Upon meeting with Myra, I felt so calm. I felt welcomed. Invited. She was not judgemental. I spoke to her on a Friday and she made time for me on Monday to meet. She spent over two hours with me listening and then answering my questions. She's so knowledgeable, so she made sure to explain everything. She's right there in the heart of Queens by the Courts, so she's on the front lines dealing with Family Courts. She validated a lot of my questions and I felt very informed, confident. I consulted her and then hired her. I wouldn't be able to do this paperwork, it's so confusing even though she explained to me how to if I chose to not go with her. She always checked on me and followed up on my calls and messages promptly. Understand, she is a working lawyer, in the courts - so for her to be so responsive when I knew how busy she was in the courts as well, I was so impressed. Kind, thorough and favorable outcome for me. Eternally grateful for her expertise. I feel very lucky to have found her, like a needle in a haystack.

I have no regret using Mrs Myra E. Shapiro when I was going through my divorce. Myra stood by my side and fought my case for me all the way. Even when my case seemed bleeky she fought for my justice. Also, the amount of work she put in and an affordable cost was surprising to me. At times when I needed advise and had no one to turn to I would call Myra and she would encourage me positively. Thank you again for standing by my side Myra I really appreciate the love you have for your job and your clients. I highly recommend Mr. Myra E. Shapiro to persons who are looking for a good attorney. I rate her a 5 plus stars!!

After 2 years (COVID) I walked out of the court house with sole legal and physical custody. I also walked out with a strength , confidence and determination to be the best mother and woman I can be for my daughter. All thanks to Myra Shapiro. She listened to me, supported me and fought hard for me and my daughter’s safety and well being. She answered all my emails, txt and phone calls even the ones where I was spinning with fear, doubt and asking a bunch of questions. She took the time to answer them and counsel me, that is not really part of her job, in my opinion. She showed me compassion and tough love and it’s exactly what I needed to have the strength to keep going and fighting for my rights. Myra was honest and I learned a lot on how to protect myself, legally and emotionally. During trial if there was something that I wanted brought up because it meant a lot to me and she also believed it would benefit my case, she would do it. I’m so blessed to have had her fighting for me. What she gave me was invaluable. If anybody I know is going to family court I would most definitely recommend Myra Shapiro.

Mrs. Shapiro was recommended to me by a good friend. He spoke very highly of her and after meeting her I could see why he highly recommended her. She was very professional, knowledgeable and dependable. She even drove from Queens County to Suffolk County for my court case. She was able to get me a favorable outcome and honestly for the fee she charged I was very pleased. I’ve been to other attorney who wanted double what she charged, which I could not afford but I am very pleased with the outcome of my case. I would definitely recommend her to my family and friends.

Working with Myra, she has been very helpful, supportive and professional during my time of need. My case was not easy & she made it a priority to fight for me and seek what was right. I will forever be grateful and thankful for all her knowledge and support. I never had any issues getting a hold of her, she was always attentive and helpful in any way she can. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs strong representation.

After the passing of my brother from Covid in 2020 (he had full custody of his teenage daughter) I was referred to Ms Shapiro ,. It couldn’t have been a better choice. Extremely anxious and nervous about proceeding with the guardianship hearing for my niece against her biological mother. Ms Shapiro councelled me and comforted me at every turn, and that’s saying a lot because this custody battle lasted for almost 3 years! It was amazing having her on my side, and it was probably the best decision that I had ever made, because I finally won the Guardianship for my niece against her biological mother and that is not an easy thing to do. I can’t say how much I appreciated her during this time and would prefer her to anyone and everyone who’s looking for somebody to help them. She is the one to go to.!

Hired for family case, had to fire her. She was difficult to get a hold of, never let me express my concerns for my son. I felt like She was representing my ex husband more than me. I would absolutely nit recommend her and obvious not use her again.
