Updated review. I cannot stress to anybody reading this enough: who you hire matters and you get what you pay for. Attorney’s have case after case slide across their desk. It’s a job at the end of the day to most. If Aaron Shapiro or the force that is Amanda Schaffer takes your case, TRUST THEM. Full disclosure: I am a nightmare client. On a scale from 1-10, I’m an 11 in terms of annoying. My son is my absolute world. I have been a “white pony” more times than you can imagine. Over-billed. None of it made sense. Those attorneys cared about a paycheck. Aaron and Amanda are not only EXCELLENT attorneys, they’re good people. They have a backbone. Their time is valuable. They’re not cheap. Know that. When your child, freedom, or immigration status is on the line — don’t put it in the hands of someone who treats you like a file. The legal progress is exhausting (mentally and financially — I know it all too well.) It’s unfair. Read that again.
No attorney should ever promise you a victory. Here’s what this random stranger who’s been put through the wringer for 3 years can promise you first hand — this firm cares and they’re your best shot.

He had me sign the retainer, pay almost $7000 and disappeared. He did not show up in court saying I still had to sign a form. I never received said form and he stopped answering altogether. I cannot believe he would do this to families in need of help.

I'm not one to typically write reviews, but my experience with Amanda Shaffer from The Shapiro Law Firm was truly exceptional and warranted sharing.
I had the pleasure of working with Amanda on my immigration case, and I must say, she exceeded my expectations in every way. Her professionalism, expertise, and dedication to her clients are truly exceptional.
Unfortunately, my case was previously mishandled by another lawyer, who failed to properly file my application, leading to potential denial. However, Amanda Shaffer stepped in and quickly turned things around. She was frustrated by the mistakes made by my previous lawyer and immediately took action to combat their response.
Amanda's expertise and knowledge of immigration law are impressive. She took the time to understand my situation, answered all my questions, and provided clear guidance throughout the complex immigration process. Her attention to detail and ability to navigate intricate immigration laws with ease are truly remarkable.
What impressed me most was Amanda's proactive approach to resolving my case. She identified solutions and opportunities that I hadn't considered and worked tirelessly to ensure a successful outcome. Her dedication and commitment to her clients are unparalleled.
I also valued Amanda's empathetic and understanding nature, which made a difficult and stressful situation more manageable. Her kindness, patience, and willingness to listen made me feel heard and validated.
I highly recommend Amanda Shaffer and The Shapiro Law Firm to anyone seeking a skilled, reliable, and empathetic immigration lawyer. Amanda is a true asset to her profession, and I feel fortunate to have had her by my side during a challenging time.
Thank you, Amanda, for your outstanding service, support, and dedication. You truly made a difference in my life and helped me achieve my immigration goals, despite the mistakes of my previous lawyer!

I can’t say Thank You enough to this law firm and Eric Winnert! We live approximately 5 hours from the office and Eric came to our home to get the much needed paperwork signed by my very ill spouse for a mesothelioma law suit. Poor man had to drive through the snow belt in February just to make sure we got what was needed before anything happened. Whenever I have questions and need to contact him, he is always there to give me answers. He has walked me step by step through every part of the process as my spouse was terminal and passed. Even when I haven’t bothered him in awhile, he will shoot me a text with any needed updates on our case! He’s very caring, empathetic , and personable with his clients and their family! No matter what we threw at him he always had a smile and a chuckle while maintaining his professionalism! Great Job Eric and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you have done and continue to do for me.

