Justin Brett Shapiro

After my wife suffered a serious accident in a motel (broken leg), I reached out to an attorney I trust who lives out of town. He spent some time looking around for an attorney in Miami who could help us. He eventually put us in touch with Justin, whom he knew only by reputation, and assured us we wo...uld be in good hands. That was our lucky day. Justin was business-like, straightforward, and very clear about the prospects for our case. We immediately felt comfortable with him and confident that he would do a good job. He never over-sold the possible results and outcomes, but he assure us that we had a solid case. He gathered a lot of information from us and moved very quickly. I was impressed, in fact, with how fast he moved to arrange depositions, question witnesses, get experts to make the required inspections, and so forth. He amassed a considerable file. It took only 11 months from the date of incident to get to the point where we could hold the required mediation hearing, where the other party made an offer (which we accepted) that was considerably higher than anything we had anticipated. At no point did my wife (a retired attorney) or I have reason to doubt that we had been well served, and then some. Litigation of this sort is not a pleasant experience, by any means. But Justin made this as smooth and stress-free as he could, and he did a great job overall. I'm sure he does the same for all his clients.

I was severely injured due to a fall on a cruise ship, and Justin was highly recommended. As this was my first experience of this sort, Justin patiently and caringly guided me through the entire process. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional and kind. Justin genuinely cares about his clients. ...Justin would always take the time for my questions and concerns. Having Justin by my side, made the experience tolerable. Although Justin is a sweetheart to his clients, he is a powerhouse when faced with the opposition. Watching him in action totally assured me that I was in good hands. He won my case, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome! I strongly recommend Justin and his team. You’ll be treated like family, but more importantly, you’ll have one of the best attorneys on the planet.

I contacted Leesfield Scolaro after deciding that I needed to take legal action against the cruise line after incurring a injury while on our cruise. Justin called to introduce himself after being assigned to my case by Mr. Leesfield. He was very caring and professional for the start. He immediately ...put my mind at ease that I had chosen the right person for the case. He was very concerned about my recovery and called frequently just to see how I was doing and to provide updates as to the progress of the lawsuit. He was always prompt in returning my calls and made himself available whenever I needed to talk to him. Justin always provided a clear explanation of the process, the upcoming steps, and what to expect from the cruise line's legal team. I feel that the advice he gave me was the same he would give to a member of his family. I would like to thanks Justin and his legal team for the guiding me through this nightmare and to a favorable conclusion. I highly recommend Justin and his firm to anyone that needs legal assistance.

I contacted Leesfield Scolaro (the firm where Justin works) following a jet ski accident in Miami felt positive and reassured with the initial consultation with Justin. This was the first time dealing with a lawyer and I had an immediate positive feeling towards working with Justin and his office to ...pursue our case. Justin's work and the whole lawsuit and settlement experience proved my initial gut feeling right. Throughout the entire duration of the case, Justin has been always available, clear, specific and helpful in all our interactions and exhibited professionalism and expert knowledge in all matters pertaining to our case. I never felt unconfident about Justin's abilities, his interests or the positive outcome of our lawsuit. The result was a generous settlement in under 12 months. I can't imagine this having gone any better and highly recommend Justin and his team.
