Scott and his team came highly recommended from a friend of mine. He was absolutely fantastic! He made sure I had a good outcome, and fought for me till the end. He is always available, literally anytime I called he was there to take my call, he also reached out to me continuously and made sure I’m on board with every move he made. It really felt like we were a team and that he genuinely cares about his clients. The other lawyers at his company are also very on the ball, super nice, helpful and informative. I am very happy with my experience and I cannot recommend this law office enough!

We asked Scott to represent us in an automobile accident lawsuit. The initial consultation made us feel comfortable and well informed about our options. His office was always prompt in response and were great at keeping us updated during the lengthy process. We were glad that we received a judgment in our favor without it going to trial and felt that he wanted to get us a maximum settlement which he did. I highly recommend him and his team. You won't be disappointed. Thank you Scott :)

I had a DUI a year ago but then got it reduced to reckless driving. Once it was reduced the board of nursing found out within 30 days of the conviction. Since I failed to report it in I received a letter from the the Board of Nursing wanting to mediate or legal action was going to be taken towards my license. I then hired Elizabeth about my issue and she spoke to the Board of Nursing and got the case to be dismissed by not having them file a complaint towards me and my license. She is very professional helpful and always available and compassion towards you and your needs. I definitely recommend her and the case was resolved very quick with a reasonable price.

I highly recommend the Law Office of Marina Serebryanaya and Mark Nemtsov for O-1 visa applications. Their professionalism, knowledge, and personalized approach were outstanding. Mark and his team guided me through the process with ease, ensuring clear communication and meticulous attention to detail. Their expertise was crucial in obtaining my O-1 visa not just once, but twice. They made a complex process feel manageable and were genuinely committed to my success. If you need legal assistance for your visa, look no further than the Law Office of Marina Serebryanaya and Mark Nemtsov for exceptional service and results.

Jerry literally helped us when we felt we had nowhere or no one to go to. My husband and I purchased a brand new 2021 Ford Explorer so I can drive around with our 5 boys. We only had about 1k miles and the car caught fire! I was 4 months pregnant at the time and scared to death. We attempted to go through Ford in hopes that we could get some resolution…all they did was pressure wash the engine and change the alternator. I was so afraid of driving my explorer that it just sat in the driveway catching dust. Jerry not only got Ford to pay off our vehicle and take it back, but we received compensation to purchase a new vehicle that we can drive around safely in with our 6 boys. Jerry was very professional, and made sure that we got the maximum which is what we deserved. He’s a no BS kind of guy and was straight up with us from the get go. Hopefully we never have to contact him again but if we do I know who to trust.

“We have worked with Centarus Legal Services for several years now and are always pleased with the quality of their work and the service they provide. When we started our relationship, everything about securities law and capital raising was new, and mostly foreign. Thanks to their expert legal advice and impeccable document preparation, we have since initiated and closed two rounds of financing. We would highly recommend engaging Centarus for all of your private placement needs.”

I was charged with statutory rape in NY, along with several other charges. Mr. Meissner arranged a deal with the Assistant DA for me to have the charges reduced to a misdemeanor and me to attend classes, even when other lawyers said I would have to serve some jail time. Can't thank Stuart enough for allowing me this second chance to get my life back. Anyone who has legal problems should give Stuart Meissner a call before anyone else.

I live in the Midwest and required a good security lawyer for my claim against Lehman Brothers, previously one of the top brokerage firms headquartered in New York. Stuart Meissner's office is in New York and his law practice includes security law.
My legal claim was complex and became more so when Lehman Brothers filed what has been regarded as the largest bankruptcy case in history. For over six years Stuart Meissner has had to deal with multiple and substantive issues as well as the different venues for representation and resolution of this claim. This required notifying me, explaining and assisting me in understanding the issues, supplying documentation, and determining decisions. Stuart Meissner also had to engage in handling these legal issues as well as dealing with courts and multiple lawyers first, within the context of a regular security claim and then, within the context of a bankruptcy claim. This claim is currently in settlement.
I recommend others who have security or similar type claims to consider legal representation by Stuart Meissner. The legal path may be long, arduous, and complicated but Stuart Meissner will be your legal representative who can meet the challenge.

