Posted by Brendan | May 26, 2024 | Hired Attorney

Better than you can imagine

Attorney Shapiro went above and beyond for me and my family. She genuinely cares about people and will work hard for what’s right. She blew my expectations out of the water. I would recommend her to anyone that needs a lawyer. And would never hesitate to hire her again. Everything was done in a very ...timely manner and she kept in touch with me every step of the way. I’ve used a lot of lawyers over the years and she’s the only one I would recommend to people!!

Posted by Alexander | April 30, 2024 | Hired Attorney | Wrongful Termination

Expecations exceeded

Attorney Shapiro exceeded all my expectations. My case was a wrongful termination and discrimination case, as I was laid off shortly after requesting PFMLA leave. During our consultation she validated that I had been wronged by my previous employer, and took the time to discuss the nuanced and sen...sitive aspects of my case. The whole process took several months to play out and she was extremely professional and communicative throughout. Where Attorney Shapiro really shined was during the negotiation of the settlement. She was in constant contact to guide me through as we rejected the first several low ball offers. By the time negotiations were through, we had a fair settlement! Thank you Attorney Shapiro!!

Exceeded all my Expectations!

Anna was amazing. She was professional, accomidating and kind. She settled my case beyond my expectations and in a very short amount of time. I am very pleased and highly recommend.

Got on my case immediately!

Anna got on top of my case IMMEDIATELY regarding an employment related settlement. I appreciate her being prompt in resolving my issue for me and I’m happy with the result!

Anna's a winner!

Anna Shapiro responded in a timely manner, was up front about expectations and the intricacies of filing a suit in Massachusetts as an employer at will state. She still got the job done and was able to get a settlement that was fair in a short period of time. She also has a great team of supportin...g staff that were available when needed. I would definitely feel comfortable with recommending her to friends and family.
