Phenomenal Lawyer

Mike is a great Lawyer he has a professional and caring demeanor. When it comes to Law he's a strategic thinker and very aggressive @ getting his objectives across. He knows the Law & Court System very well. I liked that he's very confident he made my experience with him very comfortable he went way... beyond the scope of my expectations several times over when dealing with my Federal Charges,not to many lawyers reach out to their clients @ 12 am on weekends emailing and calling you about your case. In the past I have had many experiences with other Lawyers but Mike is an exception to the rule. I respect a Lawyer who has his client's best interest @ heart. I would strongly urge anyone who's in need of a Federal Criminal Lawyer to contact Mike Shapiro.