Diane worked with me to settle a complaint which took 3.5 years from start to finish. She was very thorough and made sure that no deadlines were missed and continued to follow up and keep me updated as things progressed. She was able to negotiate a settlement far below what we had even hoped for and really went the extra mile in keeping the pressure on opposing counsel. She is sharp, intelligent, and very kind and empathetic to her clients, I wholeheartedly recommend working with her.

If you're seeking a criminal defense lawyer, chances are, you're already in a highly stressful position. For me, finding a suitable lawyer to defend a misdemeanor was just as stressful - until I came across Diane. I knew I would work with Diane within a minute of speaking to her on the phone. She was receptive, compassionate, and ambitious. I knew Diane would defend me with every bone in her body, and it was SUCH a relief to find a support system that I could undeniably depend upon. Throughout the process (initial meeting, court appearance, follow-up), Diane was easy to reach, responsive, and kept me aware of the proceedings (in a way that I could understand). You'll not find better support. Thank you Diane!

Mr. Santos was professional from the start. He handled my case extremely well. My ex husband wanted changes with his child support. Mr. Santos requested documents and followed up with them. He took care of everything. His attention to detail with my case led to a wonderful outcome on my behalf. I would not hesitate to hire him again if needed. I highly recommend Mr. Ted Santos to anyone in need of legal representation.

I was referred by a friend to contact Ted Santos regarding a Deceptive Trade Practices Act case with a local car dealership. Ted returned my call quickly and outlined the process in terms I could easily understand. He explained both the upside and downside of filing this claim and process/costs of moving forward.
What impressed me most was his honesty in letting me know that a case like this might be settled quickly or, if the dealership decided that they believed they had done nothing wrong and fought back, the time and costs could spiral quickly upward. Based on this sound advice, I went back to the dealership and negotiated a settlement on my own.
If Ted had not taken the time to explain all my options, I would have not pursued a more reasonable settlement with the dealership. The next time I need good legal advice, I will call Ted.

Many thoughts had gone through my mind at the time of my situation which were wreaking havoc on my life and health. I met with Mr. Santos and went through my situation with him with every detail possible. After sitting with him and having him actively listen to me I knew Mr. Santos was going to pull me out of my suffering. He was very thorough with information and very clear on the direction we were going on together till we came to a satisfactory end. He honestly would contact me just to see how I was feeling and to make sure I didn't have any questions lingering. Very trustworthy and honorable individual that I'm grateful I chose him to represent me.

At one of the most difficult times in our lives, we thought all of our hard work might be ripped away. Thomason explained the contracts, and our rights very clearly and fought for what our family had earned through years of hard work. He's not afraid of a fight, and he doesn't ask for more than he deserves. I very much recommend him. If you are in need of an Business Attourney, you will not find any better in our opinion.

Thomason helped us through an extremely difficult time. He went to bat for my son in what was a substantial and overwhelming (for us) situation. The outcome was the best we could have hoped for in a very serious situation. Throughout, Thomason showed great integrity and compassion and we knew we had a very capable advocate on our side. We feel grateful and very blessed to have had Thomason as our lawyer and I would recommend him to anyone who needs a lawyer with the utmost level of integrity!

Lane helped for the first time in 2018 when i was hit by a drunk driver. He was able to take care of everything so professionally and rapidly. When i got hit by a drunk driver the second time in 2024, i waited no time before contacting Lane for help again. Needless to say, he is truly one of the best attorney in this field to genuinely help out people in need. I will be recommending Hoestenbach law group and Lane to everyone i know.