I became a client of Hurwitz Whitcher & Malloy in November of 2020 due to injuries I sustained transporting equipment to Work from Home during the pandemic on April 7, 2020. I already have a disability, born missing my left limb & no joint in my right thumb. After trying to fight compensation on my own, they consistently denied every procedure that was being requested to get me back to work, my doctor’s office suggested that I get a lawyer.
I was referred Hurwitz Whitcher & Malloy by a friend. My first contact was Patricia Hagerty, my anxiety was so high that I couldn’t even complete a sentence. I felt crazy, scared & embarrassed. She took my information & said someone would get back to me. She also, assured me that everything would be ok, try to relax & not think about his.
Karen Small handled my case & she kept me up to date on the process step by step. If there was something I did not understand, she would explain until I did. After hard work & dedication, delays, setbacks, we won July 2024.
I had trouble getting my medications, so I spoke with Sam Firestein concerning this matter. Within an hour, the issues were resolved & he followed the next week up to make sure I received the medication as scheduled & that everything was ok.
Kate Malloy handled Social Security on my behalf, job well-done.
From my first encounter with your firm until today, I felt like the team cared. I am entirely satisfied with the way this firm has treated me, they showed compassion, cares, concerns & handled every aspect of my case in a personal & professional manner. This whole process was confusing & at times I was very upset, sick in my mind & body, but this firm saved the day. Sometimes thank you doesn’t seem to be enough, but I truly thank you for all you have done for me. Thank you for assisting me through this plight over the past 4 years of my life & in the future. I was assured that I was with the best compensation attorneys & that is a true statement.
I highly recommend this firm, if you are an injured worker, don’t try to fight them alone, don’t hesitate to contact Hurwitz, Whitcher & Malloy, they helped me every step of the way, & they’ll take care of you too. I am indeed a satisfied client; I feel like I’m a part of the family.

Alfred is one of the best lawyers we’ve ever known. When I came to him I was frustrated after hiring another firm initially to file a lien against a former client. After many months of the other attorney asking for money all the time, (even for a phone call to clarify an invoice), not showing progress or honest interest in our case, we decided to switch gears.
On our research we spoke to plenty of lawyers and firms, and all we were getting was high retainers and advices to not keep fighting. When we were about to give up we found Alfred and we liked his background and experience so we decided to give him a call.
During the phone call he took the time to ask many questions to be able to understand our case and gave us a lot of hope that our case was strong. When explained to him that we have spent a lot already and seemed like we were going to a dead end, he came up with an Incredibly affordable price which clearly he did to helped us get through this, we immediately signed retainer.
After Alfred took our case we have been granted all our requests and motions and our case is going to the right direction. His professionalism, attention to detail and excellent litigation skills combined with his good heart makes him the right choice.
I highly recommend him to businesses and persons who need to solve any legal matter or need legal Advice.

Please do yourself a favor and STAY AWAY from Alfred Constant from Constants Law offices, He is literally a scammer!
First red flag is that he uses a personal email. I have never met any attorneys that didn’t have a professional email, he literally using a Gmail account. And then he would always do this evil laughter when I was having a serious discussion about my case, because he knew all along he was scamming me and I trusted him.
In addition I paid this man nearly $4K because I was scammed by Google and a company name reckon media, also known as wiki expert, they have been scamming people for more than decade and they have run ADs on many fake websites on Google.
Alfred took months to serve them. The first time it was unsuccessful, the second time, I spoke to the scammer myself, I pretended I wanted to use their business and I could only mail them a check for their service.
The scammer gave me his actual address. Alfred once again took months to serve him and I had a feeling he reached out to the scammer and told him he was about to get served, because once again serving them the sermon was unsuccessful. And the postal service Alfred used litteraly took 2 months to serve them, which is ridiculous they took that long especially when we were trying to catch them.
So now we were only working with Google, we went to court, I tried to give Alfred additional evidence I found about my case, He refused to use it and then the case got dismissed.
So I reached out about appealing the case, he of course asked me for money and yes the fee way more then what I already paid. He then revealed to me there was a law that was passed 15-20 years ago that stated if you are scammed by a platform like Google they would not be responsible and the court would ruled in their favor.
So I asked him, why would you take on my case If there’s a law that favors them, he said “ I thought we had a good shot”. When I told him as an attorney he should not take on someone’s case if he didn’t feel like it was strong enough, and he literally scammed me.
He tried to flabbergasted me as if he was the one who was scammed by the scammer, google and his law firm, and then He hang up on me.
Remember Alfred Constant Mother Karma never sleeps!
Lastly I want to add, if you are ever looking for anything such as a business on google and it says sponsored, please DO NOT CLICK on it. 10/10 it’s scammers running Ads on google and no google does not verified and there’s a law that favors them. Please don’t be another victim of online scamming.

I hired Matthew after my former boss refused to provide me with my last paycheck.
I was able to get back the last paycheck PLUS money that I didn’t even know I was entitled to and penalties against my former employer!
Matthew was great at explaining all of my options and following up on my case!
Hands down the best attorney I have ever hired!

