"Donato's background, both in and out of the courtroom, makes him an exceptional addition to our team," said David Shapiro, founder of Shapiro Law Team. "His commitment to preparation, his competitive spirit and his dedication to clients align perfectly with our firm's mission."

Joining Giovanatto, Louis Hermida returns to Shapiro Law Team as an attorney after previously clerking with the firm during law school. Licensed in Arizona, Oregon and Washington, Hermida is committed to building meaningful relationships with clients and delivering thoughtful, approachable legal representation.

Hermida earned his Juris Doctor from the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law at Arizona State University and holds a bachelor's degree from New Mexico State University.
