Thank you both [Ben and Jayme] for all the assistance you gave me over the last couple of years. I apologize for taking so long to let you know how grateful I am. Being a Marine mom, I knew God had led me to the right firm as soon as I saw the Marine Corps connection. I wish the best for you personally, and for your firm, and I will not hesitate to recommend your firm in the future to others in the Kalamazoo area.
Thanks again,
Chris W.
Thank you Shaun. You have been a real God send to us.

Your professionalism and generosity during the handling of the [road] project triggered my thoughts, but the more often these thoughts came to mind, the more my mind told me that it was something bigger than that. It wasn't only the handling of [the road project], it was also your efforts to protect [the residential community] from a potential development at [the golf course] and even the handling of the purchase of the lake front piece of property. I personally thank you both for all you have done for me as well as all you have done collectively for the [residential community] owners. You are special brothers, you have created a special organization and, I believe, that God will reward you with eternity."

He is a top-notch business attorney and knows how to get things done, bringing with him his experience as a business owner, attorney, and entrepreneur. As an operations manager, I find Shaun to be in tune to all aspects of his business and the firm he co-owns with his brother. He understands the mechanics of running a business, advertising and marketing, producing revenue, and hiring talented staff. In my 30-plus years working in the business of law, I can attest to the fact that Shaun is one of the best. On a personal note, he is compassionate and caring, always willing to step in and help at any level, and he appreciates and recognizes the efforts taken by those around him. Shaun is honest and straight-forward, and he has a tremendous amount of respect to the military and those who serve our country as demonstrated through the Corporal Christopher Kelly Willis Foundation."

-Deb
"Shaun is one of the most ethical and responsible individuals I know, and with his integrity, he brings the grit of a well-trained lawyer and litigator who can be counted upon to deliver superlative results in a compassionate way. I have had the pleasure of knowing Shaun (and, his brother, Michael) for a few years, and together they compose an unprecedented high plateau of yin and yang in the legal field. Shaun is able to make you laugh -- how many can say that their lawyer can make them do that!? He becomes a part of your extended family, which is probably his greatest curse...he cares. It doesn't matter whether you are a pro-bono client, or paying him full fare, he cares about who YOU are, as opposed to dwelling superfluously on the problem. In all likelihood, this is what sets him apart as a fantastic litigator. I guess it's all about whether someone cares. Shaun pours his heart and soul into his work, and that makes all the difference."
