Mr. Haslem was exactly what I needed. He did such a good job I rehired him again and he won all of my cases and even won me money. He will go to the end of the world for his clients and he shows every bit of compassion to his clients. I definitely was out into a horrible place with my divorce and criminal cases and he conquered all for me. He proved my innocence and even proved the perjury to the other part of the suits. He will always be my go to lawyer if I need one.

Donald Haslam was a blessing to my entire family during several months of back to back court hearings in a family law case involving my son. He was by far the most organized and communicative lawyer I’ve ever met. He made sure we stayed on top of everything ultimately winning custody of my son.

I had an incident to where i was injured, and did not know much about civil law. Sam guided me every step of the way and fought for me side by side to get the best possible outcome for me. He did not let insurance low ball me, and held out for that best possible income. If i have any other incidents, he is my attorney.

Having recently been through a difficult and expensive divorce, my feeling about legal representation was jaded. Sameer changed everything. His attention to detail was unmatched and his ability to do extraordinary work independently while keeping me informed was different than anything I've ever experienced. In the end, I received more than I ever expected. More importantly, Sameer listened to me and I felt like he was on my side. I can't say enough great things about him and I would recommend him to anyone.

I would recommend Bob Salinas to anyone facing bad behavior from a landlord. We went to him when our landlord tried to illegally evict every person in our complex, and he guided us through the process of collecting evidence and responding to the eviction threats, and then helped us through mediation and to a settlement that kept us all in our homes.
The thing I really want to stress, though, is how kind and patient he is with his clients. Needless to say we were beyond anxious and stressed out over the landlord's threats, but he was always there for us, giving us so much more of his time than he had to -- even though our case was much smaller than many of the other cases his firm handles.
Going with the Salinas Law Group is one of the best decisions we've ever made.

I called the office of Brian Vogel to ask a few questions on how to apply for a restricted license. I have not been convicted of the DUI in the court but the dmv has suspended my license for four months. Brian was not in his office at the time of my call. His assistant Liisa took 20 minutes out of her busy day to answer all my questions and help clarify everything. Brian Vogel is not my lawyer, but his assistant Liisa treated me like one of their own. I'm very thankful for the help and highly suggest Brian Vogel for anyone that has any problem with the law.

We were struggling with our landlords over a relocation and abatement issue and Brian was able to walk us through not only the process of our rights but the language of the law in terms we could understand and defend our rights. His response time is impeccable and staff is top notch in customer service and extremely pleasant to work with.

In the law enforcement profession, we hope to never have to need an attorney, but one night at 11pm when I arrived at work, I found an envelope in my mailbox indicating that my agency was investigating me. The first phone call I made was to the Legal Defense Fund, and as luck would have it, Attorney Gambaccini was the lawyer handling the emergency calls to the law firm at that time.
From that night on, Attorney Gambaccini was extremely helpful in offering a different perspective on the situation I was being investigated for. I believe that with his input and guidance at each step of the way, he helped me navigate through waters that proved to be extremely challenging at the time.
It turned out that the first investigation that Attorney Gambaccini helped navigate me through was just the beginning. Over the course of the next few months, I would come to depend upon Attorney Gambaccini's feedback and knowledge many, many more times.
Through the numerous (and I mean numerous) phone calls that the two of us had, Attorney Gambaccini listened like a friend and offered help as I needed an attorney to do. A year has passed since having to utilize Attorney Gambaccini's expertise, and since successfully helping me with with my ordeal, I can say that I still keep in contact with Andy. I wouldn't hesitate in reaching out to him in his official capacity should I ever need legal assistance again in the future, but am happy that I get to keep in touch with him as a friend at this stage in my career.

Andy was intorduced to me by another member of his firm. He has helped me through some difficult situations, including a civil suit. The case was dismissed without further action. He went out of his way to keep me informed and placed my mind at ease on many occassions. He is always courteous, professional, and extremely helpful. He has taken the time to speak with me on other matters, including both job related and personal. In my position, I have the opportunity to work with numerous attorneys in the public and private sector. He is an outstanding lawyer and I would highly recommend him to anyone.

