Posted by Leah | April 12, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Matt Shapiro is my hero! Helped me finally get off probation.

The 13th time I was booked into Los Colinas, my mom called Matt Shapiro because my public defender refused to acknowledge marijuana law and my rights as a probationer. Matt Shapiro knew more than the Judge about the intricacies of the law as probation tried to impose a condition that would make usin...g medical marijuana illegal for me. Matt is kind, knowledgeable, funny, and inspires confidence. He worked with my probation officer to finally terminate my probation and was realistic with me, never promised any specific outcomes, and surprised me with conditions he was able to negotiate with the Judge in my case that ultimately won me back the right to use medical marijuana. Fantastic attorney!
