I highly recommend Susan as a divorce attorney. When my divorce process was going nowhere and I had a little over a month before pre-trial, I decided to call Susan to represent me. I was nervous about firing an attorney that had already spent 10 months working on what should have been a very simple dissolution of marriage. I'm so glad I did fire my previous attorney because Susan got me to point where I was actually getting a fair settlement and we never went to trial. Susan set my mind as ease and explained to me the ins and outs of what was really going on in my case. My prior attorney never really took the time to explain anything to me and was about to let me settle for less than I deserved. Susan has a kind heart and will talk you through any issues or concerns you may be having. Again, I'm so glad I found her.

Susan was highly recommended to me back in 2015 as "One of the best Family Law Attorneys in St. Louis". Susan has now gotten me out of two failed marriages, and she was exceptional in both cases. I would highly recommend her legal expertise to anyone that needs a true legal tiger on their side and to have their back.
Susan's not only an outstanding attorney that knows the law (she's fair but firm), but she has become a great friend throughout the process! Thanks again, Susan! You truly are the best! I appreciate you!

Mr. Hauser represented me in a probate case. We obtained a favorable judgement at the trial court. Opposing party then appealed and was blown away at appeals court. Rob had an amazing command and recall of the facts and law of the case and clearly laid out my options for proceeding. His representation was thorough and efficient. I heartily recommend he and his team.

Jim did an EXCELLENT job representing my company in an ethics complaint we brought before the Arkansas Real Estate Association. He’s honest and knowledgeable—a true professional. He kept us well-informed throughout the case, making sure we had a thorough understanding of the entire process (and we were very pleased with the outcome!) If you’re in need of legal services, do yourself a favor--hire Jim. You won’t regret it!

A year and a half into a contentious custody dispute and acrimonious divorce, I met Neil Fredman and Ken Novenstern, attorneys at Fredman, Baken and Novenstern. During the most painful time of my life, I was finally in capable, compassionate hands.
Neil and Ken are not your typical lawyers. From the get go, they focused on doing the right thing. They have heart, and most definitely appreciated my situation. Despite the emotional turbulence of those months, working with them was a pleasure.
As I got to know them, I saw quickly how well they both know and understand the system. They have relationships with many of the judges, clerks, referees and staff in the White Plains Supreme and Family Court, so they just know how to handle every scenario and every surprise from the opposing side. Because of their understanding of the Westchester court system, things went smoothly from the beginning. Brilliant writers, they always impressed me with their comprehensive letters to the court and the opposing attorney. Nothing was left out of the letters and every time, they nailed it.
Neil and Ken had a special ability to support me through an immensely stressful period. Speaking to them felt like I was talking to friends, father figures in a way, who gave me trusted and wise counsel. Down to earth, easy-going and gracious, they are both just good people. You just get this positive feeling about people and with them, I felt it right away.
As experienced divorce attorneys, they know what to focus on. When the other side created distractions or said things to rile me up, they would reassure me that it wasn’t a big deal and not to worry. Facile in putting things into layman’s terms, they have a very direct, clear and real world communication style. They know what’s important and ultimately what matters most. During emotional custody and divorce battles, you need them on your side.
Honest, authentic, and intelligent, Neil and Ken kept my expectations in check. If I wanted to go after something, they would let me know if it was worth it, and if not, they would help me refocus my energy on what was truly essential.
Above all, Neil and Ken brought me results. Working with them got me a solid and fair financial agreement and custody agreement for my two children, who mean more to me than anything in the world.
After a year and a half of withstanding mean-spirited and demoralizing attacks by the opposing counsel in court, I am thankful that I finally found attorneys who ensured I was properly protected and fought for.
I am happy to have my divorce and custody battle behind me and am incredibly grateful for the stellar legal results I received. Neil and Ken understood my side of the story and fought for me, and won for all of us, including my two sons.
I recommend them at the highest level.

