Marriage is a wonderful thing. In the right circumstances, it can bring 2 parties together for the rest of their lives, helping them to live together in joy and peace. Of course, there's never any guarantee that a marriage will work out. Though many partners will do everything they can to ensure that their relationship lasts for as long as possible, there's always a risk that something could go wrong.

Although the statistics show that in New York only around 12.9 in every 1000 married people got a divorce in 2016, that doesn't necessarily mean that living in New York ensures your marriage won't end poorly. Unfortunately, people living in any state, or indeed anywhere in the world can still find themselves dealing with the complexity and heartache of a divorce.

While Mr. Shapiro's familiarity and proximity to the courts of Queens means that he's both a convenient and effective litigator for cases involving child custody and divorce, he can also offer his clients solutions that stay outside of the courtrooms too.
