I have been dealing with a custody case since 2016, moving from one state to another, including Maryland. I honestly was over it in 2019. I'm not saying I gave up, but it has been financially draining and mentally stressful. I also feel that most of my previous attorneys have not been listening to me. I was not prepared, nor do I really know what the process will be or how to prepare myself for court. When I received mail from the Maryland court, I knew it would be another lengthy process. We all know how court processes are; it's like submitting an appeal and waiting while it cost you money, which can take a month or two. Like anyone else, I looked around online and talked to multiple attorneys and firms—most of them do not understand me; some think the case is a bit complicated. Most of them want money upfront. Some say it won't work for me. So I kept searching and found the Law Office of Shelly M. Ingram, LLC. I spoke to Attorney Shannon first. Shannon was my initial attorney, then Jessica took over my case when Shannon went on maternity leave. The transition was smooth. Jessica was ready for my court trial from the start. Both of them were straightforward about what to expect—no promises, no false hope. Even Shelly, when she took over the last part of the case, told me what could happen, but she also said we all have facts. I believe I made the right choice to have them represent me. The court process alone is very stressful, but having someone who is prepared and ready to handle things for me is like lifting a heavy burden off my shoulders. I highly recommend the Law Office of Shelly M. Ingram, LLC—especially if you are in need of legal assistance and a service member.

I highly recommend the team at the Law Office of Shelly M.Ingram. Greg, Eric, and Laurie explained every step in the divorce process, providing thoroughly professional advice and helpful options. The emotional support that their positive approaches to problem-solving provided was invaluable for me personally. When I was researching for a divorce attorney, I found that a number of the many, very positive reviews were written by other attorneys. Knowing that this is the family law firm chosen by their peers in the profession sealed the deal for me. I'd also like to note that for my case, there were several difficulties to overcome that the Shelly Ingram team proactively helped me to face and respond to. The divorce was made final last week, and I'm extremely satisfied with the work, advice, support, and guidance provided by the team. Thank you very much.

Very professional, clear communication, thorough service. I was very grateful to have Ms. Stanton as my attorney — her professionalism was very reassuring and made a very difficult part of my life a bit easier to navigate. I am also grateful for Ms. Danko, the administrator, who was always there to provide timely help.

I came to Shelly with a highly volatile and emotional divorce issue involving alimony and custody. She was very empathetic while maintaining a very professional demeanor and always providing helpful insights and advice. Shelly's office consistently responded to any communication within 24 hours and did not waste time getting problems solved. I would highly recommend anyone having family law issues come to Shelly.

I reached out to the law office of Shelley M. Ingram, LLC to help navigate my divorce. I worked with Lindsay and after our consult call, I immediately knew that I wanted to work with her. From the jump, Lindsay put my at ease and walked me through all steps and scenarios. Lindsay and team helped draft a Separation Agreement and handled all the filing and communication with opposing counsel. I feel a true weight lifted off my shoulders after working with this team. My divorce wasn't a super sticky one as we had already split up assets and possessions, but it was still emotional and confusing. The legal system can be very overwhelming for those of us that don't deal with it and I felt extremely prepared thanks to Lindsay's assistance and guidance. Lindsay, Laurie and the team were organized, responsive, and thorough. I am so appreciative of their kindness, calming demeanor, and expertise throughout this whole process.

A Guiding Light in a Dark Time.
I was hit with a completely unexpected and painful divorce, I felt overwhelmed, lost, and unsure of what the future held. Enter Shelly and her incredible team — and everything changed.
From the very beginning, Shelly was the calm in the middle of a very heavy storm. She not only guided me through every legal step with confidence and expertise but also made sure I truly understood each part of the process. She never let me feel like I was going through it alone. She held my hand during one of the most difficult times of my life, strong when she needed to be, and compassionate when I needed support.
Her team Shannon and Lauren were just as supportive and responsive, helping me navigate each twist and turn with clarity and reassurance. Their professionalism, empathy, and attention to detail were beyond what I ever expected.
I don’t wish divorce on anyone — but if you ever find yourself there, don’t look any further than Shelly Ingram. She is more than just an attorney; she’s an advocate, a protector, and a guide through the storm.

When I initially contacted the offices of Shelly Ingram, I was in the middle of a high-conflict separation and barreling toward a messy divorce. I had no game plan and faced the possibility of severely restricted time with my children. Shelly and her team helped calm the waters. I chose them because of their reputation for collaborative divorce. Her team navigated me through this stressful process with honesty and professionalism. Instead of extensive and expensive court drama to even further fracture the family, my matter was able to be settled in mediation and the relationship and time with my children preserved. Shelly and her firm is definitely money well spent!

If you have the unfortunate circumstance of having to divorce, or go through any other legal family action, the most critical decision you can make is choosing the right legal representation---Shelly and her team did not disappoint. Shelly was always transparent about what I should expect given my case and assured me that she would work hard to limit any losses. I appreciated that she never tried to sugar coat anything; rather, she sought to educate me on complex concepts and manage my expectations. Shelly, Shannon, and Lauren helped keep me organized with administrative details (and there were many!) and were very discreet about the personal details that I shared with them. What I value the most is that Shelly acknowledged how emotionally draining this process is, inquired about how I was doing throughout the entire process, and refocused my energy and attention to what needed to be done. I benefitted greatly from Shelly’s knowledge, experience, and strategic planning and I could not have asked for a more favorable outcome. Thank you Shelly, Shannon, and Laurie!