I'm not sure where to begin. I think we all get to a point in our lives where we start to lose hope, hope in what's going on around us , hope in the situation we're in that isn't our fault and hope in ourselves in general. I had a couple thousand dollars of completely falsified/made up fees from my first apt. These made up fees got refereed to a debt collector which then ended up on my credit report which prevented anyone from wanting to rent to me. Again and again I was denied no landlord wanted anything to do with me which ended up affecting my life horrifically. What could I do? Nothing . That's when I was referred to Heidi. She got my case and IMMEDIATELY got to work. She knew what she was talking about that was instantly apparent and she knew the law, which made me feel like I was in good hands. She has been empathetic, non judgemental and understanding through this whole thing process. She has worked non stopped, kept me updated every step up of the way and has now actually got the fee removed from my credit report AND got me a settlement. As I type this my eyes fill up with tears because I don't think I can in words relay to Heidi how great she is and the difference shes made in my life and turning it back around when no matter how hard I tried I couldn't. Thanks for giving me hope again Heidi but most importantly thanks for giving me my life back.

Mr. Kennedy did for us what another attorney said couldn't be done: he actually secured a settlement for us on losses we sustained by a previous broker and his now defunct firm. Over a course of 1.5 years (pandemic included), Mr. Kennedy and his firm, White Law Group performed beyond expectations, in fact, it felt like he was our own personal attorney. Mr. Kennedy and staff kept us consistently informed of our case status, rand esponded quickly to any questions that I may have had. The final negotiation, with his recommendations allowed us to finally end this episode with complete satisfaction.

Mr. Kennedy took my case regarding failure to supervise a financial advisor who worked for a Investment company. As the discovery brought to light, I was misled by the investor in more than one way. Mr. Kennedy involved me in all stages, filed a FINRA claim for me, and represented me at the hearings. We were successfully awarded, however the company dissolved, avoiding payment of our losses. I would recommend Mike Kennedy highly.

I was having an issue with a family trust/inheritance after my grandfather passed away & I needed answers that some of my family members were withholding from me. Once Attorney Shivick took the case all my questions were acknowledged & answered quickly. It was a sticky situation, but Shivick was straightforward, on point, & was extremely intelligent & professional throughout. My case got resolved after a lot of hard work & dedication from Shivick. It was settled at the Worcester courthouse in a timely manner. It was an honor to have him take my case & I highly recommend him to anyone who’s struggling to find the truth & get answers fast. He will work with you every step of the way & will always give you great advice during the overwhelming times. His dedication & professionalism is top notch & I highly recommend him.

I hired Adam when I had a debt collector threatening me, charging me illegal fees and telling me they'll hack into my bank account, trying to collect a debt which was actually my husband's debt to begin with. I reached out to several attorneys and I selected Adam over more experienced ones because he was really kind and reassuring. Over a period of time as Adam worked on my case, I was very pleased with his progress, he got me a really good settlement and he is absolutely the most wonderful attorney. I wish him all the best of luck in his career, he is not just a good attorney but he is also a wonderful and kind person. At a time when I was juggling suits with several attorneys, Adam became my favorite.

Attorney Adam Richard Strauss is an amazing lawyer. He helped me through a settlement case that i thought had no leg to move forward from speaking with other lawyers and he was able to proceed with the case with no issues and exceeded my expectations. His knowledge, strong professional work ethic, passion and attention to detail are off the charts and i would highly recommend him to family and friends without a second thought. He put in a lot of time in my case (more than we originally discussed) and his price stayed the exact same and so did his efforts. I am extremely grateful for his services and its the best decision i made to hire Adam. Once again, Thank you!

Adam handled my case with care, sensitivity, and made me feel like I had a real advocate. He is the epitome of a great attorney who has his clients' - and frankly ALL consumers' - rights at the forefront of his mind at all times. He is an excellent communicator and helped me understand the process while managing expectations (which he would eventually knock out of the park!). Lastly and most importantly, he helped me out of a difficult situation and my life is forever changed as a result. I find it difficult to find the words to properly recommend him to anyone in need of representation. He is simply THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS.

I was referred to James Tschudy by a trusted coworker after experiencing a flood in my apartment that left me liable for tens of thousands of dollars. I was receiving letters demanding immediate payment and didn't know what to do.
James offered immediate, complimentary consultation and quickly addressed my fears and concerns, and gave me very specific advice on what was important and how to proceed. He was non-judgmental and easy to talk to. Eventually bankruptcy was decided upon as the best course of action, and he handled all complications easily and professionally. I never felt pressured to move in one direction or another. The case is now fully resolved with no loose ends as of two months ago. I couldn't be happier.
I would absolutely recommend him to anyone considering bankruptcy or experiencing debt or collection problems.

