I have no words to describe my gratitude for Melanie Shapiro. After consulting with numerous lawyers, I finally got to know Melanie and her work. She was the solution I was looking for. Melanie was attentive, dedicated, and competent in every step of my case. And best of all, after 22 years of waiting, she delivered the result no other lawyer had achieved my approval. If you are looking for a good lawyer, don't waste more time looking. Melanie Shapiro is the best attorney in greater Boston, without a doubt.
Law Office of Melanie Shapiro, I thank you very much for your help, advice and support during the renewal process of my green card. Attorney Shapiro thank you isn't enough for me to tell you, it took a while with my case but you had the patience with my case and advice me all along. Thank you for also giving me a very flexible payment plan that was also very convenient for me to pay for your legal services. One thing that I will never forget is during my case there was a time that you had to file for some paper work and when I met with you at your office to sign the paper work I had to pay you for the filling fee but during that time I was out of work because of depression due to some personal problems I was going through but you didn't ignore me because I didn't have money at that time to pay you, you said to me, you will pay for me and then you will add it to my bill. Thank you isn't enough to say to you Melanie, I do appreciate your help,time and advice with my case. Also I know you worked with a team which I met and also spoke with some of them on the phone, I thank all of your team that help with my case. God bless you all.