Neil Fredman represented me in my divorce/custody case in 1995. In the years since then I spoke of him often in the sharing of that story and I will again here, later.
But first let me say that 25 years later, Neil once again saved the day. In the face of coronavirus, I decided to take a lump sum payment of my pension plan. If I died, this pension plan did not allow for a non-spouse beneficiary – meaning my children could not inherit it. But I could take the lump sum and roll it into an IRA account, naming my children as beneficiary. We are talking about a couple hundred thousand dollars that if left within the pension and I died, would simply be absorbed by the pension plan. I desperately wanted to make sure that my kids would be able to inherit these funds.
The pension administrator required a copy of my divorce decree which neither I nor my Ex was able to locate. To get a copy from the Court, I’d have to go in-person to New York – from Florida, during coronavirus crisis.
I took a chance and emailed Neil Fredman. Neil emailed me a certified copy of my 25 year old divorce decree in just one day!!! Because of Neil, I am now the happy recipient of my lump sum pension plan distribution.
Of course, I thanked him profusely and took the opportunity to tell him how grateful I have always been for his sage advice way back in 1995. I reflected on my divorce scenario and Neil’s role and I’d like to take this opportunity to comment on that as well.
25 years ago, my Ex and I intended to resolve custody and divorce matters amicably. We had agreed on joint custody. I agreed to no alimony or child support because I earned more than him. We didn’t have much savings and didn’t own a home, so there wasn’t much to fight over.
Never-the-less, a blood-sucking divorce attorney sunk his teeth into my ex-husband and promised him sole custody and alimony, prompting the animosity and legal fees to pile up.
My first attorney was of a similar ilk. But a few days before a temporary custody hearing, he died of a brain aneurysm. I figured I was a great Mom so I went into court representing myself. I was not able to handle the procedural requirements of civil court, and I lost temporary custody of our kids. My heart was broken.
That was when I hired Neil Fredman. His reputation proceeded him. I had one chance to change the course of events in the trial for full custody. In truth, it never got that far. Neil reviewed the findings from Social Services- who found both of us quite suitable parents- and supported joint custody with the children living with me and generous visitation with their Dad.
Neil Fredman went to my Ex’s blood-sucking attorney and “encouraged” him to support the original proposal of joint custody, no alimony or child support. I later found out from my Ex that his attorney told him that while he could easily win against me, he would never be able to win against Neil Fredman.
With Neil at the helm, the case was quickly resolved through a Stipulation and Settlement Agreement. At the time, I thought Neil’s hourly rates were high – but in the end, well worth it. He NEVER tried to drag it out. He worked towards settling rather than going to trial.
I’m proud to say that ultimately, my Ex and I amicably co-parented. Our kids often said, “Why can’t you and Dad be like other divorced parents and not speak to each other?” – because we stood united in our parenting decisions and they couldn’t pit us against each other. It was Neil Fredman who paved the path to this end, and I have been eternally grateful to him ever since.
Now 25 years later, Neil once again resolved my problem quickly and effectively. Neil Fredman has integrity and consideration for what happens AFTER the divorce process is finalized with the goal of meeting the best interests of the children and the adults in the years that follow. He is a rare find in divorce law and I highly recommend him.

I was very fortunate to get Jayson as my lawyer. I went to jail on my original charge but jason was able to get a stay of execution and I'm currently fighting for my freedom from the streets. He has been more than a lawyer to me thru this experience. I would not only recommend him I would not use anyone else . He has kept me out of jail for over 18 months while we fight my now reopened case.

Jason Benzaken, stuck with me for almost 7 years fighting a battle that went all the way to the supreme court ( Troy J. SCHOELLER vs. BOARD OF REGISTRATION OF FUNERAL DIRECTORS AND EMBALMERS. SJC-10980. October 26, 2012. ). He believed in me and fought the good fight with me. He was always reliable, and it gave me confidence to know that he had my back through everything. He researched 100's of cases and backed all his creative arguments with solid legal facts. An amazing attorney and a good friend.

I was referred to Dan by another trusted attorney and thank goodness because I think it would be difficult to find the best just by going "to the phone book" aka online.
I've worked with Dan and his firm on a couple of family law occasions and he was highly responsive, professional, and overall very reasonable for the value provided. He didn't every abuse time or make you feel "on the clock" but rather worked efficiently to solve the issues at hand, and worked in a very good timeline for the results that I had hoped to accomplish. Highly recommend him and his firm for family law.

