I met Justin through the National College for DUI Defense and attended the most advanced DUI blood testing seminar in the country with him. He is one of the most intelligent and innovative DUI attorneys I have ever met. I would send a family member to him for representation without hesitation. And, as a former DUI police officer, DUI defense investigator, DUI prosecutor, and DUI defense attorney, I know a LOT of DUI attorneys. He’s the best!
Justin McShane’s dedication and devotion to his clients is unsurpassed. His knowledge and skill as an advocate are unparalleled. His drive and motivation make him an obvious choice for anyone who needs their rights protected. He cares about you and what happens to you when others only say they do.
Justin has exploded onto the national DWI trial lawyer scene over the past few years with a fresh approach to defending the Constitution and his clients. Justin is always willing to stop what he is doing to help out his fellow trial lawyers and I am glad to call him a friend. Justin is driven towards successful defense of his clients. It shows in his presence at the best national training seminars, the certifications he has attained, the cross examination strategies he has shared with me and through his ever expanding DWI library. Justin is always developing new theories on advancing the interests of his clients by staying one step ahead of the State when it comes to knowledge and dedication to work.
