What we do
We specialize in keeping the presumed to be innocent to remain innocent. When you are charged with a criminal case, many folks look at you like you must have done it. Almost every attorney you will meet and interview assumes that you are guilty and looking to “work it out.” They are plea attorneys who never go to trial. Because they never go to trial, they never force the DA’s Office to work. There is only one way to win cases, outwork the other guy. We will always outwork the DA’s office and the police. Always.
When selecting which attorney to hire, please consider:
- Can you call anytime and talk to a live person?
- Do they offer payment plans with no credit checks?
- Will your attorney be attentive and explain what’s going on?
At The McShane Firm, we answer yes to all of these questions. We strive to provide you with a great customer service experience during this tough time.

Unique Lancaster Court of Common Pleas procedures
Lancaster County is one of the very few places that allow defendants who have attorneys representing them to go to court for them. That means if you keep in good contact with your attorney and your attorney is on the ball, you may not have to miss that much work. Pre-trial conferences are little status hearings where the prosecution or defense tell the court whether or not the case is ready for either a suppression hearing, a pre-trial hearing, a guilty plea, or a trial. Usually, you would have to take off work, drive down, find parking and then waste sometimes hours of your life waiting for your case to get called. In Lancaster County, if we are your criminal defense attorney, we can do all of that for you most of the time.

With any guilty verdict on any charge I would have been given 20 months of back time in a PA DOC Facility. Your firm gave me another chance. I will recommend you to anyone who wants their own second chance.

Amazing team!
Corey and Cassandra did everything I could have ever hoped for! I had never been in any kind of trouble before and had tons and tons of questions. No matter how many times I contacted them, they were so quick to get me an answer and help me through so such a stressful time. I got exactly the outcome I was looking for (probably even better to be honest) and it was a very quick resolution as well. I would 100% recommend them to anyone in need of an attorney. I cannot thank them enough!
