Posted by anonymous | March 30, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Erica Shapiro, Esq.

I will say that it definitely takes a certain type of person to be a divorce attorney and Erica definitely found her calling. Going through my divorce was such a personal and emotional experience and I couldn't have handpicked a better attorney to be by my side. From the beginning of my divorce to ...the end I truly believe that she understood me, understand my situation and understood what was important. She guided me at the right times to fight for what I wanted and to compromise when that was the right thing to do. Erica was responsive and dedicated to me and my case, I always got the feeling of professionalism as well as compassion from her which is a hard mix. I can’t thank Erica enough for all of her hard work and for working with me to get through some of the most difficult situations.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Before Ms. Shapiro and I began working together, we were opposing counsel on a sensitive, challenging matter that involved both family court litigation (order of protection) and an emotional, difficult divorce in Supreme Court. Ms. Shapiro's zealous advocacy, attention to detail, and effective representation was so impressive to me and to my office that we later extended her an offer of employment. Ms. Shapiro is an excellent litigator, writer, counselor, and advocate. Her clients benefit tremendously from her wealth of experience and knowledge."
