Eric Shapiro

I had to file / sue for custody of my son from the mother who had taken him out of state. Mr Shapiro worked for all the rights as a father the law offers. We had three court appearances, including the final trail. In every appearance, Mr. Shapiro was very prepared. He knew the judges, and even more i...mportant, he knew the law. He seemed to always be a step ahead of the defense attorney. He was very strategic in dealing with them. And in the end, that made a difference to the Judge. He also knew correctly how other cases would be ruled on based on the statutes. I mean cases that were in front of us while we waited to be called. When we finally went to trail, there were about 9 things I had on my list that I wanted legal rights to and just personally wanted. He got me 8 of 9. And the only reason it wasn't all nine is because it wasn't something the court could have decided on legally. I got all the rights to my son, and we are now together. I was very impressed with him as a trail lawyer. He seemed to frustrate the defendants attorney throughout, and the judge even spoke highly of his efforts on my behalf. I would highly recommend hiring Eric as your attorney. If I every have any other issues, I'll be going back to him and his expertise.. Get him before he get too booked to take on your case. He's worth every penny spent, and beyond money, I will forever be indebted to him for everything he did for me and my son.

i hired him for my case last summer. It was 8 months of long work, but he has helped me get through all the paperwork, advised me for the next step, including multiple court appearances. I could see he has multiple clients and he was very busy. But in reasonable amount of time I did get response ...back for my questions. I think, divorce case is not win or lose. It is all about compromise and making it official and respecting the rule, other party and agreement which both parties have signed on. So I don't think I won the case; I don't have to, but I do think I picked right lawyer for my problem. He has generated goo settlement agreement we both could work on.

Eric got me full custody of my kids, spousal support that gave me a chance to get on my feet, and held my ex's attorney accountable for keeping the division of our stuff fair. He was honest and professional. He worked with me to make the payments doable because he understands that attorney's fees are... a "necessarily evil." He helped me keep my focus on my kids and was compassionate when I needed compassion and firm when I needed someone to keep me focused on the important stuff. I had his cell phone and he returned calls at all times of day and night, weekends, etc.... I have sent a couple friends to him since and they both had similar experiences. Eric is a wonderful attorney.
