Shane provides exceptional mediation services in civil and family law cases. Shane obtained his certification as a General Civil Mediator and is listed on the Kentucky Administrative Office of the Court’s (AOC) roster of Court approved Mediators.

Shane spends a lot of time navigating cases through the court system, but he also provides additional legal services in a number of areas. Within the firm’s Family Law Group, Shane handles divorce and custody cases. Additionally, he is skilled with US immigration law, simple probate matters, and he represents several small businesses as needed.
