Eric Shapiro

An attorney who prioritizes his clients’ best interests over profit! From the very first conversation, my Lawyer, Eric, understood my situation without me needing to explain every detail. His knowledge and sharp instincts were evident throughout. He truly delivers on everything he promises, and his p...rofessionalism, responsiveness, and work quality are unmatched. I can’t recommend him enough! A good and KIND lawyer for the people! Thank you!

I hired Eric Shapiro in January 2016 to represent me in a family law matter. On the front end, he was very sympathetic and good talker. In reality what I experienced is that he was slow to follow-up with me personally, opposing counsel, or the court, for that matter. He filed an important motion ...outside the term of the court despite my numerous pleas for him to do so. He was previously cited by the Georgia Bar and what I experienced is exactly what he was disciplined for - he is not attentive to detail and he has no staff. He received previous reprimands and letters of admonition. When I terminated him, he sent me a bill and raised his hourly rates. He could not produce a properly maintained file which resulted in additional legal fees to pay for work that I had already paid for. I highly suspect the positive reviews written on this site.

I wish there were an option below Poor rating. On first contact, Mr Shapiro was engaging and responsive. Trying to handle a case in GA where I no longer reside was challenging at best; therefore, I needed to trust a local legal team to take charge and keep me informed. After the initial retainer ...was paid, there was some work completed and even an appearance in court that should have resulted in a much different outcome. Like an idiot, I him more to coordinate with the right officials to execute the judge's ruling. To date (going on 3 years now), I have received no response (i.e., numerous emails, letters, phone calls, etc.) on what actions or outcomes he took after the second payment. I even traveled to his office from out of state for a face to face. ABSOLUTELY NO RESPONSE -- unprofessional and did not meet my expectations. Funny twist -- My last conversation with him occurred when I called from the GA hotel. He answered his phone and when Mr Shapiro realized who it was -- he said he'd get back to me. That has now been over 3 years ago. Long story short. Mr Shapiro did not accomplish what was expected, he did not coordinate with the right county and state officials to resolve in his words what 'should be a pretty straight forward' case. I'm still waiting on escrow funds to be distributed back to me or the child support agency. They have no record of receiving any monies.

Eric Shapiro was recommended to me by a mutual friend and I was a little nervous at first but he more than reassured me. Eric made sure that we focused on the best case scenario for not only the kids but the pets as well. He was responsive and caring making sure I felt heard and that my ex wife's p...arty felt respected. He made sure that I was well advised on the situation. I am a meticulous person making sure all the details are hammered out and he followed through. He met with me several times in person and this only reassured me more that he was the right choice. Not only was his council informative but also humorous at times making the situation less tense. The results could not have been better we are in the best situation after the divorce and the kids are in a stable place. There is no "winning" with divorce but I don't think I could have asked for a better situation. I appreciate all his hard work but you should take him on yourself and see the results.

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.
