Paul A. Shapiro
Mr.Shapiro is a great attorney. This is the second case that he has handled for me. During covid he made this process so seamless. He and his staff constantly checked on me and they were really concerned. I would recommend them to anyone.

Personal injury Attorney | Sep 14
Relationship: Worked together on matter
"I have had the recent pleasure of working with Mr. Shapiro on a personal injury matter. Throughout the course of the case, Mr. Shapiro and his firm displayed the highest level of professionalism and courtesy. We were able to achieve outstanding results for a family in need of our help. I would highly recommend Mr. Shapiro and his firm in the future for any and all matters involving personal injury."
Car accident Attorney | Aug 18
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
"I met Paul in 1992 as we started law school together and have remained friends and colleagues ever since. Paul always took his legal education very seriously. Early in his career he decided to build his own firm focusing on personal attention to his clients. As a fellow personal injury lawyer, I would trust my own clients to Paul because I know he has the experience, knowledge, training, and professional ethics, but equally important, a big heart and passion for helping people. On a personal level, Paul is a true gentleman, has strong family values, and is a true friend."
Personal injury Attorney | Jun 04
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
"I endorse Paul. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community."
Personal injury Attorney | Feb 05
Relationship: Friend
"Paul's a great guy. I got to know him quite well during our first year of law school (when we were roommates) and am very pleased and honored to endorse him. Paul is an excellent lawyer. Perhaps more importantly, Paul works very well with clients. Too many of our lawyer peers focus on lawyering and neglect client service. Not Paul. If you need a personal injury lawyer who will be exceptional with the lawyer tasks AND with helping you and caring about you, choose Paul Shapiro. I would."