My aunt hired him when she was having a problem with her tenants on a house that she intended to sell. Matthew acted upon it promptly, smoothly and efficiently without incurring further costs on my aunt’s side. He always answers her questions and responds very quickly as he value the essence of time as regards her situation. I highly recommend him if you are seeking a Landlord/tenant Lawyer. He is really great and charges a reasonable amount unlike others. Thanks Matthew for a job well done!

Mr.Tanner was my attorney at a very scary time. I was facing up to 10 years in prison for being
involved with wrong people. I was very lucky that he took my case. Howard Tanner is very well respected in his sphere, he knows ins and outs of the system with over 35 years of experience not just as an attorney, but as a prosecutor as well. He treated me with consideration and courtesy. He made me feel mattered! I am very grateful that he was on my side during this horrendous experience giving me his guidance. I feel it’s also important to have someone who has patience to return your calls and emails, explain the process, timeline and manage expectations.
My case ended up being dismissed. I am thankful for every minute I have now as a free person.
I would refer Howard Tanner to anyone who find themselves in a dire situation. Good luck!

If you are looking for a lawyer who combines expertise, professionalism, and genuine care for their clients, look no further. I am extremely grateful for Seth Rosenfeld and would recommend him to anyone in need of legal services.
In addition, I have to mention Seth Rosenfeld’s secretary, Teresa, who is truly one of a kind. She’s always professional, patient, happy, and caring. Teresa consistently goes above and beyond to assist in every way possible, making the entire process so much smoother and more manageable. Her warm and helpful attitude makes a world of difference, and she’s a true asset to the team.

My husband and I bought a property in NYC using Mina Kennedy as our attorney. We were given her name by my son who had purchased an apartment two years earlier in the city. He said that Mina was the best part of his experience. We discovered the same. She is a talented and knowledgeable real estate attorney that really had our backs. When things got complicated with problems in the building, she made sure we knew what was going on and the potential for future assessments. When the sellers wanted an all-cash offer, we held tight with her help and completed the deal with the mortgage intact. She responded quickly to all our inquiries and reacted quickly to the realtors and the sellers’ attorney when we needed her to do so. She is whip-smart and utterly reliable. Although I have bought and sold a number of properties in two other states prior to this experience we discovered NYC real estate is an animal all its own. We needed a great attorney and we got one. Thank you, Mina!

Just WOW!!! Amazing. I had the privilege of working with Alberto Ebanks, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Unlike other lawyers, he did not try to sell me himself from our first call. From the moment he examined my case, it was clear he is incredibly knowledgeable, precise, and straightforward. His military background shines through in his disciplined approach—he took the time to analyze every detail and explain the process clearly, without ever needing to sell himself. What truly impressed me was his determination to go above and beyond. He didn’t just settle for the bare minimum; he fought for the best possible outcome, one I didn’t even think was an option for my case. If you’re looking for a lawyer who is not only understanding but also committed to achieving exceptional results, Alberto Ebanks is the person to trust. I will be recommending him to all my contacts in search of legal representation. Thank you, Alberto

From the moment he examined my case, it was clear he is incredibly knowledgeable, precise, and straightforward. His military background shines through in his disciplined approach—he took the time to analyze every detail and explain the process clearly, without ever needing to sell himself. What truly impressed me was his determination to go above and beyond. He didn’t just settle for the bare minimum; he fought for the best possible outcome, one I didn’t even think was an option for my case. If you’re looking for a lawyer who is not only understanding but also committed to achieving exceptional results, Alberto Ebanks is the person to trust. I will be recommending him to all my contacts in search of legal representation. Thank you, Alberto

Updated review. I cannot stress to anybody reading this enough: who you hire matters and you get what you pay for. Attorney’s have case after case slide across their desk. It’s a job at the end of the day to most. If Aaron Shapiro or the force that is Amanda Schaffer takes your case, TRUST THEM. Full disclosure: I am a nightmare client. On a scale from 1-10, I’m an 11 in terms of annoying. My son is my absolute world. I have been a “white pony” more times than you can imagine. Over-billed. None of it made sense. Those attorneys cared about a paycheck. Aaron and Amanda are not only EXCELLENT attorneys, they’re good people. They have a backbone. Their time is valuable. They’re not cheap. Know that. When your child, freedom, or immigration status is on the line — don’t put it in the hands of someone who treats you like a file. The legal progress is exhausting (mentally and financially — I know it all too well.) It’s unfair. Read that again.
No attorney should ever promise you a victory. Here’s what this random stranger who’s been put through the wringer for 3 years can promise you first hand — this firm cares and they’re your best shot.