I was first introduced to Andy through the MPA's legal defense fund. I needed the assistance of an attorney with a civil service employment issue. Andy and his associates at Reardon, Joyce and Akerson worked tirelessly towards my case. Andy kept me up to date with constant communication. His knowledge of the law, particularly of the civil service process, was impressive. Even though I was just one of his many clients, I felt a level of personalization between he and I that made the whole ordeal more manageable. I would strongly encourage anyone questioning whether or not they should sign up for the legal defense to do so. You never know what life will throw at you next and having the legal defense fund makes that uncertainty more manageable. I would have never guessed that one day I would have needed the assistance of the legal defense, but I am glad I singed up for it.
I would highly recommend Andrew Gambaccini and his colleagues at RJA for any of your legal needs. I know they will treat you will the same respect and dedication that they gave me.

I reached out to Zach who was Reccomnded though someone at Harvard law criminal justice department.
I spoke to several other attorneys as well as Zach. Zach stands out compared to the 4 other attorneys I had consultations with.
I called and he got back to me within the hour. I had a phone consultation with him about my case.
He went above and beyond with out being asked.
In our consult, and for several days following Zach continued to give me information I had never been presented before that could be the difference between winning and losing a case. This is all based on Zach’s experience, knowledge and research. He took the time and went far beyond the expectations of a consultation.
He presented it from both sides and was able to play devils advocate well.
Alone on his consult, I would highly Reccomnded Zach. There are many attorneys out there but there are few that put in the time and effort as Zach does.

Stephanie is a cross between Princess Diana and Erin Brockovich. She is beautiful, kind, selfless and endearing. She is also a fierce litigator who will do whatever it takes to get justice for her clients. My husband and I endured the most difficult times of our life when my husband and his business partner decided to part ways. From the second we met Stephanie, she made us feel important and like she genuinely cared about our case. She went above and beyond what you would expect from a lawyer while fighting and fighting until she won us what we had spent our whole lives earning. We will forever be indebted to her for what she has done for our family.

Can’t say it with enough words on how thankful I am with Attorneys Mike Haber and Marc Morris. I was with the wrong people, at the wrong location, during the wrong time. Everything happened so fast; I ended up in the slammer with charges which could have left me behind bars for about 40 years.
I knew the only way to prove my innocents and show I have nothing to do with the operation; I had to hire an over the top, above average, bulldog lawyer. I hesitated to call anyone. I knew of lawyers that advertise everywhere, but I was concerned as to hire any lawyer who would want to charge me up endlessly and might not have the experience to duly represent me against a setup which I had not been involved.
I started googling legal terminology, and I saw a series of results from this website avvo.com and a couple of these results were answers to questions by Attorney Mike Haber. I was skeptical of both the website and the attorney. I did further research and found the validity of the website, and that Mr. Haber is licensed by the Florida Bar. It helped greatly to see Attorney Haber has much social media presence with numerous YouTube videos, which are very informative. I then felt assured this is the real deal and decided to call up Mike.
Mike runs a lean law practice, and therefore there are no runarounds through a receptionist or paralegal. He answers his cell phone, and when he doesn’t, it is because he is in court. Well, going back to the storyline, I called Mike, and from the initial call I was very much impressed how articulated, and knowledgeable this guy is on the matter. Over the phone, he sounded like a tough guy (which was what I was looking for). In person, boy you better be careful not to get a bite. As long, as you are on his side or at least not against him, you will be fine. In the initial call, he mentioned about bringing another lawyer on board, Attorney Marc Morris. Marc has an extensive background as he was a prosecutor. Two amazing lawyers equal much ammunition for the battle to show my innocence against the mammoth which wanted to drag me down.
This review is getting longer than expected, well to rush to the conclusion. I was released with no bail set with a ROR; the case still was pending because the prosecution did not want to budge to drop the charges, and right before the start of the speedy trial (which my attorneys requested), the attorneys endlessly dropped motions onto the prosecution. On the morning of the trial, the prosecution threw the towel, and the case was dismissed.
Here are some tips: these lawyers are not going to hold your hand, nor babysit you. They are actively defending your best interest and getting things done. Therefore, do not get in their way, and let them do their job. Remember they have a lean law practice, which in turn saves you much money.

