Hired Attorney Nicholas J. Seldon

Nicholas Sheldon was my Lawyer in a recent Workers Comp Case. I was nervous and had never done anything like this before. Mr. Sheldon gave me assurance when I needed it and was Honest with me at all times. I would recommend Nicholas Sheldon with ease. He was kind, comforting, Knew the letter of the Law, responded quickly & was so easy to talk to. He's not only an amazing Lawyer but most important an Amazing Human Being. We won our case and now I can retire with Peace of Mind. I owe it all to Mr. Nicholas Sheldon... He is my Guardian Angel ...

Hired Attorney Dennis O. Shillen

I hired Dennis Shillen to represent me in a Vermont auto claim. It was a really hard time for me and my family and the only thing that made it better was Shillen Mackall Seldon & Spicer Law Office. I spoke to several injury lawyers in the area like Sabbeth Law and Harding Mazzotti, but no one compared to the level of dedication I received from Dennis. Dennis and his team are not only promoting justice, but they also truly become family. If you get hurt, there is no one better to call than this law office.

I felt that everyone that I spoke to at the firm was so caring. Everyone always helped me get to the person I was trying to speak with. Dennis was very helpful and made the entire process and mediation easy.

What started as a simple injury case from a motor vehicle accident in another state, became unusually complicated. Dennis handled everything, especially the complications, with utmost professionalism and careful attention to detail. One could not find a better or more trustworthy attorney. The entire staff was excellent, throughout.

Hired Attorney Dennis O. Shillen

I was involved in a work related injury few years back and Dennis Shillen has been working with me as my legal council. I must say that Dennis puts his best foot forward and in fact was able to guide me with the best approach of handling this situation to win my case. Dennis Shillen is a fantastic lawyer and will represent you much like he did me. Dennis Shillen in my opinion is a battle tank heading straight against the defense attorney and does not like to back down. Although my injuries still are aching me every day I was able to get financially back on my feet again. Anyone that has doubts I’m telling you from firsthand that he will not want back down .

Hired Attorney Dennis O. Shillen

I had a great experience working with this firm. My initial contract was with Briana. She guided me through the process with compassion and efficiency. Briana is incredibly good at her job. I immediately felt that I had made the right choice by having this firm pursue my case. Mr. Mackall's attention to detail and genuine interest in establishing the best outcome for me gave me confidence. I felt heard. The agreement he negotiated exceeded my expectations. I am thrilled! I felt that Briana and Jim made this process easy and eliminated the stress and dread of my having to resolve this on my own.
