HOW WE APPROACH CRIMINAL DEFENSE CASES

After any arrest, the stakes are high. Without the right legal counsel, you could be facing serious penalties. Prosecutors work hard to ensure that you receive the maximum sentence available for your specific charges, so you need to work with an attorney who can aggressively match their efforts.

We can anticipate the prosecutor's course of action and strategize to secure a favorable outcome for your case. If a case cannot be settled outside of court, we can aggressively litigate on your behalf at trial. We have confidence in our ability to tenaciously defend your case.

We are dedicated to the defense of our clients, and each person interested in retaining our firm has the chance to thoroughly express their concerns during an initial consultation. When you retain our services, we can draft an effective legal strategy to help provide you with the best available outcome for your case.

At the Law Office of Shawn M. Cline, PC, we are aware that no two cases are like and we approach each case as a unique entity that deserves a personalized defense.

Our reviews

    "Shawn was a calming force -- with a lightening smart intellect, who helped us to understand a realistic outcome for our case."
    At a trying time where fear and insensitivity ruled the day, he was a guiding light for us to shepherd us through the bureaucracy of “the law.” Shawn was a calming force -- with a lightening smart intellect, who helped us to understand a realistic outcome for our case that turned out to be the best possible outcome for our family. His fees are absolutely fair and reasonable. Given his talent he could have easily asked for more, but did not. He is a true professional and who possesses a warm, personable, understanding personality. That is the true value of this man. We would absolutely recommend him to the closest family member, or anyone else in need of legal counsel.

    "His preparation and cross examination coupled with his knowledge of the law led to a complete dismissal of ALL the charges against me."
    Shawn represented me in a military trial case that tested every aspect of my existence. He was very supportive and direct preparing for everything leading up to the trial. I actually could not have imagined how things would have turned out had he not been in that court room with me that fateful day. But his preparation and cross examination coupled with his knowledge of the law led to a complete dismissal of ALL the charges against me. Thank you sir for giving me my life back! He epitomizes excellence!
