Shauna T. Bates | The Stoddard Firm

Shauna Bates

Senior Litigation Paralegal

Marshauna, affectionately known as Shauna, is a native of Kansas City, Missouri, but is proud to call Atlanta her home. She became interested in the legal field at a young age, when she watched veterans be discarded and set aside as no longer useful to America once they showed vulnerability to mental illness, addiction, and homelessness. Scenes such as these made her look squarely at the deep despair around her, and she knew then that she wanted to make a difference.

By far a great group to handle such a tremendous and difficult time in our lives, not only do they communicate and explain in detail, but they really care to make this process as easy as possible. I would highly recommend this firm for any of your needs because they really do go above and beyond with blood sweat and tears for their clients

One thing I can truly say about the Stoddard Firm is that they take great initiative in helping their clients. My case and situation took a lot out of me. Mentally, emotionally and even physically. But the Stoddard firm did an amazing job with my case. Shauna and Janine did absolutely amazing with helping me with coping skills and they have great communication. They helped me understand that the process of my case would take some time but that they would do everything in their power to help me differentiate the odds that were against me. Yes the process was time given, but patience is key and at the end everything was successful and I am grateful for them.

Matthew Stoddard and his team of lawyers, including Belle- Anne and the staff, were very professional and caring from the beginning to the end. They were very knowledgeable, always available to answer any questions, and made sure I was always updated. I’m very grateful and highly recommend them.