Any custody case can be difficult, but with a narcissist you will be in for one of the most painful, stressful and expensive rides of your life. I knew I needed the best. I chose Dan - after meeting with several attorneys - because he actively listened to my needs and wants and responded intelligently. He also didn’t just tell me what I wanted to hear. His view was informed and balanced. I knew, no matter how willing I was to compromise, I was in for a battle. I needed an attorney who would take the high road but would also be aggressive when need be. Dan is honest, seasoned and smart. I am extremely happy with my decision to work with him and with the job he has done representing me.
Dan zeroed in on the immediate significant issues for me and my small child, as well as the future I wanted to build for us. After many years of squabbling with a narcissist and getting lost in crazy-making circles of disagreement with no resolution, I needed a plan in writing that we both agreed to. I got that and I was pleased with it. It took a lot of negotiation (because the other side created barriers) but in the end it was well worth it.
Dan also did an excellent job of distinguishing the limits of the law. Many times he encouraged compromise where appropriate and he repeatedly encouraged me to only pursue what a judge would uphold. Throughout my case he was an advocate and helped me avoid court for some time. However, in the end, because of the other side, it was unavoidable. Dan was incredibly well prepared for the trial, and he did a phenomenal job. He argued fairly and intelligently; he is a quick thinker and he didn’t miss a beat. We were successful on every single issue. This outcome makes an enormous impact on my child’s life. I would definitely want to work with him in the future and I have already recommended him to friends and colleagues.
Dan has decades of experience. He is also empathetic and has fair billing practices. Top-notch professional and decent human.

I'm not writing this review after realizing how grateful and fortunate I am now that my legal crisis has finally ended. I am writing to give the sincerest appreciation I can for the tireless efforts given by Dan Margolin and his entire staff for defending me against the most hostile, untrue, dishonest, calculating and devious attacks that anyone should ever have to be exposed to in one lifetime, and I am not exaggerating. I have never met anyone with such legal acuity and intensity when called upon than from Dan Margolin. I was frequently surprised and honored as I witnessed his tangible defensive responses against opposing council at each turn. I've also witnessed many times when the judge and opposing council thanked Dan for his legal enlightenment which assured me that Dan is no common attorney. I strongly recommend that IF you want the very best, you want your hard-earned money well spent, and by luck Dan Margolin is available? Then look no further and consider yourself very well protected as I have.

I cannot express my gratitude enough for the exemplary legal representation provided by Attorney Ron Funk and his dedicated team. From the very beginning, their commitment to communication and excellence set them apart, earning my complete trust and satisfaction.
Attorney Funk demonstrated an unmatched level of expertise and professionalism throughout the entirety of my case. His ability to communicate complex legal matters in a clear and understandable manner was truly impressive. I always felt well-informed and confident in the strategy being pursued.
What truly sets Attorney Funk and his team apart is their unwavering dedication to their clients. They went above and beyond, investing time and effort to thoroughly understand the nuances of my case. Their commitment to my best interests was evident as they tirelessly worked to ensure that every detail was meticulously addressed.
The communication from the entire team was exceptional. I was kept informed at every stage of the legal process, and any questions or concerns I had were addressed promptly and with the utmost care. This level of transparency and responsiveness greatly alleviated the stress that often accompanies legal matters.
Most impressively, Attorney Funk and his team successfully navigated my case, ultimately resulting in its dismissal. Their commitment to achieving the best possible outcome was evident at every turn, and I am incredibly grateful for their hard work and dedication.
I wholeheartedly recommend Attorney Funk and his team to anyone seeking legal representation. Their commitment to excellence, effective communication, and willingness to go the extra mile make them unparalleled in their field. Thank you, Attorney Funk and team, for your outstanding service!

Words simply don’t do enough to express my genuine gratitude for Young and her Teams support in handling my husbands immigration case. We first connected with Young about a year ago to adjust my husband’s status as he overstayed his visa. I found Young through my legal insurance offered by my job with MetLife, Young acted quickly once we contacted her office and shared our love story and its legal challenges of immigration. Young became enthralled with our story and was confident that she could help us adjust my husband’s status, and assist with all applicable applications. Young is an expert Immigration Attorney! She is extremely efficient and knowledgeable, and helped us tremendously with all the immigration procedures. We had some interesting bumps along the way, not the fault of our wonderful attorney, but by USCIS itself. Young stood right beside us, literally and figuratively to ensure we understood all legal matters and future proceedings. It was an emotionally exhausting case since we had a surprising second interview, with too many complexities involved to understand, but Young and her team, along with their strategic thinking and bold advocacy helped us achieve a favorable outcome. In the height of political turmoil, this process was simply draining, and I mean real tears at times. Young instilled so much faith and reassurance in my husband and myself, we interviewed with confidence. Exceptional service and results is an understatement, I can go on and on, maybe even chapters! I’m beyond grateful, what a friend she has in me forever and beyond! Now we can travel, worry free and experience all the world has to offer together. Simply amazing, and highly recommend!

