Updated Review in Progress - Serious Concerns Under Review…read more I previously left a positive review for Colby Jones based on the early stages of our legal representation. However, as events have unfolded and new evidence has come to light, I am currently in the process of re-evaluating that review. Serious concerns have emerged involving undisclosed conflicts of interest, numerous ethics violations and failures to act on critical legal matters -- issues that are now under formal review. These developments were not known at the time of my original post, and I believe it's important to clarify that my review does not reflect the totality of my experience. As Chair of the Idaho State Bar Dispute Resolution Section, Mr. Jones holds a heightened duty to uphold the highest standards of ethics and integrity within the legal community. I am concerned that the conduct I've experienced may fall short of that duty -- and we are currently preparing filings with the appropriate regulatory and professional bodies. I believe in transparency, accountability, and justice -- and I will update this review at the appropriate time to reflect the full truth of my experience. -Scott Walker #DIGITALJUSTICE

To say she's a horrible attorney would be an understatement. She failed him and his children on so many levels, and refused to do even the most simple things in a custody case like getting financials from the other party, doing a discovery, and submitting a parenting plan. Even with all that and more it cost us over $10k. She's all about the money. And her disdain for the new bill in Idaho to protect Idahos children proves exactly this. Aviod her at all costs. Literally.

I am making an amendment to my first Yelp review! My first experience was with David Bartels with…read morethe Shep Law Group, however, I do not think he is there anymore! My divorce lasted a year and a half, and I didn't end up getting even visitation with my children, and I am the woman! Usually it is the man that doesn't get any custody! I was absolutely heartbroken! I've never heard of anyone getting divorced from their children! I know Ron and Brenda tried everything they could, I just believe that the court system is very corrupt! I spent $70,000 and I didn't get any custody not even visitation, as it sits right now. I don't know if I will ever see my children again! I did get a settlement that was my God given right to have! I still believe my husband made out with so much money that was hidden. Honestly, the whole thing was the biggest disappointment of my whole entire life! I have to learn how to go on with my life without my children, money doesn't really matter! I was gonna get some no matter what! I gave Ron and Brenda, five stars because of how hard they tried! My husband just had more money and better lies!

Hired him to recover my property i was awarded in the divorce that she refused to turn over after…read moremonths of trying to get it. For months he promised to file contempt and civil actions to get monetary value for my property. First it was he didnt want to file because our home was for sale and didnt want to "stir up a hornets nest" because i needed her signature to close the home as the market was plummeting. She filed frivolous motion after motion and emails pro se burning through thousands of my money and he couldnt even best a half wit at hearings. When house finally closed i demanded he file now after 4 months of burning through 9k in my money never recovering any of my property. Even after the sale he came up with excuse after excuse as to why he hadnt filed. He finally sent a demand letter in mid Jan giving her 10 days to pay or suit was finally being filed. 2 weeks after deadline i asked when suit was being filed and just after he asked for yet another 4k for my trust he sent me a letter stating he was dropping me as a client. So he billed me thousands for paperwork and demand letters after asking me to get my missing property from the 80k mark down to 35k so he could file in magistrate in order to recover attorneys fees. Weeks of prep and attorneys fees for a demand letter never filed. Only 2 times we appeared at hearings he was late both times. First time the judge was caught in the same accident traffic so he got a pass from the judge. Second time the judge was on time and kept pushing my hearing because he still wasnt there until the very last case of the hour. I dont care how much traffic there is Meridian to Caldwell isnt a 200 mile commute as a professional you should leave earlier. ******This review was edited after Mr Shepherd sent me a threatening email to sue a 100% disabled vet who is actually going in for spinal procedures at the hospital in 2 hours which further stresses a person who he was hired to protect. To answer his what i believe untruthful response because this is what he will do when he represents you. He states i "wanted to litigate against his advice". He was the one who stated i had a strong case for liquidation of my property to herself for pennies on the dollar. He wanted me to get it into magistrate court and have the emails stating such so i followed his "expert" opinion and got my actual damages down from 80k to 35k as he suggested. At no time did he tell me to not to litigate any further and anyone who wants to view the emails to that fact is free to see them showing i did everything he asked to sue for damages. He took my case to litigate and shouldnt have if he truly advised against it. As for all the other nonsense i couldve done everything else pro se and paid nothing. For anyone reading these reviews watch how he attacks the poster in all of them that is what our experience was behind closed doors was even worse for us in our opinion.
