If you have suffered an injury or experienced a loss of life in your family, you may want to seek legal counsel. We are happy to offer this resource to help you find and select a quality attorney or firm to represent you. This is vital to your goal of proving accountability and punishing the responsible party. These cases are very difficult and complex and the services of a fully-qualified attorney or law firm cannot be underestimated.
A key factor in choosing an attorney or law firm is choosing someone who has experience in the field and who has the knowledge, expertise and resources to guide you each step of a very long way. Meet with the attorney and decide if your are comfortable and if that attorney has the experience to take on a company or corporation.
We are so fortunate to have chosen Bob Kelley and John Uustal of Kelley/Uustal, formerly with the law firm of Sheldon Schlesinger. Their expert guidance and excellent legal work took us through the pre-trial readiness, the six months of trial under Judge Arthur Franza, now deceased, and the five years of appeals. In the end, we prevailed, due to their stellar direction. It took 13 years for Shane to receive justice, and we were able to be successful due to the support of our attorneys.
We at the Shane McGee Foundation urge you to do your homework and research your options for legal counsel. You can start your research by contacting the American Bar Association and, in Florida, The Florida Bar Association. Each of these has referral resources to help you find attorneys who can review your case.
