Feb 6, 2014

Hi, my name is Lucinda and on Feb. 6 2014 my sister and I was in a terrible car accident. I had a meeting with one lawyer who basically could only accept either my sister or me but not both of our cases. My mother didn't like that so her friend recommended Mr. David Shapiro to us. We set up a meeting..., we had explain our situation and the first thing he says is I can accept both of your cases (my sister and I). Being 17, I didn't know much about anything, it was my first case so Mr. Shapiro made sure I knew everything. He broke it all down to the T for me. From how long this case would take, getting me medical help for my injuries, to holding off my medical bills until the case was solve. One thing I really love is that he wasn't in a rush to quickly be done with my case. He made sure every decision he made on my behalf was what I truly wanted. He was very fast at communicating anything with me. He worked around my schedule. Man when I say I love Mr. Shapiro for everything he has done for me I'm truly grateful. I always tell him he makes miracles happen. I say this because the opposing party really try to make it seem it was my fault, they threw everything at us but this didn't crack Mr. Shapiro. He didn't even break a sweat. He believed in me and had my back since day one and for that I'm forever grateful because now my case is over and it was definitely in my favor. Thank you Mr. Shapiro.

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.

Look no further

My first car accident, I was frightened, injured and concerned. David Shapiro listened, gave options then explained what to expect including outcomes. He took a nerve wracking experience where I felt a loss of control and turned it into a positive with calm guidance, fairness and yes!!! Honesty. I... cannot speak highly enough about this attorney. Needless to say I am pleased with the outcome.

BEST CHOICE

Let me tell those of you looking for injury representation that David Shapiro will surely be your best choice. As a newcomer to the Sarasota FL area, and a lawyer myself, I was extremely selective in choosing David; and can assure you he achieved the best possible settlement of my injury claim, did ...so expeditiously, and with the utmost professionalism. I recomment David unhesitatingly.

Excellent Legal Service by M. David Shapiro

When my auto was struck by a speeding motorist, who ran a red light, causing me to sustain 8 fractures and my wife 9 fractures, I contacted Mr. Shapiro when I was subsequently discharged from the hospital. He very professionally represented us both for recovery of damages for our injuries. I myself... had practiced law for almost 40 years in upstate New York, before retiring to Sarasota Florida. I am quite familiar with these type of matters, but I chose to not handle this myself, mainly because I had met Mr. Shapiro previously and was very impressed with his demeanor and obvious knowledge of these type of matters. He immediately opened a file on our case and handled it admirably. It took almost a year for the case to be settled, mainly because he had to determine the extent and prognosis for both me and my wife. When the doctors finally discharged us, Mr Shapiro went to work and obtained for us a very favorable settlement, without having to go to court. We had several meetings, and I could easily see that he had all the bases covered. He kept us informed as the matter progressed and handled it so that there were no loose ends to be taken care of by us. We know of several others that Mr. Shapiro represented and they gave us a very high recommendation, which is why we obtained services. We are glad that we did. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.
