"A Guiding Light in a Dark Time. I was hit with a completely unexpected and painful divorce, I felt overwhelmed, lost, and unsure of what the future held. Enter Shelly and her incredible team — and everything changed. From the very beginning, Shelly was the calm in the middle of a very heavy storm.

Her team Shannon and Lauren were just as supportive and responsive, helping me navigate each twist and turn with clarity and reassurance.

"When I initially contacted the offices of Shelly Ingram, I was in the middle of a high-conflict separation and barreling toward a messy divorce. I had no game plan and faced the possibility of severely restricted time with my children. Shelly and her team helped calm the waters. I chose them because of their reputation for collaborative divorce. Her team navigated me through this stressful process with honesty and professionalism. Instead of extensive and expensive court drama to even further fracture the family, my matter was able to be settled in mediation and the relationship and time with my children preserved. Shelly and her firm is definitely money well spent!"

"If you have the unfortunate circumstance of having to divorce, or go through any other legal family action, the most critical decision you can make is choosing the right legal representation---Shelly and her team did not disappoint. Shelly was always transparent about what I should expect given my case and assured me that she would work hard to limit any losses. I appreciated that she never tried to sugar coat anything; rather, she sought to educate me on complex concepts and manage my expectations. Shelly, Shannon, and Lauren helped keep me organized with administrative details (and there were many!) and were very discreet about the personal details that I shared with them. What I value the most is that Shelly acknowledged how emotionally draining this process is, inquired about how I was doing throughout the entire process, and refocused my energy and attention to what needed to be done. I benefitted greatly from Shelly’s knowledge, experience, and strategic planning and I could not have asked for a more favorable outcome. Thank you Shelly, Shannon, and Laurie!"
