He also previously served on the Board of Directors of the Playa Venice Rotary Foundation. His commitment to the law does not stop there.
Mr. Shapiro has not only dedicated his career to serving the needs of his clients, but he is also looking for ways to further his abilities and to do more his community. For this reason, he is proud to announce that he has received the Wiley W.
