Shea and Carlyon, LTD Candace Carlyon Highly Unethical Law Firm
It is our opinion that Shea and Carlyon are highly unethical in their practices.
We believe they often misrepresent the facts, violate civil rights and bend the rules to better their chance in collection efforts. We have talked to multiple attorneys who completely agree with us.
They try every trick in the book which crosses over the line of good legal practices. In our opinion, Shea and Carlyon care more about winning their collection efforts then following standard ethical rules. We believe this is the type of practice that hurt people and give attorneys a bad name.
In our opinion, Shea and Carlyon attorneys don’t care how much they misrepresent the facts and hurt people. As collection attorneys for the most part they get to attack and not worry about the consequences. Now with the popularity of complaint sites on the Internet, the voices of the people they enjoy trying to destroy their lives can be heard and fight back.

If you ever meet Candace Carlyon you will see how mean and ruthless she is. She seems to believe she can do whatever she wants and get away with it. She appears to be a very miserable person with self esteem problems due to being overweight. She takes her power of a collection attorney and appears to use it to try to spread her misery to others. She is a mean and ruthless person who will someday pay for her cruel actions. Karma will always even the score in time.
Some clients might think her behavior, attitude and methods might be good for their collection efforts. The reality Candace Carlyon and Shea and Carlyon makes people dig in and want to fight her and her firm, so they don’t want to settle. Her approach exposes the firm’s clients to more billing than required and potential lawsuits stemming from her actions. Clients would be much better off with an ethical firm that seeks early settlements instead of long drawn out fights.

The internet, like many tools, can be utilized in a positive or negative way. Bringing information to the public is clearly a positive, but the negative side of that free flow is the ability to post inaccurate reports under cover of anonymity. If you want to know an attorney's reputation among her peers, try martindale.com, which posts peer review ratings ranging from A (the best) to C, followed by, in the case of attorneys judged to be highly ethical by their peers, the initial V. Thus, an A-V rating indicates that the lawyer's peers have judged her to be both highly skilled and ethical. I attained that rating and have held it for more than 20 years.
The American Board of Certification of Bankruptcy and Creditors' Rights Attorneys (abcworld.org) is the premier national organization for certification of attorneys in those areas of practice. Lawyers may be certified only after demonstrating their experience, and achieving a positive peer review, ethics review, and demonstration of abilties through both testing and continuing education. Attorneys must recertify every five years, again satisfying the peer review and education requirements. I am proud to have not only attained such certification, but, several years after my initial certification, to have been invited to join the board of directors of that organization and to have served as the chair of the standards committee, as well as a member of the executive committee.
A lawyer's personal integrity may also be observed by the time she devotes to organizations benefitting the public as well as the administration of justice. I serve as a volunteer on the Southern Nevada Disciplinary Board, the American Bankruptcy Institute's Southwest Conference Board of Directors, and also serve as a mediator for the Nevada Foreclosure Mediation Program (where I have conducted dozens of homeowner mediations, in many cases resulting in homeowners avoiding foreclosure and saving their homes via mortgage modification). I also serve as a Nevada Supreme Court Settlement Judge, and a Short Trial Judge.
I would welcome the opportunity to respond to any concerns or complaints, just post your true name and telephone number and I will attempt to address them. Candace Carlyon