He had me sign the retainer, pay almost $7000 and disappeared. He did not show up in court saying I still had to sign a form. I never received said form and he stopped answering altogether. I cannot believe he would do this to families in need of help.

I'm not one to typically write reviews, but my experience with Amanda Shaffer from The Shapiro Law Firm was truly exceptional and warranted sharing.
I had the pleasure of working with Amanda on my immigration case, and I must say, she exceeded my expectations in every way. Her professionalism, expertise, and dedication to her clients are truly exceptional.
Unfortunately, my case was previously mishandled by another lawyer, who failed to properly file my application, leading to potential denial. However, Amanda Shaffer stepped in and quickly turned things around. She was frustrated by the mistakes made by my previous lawyer and immediately took action to combat their response.
Amanda's expertise and knowledge of immigration law are impressive. She took the time to understand my situation, answered all my questions, and provided clear guidance throughout the complex immigration process. Her attention to detail and ability to navigate intricate immigration laws with ease are truly remarkable.
What impressed me most was Amanda's proactive approach to resolving my case. She identified solutions and opportunities that I hadn't considered and worked tirelessly to ensure a successful outcome. Her dedication and commitment to her clients are unparalleled.
I also valued Amanda's empathetic and understanding nature, which made a difficult and stressful situation more manageable. Her kindness, patience, and willingness to listen made me feel heard and validated.
I highly recommend Amanda Shaffer and The Shapiro Law Firm to anyone seeking a skilled, reliable, and empathetic immigration lawyer. Amanda is a true asset to her profession, and I feel fortunate to have had her by my side during a challenging time.
Thank you, Amanda, for your outstanding service, support, and dedication. You truly made a difference in my life and helped me achieve my immigration goals, despite the mistakes of my previous lawyer!

