Avoid Family Lawyer Eric Shapiro
To call this attorney a shyster would be an insult to shysters everywhere. Eric Shapiro has no office rather he works out of a shared co-working space. He has no associates.
He was cited by the Georgia Bar and promised to hire employees to help manage his disorganization. I hired him as a cheaper alternative to the "Atlanta family law mafia" but in the end I got exactly what I paid for.
When we got to the court, the judge called him within the first five minutes of opposing counsel's opening arguments because he was texting.
Here's an excerpt from the transcript. You decide who is telling the truth.
THE COURT: MR. SHAPIRO, ARE WE BORING YOU?
SHYSTER SHAPIRO: NO, YOUR HONOR. I'M JUST TAKING A NOTE FOR, ... INVESTIGATING SOMETHING (OPPOSING COUNSEL) MENTIONED. NOT AT ALL.
THE COURT: GO AHEAD.
Again, this was within five minutes of the hearing starting and opposing counsel walking through the petition - that Eric Shapiro actually remembered to bring.
Read the reviews ... you can tell the ones he wrote himself. He has many clients that have had the same issues over the years since he was sanctioned by the state bar.

Eric is a fantastic attorney. He has helped me get through contempt hearings and a child support modification with great results. He's fair and will not run up the bill. I trust him completely.

Do not trust this guy at all. He took advantage of me when I was going through a difficult time in my life and did not understand how the law works. He's resorted to writing his own five star reviews. He will ask you for your income and then base his retainer on what you say or how much he can get out of you. He will then start over charging you until your retainer is depleted. He did not help me in my court issue at all and made it worse (please contact me if you want to know more details). As others have said, check out the reviews with the bar and go somewhere else. There are plenty of better lawyers in Atlanta/Dunwoody who will not take advantage of you.

Best closing attorney we've experienced. Just had to have Sam' Maguire's office pull up info on a two year old closing to clear up problems with a current closing and they did it in minutes.

I highly recommend The Law Office of Sam Maguire. The support staff that Sam Maguire has assembled to assist buyers and sellers is phenomenal...so efficient and professional. I will continue to use Sam for all of my real estate needs.

I have worked with Sam Maguire's office for the last 19 years and I highly recommend them for Real Estate transactions. The staff is knowledgeable and very helpful which makes what can be a stressful time for buyers and borrowers a little less stressful. I have worked with other firms and find that the quality of service that Sam offers is far beyond the others.

I have used Sam Maguire for my clients as well as my own personal real estate closings. Very professional and friendly staff! They always go the extra mile to make sure your transaction is handled properly and in a timely manner. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my closings.

Thank you Colin Johnson for your review. Because of your review, I requested and looked at my seller's closing statement. There was $265 fee, which I was able to get rid of by calling.
