Law Office of David P. Shapiro

David is a great Lawyer. He responded to all my questions within hours. I am very happy with the outcome as well.

Mr. Shapiro is nothing but excellent! His aggressive representation of my DUI case led to a more than positive outcome. He rapidly responded to all of my requests with thorough answers and detailed explanations. He answers e-​mails and phone requests rapidly. He made sure that I was aware of each step in the process and followed through to assure the job was complete. His calm demeanor and confidence let me know that I was dealing with a professional at all times. I am forever grateful for his assistance in this life changing experience.

David is a great lawyer. Very straight forward and honest. I’m glad I went with him. He got me a great and easy deal.

I found myself in trouble once again. I contacted David after looking through avvo. I went in with realistic goals and David helped me achieve what I wanted. Communication is a big deal when dealing with your lawyer. Just like most people i had alot of question and concerns throughout the whole ordeal. David was very easy to get a hold of. He returned my calls and emails in a timely manner and his receptionist effectively relayed message when contact between David and myself was not possible. I would highly recommend David as an attorney.

I am generally a straight arrow, but after an unfortunate experience with local law enforcement, I needed a good defense lawyer.
I interviewed several other defense lawyers and quickly settled on Mr. Shapiro, for 3 reasons: 1) His knowledge and experience in the courtroom. 2) His ability to develop a strategy to ensure that no charges were filed. 3) His fees are reasonable and stated upfront.
Mr. Shapiro is a tenacious fighter for his clients. He thinks fast, talks fast, is very honest in his assessment, and vaguely resembles actor John Turturro. I found him to be honest in his business affairs, strategic in his methods, and very effective in resolving legal situations at the earliest stage possible. He is well supported by his staff (David M.), who explained the legal process to me, and patiently answered all of my questions.
Mr. Shapiro was successful in his efforts to ensure that no charges filed, and I began to sleep again. I hope I never need his services again, but I will always keep his number.

This review is long overdue but it would be right if I didn’t leave a positive note for David Shapiro. I retained as my criminal defense attorney back in early 2011. He was at that time a hot shot up and coming lawyer that was just started his on firm. I went to his office and the moment I sat down I just felt comfortable and confident in him that we worked out a payment plan that same day. I can only Imagine how his skills, knowledge, and talents have increased exponentially since we’ve worked together. And that’s the thing… we worked together! He is very informative and he gets back to you with the answers to your questions. He is very trustworthy and will put your mind at ease. I liked how he would give you a no BS assessment rather than telling you what you would like to hear. I had much success with David considering what I was up against. The bottom line, he will be among the elite Southern California attorneys and I’m sure you will not be disappointed.

David Shapiro is an outstanding criminal defense attorney. I came to his office helpless and scared. However, within minutes of sitting down and talking with him, my mind was put at ease. From that day on, for almost 3 years he fought for me every step of the way. The thing I appreciated the most was how honest and straightforward he was with me about everything. He was realistic about the situation and was relentless in obtaining the best possible outcome for my circumstances. He promptly addressed all my questions and concerns. He took the time to thoroughly explain the court process to me. I was always treated with kindness and respect by him and his staff. I will be truly forever grateful for his tireless efforts to protect my freedom and reputation. Trust me, if you need a excellent criminal defense attorney, call David Shapiro. You won’t regret it… I certainly don’t.

I had the opportunity to view Mr Shapiro’s work from the perspective of the jury. As a person with no experience selecting a lawyer I can say that if I were ever in the position (here’s hoping not though), I would likely call upon Mr. Shapiro.
I found him to be professional and passionately vested in the case he was defending. He is a very astute lawyer and was very quick to defend his client against any misrepresentations of fact.
If you are in the market for a defense attorney, I’d say he is your guy!
