Todd is amazing!!!!

He is the absolute best and payed SO much attention to what I was saying. He gave the best advice to help me move forward with my case.

Todd’s your guy

If you find yourself in a bind, contact Todd immediately to represent you. He was able to take my case from start to finish and kept me informed every part of the process. I was found not guilty for my DWI and couldn’t be happier with the result. This case may have gone differently if Todd wasn’t my ...attorney. His team is also phenomenal to work with. He is worth every penny and also takes a genuine interest in your life.

Highly recommend

I would highly recommend Todd Shapiro, whom I recently had the pleasure of working with on a legal case. I found him to be an exceptional lawyer with a deep understanding of the law and a strong commitment to his clients. From the first meeting, he took the time to listen to my concerns and explai...n the legal process in a way that I could understand. He was always available to answer my questions and kept me updated on the progress of my case. Throughout the case he demonstrated a high level of professionalism and expertise. He was thorough in their preparation and provided me with sound legal advice at every stage of the process. His attention to detail and strategic thinking helped to ensure a positive outcome for my case. In addition to his legal expertise, I found Mr. Shapiro to be compassionate and empathetic towards my situation. He took the time to understand the impact that the case was having on my life and provided emotional support when I needed it most. Overall, I would highly recommend The Shapiro Law Firm to anyone in need of legal representation. Their dedication, expertise, and commitment to their clients make them a standout in their field. I am grateful for their assistance and would not hesitate to work with them again in the future.

Outstanding, EXCELLENT attorney!!

Hiring Mr. Todd Shapiro was one of the best decisions of my life. Prior to meeting with him, I visited several lawyers but he stood out as someone very informed, professional, kind & result oriented. Throughout the process after I hired him, he was honest, kept me informed on the progress on my case,... was ALWAYS super quick to respond (even after hours) and worked diligently to achieve the best outcome. He went above & beyond to fight for me & was successful in getting me the BEST outcome which was a blessing. I am nothing but grateful to him for all his hard work. I highly and 100% recommend Mr. Todd Shapiro!

Mr

Todd was confident and vigilante when I reached out about my pending DWI. I was unsure of the process and felt completely embarrassed and confused about the next steps. I knew I had a good case, but nevertheless, didn’t feel confident. Todd from day one was personable, thoughtful, and prepared. That ...was seen even more so as we got closer to my court date. COVID did make the process longer, but Todd was always available to answer any questions and ease my nerves. I was found not guilty, but would have been pleased with Todd’s work even if it hadn’t worked out in my favor. I would like to thank him for his diligence and I would recommend him to anybody moving forward.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
