spent because they kept it real but also delivered the best results I could ever expect from the entire situation. Thanks to them I can now finally finish my time in the service and retire with all my benefits. Thank you Shea.