A couple of years ago, I found myself in a difficult employment-related situation, and needed legal advice. Knowing how important it was to have someone very competent, responsive, and personable, I started doing my homework. I researched the Internet, called and talked with tens of law firms and attorneys, read hundreds of reviews, and asked my network of friends and colleagues for referrals. At the end of this thorough search, I selected Mr. Robert L. Levi. During the approximately 18 months of collaboration that followed, I never regretted my choice.
In my opinion, Robert has the experience (over 30 years of work in the legal field), legal knowledge, and skills to help you with your case related to employment, labor relations, civil rights, or employee benefits. He also provides the personal attention to set your mind at ease and relieve (at the extent possible), the emotional, intellectual, and financial stress of legal work placed on your personal and professional life.
Deciding to sue someone is a scary thing. Mr. Levi helped me determine if taking legal action was appropriate for me; evaluated (and re-evaluated) the possible length and implications of the case; was very fair in the payment arrangement up front (no “surprises”); kept me informed right away of new developments; consulted with me on a regular basis; and answered my questions fully, every time I asked. He was realistic, truthful, diligent and ethical throughout the process.
During our collaboration on my case, he would send me regular updates, along with legal briefs of similar cases and respective rulings – in the eventuality I was interested to read (which I was, because it gave me context for my situation). When it was time to settle, we worked closely together to develop a strategy and accurately assess the compensation to which I was entitled.
Mr. Levi was compassionate, highly responsive, courteous, and kept his cool during some stressful interactions – all while subjecting our opponents to the full force his legal prowess.
What I liked the most about our collaboration, however, is that he treated me and my husband like family. Robert worked with me directly, rather than assigning parts of my case to less experienced or prepared collaborators. This assured stability and constant expertise for my case, in addition to giving me peace of mind that my legal misfortunes are in very good hands.
But since success is often defined by outcomes, I am happy to state that optimal results were achieved in my situation, proving Robert Levi is accountable, as well.
For all these, I highly recommend Mr. Robert L. Levi.

I highly recommend Robert L Levi.
Mr. Levi is sympathetic, understanding and knowledgeable when he decided to take my criminal appeal case. He is highly professional and informative from the beginning to the end. He is always well prepared for the case. After research and investigation, he changed the impossible to possible-- I got a very good result. I am very impressed with Mr. Levi's work.
I definitely recommend him to anyone.

We worked with Mark on a contract issues with a home builder and their in house lender. The mortgage company was blatantly violating the law and attempting to keep a large portion of our money that wasn't theirs. We were worried such a complex antitrust matter would take years to resolve... However, Mark met with us and provided a timely and in-dept analysis which clearly determined the lender was violating the law, allowing us the terminate the agreement immediately. The lender conceded and agreed to refund us. Having Mark saved us tens of thousands in up-front costs, not to mention over 100k in a predatory interest rate. Working in the legal field, I have worked with dozens of attorneys in the past. Mark is by far the most honest, responsive, and considerate attorney I've met.
He and his staff are incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and honest. I will be referring him to anyone who needs a contracts, litigation, or business law attorney!

My firm is a small business provider of IT services which had a service agreement with a large enterprise client. The client, in our opinion, breached the agreement and refused to pay the balance of the term. I hired a firm that I believed to be experienced in complex cases/contract law to file the complaint. After 9 months and spending tens of thousands of dollars with no satisfactory results, I terminated the original counsel. I posted my case with the Florida Bar Referral Service to find a trusted attorney. I connected with Mark Osherow of Osherow, PLLC. Mr. Osherow is a Florida Bar Board Certified Business Litigation Lawyer since 2006. Mr. Osherow took the time to fully understand the nuances and technicalities of our services and claims. The defendant originally made low offers to settle. In 5 months, Mr. Osherow and his team masterfully and successfully settled my case. I wholeheartedly recommend Osherow PLLC.

