Gerald Shapiro

In 2000 my parents and older sister began their adjustment of status journey. By 2006 they received a deportation notice and in that same year they hired Mr.Shapiro. Mr.Shapiro has always been a wonderful lawyer. Ever since they hired him, he has always helped my family and reassured us that everyth...ing will be okay. The first process he helped us with was getting my parents and older sister a cancelation of removal which took about 10 years. After the cancellation of removal, my parents case was separated. At this time the case moved forward with my father and sister. Mr. Shapiro helped them by filing a motion with the immigration court to reopen and terminate their immigration court cases, he was successful. The process for this took less than a year and by 2019 both my sister and father were able to obtain their green card. Upon my father getting his green card, my mother’s case was able to move forward with the same process of terminating the case. The pandemic delayed my mother’s process of getting her green card. As time passed we always communicated with Mr. Shapiro and he always kept us updated on the status of my mom’s case. Finally this year in April Mr. Shapiro was able to communicate with an immigration officer, he was able to help the case move forward. During this time my mother received a request of evidence in which she had to submit extra support documents for her I-485 application, including medical exams. We submitted the requested evidence right away in April with the expectation of getting an interview. July arrived and Mr. Shapiro contacted us with a congratulatory email saying that my mother was approved for lawful permanent residence. In less than a week her green card arrived. 23 years with a complicated immigration case and at last my parents and older sister have their green card. We highly recommend Mr. Shapiro! He is an excellent lawyer and we are so thankful to have had him as our lawyer since 2006. Thank you very much for everything you have done for us, Mr. Shapiro!

I usually don't write recommendations but in this case I felt I had to. I chose Jerry's office to represent me in a request for Green Card in front of the immigration department. Jerry was extremely professional, very relaxed, always available and knew how to deal with all the difficulties that were ...on the way. My case was a bit problematic and even had to postpone the interview (twice!), Jerry knew how to best address the issue. Jerry accompanied us all the way and he also flew to be with us in an interview. I highly recommend him.

Jerry Shapiro is an honest and ethical lawyer and I am privileged and grateful to have had him diligently represent me in my removal proceedings case. Jerry became my immigration lawyer in 2014. I immigrated from El Salvador in 2000 and because my criminal record, I required his services when I was f...acing deportation after a dui and a hit and run. My case spanned 8 years, the process was tough, I’m sure anyone could imagine, and he never one time left me hanging. I originally filed for a green card through my wife but when my marriage didn’t work out, Jerry was able to facilitate my eligibility through Nacara. His fees are extremely fair and I would have paid even more for his services, diligence, ethics, and perseverance with the whole process and my many court hearings. Now that my case is closed and I am officially a green card holder, myself and my family are eternally grateful to Jerry Shapiro. This is the type of lawyer you want representing you. My aunt has even began working with him to resolve her legal status. I highly recommend Jerry Shapiro as your immigration lawyer, it will change your life.
