Jonathan Shapiro did a great job working for us. He helped us with a complicated and emotional matter. He was able to represent our corporation effectively and ethically despite the fact that our own management was divided over strategy. Our counterparty intentionally created a chaotic situation. Mr. Shapiro was able to provide clear and concise analysis of the situation and zealously advocated for the interests of our company. Mr. Shapiro earned our respect and gratitude.

Jonathan Shapiro is one of the most knowledgeable and responsive attorneys with whom I have ever had the privilege of working. He demonstrates his mastery of labor and employment law on a daily basis. However, in addition to providing clear and concise answers to legal questions, he also provides creative and practical solutions to complex business challenges. Jonathan is more than just a legal resource to our business; he is a trusted partner and advisor.

We use Jonathan Shapiro on all types of human resources matters. Jon is very knowledgeable of all aspects of employment law. He provides excellent guidance and coaching to us when we have situations in which we have little experience. He can succinctly describe the company's defensive objectives and strategy and explain how plaintiffs and judges will view our positions. Above all, Jon is available; he doesn't pass us off to subordinates. Bottom line: We always think to call Jon whenever we have a sticky employment issue.

Our Company is a small publicly traded medical device manufacturer, which operates primarily in the U.S. and Canada. On an ongoing basis we deal with several law firms for our particular needs. Mr. Shapiro's support for our Company has ranged from employment issues to supplier contract negotiations. At all times, Mr. Shapiro has proven to be extremely knowledgeable, and efficient to work with. John is always mindful of the most cost-effective manner to deal with an issue. I wish I could say the same for the other firms we work with.