I've had 5 lawyers in my 10 year long family case. While Mr. Reiner is a criminal defense lawyer, he is a trial attorney first and foremost. He advocated for me like no other lawyer in over ten years, and he was aggressive while respectful given the sensitivity of my family's case, and it was clear even the magistrate was impressed at his professionalism, preparedness, and style of argument. I highly recommend him for any trial work whether civil or criminal: well-prepared, knowledgeable, excellent understanding of statutes and case law, always available for advice and guidance, and an excellent public speaker. I can only express my gratitude for his diligence.

Hired Treg to handle a case against a contractor. The case lasted over a year and went to arbitration. It was impressive to observe and watch Treg perfect his craft. His counsel and strategy were excellent. What was even more impressive was his level of preparation and skill in navigating the complexities of the case. It was not an easy case. The case resulted in our favor and we are very grateful for the expertise, skill and counsel of Treg.

If you want an amazing lawyer, this is the person you go to. Sven was able to defend me and win at trial, it was a totally amazing feeling to see the tears stop from my worried mothers eyes.

My first contact with Sven was in 2007. He has represented me on 2 different cases. From the beginning, I had extreme confidence in him & I knew he was just the attorney I needed & to hire him. Although he made no promises to me, somehow I knew that he would represent me to the best of his ability & my case would end victoriously.
He was/ is very professional, efficient & extremely knowledgeable in his field. He really knows his stuff. He conducted/conducts himself in an ethical & honest manner. He not only had/has high standards, he had/has integrity. Rest assured that once he takes your case, he will represent you with zeal, confidence, knowledge, honesty, integrity & lots of hard work. He will do the very best job he can for you, I guarantee it..
Both of my cases looked bleak & hopeless due to the unusual circumstances that occurred, but the end result(s) ended victoriously. Although both cases took a long time for the end result, Sven worked hard & played the game(s) that frequently occurred/occurs in the judicial system arena with extreme professionalism, integrity, knowledge & patience,
I would not hesitate to hire him again if I needed to. His fee(s) may be a little on the high side, or expensive, but he is well worth it. I would highly recommend Sven Wiberg to anyone who needs representation, as he is an exceptional attorney!!

So we took a leap of faith and it paid off for us big time. My initial phone call was with Sherrie and she immediately made me feel at ease. Travers & Travers took our case head on and did not stop until we brought our daughter home. They were very professional, but were also very human and friendly- that was very important to me. Mack went with us to court and mediation and he was able to keep us calm while waiting in between everything. He was very well spoken and had good charisma in the court room. Allison and Annilee worked on the background information, researching and helping us gather the information we needed to win our case. Travers & Travers explained things to us in terms we could understand, they were willing and able to answer any questions we had and never made us feel like we were bothering them. They were also very willing to work with us on our ability to pay for their services. Travers and Travers worked on our case as a family so anytime we needed anything; someone was there to help out. When our case was finished, Travers & Travers were more than just our lawyers, they were friends. They all had our best interests at heart the entire time.
I know most people’s situations will be different than ours, but if you want a lawyer that is truly looking out for you, I would highly recommend Travers & Travers. Their kindness and willing to work hard for us, brought our daughter home and we will forever be grateful for them.

Brian did an excellent job helping us navigate a unique family law issue and helped obtained a birth certificate for our son. He did a great job of investigating state and local requirements, preparing the necessary documentation and evidence, and presenting our case to agency officials. He continued to work with the local and state authorities to see that we received the necessary documentation in a timely manner. We were very pleased with his effort, legal skill, and commitment to client service.

I worked with Michele on many occasions over the years, and I have great respect for her. She and I were among founders of the Washington Coalition for Open Government, one of NFOIC's many great state affiliates. But when Michele and I first met and had an occasion to collaborate, I was an executive with the Seattle P-I ( Post-Intelligencer) and she was a bright young litigator for the law firm that represented my crosstown rival, The Seattle Times. My respect and admiration for her abilities were strong then, and those perceptions have never waned.

Upon hiring a different attorney and being taken advantage of I was lost, frustrated and out of enough money to pay a retainer. So I asked a question on here and received multiple answers. Kenneth stood out. He was reasonably priced and really answered all my questions. In the end I felt like I owed him more for all the information he gave me. He represented me 4 states away in wrapping up a Modification of Visitation/Child Support Orders. I will definitely use him again in ALL future issues in Texas and have already recommended him to friends and family. Thank you so much Kenneth!

