Firm: Shea, Aiello & Doxsie, PLLC

Prior to establishing my career at Shea, Aiello & Doxsie, PLLC, I graduated from Michigan State University with a Bachelor of Science in 2003. Not satisfied, I decided to continue my education at the University of Detroit Mercy Law School in August of 2004 to pursue my Juris Doctorate. While in law school, I was able to gain significant experience in both the law office and the courtroom. I worked as a law clerk for an Oakland County creditor's rights firm as well as serving as a member of the University of Detroit Mercy's Urban Law Clinic. The Urban Law Clinic provides legal services to indigent residents of the surrounding community, primarily in the City of Detroit. The Clinic was the first opportunity I had to work with elder members of society and provided the foundation for my area of practice today. In the courtroom, I served as a judicial intern to the Honorable Mark S. Switalski of the Macomb County Circuit Court and participated in all courtroom functions, including drafting judicial opinions.. Upon completion of law school I sat for the Michigan Bar Exam and received my license to practice law in Michigan in November 2007. From my experiences in law school and the workforce, I decided that my attributes were best utilized working with clients in a personal setting, allowing me to help them accomplish their individual goals. Working for Shea, Aiello & Doxsie, PLLC has allowed me that opportunity.. I have been with the firm since January 2008, and currently work in the firm's Southfield and Clinton Township offices. I believe that everyone needs to know what options they have from an estate planning standpoint and the consequences of not having the proper legal documents in place. To date, I have worked with hundreds of clients in a one-on-one setting with the goal of accomplishing each client's individual estate planning needs. Additionally, I regularly hold complimentary seminars on estate planning all over the Metro Detroit area, with a focus on businesses and charitable organizations. The experience has allowed me to spread the word on the importance of estate planning and the need to have an experienced professional's help.
