“I came to hire your law firm because I had concerns about a former OBGYN and some medical procedures that had been done on me. And upon Mr. Shapiro looking over my medical records, he noticed that a couple of years prior, I had gotten my tubes tied. So Mr. Shapiro got some experts to look over my medical records to see if those procedures were medically necessary and to see if any of those complaints that were in my medical records were something actually that I even stated, which they were not.
The medical professional expert witness actually looked over my report, looked over my affidavit and afterwards he wrote a very long report on his findings and that he didn’t believe that the total misdirected me and the other procedures, surgeries afterwards were even necessary at all. And unfortunately I had to bring suit against my former OBGYN.
And they actually tried to get my case thrown out, citing statute of limitations on my case. I had to go before the judge and have a hearing shortly thereafter the judge rendered the decision that my case would not be thrown out and that she found me extremely credible. After the hearing, we had a lot of depositions that were coming up. My lawyer, Mr. Shapiro, was amazing. He was very, very amazing and very thorough.
I had never been through anything like this before, so he actually made sure that I was prepared and that I understood every question. He explained things to me so that I will understand them in layman terms. There also was a mediation that was set up. So my lawyer, Mr. Shapiro and I met with the other, you know, opposing counsel and tried to come up with a mediation.
Actually, about 60 days before trial, even though the mediation at that time didn’t work at first, Mr. Shapiro and his law firm was able to satisfy my case and settle my case, which was very satisfactory for me. It saved me a lot of time, a lot of hardship, and having to go through a long drawn out trial. Mr. Shapiro, from the very beginning, fought for me, fought for me when no one else would. Not only that, but his staff is also amazing, amazing.
His paralegal worked with me every step of the way. Like when I hired Mr. Shapiro in his law firm, like, you know, a lot was going on with COVID and all the other stuff, but that did not stop the work they did for me, you know, and I truly appreciate them. And I would highly recommend them to anyone. If you look up for somebody that’s going to be honest with you, that’s going to fight for you, that’s going to fight with you, this is definitely the law firm that I would definitely recommend to anybody.”
