“If you’ve been accused of a crime, individualized attention and results matter. I make sure you have the representation you need. I want my clients to see their criminal experience as a speed bump, not a road block, in the rest of their lives."

When you have been charged with a crime, your rights and freedom are at stake. Shawn M. Curry makes it his mission to protect your rights, zealously defend you, and put you in a position to move forward in a positive direction at the conclusion of your case.

Successfully handling hundreds of cases, from felony drug and sex offenses to assaults, thefts, and DUIs, Mr. Curry has appeared in more than 20 counties throughout the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
