Testimonials
“I must say I am still at awe regarding your knowledge and the stature of your unbelievable performance in court. You were so good that you quieted a very opinionated and outspoken judge, causing him to finally consider your argument in the overall picture. No attorney could have matched your convincing position. Such a good job! I’m so proud of you. Thanks!”

“Tom knows marital and family law in Connecticut perhaps better than any other litigator in the state. He is on top of his game in the courtroom, particularly when the case is complicated. He is thorough. If the matter involves complicated financial information, you want him on your side. After three decades practicing in Fairfield County, he knows the judges and fellow lawyers, no small attribute. He also has a top-notch support staff of paralegals, administrative assistants, accountants and forensic accounting consultants. I enthusiastically recommend Tom as a marital attorney.”

“Tom took over for me from another attorney and was the best advocate and lawyer I could have hope for! His knowledge of the law and process are tremendous with 30+ years experience in this field. He is responsive and was there for me 24/7 as we finalized the deal minutes before trial. He was the best partner for this case because he always let me know how it would turn out at trial and provided realistic expectations and creative solutions so we were able to settle (very well!!) and not spend unnecessary legal fees. I felt confident and totally protected w his help and couldn’t be more grateful for his wonderful counsel.”

“Mr. Shanley was recommended to me by 2 friends who had him as their attorney for their divorce and they were very happy. I went through a very bad divorce and Mr. Shanley made it so much easier. He made sure me and my kids had a place to live and money to live on while the divorce was pending. Mr. Shanley is very experienced, honest, loyal and fair. I felt in good hand and protected during my divorce. Thank you and to your professional staff for all your efforts.”
Heidi Z.
“Tom Shanley was my attorney for my post-divorce issues. I was not happy with my original attorney and settlement during my divorce and Mr. Shanley was recommended. He was efficient and to the point. He was able to obtain a settlement when my ex-husband was refusing to cooperate. I am so sorry I did not retain Attorney Shanley for my divorce proceedings. I know I would have had a much better outcome. At least he was able to help me afterward. I highly recommend him.”
Susan H.
“I engaged Tom when I originally got divorced (2012) and more recently when I needed to modify my divorce decree. Both times he ably represented my interests, with favorable outcomes. He is a pleasure to work with, as are all the people in his office.”
