Threats to Take Son
I was an emotional wreck because my ex had threatened to take my son out of the state against my will. I thought because he was my son's father that he could do it too. Scott informed me of my rights that I did not even know that I had. He immediately sprang into action and got an emergency order from the court. He handled everything quickly and attentively while reassuring me through the process. I really am grateful for all that he did for my son and I. The end result was totally in my favor. I highly recommend him and thank him for his representation.
False Accusations
My wife made false accusation throughout a lengthy divorce and withheld my children from me... brilliant at deposition (where he utterly tore her apart) and exposed her lies with evidence he guided me to gather prior to our case....extremely detail-oriented and knows the law well...[in] the final trial Mr. Shaw was able to counter everything that was thrown at us through ...evidence and facts. Divorce is a difficult change, process and battle but having Mr. Shaw in your corner definitely helps. I can wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Shaw.
What a Relief
It was a relief mentally and emotionally to have an attorney appear on behalf of my son and I that into court prepared and knew the facts of the case and the applicable law and present it all in a coherent fashion. Thank you again! --- William M.
No B.S. Attitude
Mr. Shaw is one heck of an attorney and his no B.S. attitude is what won me over in the first place. --- Jason P.
Won Custody of My Kids
Mr. Shaw won custody for me of my little boy and teenage daughter, despite my now ex-wife influencing my daughter to testify at trial and to elect to reside with her, and Mr. Shaw cut through this chafe at trial, through the B.S. and distortions, destroyed my ex’s case, and I have custody of my two kids as a very happy father. --- Mark S.
Grandparents Win Custody

How to Choose the Right Divorce Attorney in Georgia
With so many divorce and family law attorneys in the Atlanta area, it can be difficult to decide which attorney you should hire for your divorce case. When you consider which lawyer to choose, ask yourself the following questions:
- Does the firm focus only on family law? If not, they may not have the expertise to negotiate or litigate a complex case.
- Do you have a complicated case, like an international or out-of-state custody dispute? Even experienced divorce attorneys may not be qualified or willing to take on such complexities, which can include arranging personal service in a foreign country or handling complex jurisdiction issues between states.
- How many open cases does each attorney handle? If an attorney tries to handle too many cases at once, you may not get the attention or quality work that you need and deserve.
- How fast can your case get started? Some attorneys have a limited response time and are simply unable to handle emergencies in a timely manner.
- Does the attorney speak "straight" with you? Does he or she know what they are doing? Can your attorney give you a plan? Does your attorney have a track record of real world success and not just empty words or awards?
