To this very day I look on her as an angel that will forever have a slice of me and my families hearts for being there for us the way she was. I hold her in the utmost highest regard for not only how good of a lawyer she is, but how good of a person she has to be to conduct herself so professionally in the repetitive nature of families tearing eachother apart and all the ugliness that happens over and over. To witness and deal with such horrid people is truly saintly. RID: 273749

Click to report rating    4/14/18   5     5     5     5     4   What can I say? Shawna and the ViewPoint Team took over during the most stressful time of my life and guided me through the maze of litigation. This woman is truly a super-hero in court. She shines under pressure. She honestly knew the details of my life better then I did! I truly felt at peace with her at the helm. I attribute my success in court entirely to her skills, strategy and careful planning. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone I loved. One of the great ones! RID: 198228

Click to report rating    3/24/16   5     5     5     5     5   Forget "Better call Saul". Shawna L. Specht Barrister & Solicitor is by far the best lawyer I have ever had. Her dedication to her clients is amazing. She is a fighter and does not roll over. In my situation she guided me threw 3 levels of the BC and Supreme Court Of Canada. She won on every level. Shawna is not the type of lawyer you can never get a hold of by phone. I can not say enough about her and her staff. Shawna has the highest degree of integrity. She has the amazing ability to strike at the precise moments with total accuracy. Yet also she has a gentle side when need be. My final statement is, if you are looking for a family lawyer you need look no further. I have 100% faith in Shawna and would trust her with my life and have with fantastic results. RID: 167074
Click to report rating    7/17/15   5     5     5     5     5   I have worked with Shawna for years when I needed help, she is an excellent person and a great lawyer. I would recommend her without hesitation and have done so. If you are looking for someone who will work hard for you, represent you best interests but also guide you in the right direction and treat you fairly, you have picked the right person. She has always been nothing but professional and the person I want on my side. RID: 156870
Click to report rating    3/24/15   5     5     5     5     5   Shawna Specht and ViewPoint Family Law have done an outstanding job with my highly complex divorce matter. The Viewpoint team were accurate, committed and always updated me on the status of my affairs. Shawna was particularly brilliant in her understanding of family law, and directed my case to multiple positive outcomes. Having been a client of Viewpoint for over 5 years she has seen me through trial, and multiple actions post judgement including an Appeal. All were successful. The thing I liked most about Shawna's approach was her openness to resolution, but when needed she was able to quickly develop a strategy to ensure my case would meet with success. I would entrust no other firm to handle my case.Her team was outstanding in their professionalism, emotional support and integrity - no reservations. The mark of a good lawyer is to leave you in a better position than when you started. What do you say if they moved mountains on your behalf. Nothing short of a miracle! RID: 152111
Click to report rating    9/24/14   5     5     5     5     5   I met with Shawna in a 1 hour paid consultation regarding a Child Support matter. Viewpoint was the 3rd firm I met with. The first 2 consults I had with other firms left me with more questions, and I dealt with sales tactics to get my retainer. In stark contrast, the moment I stepped into Viewpoint they were really listening to me. The previous 5 years I have been burdened with uncertainty and anxiety regarding my family matter, and felt bullied by the person receiving my payments. My consult with Shawna began with her really taking in my complete story; She was objective, professional and authentic. She provided me with clear answers. Shawna showed me her comprehensive approach and referred me to other specialized lawyers to support me. I am days away from retaining Shawna. She laid out a clear plan that I intuitively trust. I gained an experienced ally and feel supported. I slept better that night. I have the answers I sought, but most importantly, gained total peace of mind. ~B RID: 143501
     4/25/14   5     5     5     5     5   I think she is fabulous, and frankly I thought that she could have been more aggressive (certainly the opposing side was more aggressive than we were). The process drug on way longer than I would have thought, but that is the system's fault. Divorce is an industry, a disgusting industry, full of 'hired gun' so called experts and lawyers with personal agendas. I thought Specht performed well, was honest and upfront, and cared about me and the kids. Watch out for the law firms that claim to only represent 'high net worth families' - you know all they want is the money, and to drag it out as long as possible. RID: 135889

     12/20/12   2     1     1     1     1   I did not feel comfortable with her and had a bad feeling about putting my fate in her hands. After one interview and a few phone calls I decided not to use her services. My impression is that she is fake. She took the nice act too far. Her boyfriend hangs around the office like a body guard/secretary. It just felt all wrong. RID: 97114
