Biography
Before joining A-Team DUI, David gained considerable DUI Defense expertise at two of California’s best known DUI defense firms.

He worked for four years doing chemical analysis at Glaxo, a leading international pharmaceutical firm. David is a member of the American Chemical Society.
David provides both an initial analysis of a client’s case and an ongoing commitment to a thorough defense strategy.

I wouldn't recommend this law firm
Not happy at all especially with the attorney Shapiro handed me off to. He is not the trial lawyer so the next attorney cost me a lot of money and advised me to take a plea deal with a 0.02 blood alcohol level. I am still paying for this mistake in hiring this firm.
