Amazing group of people. I had the pleasure of working with Stratton and he was AMAZING. Very honest and responsive. I am so happy in my decision on going with Shiner Law to handle my case. The outcome was more than I expected. They are reliable and confident in what they do! It shows in their work. Stratton was personable and such a down to earth guy. If the need ever arises or if anyone I know needs a civil attorney I will recommend Stratton at Shiner Law Group 1000 times over again. Thank you guys again for all that you have done for me and my family.

After my car accident I searched for a law firm that could help me because I had no clue what to do. I found Shiner Law Group and could not have been more happy to have them helping me. Luckily almost everything about this car accident is in the past and I cant thank Mr Shiner and his team enough for all of their hard work and kindness. Highly recommend! Thank you all!

My case should have been a simple open and shut matter. The team got me more than I thought I was going to receive but, after the settlement had been signed and was ready for dispersal somebody from the opposing side came out of left field and essentially committed fraud to try and shake us down for more money that they were not legally entitled to. Unfortunately this person did have the ability to tie the thing up in the courts for an almost unlimited amount of time and Dave and Joe specifically but the entire shiner team fought like hell for me and put in a lot of time and effort that went above and beyond because they are good people and as they say they can't stand to see the little guy get bullied by a massive corporation

I had an accident about two years ago involving the Parks Department in the City of Boca Raton. I knew that it would be a daunting and difficult task in dealing with the city. Fortunately I came across the Shiner Group. Upon speaking to David, I was impressed with his professionalism and positive outlook. Mr. Shiner assigned his attorney Stratton Smiley as my attorney. Although it took two years, Stratton was equally as impressive with the knowledge of law in dealing with the city.
He was unfazed by the difficulty of my situation and continued forward. He is an outstanding lawyer not only with the law but as well with his personality. In the end I received much more than I could ever anticipate. The Shiner Group is the best. Stay with them!

I highly recommend Shiner law group for personal injury. It's hard to find a business that represents the why of what they do and this particular law group represents just that. They were never anything short of extraordinary. My attorney, Ronnie, always went above and beyond for my case from checking on me to just see how I was doing after my accident to working hard representing me to get the best possible results for my case. Shiner law group is genuine, intelligent, reliable and professional. They work hard for you and the results show it.
