Anna Shapiro's Reviews

Posted by Rich | April 27, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

I highly recommend using the Shapiro Law Group.

Based on my own experience, I would recommend anyone to hire the Shapiro Law Group. Anna and her partner Tiffany handled my custody case very effectively. They were able to prove that leaving my home town was not in the best interests of my children. The court agreed with them. They have also alway...s responded to all of my questions in a timely manner, which made me feel that my case was in good hands. I wish I had learned about them earlier so they could've handled my divorce.

Posted by Michael C. | April 23, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Family

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.

Assisted in family matter

Anna and her firm handled my situation with the utmost professionalism. My situation could have gone one of two ways; a drawn out litigious battle or a compromise between the two parties. Anna always kept my best interests at heart and explained the pros and cons of both avenues. There are attorneys ...out there that would have pushed going down the route of a drawn out legal battle for billable hours, Anna is not. You can be assured she operates with integrity. The outcome of my case was the best that could be expected through a mediated compromise.

Divorce.

Anna got me everything I asked for. My divorce was quick, and handled expertly. My ex tried to stall, and she hung in there with me. I agreed to $5000 up front, and she promised no matter how long it took, she would hang in their with me at no additional charge. She kept her word! Thank you again A...nna. Life is good here in Fl.

Excellent representation, champion for her clients

Shapiro Law Group (Anna Shapiro & Sasha Khan) took our case after many others turned us down due to the complexity and going up against a MUCH bigger agency. Shapiro Legal heard us out, quickly recognized the wrongdoing against us. They then continued to work with us for many months finding the mos...t cost effective and expedient route possible. Finally, Shapiro represented us well throughout the mediation process to a successful resolution.
