About Shannon M
Shannon M Houk began her academic path at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, where she earned a Bachelor of Arts. She went on to receive a Juris Doctor from the University of Miami School of Law. Those two institutions shaped her legal training and prepared her for practice in Florida.
Her legal career traces two decades in private practice and brief stints at other firms. In 2002 she opened a solo practice under the name Shannon M. Houk, P.A. She later joined the Dellutri Law Group in 2008 as a lawyer. In 2010 she established Houk Law and has practiced there as lawyer and owner. Her professional history shows both firm experience and the demands of running a practice.
She is licensed to practice in Florida and has been an active member of the Florida Bar Association since 1997. Her professional memberships include the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Lawyers, where she has maintained membership since 2010, and the National Association of Consumer Advocates, where she has been a member since 2008. Those affiliations align with the kinds of matters she handles and the professional networks she maintains.
Houk holds certification as a Circuit Civil Mediator from the Florida Supreme Court. That credential allows her to serve as a neutral in civil disputes and to offer mediation services alongside representation. It also complements her courtroom work by providing an alternative path to resolution for clients who prefer negotiated outcomes.
Her practice encompasses consumer bankruptcy and consumer protection matters, coupled with civil litigation and mediation. She represents individuals in bankruptcy filings and advises them on options under federal bankruptcy law. She also takes on consumer-law claims where alleged unfair or deceptive practices are at issue. In litigation she combines courtroom representation with opportunities to resolve disputes through mediation.
Houk divides her time between offices in the Gulf Coast region and an office in Lithia. The Gulf Coast Regional Office and the Lithia Office serve different local client bases but operate under the same practice umbrella. She runs Houk Law, the firm she opened in 2010, and manages both client work and firm operations there.
She continues to handle consumer bankruptcy cases, consumer protection matters, circuit civil mediation, and related civil litigation in Florida. Her current practice remains centered on representing consumers and mediating civil disputes.
