Mr. Shamis was very knowledgeable and has been practicing law for over thirty years. He was not willing to take a quick settlement and would not back down from the insurance company. He was personable and I felt he really cared about me as a person. My wife had retained him years ago and he offered a discount on his fee. His secretary is kind, professional and diligent. She is always willing to talk about my concerns and answer questions. She is an asset to Mr. Shamis.
