This is the team for when you are scared, confused and overwhelmed by false charges.

There are few events in life more terrifying than being accused of a crime by the state. There I was, living my life, getting in my care to run an errand. My world changed in a moment. I was arrested and taken to jail. My home, car and possessions invaded. I felt violated, frightened and alone. Th...at event would be the catalyst for David and the team entering my life. My first encounter was with Stefano L. Molea, Esq, who visited me in jail. He asked about me as a person, took the time to answer my questions, gave me his thoughts. I felt something rarely felt in these types of interactions. I felt genuine care for my safety and my situation, genuine interest in me as a person. I immediately signed on as a client of David P. Shapiro Criminal Defense Attorneys. I then got to meet David at my bail hearing. His demeanour was calming, and he had an air of confidence and experience - the kind of thing you see from people who are at the top of their game. I was impressed, needless to say. David got me back home that evening. The process that followed was life-dominating. My thoughts, actions, plans… they all forcible yielded to this new reality. David and the team acted as a reassuring hand, guiding me through a bewildering and terrifying experience. Whenever I had a question or suggested a strategy, David listened calmly and open-mindedly, then provided his feedback on why (or why not) my suggestion would be the best way to go. Inevitably, I took his suggestion. I am where I am today - all charges dismissed - because I trusted him. David, Stefano, Dree and the rest of the team made me feel heard, respected and defended through a process during which I felt perpetually unsafe and in danger. I never felt like I was burdening them. I always felt important; always felt like a priority. While I wish this never would have happened, I am glad my path crossed with David P. Shapiro Criminal Defense Attorneys. If you or a loved on are in the same peril I was in, don’t hesitate. Call David’s firm. You won’t regret it!

Life changing , Great lawyer

Mr. Shapiro is always on top of your case, since my initial call with him I felt the support and great communication . During my whole case there was not one day I didn’t know what was going on. Mr. Shapiro and his office have great communication, anytime I had a question either him or his office was... there to help. The outcome of my case was GREAT thanks to Mr.Shapiro’s hard work and his passion for his job. My federal job was on the line, thanks to him I am still employed and went from 3 felony charges to a misdemeanor. To top it off even after my case, Mr.Shapiro and his office is still there if I have any questions regarding my case and what I have to do. My family and I are extremely happy with our choice on hiring Mr.Shapiro. I would recommend Mr.Shapiro and his office 100 %. You will not regret on their hard work and the passion they have for their job and your case.

4 felonies DISMISSED

Attorney Shapiro helped me to get my 4 felony charges dismissed via a mental health diversion program. I was arrested and charged during a manic episode, and the program I completed helped to remove the charges. Attorney Shapiro helped me to get my life back and I can’t thank him enough

Immense Gratitude for a Phenomenal Attorney

It is hard to capture in words my gratitude for David and his team. From my first conversation with David, I felt hope and reassurance during one of the scariest and most difficult times of my life. David is communicative, prompt, professional and kind. He made himself available when any change or ne...w development were to arise. Each step of the way, David prepared me for exactly what to expect, took the time to walk through all possible scenarios/outcomes and consistently reassured me. Not only is David knowledgeable and experienced, he also treated me with empathy, kindness and understanding. He simply went above and beyond throughout the whole process. While I found myself unsure of many things in the past year, I always felt confident that the outcome of my case was in the best possible hands with David. My case has closed with a very favorable outcome and it's given me a future and hope that I couldn't possibly have had without David's hard work and guidance. I am incredibly grateful - David and his team have set the bar very high.

Remembering my own experience as a "defendant" in criminal court, me and the entire LOODPS team pride ourselves in doing anything and everything within reason we can to put our clients at ease by providing them with the communication needed to enable them to make informed, well thought out, decisions. Sometimes that information may not be what they want to hear, but it is what they need to know in order to start the path toward regaining control of their future. We are happy to help!
