A Legal "pit-bull"

The Shapiro Law Group successfully represented me in my divorce, protecting my parental rights and my financial means to provide for my children. I have and will continue to recommend them to friends and family. Anna Shapiro is a legal pit-bull who you really want on your side fighting for you throu...ghout what is typically an emotionally trying ordeal. Her Partner Diane is brilliant, thorough, responsive and was very supportive during the most difficult time in my life. My only problem was that I tried to be a nice guy and negotiate with my ex directly which resulted in delayed action when I should have listened to Anna and Diane. I will continue to use SLG for any potential divorce related issues that may come up as well as for estate planning. Thanks again Anna!

Highly recommend!

I can’t recommend Shapiro Law Group enough. The entire staff was always there when I needed them and assisted me in every matter during a very difficult time. Attorney Tiffany Haines and Attorney Anna Shapiro are truly lifesavers. Attorney Haines is brilliant and hardworking and will always be there ...for you. They take the time to get to know your case and truly want the best for their client. I was truly amazed with how organized and thorough they were during my time with them. Do yourself a favor and call Shapiro Law Group!!

Must Use!

As a Small business owner in Tennessee, I found myself needing an attorney in Massachusetts. My local attorney had given me 1000 referrals through a legal network. After speaking to many of those referrals, I wasn't satisfied so I did my own search and found the Shapiro Law Group, PC. They had over 4...0 google reviews with exceptional ratings. I called and spoke to Anna - the owner of the firm. Anna walked me through their process making certain that I understood everything completely. This firm has a process where they discuss each case with all the attorneys in their practice and brainstorm the best possible solution for you. It was like having your own team of attorneys on your side. There's not enough room to tell you all of the good things about this firm but everyone from the paralegal to my lead attorney was exceptional. If you find yourself in need, please consider Shapiro Legal Group, PC!!

Just in one consultation we knew

We have a very complex case with jurisdictional issues. I've spent most of my days studying family/probate, criminal, and civil law. This includes case law that fits my sons situation for 4 years. This has been a 4 year battle to protect my son. I've had 8 incredible and terrible attorneys and only 1... of my attorneys could grasp what was really happening. Anna reviewed/scanned and brought up many action items that most attorneys didn't even notice. She's a fighter that's for certain and very professional. We left with hope and have decided to cancel the other 2 consultations with other attorneys. I'm no rookie at selecting an intelligent, professional, and fighting attorney. I've never found an attorney with all 3 of the above qualities. Kind Regards, Mike C.

I highly recommend using the Shapiro Law Group.

Based on my own experience, I would recommend anyone involved in a divorce case to hire the Shapiro Law Group. Anna and her partner Tiffany have handled my divorce case very effectively. They have achieved my parenting time and financial objectives, and the results have even exceeded my expectations.... They have also always responded to all of my questions in a timely manner, which made me feel that my case was in good hands.