Marc is always ready for war in the courtroom. After dealing with multiple issues, he fought aggressively until the charges were knocked out. I originally hired an incompetent lawyer after not doing much research, but I soon contacted Marc Morris and Mike Haber after seeing all of their amazing reviews to see if they could help with my sitaution. After first meeting them, I realized I needed to hire them and get rid of the other lawyer. Well that was the best decision I made, because not even 6 months later, all of the charges were dropped.
Marc even went out of his way to help me when I got myself into hot water by not taking his advice. He truly cares, and handles the situation as it was his own. He was able to do things in the courtroom that I never thought were possible.
Thanks Marc!

Mr Morris. Is an incredible human being and lawyer, I got introduced to him as I was in high school as a little kid from friends getting in trouble during the very peak times for weston Sherrifs. As a kid I didn't understand exactly how everything worked and having my dad working outside of country and mom being mother of 3 and being able to help me with expense. But Mr.Morris explained everything in detail made sure I knew where I was headed and treated me like a long lost son. He will go through everything for you and fight till the end and is really honest and tells you how it is. He doesn't sugarcoat anything and really makes you trust him as your lawyer and friend. I personally don't know where my life would be if it wasn't for Marc Morris and how great and detail concentrated he is and incredible on how he holds his presence in a court room. Mr. Morris has not helped me with one or two but 3 cases and each one ended in dismissal or approval to be expunged. He even fought for my ex girlfriend and different people as my wrong doing and really amazed what an amazing lawyer he is. He has took me from being down and being completely wrong to safe my college career and future job. He will find a way to prove there was something wrong. To be utterly honest at first I thought he was very expensive or really just wanting to pull the money out of me . But in the end my whole perception was turned upside down. You get what you pay for and if you want to save your life your record and your future Marc Morris is the man you should hire. Mr. Morris didn't even pay me or ask me to do this review, in fact 4-5 years ago reviews mattered but Marc deserves way much more than just reviews. If you hire him you will definitely not be disapointed.

This firm is phenomenal! Paige was my lawyer. She is amazing as far as I'm concerned. She is smart, relatable, genuinely cares about her clients...plus, she's a fabulous attorney who knows her stuff!!!!
I very much appreciate all the hard work and dedication she and Sam put into my civil rights lawsuit.
Throughout my life I have had to hire attorneys for various situations. Never have I had an attorney who truly kept me informed. She did so much more than that though. She went over and above! She guided me and was just a pleasure to work with. I know where I am going if I ever need an attorney again and I will always recommend their services to anyone who asks!
If you want attorneys who will truly fight for you this is the firm for you!

Attorney Ronald Thompson and his team are excellent!

They will do everything they can to get the very best outcome. They will keep you updated on your case by calling or emailing you with any information they have. They offer a reasonable price. I highly recommend hiring Attorney Ronald Thompson and his team to help you get your ticket dismissed!

I had the good fortune to work with Ginger on a workplace issue involving discrimination. From the first phone call Ginger showed the utmost integrity and knowledge on the subject. She was patient and engaged in hearing about the situation, very upfront about my options, and throughout the process provided clear information to help guide my decisions. She was prompt and courteous, and also appropriately firm, in all her communication. She was able to reach a mutually agreed upon resolution in under 3 months and I was thrilled with the outcome! I would (and in fact already have) highly recommend her for any of the legal areas in which she practices.

I highly, highly recommend Ginger and her team for any employment law issues.

Let me begin by saying that I had consulted previously with a place I found from googling "top sexual harassment lawyers" that told me I had no case (too bad for them!!). I thought I would give it another shot (believing I truly had a good case), and found Ginger here on Avvo. She gave me such a sense of relief after our first point of contact. Not only did she explain all of my options, including but not limited to the ones where she felt I could rectify my situation without a lawyer, but she did so unbiasedly. I never felt that she was trying to push me in one way or the other, and she made sure I had adequate time to think about any of my steps moving forward. After deciding on pursuing my case, she set up a two hour zoom meeting where she heard every aspect of my story. I never once felt judged, or belittled. I could tell she was thorough in asking me the types of questions in order to get information I wouldn't have even though of mentioning prior. The compilation of events was put together in an extremely professional well-written letter to the harasser. Throughout the time of negotiations, Ginger was always prompt to fill me in with any news, answer any questions I had, and always gave her honest opinion on given situations. Long story short, in about 4-5 months we reached a mutually satisfactory outcome. I could not be happier with her effectiveness and professionalism. Ginger is not only a great lawyer, but a compassionate and caring individual. She fought so hard for me and made sure I would be happy with the results. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you Ginger, you are the BEST!

