Incomparable without a doubt

There are no words that can express the gratitude and gratefulness my husband aand I have for Attorney Shapiro aand her paralegal Mr. Chad Biery. My case has not even begun, and I have heard from Attorney Shapiro 5 times personally. My charge was a total shock and a hit to my family. With my husband ...being a stage 4 cancer patient, our family could not take aanother hit. Mr. Chad Biery the assistant did not have step at all. I never had to call him. He made the contacts at all times. Attorney Shapiro went the extra mile and even made communication when she was in court finishing another case. Our family have never felt so grateful in our lives. There is not one thing I can say about Attorney Shapiro that is negative oor her assistant. On behalf of our two children, my husband and I we are truly blessed to not only have an Attorney with quality and patients but a staff that has those same qualities. Those qualities are hard to come by in the legal and justice system these days. We forget that this country was founded on principles and values that our forefathers have left for us to follow for the people and by the people. Attorney Shapiro and her staff have not forgotten those principles and values. Attorney Shapiro knows what its like to want representation but not being able to afford it. This law firm has a system in place for people regardless of if you are rich or poor. We are very proud to have found the Shapiro law firm. My husband is a veteran of this great country. He says Attorney Shapiro and her staff reminds him of one of the reasons he fought for our great country. This is how we make America great again by not judging others and always rembering that someone else is down today but it can be us tomorrow. Attorney Shapiro keep doing what you do best for your clients and by your clients. We salute you and your staff for showing us what the justice system really is and how great this country is when we focus on equality and principles. Great job from the Jennings family. You truly make us believe that there is still a chance for a good justice system. The word dynamic is not good enough for what we have witness with you and your staff. My grandmother uuse to say if its not broken, then don't try to fix it. Your law firm is not broken so please continue to sound the same alarm that you have been ringing. Incomparable is what you and your staff are. Nothing less. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Robert and Catalina Jennings. If you want good and splendid representation, call Attorney Lisa Shapiro. Chad Biery will greet you just like you are standing right in front of him. Then you will be contacted by yours truly. Bravo team, Bravo!!!!!!!!!

Pick Lisa for your lawyer

Lisa was amazing to work with. I was referred by a friend who had her case dismissed by Lisa. My case was dismissed too. On my first meeting with her she let me pay just a little bit down and she started on my case right away which was very helpful. Anytime I had a question I would call or text her... and she always got right back to me. I keep her business card in my wallet and refer her to anyone who needs help.

Felony assault

I obtained Lisa's services to represent my then fiancé in a felony assault case in 2017. This occurred around the same time Texas had experienced hurricane Harvey. When I received the contract stipulations from Lisa, she specifically stated that she would not start working on the case until the fee.../money was paid in full, which I completely understood. As soon as I paid the full amount, it seemed as if she didn't want to be bothered with me or used the whole Harvey hurricane as an excuse to not work on the case. I understand that there were some issues in Texas as far as the courts being shut down due to flooding and damage, etc. I felt as if I had just paid for a service that wasn't being provided. She only visited my then fiancé once and it was on the same day he was scheduled for court to deal with his charge, in which she showed up looking like she had just come from a barbeque according to my then fiancé, dressed in street clothing which to me seems pretty unprofessional. I can say that my experience in dealing with her throughout the whole process did not seem like it was worth the money I spent to obtain her services.

I am so sorry that you feel like I didn’t provide good service to your fiancé as you state in this review. You neglected to discuss the outcome of the case and whether the results were what we were hoping for. In regards to the Hurricane being an issue, it has been a huge issue for all criminal lawyers in Harris County, since we now have to appear in 5 different locations at the same time most mornings. Most are making appearances in more casual clothing and wearing comfortable shoes due to this new development, unless we are set for a jury trial or hearing, which we were not in this case. In addition, my own home took on 3 feet of water, so if I was distracted during those first weeks surrounding the storm, please understand that I am sorry and it was an unusually stressful and upsetting time for me and my family. We were uprooted from our home and our work schedules were changed at the same time - so I hope that others reading your review will understand. Your statement about my needing full payment to begin services is not correct and every person who hires me will be able to review a contract and discuss it fully with me before signing it. I am sorry you had a bad experience with my services during that time period. I invite you to please contact me “off line” to discuss these issues, since you never expressed your concerns with me prior to my reading them here - now 7 months later.

Awesome Lawyer Very Detailed In Her Work

Lisa, is a great lawyer! She has spent a lot of time on my case. She is very detailed in her work. With a case as complex as mine it takes an expert lawyer. She knows her profession! If you ever need a defense lawyer hire Lisa!