I hired Jim Lieber a number of years ago in regard to an education work-place discrimination matter that touched on any number of intricate points tied to the school’s standards/politics/contracts/personalities. Jim proved masterful at bringing justice to the situation. He was able to air the details that proved greatly (and appropriately) embarrassing to the opposing side while couching all such information within the proper legal/contractual framework to maximize the effectiveness of the complaints I was raising before all the right authorities. For anyone facing a work-place situation they think may be worth addressing legally, I cannot imagine a better attorney to have than Jim Lieber.

I had a tough case that most attorneys would have turned down, but Mr. Samuels is not like most attorneys. He knew what he was getting into would be a challenge, but he took it on and persevered. I was impressed with his knowledge and experience, which far exceeded my expectations. His paralegal, Katherine, was also an MVP. She was on top of things, always prompt and courteous and smart like a whip! They made me feel like I was their only, most important client and both my family and I appreciate everything they have done. I can finally get back on my feet and move forward.

It was very reassuring for me to know that I was well cared for with my matter. Mr. Chmelir always took the time to explain all the details that I was otherwise unfamiliar with, and he made sure that I understood the process. Whenever I had a question, he was always available or very quick to respond, usually within an hour. I feel that he fought hard for me, and I could always see his wheels turning in respect to his next move; I believe that he got me the best possible outcome in my case. He was polite, patient, polished, and professional. If I had to go through it all a second time, I would choose him to represent me again. But let's pray I don't have to!