What an Insurance Lawyer Can Do for You
An insurance lawyer specializes in legal issues related to insurance policies and claims. These lawyers help individuals, businesses, and insurance companies navigate disputes involving insurance coverage, claim denials, bad faith claims, and policy interpretation. Insurance lawyers can represent policyholders who feel they've been unfairly denied coverage, or they can work on behalf of insurance companies to defend against fraudulent or inflated claims.
Whether you're filing a claim, disputing a denial, or dealing with complex coverage issues, an insurance lawyer can provide critical guidance and legal representation to protect your rights and ensure you receive the benefits you're entitled to under your policy.
When Should I Hire an Insurance Lawyer?
Hiring an insurance lawyer is advisable in several situations, particularly when disputes arise over insurance coverage, claim denials, or bad faith actions. Common reasons to hire an insurance lawyer include:
- Denied insurance claims: If your insurance company denies your claim, a lawyer can help determine whether the denial was justified or if you should challenge the decision.
- Bad faith insurance practices: If you believe your insurer has acted in bad faith, such as delaying payment or failing to properly investigate your claim, a lawyer can help you pursue legal action.
- Underpaid claims: If the insurance company has offered less compensation than you believe your claim is worth, a lawyer can negotiate for a higher payout or file a lawsuit.
- Coverage disputes: When there's ambiguity or disagreement about what your policy covers, a lawyer can provide clarity and advocate for your rights under the policy.
- Business insurance claims: If you own a business and are dealing with commercial insurance claims (e.g., property damage, liability, or professional indemnity), a lawyer can help ensure your business receives proper coverage.
- Third-party claims: If you're being sued for liability and your insurance company refuses to defend or indemnify you, an insurance lawyer can help enforce your coverage rights.
- Appealing long-term disability claims: If your disability insurance claim has been denied, a lawyer can assist in gathering evidence and appealing the decision to get the benefits you deserve.
What Does an Insurance Lawyer Do?
An insurance lawyer provides a wide range of services to assist with insurance-related legal issues. These can include:
- Reviewing insurance policies: A lawyer can review your insurance policy to ensure you understand your rights and obligations, as well as clarify what coverage is provided.
- Filing insurance claims: Assisting with the preparation and filing of claims to ensure all necessary documentation is submitted correctly.
- Challenging claim denials: If your claim has been denied, a lawyer can investigate the reasons for denial and file appeals or lawsuits to challenge the decision.
- Litigating bad faith claims: Representing clients in bad faith insurance cases, where the insurer fails to act in good faith by unfairly delaying, denying, or underpaying a valid claim.
- Negotiating settlements: Helping policyholders negotiate settlements with insurance companies to receive fair compensation for claims.
- Defending against fraudulent claims: Representing insurance companies to defend against false or exaggerated claims filed by policyholders or third parties.
- Handling disputes over policy language: Interpreting complex insurance policies and resolving disputes between the insured and the insurer regarding coverage limits, exclusions, and conditions.
How Are Insurance Lawyers Paid?
Insurance lawyers typically charge for their services in different ways, depending on the nature of the case and the type of insurance issue involved. Common payment structures include:
- Contingency fee: For many policyholders disputing claim denials or underpayments, lawyers work on a contingency basis. This means the lawyer only gets paid if they win or settle the case, taking a percentage (usually between 25% and 40%) of the recovered amount.
- Hourly rate: For more complex or ongoing legal issues, such as bad faith lawsuits or business insurance disputes, insurance lawyers may charge an hourly rate. This rate varies depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
- Flat fee: For simpler matters, such as reviewing an insurance policy or helping file a claim, some lawyers charge a flat fee for their services.
- Retainer: For businesses or clients with ongoing legal needs, an insurance lawyer may require a retainer fee, which is an upfront payment for future services.
It’s important to clarify the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to avoid unexpected costs.
How Much Does an Insurance Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring an insurance lawyer depends on the complexity of the case, the lawyer's experience, and the payment structure. General cost estimates include:
- Contingency fees: If your lawyer works on a contingency fee basis, you won’t pay any fees upfront, but the lawyer will take a percentage (typically 25% to 40%) of any settlement or judgment awarded.
- Hourly rates: Hourly rates for insurance lawyers generally range from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location. Complex cases involving bad faith or high-value business claims may require significant hours, leading to higher legal costs.
- Flat fees: For specific services, such as reviewing an insurance policy, lawyers may charge a flat fee ranging from $500 to $2,500, depending on the complexity of the task.
- Retainers: Businesses or individuals seeking ongoing insurance legal services may pay a retainer, which can range from $5,000 to $20,000 or more, depending on the lawyer and scope of work.
Make sure to discuss costs and payment structures with your lawyer before proceeding to understand how much the services will cost.
Top Questions to Ask an Insurance Lawyer
Before hiring an insurance lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask:
-
What experience do you have with insurance law?
Ensure the lawyer has specific experience handling cases involving your type of insurance, whether it’s auto, health, home, or business-related. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer works on contingency, hourly rates, or flat fees, and ask for an estimate of the total cost of your case. -
What is your success rate with insurance disputes?
Ask about the lawyer’s track record in winning or settling cases similar to yours. -
What are my chances of success?
A good lawyer will provide an honest assessment of your case’s strengths and weaknesses and outline the possible outcomes. -
How long will the process take?
Get an estimate of how long it will take to resolve your claim or dispute, as some cases can extend over months or even years. -
Will you handle my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle some aspects of your case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case.
How to Check the Credibility of an Insurance Lawyer
To ensure you’re hiring a reputable insurance lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and experience:
- Verify their state bar license: Check with your state bar association to confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
- Review their experience in insurance law: Look at the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in insurance law and have experience with cases like yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Search for reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s expertise and professionalism.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have dealt with similar insurance issues.
- Check for industry memberships: Membership in organizations like the American Bar Association’s Tort Trial and Insurance Practice Section (TIPS) can indicate the lawyer’s focus on insurance law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with an insurance lawyer, come prepared with the following documents and information:
- A copy of your insurance policy: Bring the policy related to your claim or dispute so the lawyer can review the coverage details.
- Any correspondence with the insurance company: Provide copies of letters, emails, or other communications between you and your insurer regarding the claim or denial.
- Proof of claim and supporting documents: Bring any documentation you have submitted with your claim, including receipts, invoices, photos, medical records, or repair estimates.
- List of questions: Prepare a list of questions you want to ask about your case, the legal process, and the potential outcomes.
- Timeline of events: Be ready to provide a clear timeline of the incident that led to the claim and any steps you’ve taken with your insurance company.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can ensure that the lawyer has all the information they need to assess your case and provide the best legal advice.
