Highly Recommend

David and his team worked efficiently to help me with a very difficult case when I was hit by a driver with a suspended license and no insurance. His team was professional and genuinely kind. I would definitely seek their expertise again, if needed

Posted by Tess | September 20, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Personal Injury

Experienced, Knowledgeable, Client Focused

In late 2014, I retained David Shapiro to represent me in a rear end automobile accident in which I was injured. After our first meeting, I knew that he had vast experience in the practice of personal injury law and knew how to address my case. He took the time to understand all of the facts surroun...ding my case and continually called to give me updates on his progress. He ultimately negotiated a settlement in my favor and the amount was much more than I expected. David and his experienced staff were simply terrific. I was treated with respect and they were always responsive to questions and progress reports. Hire David! P.S. I am an attorney also, and wanted the best lawyer on this case. I’m so glad I found Mr. Shapiro.
