About Aaron R.
Aaron R. Shahan earned his J.D. from The John Marshall Law School in 2010. He entered the bar world the same year and has since built a multi-jurisdictional practice that spans the Midwest and beyond. The early years after law school set the groundwork for the firm he would later found.
He is the owner of Atlas Law, PLC, a firm he established in 2016. The move to open his own firm followed several years of practice across different states. That path brought him into contact with varied state rules and courtroom cultures, and it shaped how he runs his firm today.
Shahan holds active bar memberships in four states: Arizona (2010), Illinois (2012), Michigan (2014) and Florida (2015). Those admissions allow him to handle matters that touch several state systems. He maintains an office in Plymouth, Michigan, which functions as a base for client meetings, filings and regional coordination.
His career has emphasized how procedural and substantive differences between state bars affect case outcomes. That practical, procedural emphasis appears in how his firm prepares filings and manages timelines. He concentrates on clear case management and steady client communication. He also navigates multi-jurisdictional filings when cases require action in more than one state.
People who have worked with him describe an attorney comfortable in courtrooms and in negotiation settings. He has experience drafting pleadings, managing discovery and arguing motions. He also spends time on the strategy side of cases, weighing litigation options against settlement pathways. The practice approach is practical and case-specific rather than doctrinaire.
Outside of the office, Shahan’s record of maintaining multiple state memberships signals an interest in cross-border practice. The sequence of admissions — beginning in Arizona and continuing through Illinois, Michigan and Florida — reflects a career that moved geographically and professionally. The firm he started in 2016 operates from Plymouth, Michigan, and handles matters that arise within and across the states where he is admitted.
He keeps an active role at Atlas Law, PLC, overseeing casework and firm operations. He serves clients in the jurisdictions where he holds membership and manages cases that require coordination across those courts. He currently practices at Atlas Law, PLC in Plymouth, Michigan, handling matters across his admitted jurisdictions.
