I am so grateful to have met Shawn Leuthold, not only is he a highly effective and intelligent business attorney who can handle complex negotiations, but he is one of the most decent and honest people I have ever met. I was in the position of ending a decades long marriage with a long separation, and as the wife of a company owner who had plenty of legal and consulting assistance, I felt rather helpless. At the same time, I was not after an acrimonious divorce, which I seemed headed for with most of the attorneys I interviewed.Shawn guided me through an extremely complex dissolution involving not only the unforeseen purchase of the company with international obligations and complex taxes, but also the heart wrenching and sudden sale of the family home due to loans and outstanding company debts. He also oversaw the equitable division of company stock and resulting future payouts. Shawn defended both my interests and indirectly, my husbands interests, during the contentious acquisition and he successfully and calmly navigated a disagreement with a Korean company that was about to go wrong, while always having my back. The money he saved us during these negotiations probably ended up covering a large portion of his fees.I found Shawn to be extremely professional, responsive, and able to easily communicate and condense information, explaining it in everyday understandable language. His top notch analytical and research skills were especially helpful for this case. Shawn is patient and calm, but make no mistake, he will absolutely defend you and be extremely forceful when circumstances call for it. Believe it or not, he is literally what an attorney should be, committed to justice and doing the right and respectful thing while always doing what it takes to have his client’s interest in mind.Shawn, while still representing me, communicated extremely well with my self-represented husband, to the point that my husband left the proceedings praising Shawns skills and the overall result for both of us. During these stressful times Shawn somehow managed to bring an optimistic viewpoint to life while still being truthful and realistic regarding the results. He even took the time to be a calming influence and speak to my adult daughter who was concerned regarding the welfare of both of her parents.If you have somehow managed to have found Shawn to represent you as your attorney, consider yourself very lucky, I certainly do.

Ive been working with Shawn since 2015 and I couldnt be more grateful to have him as my legal business partner. He has held firm when I couldnt, given words when I had no voice, and is supportive when Im convicted. Ive learned that getting a divorce is the easy part, its navigating the long-term twists and turns in life and trying to find the path of fairness for both parties. Shawn is responsive, direct, and always finds the most cost effective path forward. He has been invaluable to my post divorce modifications to spousal and child support and I highly recommend his services. Thank you Shawn!

If you want your case settled you dont want this lawyer. He does everything in his power to keep cases going so he can bill hours. Case in point. I submitted a global settlement offer to him August 2, 2015. He never responded in 8 weeks. But he billed over $10,000 to the divorce. He has been admonished in courts by judges for his unprofessionalism in failing to return phone calls and emails on a timely basis. He is one of the most dishonest and unethical people I have met in my life. He should disbarred for practicing law.
