Going through a divorce is a traumatic event. Aside from the fact that a couple - and a family - is breaking up, issues of property division, child custody and child support can weigh heavily on a person's mind. The thought of going through the process on your own can be overwhelming. Having a proactive divorce lawyer on your side can make a big difference for your case.

In the Melbourne area, Shawn Reid, Attorney at Law, represents clients with an aggressive, results-oriented approach in a wide range of family law issues. Shawn Reid spent many years as a prosecutor. That courtroom experience gives him a unique advantage over many other family law attorneys who may be reluctant to bring a case to trial.

Finding an attorney who is a passionate advocate for you and your family law case is a must when you are confronted with a serious legal issue. Aside from a wide range of experience, you want to find a family law lawyer who is not afraid to take a case to court and fight hard for you. Shawn Reid, Attorney at Law, is a dedicated, passionate and aggressive advocate for his clients.
When you are considering filing for divorce, you may not realize all the ramifications the process may have. Working with a family law attorney who has the vision and experience to anticipate the issues that you may encounter may make the process more beneficial for you in the long run.

In addition to matters surrounding property division and alimony, Mr. Reid is experienced in handling cases involving military families and senior citizens, also known as gray divorce.Child custody matters, including those involving out-of-state parents, relocated families, grandparents' rights and paternity actions.
Divorce may be one of the most painful experiences you will ever have to endure. Emotions can get in the way of clear decision-making, and the complexity of the legal issues is sometimes too much to bear. At times like these, it is important to have a strong advocate who can remain objective and stay focused on your best interests.
One of the most difficult aspects of many divorces is the division of marital assets and debts. Florida courts generally divide the marital estate in a fair and equitable manner. However, that does not necessarily mean an even split. Several factors can impact how property is divided, and having an experienced property division lawyer can help to ensure that you receive a favorable property settlement.
In many ways, a divorce represents finality: the end of a marriage that may have lasted for years or even decades. But while a marriage may end, there are many aspects that have grown from the marriage that can endure. The most obvious of these, of course, is children. But there is more to a divorce than child custody issues.

Exceptional. Received the utmost respect with professional services and prompt responses. Navigating divorce during a pandemic came with some challenges, but I always felt like I was in great hands and had nothing to worry about. Shawn got me a court date much sooner than I was initially anticipating with everything going on. Highly recommend and would not hesitate to use again should I ever have a need.

Very professional. All my questions got answered and we won what we were seeking. Overall, I referred Reid to a friend, and they won their case also. I highly recommend.

Shawn Reid is an amazing lawyer. He was fairly priced and did not nickle and dime me like some lawyers try to do. He was ethical in his tactics. He covered all the bases I needed him to do. He was extremely thorough and did not leave any details out. He made the process seamless and as painless as possible.

Sean's assistant was very polite and professional while listening to my needs and scheduling a consultation with Sean ( the next day). Sean spent an enormous amount of time with me, explaining everything regarding my child support case against the father of my child. He got everything settled within a month! I am more than satisfied with Sean and his business and would use again if needed.
