Brian Williams
Roy Shannon handled a land use dispute for our family property, and his technical understanding of zoning laws was evident. He clearly outlined our options in the initial consultation, and his research into case precedents was thorough. However, communication during the process was hit or miss—emails often took longer to respond to than we expected, and updates weren't always as timely as we'd hoped. The case resolved favorably, but the experience felt slower than necessary. For straightforward real estate or zoning matters, his expertise is solid, but I'd suggest setting clear expectations upfront about responsiveness.
