Impressions
We have relied on Shannon and her firm for years, whether it’s for trial support or appeals. The service and results have been top notch.
Shannon has been an asset to my trial team for over 10 years. She offers diligent support leading up to trial, during trial and, if needed, on appeal.
Shannon and I have worked together for the past 15 years. She is an outstanding appellate lawyer and great resource for trial support. If I didn’t hire her, I knew my opposition would. She is simply superb!!!!!!
Shannon is an excellent appellate attorney and provides extremely valuable help at the trial level too.

Shannon McLin Carlyle is, in my opinion, one of the very best appellate lawyers in Florida, without question. I have requested she work with me on a case of significant magnitude to help me prepare the case for an appeal which may follow. She has offered invaluable assistance in that regard; I refer all of my appellate requests to her firm.