I incorrectly posted a negative review for this lawyer, which I am hoping will be removed shortly. John has a heart and goes out of his way to make the client feel important and defended. I would recommend him to everyone. Thank you John - you are a lawyer I can trust.

I came to John Phillips office with little or no hope that I could prove my innocence or survive the alligations against me, I didn't think I would survive emotionally what myself and family were being put through. John along with Reid Hart listen to my story, they explained to me what they could do help me,and how they would go about helping me.My family and I felt so much better about my case and my chances of clearing my name after my conversation with John Phillips, and Ried Hart. I don't know if I would have ever gotten through this ordeal if a friend hadn't suggested that I go speak with John. Every motion they file every question they ask is all tied into getting to the truth,and giving you the best chance of victory I will never use another Law Firm other John Phillips Law firm for anything legal that might come up on my life again. Law firms like John Phillips and Lawyers like Reid Hart don't come like grapes in Bunches.

He always put my concerns to rest by giving me the time out of his day to make sure no question of mine went unanswered. Mr. George has helped my family and several friends of mine over the past few years with various legal issues that have arisen. He is more than qualified as a professional attorney across the board to handle any problem put in front of him in a tactful, exemplary manner.

Abe George helped my family with a civil rights law suit. His utmost dedication and commitment to our case was unmatched to anything I have ever seen or heard about. He covered every base and answered every what if that ever existed in my mind. I could not have dreamed of hiring better counsel to do the job Mr. George did. The amount of money he received for my family from the City was more than we ever expected. I would highly recommend Mr. George.

