Lawyer Profile
When the system feels stacked against you – when an insurance company is lowballing your claim, when a criminal charge threatens everything you’ve built, when a traffic ticket is about to cost you far more than the fine – you don’t just need a lawyer. You need someone who will fight like it’s their own name on the line.
That’s exactly how Igor A. Shapiro approaches every case.
Igor founded Shapiro Law on a simple but uncompromising belief: every person deserves the full attention of a skilled, experienced attorney – not a paralegal, not a form letter, not a rushed settlement that serves no one but the other side. He built this firm to be the answer to a system that too often leaves ordinary people without a real voice.
The credentials are there. Igor graduated cum laude from Seattle University School of Law, where he earned first place in the Law School’s Mediation and Negotiation Competition and held an executive leadership position in its Alternative Dispute Resolution program. He trained alongside Washington’s top plaintiffs’ firms through the Washington State Association for Justice Trial Advocacy Fellowship – a program that selects only the most promising advocates. He clerked for a federal judge. He has been recognized as an Elite Lawyer and named to Super Lawyers – distinctions reserved for the top tier of the profession.
But credentials alone don’t win cases. Preparation and relentlessness do.
Igor practices across Washington State – King, Pierce, Snohomish counties and beyond – handling personal injury, wrongful death, criminal defense, and traffic infractions at every level, from municipal courts to Superior Court. He is a member of the Washington State Association for Justice, the American Association for Justice, The National Trial Lawyers, and both the King County and Tacoma-Pierce County Bar Associations.
What sets Igor apart isn’t a wall of plaques. It’s that he picks up the phone. He knows your name. He tells you the truth about your case – even when it’s hard – and then builds the strongest possible strategy to put you in the best position to win. Clients describe him as someone who “helped save my life.” Someone who “did exactly what he promised.” Someone who makes the process “smooth” and gives you “confidence that everything will be handled the best way possible.”
That’s not marketing. That’s a track record.
If you’re facing an insurance company that wants to pay you as little as possible, a prosecutor trying to take something from you, or a ticket that could cost you thousands – Igor A. Shapiro is ready to go to work.
Results matter. That’s not a slogan. It’s the standard.
