Like most people I normally don’t write reviews unless I want to ding someone but I felt compelled to write about my experience with the law firm of Shepherd and Osborne. I hope that my experience will help those who find themselves in a similar situation that my family faced not too long ago. In December 2010, my son was facing very serious criminal charges that could have sent him to state prison for 7-15 years, if not longer. I searched on the internet for an attorney in Nashua and came upon the website of Shepherd and Osborne. Although I knew nothing about Mark or Justin, I learned a great deal about them from their site; I liked the fact that they both were former prosecutors. In my mind I thought that could be a great advantage, at least that’s what I was hoping for. I immediately called the office and set up an appointment the very next day. After discussing the nature of my son’s case; Mark did not sugar coat the seriousness of the charges. He explained the process we would have to go through step by step; it would be a tough case to win but he would use all his resources to defend my son. What I liked the most about Mark was eagerness to take on the challenge of defending my son which made me more at ease about the situation. I got the sense that he would do everything he could to get the best outcome possible. There was a genuine concern from Mark about the situation my son faced. I knew from that first meeting he was the right lawyer to help us. The next day Mark went to the jail to meet with my son to go over his case. My son’s criminal activity was largely due to his severe drug addiction that he has struggled with for many years. As many of us know, jails are not equipped to provide resources for the thousand of inmates incarcerated with drug addiction problems. Mark set the wheels in motion to get him out of jail and into a drug rehab within a short time frame. Mark kept close contact with him and reported all the good work he was doing to the judge and prosecutor. He even took time out on a Saturday to drive to Keene NH to meet with us to reassure us about what was happening with the case. To be honest the type of sentence my son was looking at was extremely frightening and I know I put a lot of pressure on Mark but he always took the time to take my calls and help to reassure me that things were on track with the case. On October 2011, my son walked out of the Nashua Superior court with no additional jail time thanks to all the hard work Mark put in on my son’s case. He was successful in reaching an agreement of probation and my son was able return to rehab to continue his battle addiction. Over the next several months Mark continued to keep in contact with us even though the case was considered closed. He was honestly concerned about us and wanted only the best for my son. I wish I could end this letter on a positive note but there was no happy ending to our story. Sadly, my son relapsed and again is facing criminal charges. I did not hesitate to reach out to Mark to help my son. He was not only there to help my son but was a shoulder on many occasion for me to cry on as my son continues to face uncertainties once again in his life. I honest feel if you are looking for a lawyer that has excellent legal skills and a genuine concern for not only his client but the families also involved in the legal nightmare I can’t recommend Mark Osborne enough. I will always be grateful to Mark for everything he has done for my family.

My Name is Joseph, and i am currently 20 years old. Justin and Mark helped me win an ugly "Reckless Operation" case back in October 2012 (incident happened in august 2012). Going into the case I knew I was not guilty, I had crashed into a tree, and the cop who arrived on scene accused me of drag racing and treated me like a criminal, showing me nothing but disrespect and accusing me of lying to him which was overly ridiculous and false. However, I was concerned the court would take the cops word over mine. I was overly surprised by how well Justin and Mark both treated me, the treated me entirely with respect and honesty. I met with Justin weeks prior to my court date, and was immediately re-assured that I had nothing to worry about, and that they would do everything and anything to help me win my case, going out of his way to make me feel at ease and anxiety free of the situation, and that meant the world to me at that point. It was what I needed to keep calm and configure what I was to do. When the court date came around the case was swift and easy. We had won, allowing me to keep my license, my job, and my life. I would HIGHLY recommend the Law Office of Shepherd & Osborne to anyone who is in any legal scenario. They go out of their way to make you feel at ease, treating you like a best friend and most of all, like a human being. I will always be grateful for what Justin and Mark did for me, and I will never forget how well everything went with them on my side. They clearly are the best at what they do!

