Attorney Information

Overview

I think of myself as a settlement-oriented trial attorney who is efficient, fair and strongly client focused. I am a fourth-generation Arizonian. My parents divorced when I was young, and I was a single father throughout law school. I have been married and divorced, and have strong relationships with my children and stepchildren. Real life has taught me just as much as law school.

Recommends this Attorney

I recently went through a divorce and had Mr Shew represent me. Bottom line...he was worth every penny. He and his team were very thorough, knowledgeable, and truly cared about my own best interests. Not being familiar myself with the judicial system, Michael walked me through every step of the process. I felt that he treated me like a long time friend or family member. Thank you Michael !!! And thank the rest of your team for me. I highly recommend Michael if you want a fair outcome to your divorce !