What a Civil Rights Lawyer Can Do for You
A civil rights lawyer focuses on protecting individuals whose constitutional rights have been violated by government authorities, employers, or private organizations. These lawyers specialize in cases involving discrimination, police misconduct, freedom of speech, and other fundamental rights guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution and civil rights laws, such as the Civil Rights Act, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and the Fair Housing Act.
Whether you've been discriminated against due to race, gender, religion, disability, or other protected characteristics, or you believe your civil rights have been violated by a government entity, a civil rights lawyer can help you seek justice, hold wrongdoers accountable, and secure compensation for any harm you've suffered.
When Should I Hire a Civil Rights Lawyer?
You should hire a civil rights lawyer when your constitutional rights or other protected rights have been violated, and you need legal assistance to seek justice. Some key situations in which you may need a civil rights lawyer include:
- Employment discrimination: If you have faced discrimination at work based on race, gender, age, religion, national origin, or disability, a civil rights lawyer can help you file claims under laws such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act or the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
- Police misconduct or brutality: If you were the victim of police brutality, unlawful arrest, racial profiling, or other forms of misconduct, a lawyer can help you file a lawsuit for violations of your Fourth and Fourteenth Amendment rights.
- Freedom of speech or assembly violations: If your First Amendment rights to free speech or peaceful assembly have been restricted by the government, a civil rights lawyer can represent you in challenging the violation.
- Housing discrimination: If you’ve been denied housing or faced unfair treatment due to your race, ethnicity, gender, or disability, a lawyer can help you file a complaint under the Fair Housing Act.
- Voter rights violations: If you believe your right to vote has been unfairly suppressed or you’ve faced discrimination in the voting process, a civil rights lawyer can help you fight for your rights.
- Disability rights violations: If you’ve faced discrimination in accessing public spaces, employment, or services due to a disability, a lawyer can help enforce your rights under the ADA.
- LGBTQ+ rights violations: If you've experienced discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity in employment, housing, or public services, a civil rights lawyer can help you pursue legal remedies.
Hiring a lawyer early on can help you understand your legal options and build a strong case to protect your rights.
What Does a Civil Rights Lawyer Do?
A civil rights lawyer provides legal representation and advocacy to individuals whose rights have been violated. Their work can include:
- Filing lawsuits: A civil rights lawyer can represent you in court by filing lawsuits against individuals, businesses, or government entities that violated your rights.
- Advocating for policy changes: Civil rights lawyers often engage in advocacy work, pushing for reforms to laws and policies that infringe upon people's rights.
- Representing clients in discrimination claims: These lawyers help clients file claims with federal or state agencies, such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
- Negotiating settlements: In many cases, civil rights lawyers work to negotiate settlements for their clients before a case goes to trial, securing compensation for damages such as lost wages, emotional distress, or legal fees.
- Defending freedom of expression: Lawyers may represent clients whose rights to free speech, assembly, or protest were violated by government restrictions or other actions.
- Handling appeals: If your civil rights case has been decided but you wish to appeal the ruling, a civil rights lawyer can help you through the appeals process.
How Are Civil Rights Lawyers Paid?
Civil rights lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work involved. Common payment structures include:
- Contingency fee: Many civil rights lawyers work on a contingency basis, meaning they only get paid if they win your case. Their fee is typically a percentage (usually 25% to 40%) of the settlement or damages awarded.
- Hourly rate: For cases that require extensive legal research or litigation, some lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
- Pro bono or sliding scale: Some civil rights lawyers or organizations may work on a pro bono (free) basis or use a sliding fee scale for clients who cannot afford typical legal fees.
- Flat fee: In specific cases, a lawyer may charge a flat fee for services like drafting legal documents or filing a complaint.
It’s important to clarify the fee structure during your initial consultation to avoid unexpected costs.
How Much Does a Civil Rights Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a civil rights lawyer varies depending on the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the type of legal issue. General cost estimates include:
- Contingency fee cases: For cases taken on a contingency basis, the lawyer’s fee will typically range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or judgment awarded.
- Hourly rates: Many civil rights lawyers charge hourly rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
- Flat fees: For straightforward legal tasks, such as filing a complaint with a government agency or drafting legal documents, flat fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.
- Pro bono work: Some civil rights lawyers or nonprofit organizations provide free legal representation in certain cases involving important constitutional or civil rights issues.
Be sure to ask for a detailed estimate of costs during your consultation to understand the financial commitment involved.
Top Questions to Ask a Civil Rights Lawyer
Before hiring a civil rights lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with civil rights cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it’s employment discrimination, police misconduct, or First Amendment violations. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer works on a contingency fee basis, hourly rate, or flat fee, and ask for an estimate of the total cost of your case. -
What is the likelihood of success for my case?
Ask the lawyer to provide an honest assessment of your case, including the strengths, weaknesses, and potential outcomes. -
Have you handled cases like mine before?
Inquire about the lawyer’s experience in cases with similar facts and legal issues. -
What is the timeline for resolving my case?
While exact timelines can vary, ask for an estimate of how long your case may take, from filing to resolution. -
Will you handle my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may work on parts of your case, so it’s important to know who will handle your legal matter directly.
How to Check the Credibility of a Civil Rights Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable civil rights lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their state bar license: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for specific civil rights experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in civil rights law and have a history of handling cases like yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who can speak to their experience with civil rights cases.
- Check for advocacy or nonprofit work: Lawyers involved with civil rights organizations, such as the ACLU or NAACP Legal Defense Fund, may have a strong reputation in the civil rights legal community.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a civil rights lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- A detailed account of the violation: Provide a written summary of the events, including dates, times, and any people involved in the violation of your rights.
- Documentation and evidence: Bring any supporting documentation, such as emails, letters, photos, or video footage that may help prove the violation of your rights.
- Records of complaints or reports: If you’ve filed complaints with a government agency or reported the violation, bring copies of those documents.
- List of questions: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes of your case.
- Information on damages or harm: Be prepared to discuss the harm you’ve suffered due to the violation, such as emotional distress, financial loss, or physical injury.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and get the best possible legal advice on how to proceed.