What an Appeals Lawyer Can Do for You
An appeals lawyer specializes in representing clients in appellate courts, challenging or defending lower court decisions. If you believe that a legal error was made during your trial or that the court’s decision was unjust, an appeals lawyer can help you appeal the ruling to a higher court. They work to identify mistakes made during the trial, such as improper application of law, exclusion of key evidence, or jury misconduct. On the other hand, if you're defending a favorable judgment, an appeals lawyer can help protect the decision from being overturned.
Appeals lawyers don’t retry the case but instead focus on legal arguments and procedural issues to convince the appellate court to either overturn, modify, or uphold the lower court’s decision.
When Should I Hire an Appeals Lawyer?
Hiring an appeals lawyer is necessary when you are involved in a legal appeal, either as the appellant (the party appealing the case) or the appellee (the party defending the lower court’s ruling). Common situations in which you should hire an appeals lawyer include:
- Appealing a conviction or ruling: If you’ve been convicted in a criminal case or lost a civil case and believe the decision was based on legal errors or improper procedures, an appeals lawyer can review the case and file an appeal on your behalf.
- Challenging a sentence: In criminal cases, if you feel that the sentence is excessively harsh or not in line with legal standards, an appeals lawyer can work to reduce or modify the sentence.
- Defending a lower court ruling: If the opposing party has filed an appeal to overturn a favorable ruling, an appeals lawyer can help defend the judgment and argue that the lower court’s decision should be upheld.
- Complex legal issues: If your case involves complicated legal issues or interpretations of the law, an appeals lawyer can provide the necessary expertise to argue those points effectively before an appellate court.
- Reviewing trial errors: Appeals lawyers can examine whether mistakes such as jury misconduct, improper exclusion or admission of evidence, or incorrect jury instructions occurred during the trial.
You should hire an appeals lawyer as soon as you decide to appeal or are informed that the other party is appealing the case, as appellate procedures are time-sensitive.
What Does an Appeals Lawyer Do?
An appeals lawyer provides specialized legal services to challenge or defend a lower court decision. Their role focuses on legal arguments, reviewing the trial record, and persuading the appellate court to either reverse or uphold the ruling. They can:
- Review the trial record: Appeals lawyers meticulously review transcripts, evidence, and rulings from the original trial to identify any legal errors or procedural mistakes that could be grounds for appeal.
- Prepare and file briefs: Appeals lawyers write legal briefs that present persuasive arguments to the appellate court. These briefs focus on the legal errors made during the trial and how they affected the outcome.
- Present oral arguments: In many appeals, lawyers present oral arguments before a panel of judges, explaining why the lower court’s decision should be reversed or upheld based on legal principles.
- Monitor case law developments: Appeals lawyers stay updated on changes in the law and precedents set by higher courts, which can be crucial in shaping the arguments they present during the appeal.
- Provide legal advice on the likelihood of success: Appeals lawyers can offer a realistic assessment of your chances of winning the appeal based on the legal errors and evidence from the trial.
How Are Appeals Lawyers Paid?
Appeals lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the appeal and the amount of work required to prepare briefs and present arguments. Common payment structures include:
- Hourly rate: Many appeals lawyers charge by the hour due to the significant amount of research, writing, and preparation involved in appeals. Hourly rates can range from $200 to $600 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and the case’s complexity.
- Flat fee: For some straightforward appeals, a lawyer may charge a flat fee that covers all the work necessary to complete the appeal.
- Retainer fee: In complex or high-stakes appeals, a lawyer may require a retainer, an upfront payment that covers the initial stages of the appeal. The lawyer then bills against this retainer for ongoing work.
It's important to discuss fees and costs upfront with your lawyer during the initial consultation to ensure you understand the financial commitment involved.
How Much Does an Appeals Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring an appeals lawyer varies depending on factors such as the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the amount of work involved. General cost estimates include:
- Straightforward appeals: For simpler appeals, such as those involving minor legal errors, fees can range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on the scope of work.
- Complex appeals: Appeals that involve complicated legal issues, multiple grounds for appeal, or high-stakes outcomes can cost anywhere from $20,000 to $100,000 or more, especially if the case requires extensive legal research, brief writing, and oral arguments.
- Hourly rates: Many appeals lawyers charge hourly rates ranging from $200 to $600 per hour, with higher rates often associated with more experienced attorneys or particularly challenging cases.
Before proceeding with your appeal, it’s crucial to ask for a clear estimate of the costs involved so you can budget appropriately.
Top Questions to Ask an Appeals Lawyer
Before hiring an appeals lawyer, it’s essential to ask questions to ensure they are well-suited for your case and that you understand the appeals process. Important questions include:
-
What experience do you have with appeals?
Ensure the lawyer has substantial experience handling appellate cases, particularly in the area of law relevant to your case (e.g., criminal, civil, family, etc.). -
How do you charge for appeals?
Ask whether the lawyer charges an hourly rate, a flat fee, or a retainer, and request an estimate of the total costs for handling your appeal. -
What is the likelihood of success for my appeal?
A good appeals lawyer should provide an honest assessment of your case’s strengths and weaknesses and the chances of winning the appeal. -
How long will the appeal process take?
Ask for an estimate of how long the appeal process might take, from filing the initial briefs to a final decision by the appellate court. -
Will you personally handle my appeal?
In larger law firms, junior attorneys or legal assistants may handle some of the research or drafting. Clarify who will be responsible for preparing and arguing your case. -
What is your approach to handling appeals?
Some lawyers may be more inclined to focus on procedural issues, while others emphasize broader legal arguments. Make sure the lawyer’s approach aligns with your goals.
How to Check the Credibility of an Appeals Lawyer
To ensure that you’re hiring a reputable appeals lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and experience:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing, with no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for appellate experience: Review the lawyer’s website or profile to ensure they specialize in appellate law and have successfully handled appeals similar to yours.
- Check client reviews and testimonials: Look for client feedback on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to get insight into the lawyer’s track record and client satisfaction.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their expertise and success in handling appeals.
- Look for recognition in appellate law: Membership in organizations like the American Academy of Appellate Lawyers (AAAL) or awards and recognition in appellate law can indicate a lawyer’s expertise in this specialized area.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with an appeals lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Trial transcripts and court records: The lawyer will need a complete record of the original trial, including transcripts, motions, exhibits, and the final judgment or order.
- Legal briefs from the trial: If any briefs or motions were filed during the trial, bring copies so the appeals lawyer can review the legal arguments that were presented.
- Written decision or verdict: Bring the court’s written ruling, verdict, or decision so the lawyer can identify any potential errors or issues to raise on appeal.
- Questions about the appeal process: Write down any questions you have about the appeal’s timeline, costs, and potential outcomes.
- List of potential legal errors: If you believe specific mistakes were made during the trial (e.g., improper evidence, legal misinterpretations), provide a list of those issues.
Being well-prepared for your consultation allows the lawyer to assess your case more effectively and provide the best guidance on how to proceed with your appeal.
