possible brake problem and shaking car

my brakes grind and squeal, makes all sorts of noises. the front rotors were replaced last year along with the pads. rear rotors were resurfaced. all done by a certified mechanic. we always go to him whenever we have major car problems and he does true honest good work. so either the brakes are bad or theres something else wrong. it also feels like it has minor warping when im going slow braking also. theres also this annoying repeating squeaking sound from the front driver side area that goes away only when i brake and come to a complete stop. if i tap on the brakes when im in motion it stops then comes back when i release the brake. gets on my nerves.
another problem is that my car shakes when im in D and off the brake. it also happens when im creeping up on the brakes. i dont have a cel.

any help would be great.

he put on OEM nissan pads.

i just looked at my rotors and it has lots of grooves in it. bad thing? most of it was under normal driving, maybe a few hard braking to avoid accidents but nothing drastic.
