Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Straight to the point--extreme professional. Will make things happen for you. Does not like alot of chit-chat, very business oriented.
Howard made several key mistakes in the handling of my divorce in my opinion. His errors I believe cost me nearly $100,000. He always seems to be preoccupied with something else, and I never felt I got his full attention. His staff, however, is excellent.
The process for a fairly straightforward child custody and child support order has dragged on for over six months, with no end in sight. Attorney's responsiveness leads a lot to be desired. We have engaged said attorney as the plaintiff, and executed a Temporary Order, which both parties have signed. Respondent has complied with virtually no terms of the TO, yet Shapiro makes no serious attempts to enforce the order, despite our urging to follow through and bring him to court for contempt.
Howard Shapiro: Dishonest billing practices, lack of communication, poor representation. Had to fire him. Make sure you read the entirety of the contract. He will try to pressure you into signing it on the spot using car salesman-like tactics. I recommend avoiding this law firm entirely and going with a more honest and reputable law firm for you family law matters.
he charges an amazing amount for no defense or strategy - a complete fraud
