From our first consultation, David was nothing but professional, informative and caring, making a very humiliating and scary situation bearable. As the case progressed, he worked diligently to reduce my sentence to a much lesser degree, keeping me informed every step of the way. In comparison, other ...friends that have received DUIs had horrific experiences with their lawyers, and at the end paid dearly. I found a good one, he was a rock during this episode in my life, never condescending, always helpful, polite and fair. Then years later, when I wanted to get my record expunged, he handled it quickly and effectively. There are many types of DUI lawyers out there, but when you're in need, choose wisely. I highly recommend David.

I found Mr. Shapiro after posting a question about my case and he was one of the few in the surrounding area that answered. After shopping around for other attorneys that dealt with expungement cases, Mr. Shapiro seemed to be the best choice. He is straightforward and explains everything clearly. ...He may appear to be very busy, but don't worry, you will still receive the attention and service of a top notch laywer. I wanted to reduce my felony to a misdemeanor, terminate probation early, and expunge it. With the aid of Mr. Shapiro, the whole process went by smoothly and all three were granted without hesitation. Thank you Mr. Shapiro

I unfortunately was involved in a non-injury driving under the influence accident in April of this year. I just wanted to go to court and plead guilty because I was. My wife went on-line and found Mr. David P. Shapiro. He had high ratings and I watched his video. I liked the way he presented hims...elf, so we scheduled an appointment to discuss the circumstances. His Office Manager, David and assistant Elizabeth were very kind and professional. They gathered the details of my incident and scheduled a conference with Mr. Shapiro. My wife and I met with him and we were very favorably impressed. He appeared in court on my behalf, both for the arraignment and to speak with the assistant district attorney as to a disposition. Based on my high blood alcohol and the accident the options for me were pretty limited. Nevertheless, Mr. Shapiro negotiated the most favorable terms I could have asked for. I am now moving through the rest of the process of this mess that I caused. I pray nobody should find themselves in a situation like this; however, if you are, please know Mr. Shapiro will provide you the best defense and great peace of mind during a very difficult time. You should not face this without competent legal representation. He won't sugar coat anything. He will be direct and honest, which is what one would really want. I greatly appreciate his kindness and professionalism, as well as that of his staff, and would recommend him to anyone facing unfavorable legal circumstances.