My name is Matt and I am a New Hampshire attorney. I first saw Mark Osborne in court arguing a drug case. I thought that his argument was cogent and confidently given. In fact this type of lawyering stood out so much in my mind, that I promised myself that I would contact him if I ever got into any legal trouble. Well surprise, a year later, I got myself into a pickle and contacted him to help help me in fighting for the truth. Honestly, I cannot tell you how great of a job he did for me, words do not even begin to express my gratitude. In court, he talked to the prosecutor to drop all criminal charges against me, which allowed me to continue my life and get back on my feet. Moreover, since I too am a lawyer, I had to report my incident to the bar association fitness committee. He wrote a personal letter on my behalf, drove to Concord for me, and hand delivered it to the woman that oversaw this case. She never contacted me and any incidents against me were cleared. He helped me so much, and while I hope never to personally get into a situation where I need his advice again, I would highly recommend him to anyone that has a criminal issue pending. He gets an A+ in my book.

First and foremost, I cannot thank Justin enough for his assistance! He did such a quick and smooth job for a DUI case from 2008. His phone & email correspondence was prompt and efficient, especially me with being out of state. He was able to get me a court date while I was in town and we were in and out of court quickly. He also got 2 other charges dropped. He explained all of my rights and advised me on what the best option was for me. He got me the minimum fines for my case as well! Justin was also very reasonable with legal fees and flexible with payment. As you can see, Justin has the best interest for his clients. I highly recommend him and trust him to do the best job possible!!! Thank you again Justin!

I visited the Law Office of Shepherd & Osborne in Feb. 2015 for help with my case. It was a very stressful point in my life. I met with attorney Justin Shepherd, explained my situation, and was surprised at how quickly he was able to offer me guidance and support. He dove right in, offering his expertise for my case, answering all of my questions, and completely putting my mind at ease. With Justin handling my case, I was able to move forward and get on with my life. He worked hard to resolve things quickly, and I was grateful to have someone on my side, fighting for me. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone needing legal representation.

Their communication was always consistent, I felt so good after the initial consultation, I know my friend was beyond happy with his experience. They are truly good at what they do, I strongly suggest their service to anyone in need of a defense attorney in NH. My family is based in New York and not once did we feel concerned about not being around. Their word was truly their bond and they exceeded my expectations. If you want to deal with attorneys who will handle you with care and like its just as important to them as it is to you, they are for sure the way to go.

We have been most recently working with attorney Justin Shepherd on multiple felony offences over the last 5 months. He was able to bring our case to trial and achieve a very satisfactory closure. Justin was very aggressive and capable in court room procedures and cross examination of hostile witness to the case. He kept his client up to date on issues as they developed and thoroughly reviewed each and every aspect of evidence presented. I would strongly recommend his services and will not hesitate to use them again . thank you Justin "good job"

I cannot say enough positive things about Atty Shepherd. I wish I could give him more than five stars. He really goes above and beyond for his clients, his communication is reliable and consistent, and he never makes you feel like you are less than him. He is an amazing lawyer. I never thought I would need his services but because of a very unfortunate series of events, I found myself in a position that required the right lawyer! He is the right lawyer! Thank you for everything Justin! You are the absolute best that there is!

Attorney Osborne is a committed, straight forward and trustworthy defense lawyer. As someone who had absolutenly no previous experience of needing a defense lawyer, he took the time to educate me on the process, describe worst case scenarios, best case scenarios and relalistic results based on my specific case. Any question I emailed him was answered within a day or two. Based on my own experience, he went above and beyond to build our case, which lead to a good outcome for me. I absolutely recommend Attorney Osborne.

Shepherd and Osborne and their legal assistant Ms. Schipilliti were all incredibly helpful and friendly people. They are both affordable and reliable. I never had trouble getting in contact with them or their office. They were able to take my charge for marijuana possession and make sure I would not get a conviction provided I take a simple online course. Definitely would recommend.

Mark Osborne got my Dui and taking without owners consent charges dropped to violations. I only had to pay fines and lost my license for 60 days. Much better than what I was charged with. I recommend his firm to anyone who is in need of help.

Attorney Shepherd recently provided excellent service while helping me with some motor vehicle issues. He was diligent, and quickly got the case dismissed. I highly recommend his services to anyone in need of a lawyer.