Shahriar Kashanian was a great attorney and I am so happy to have hired him for my accident case. He never stopped fighting for me. He stands by his clients and fights to do the very best for them. I would recommend him to anyone who was injured in an accident.
Read more
27 Jun, 2021 by Gregory
Mr. Shahriar, fought for me above and beyond call of duty.
In May 2020 amid the stress of the coronavirus shut down, I went for a Saturday morning motorcycle ride and a breath of fresh air.
After an oncoming car crossed double yellow lines and nearly amputated my leg, we learned that insurance companies tend to believe car drivers over Motorcyclists.
14 months and 12 surgeries later I will eventually walk again. However, it looked like that was going to cost my family everything.
Both insurance companies were claiming it was my fault in spite of evidence to the contrary. Even the famous "motorcycle lawyers" wouldn't take the case since it was just my word against theirs.
Both companies ended up paying out the maximum.
But that's not the end of the of the story. At this point most lawyers would've taken their cut and gone home.
But that's not what happened.
It turns out Medicare doesn't pay for motorcycle accidents and were coming after me for every bit of it. This last bit was not even in his purview.
Nonetheless, Shahriar went to work on them for months even though that was not part of our contract but just because in his own words "it's just the right thing to do".
I don't know if he eventually convinced them of that or if they gave in so he would stop following up with them every day. Either way, they accepted a greatly reduced payment.
I hope you never need to, but if you ever get in a situation where you need someone to fight for you like "a bulldog on a pant leg" and never give up because that's the right thing to do, I highly recommend Mr. Shahriar Kashanian. He won't let you down.

Dr. Swate showed he genuinely cares and wants to help. Having practiced medicine, he has knowledge about the medical system that few other lawyers possess. He used this unique trait to help me with a medical licensing question I had. I called his office and he called back right away and set up an appointment the next morning. Dr. Swate was extremely thorough, answered all my questions and gave me all the time I needed for reassurance. He is very personable, compassionate, and professional. I will definitely be recommending him to all of the physicians I know, as well as anyone else in need of his services. Stop thinking and hire him!

I hired Mr. Swate to defendant me in a complicated contract dispute. I was sued in district court for violating terms of a contract. Mr. Swate developed not only a good legal strategy but understood the under lying motivation behind the lawsuit. He not only explained the law but explained why and what he was doing. My phone calls were always answered. His fees were reasonable. He not only cared about my legal matters but also listen to my concerns.

If you are looking for an Attorney who is extremely knowledgeable, caring and will stand up for you, Mr. Swate is your guy. He handled my case professionally and kept me well informed of each step of the process. I was nervous and ignorant to the process and not only did he explain things in a way that I could understand, he kept me very well informed throughout the process. He is very intelligent and seems to know what is going to happen before it happens. He never left me hanging, he always responded and answered any questions that I had in a timely manner. I was very happy with the representation that Mr. Swate provided and highly recommend him.

From my personal experience - Jacob is an outstanding attorney. He was referred to me by a friend and I would strongly recommend him, as you definitely want him on your side. He is passionate as an advocate for his clients in combination with using his sharp intelligence to effectively achieve your goal. He guided me through the entire process in a highly effective manner, as well as emotionally supportive throughout the challenging process. He operates with compassion and provides a realistic assessment of where you stand. He was HIGHLY responsive and both he and his team were quick to answer questions/calls and turn things around. He did a great job of setting my expectations throughout and delivering a good outcome that I was very happy with. If you are looking for a highly skilled attorney, you need look no further.

Brian is more then everything I could have imagined operating as a lawyer handling my case. When I say operating, every move and action is thought out and masterfully executed. If you need a lawyer that is going to take every possible opportunity given to him to use to win your case. He is him. If you are tired of your counsel going through the motions, take the leap and switch to Brian. From the first time he glides into the courtroom as if the DA was waiting just for him to slide into the mix and instantly start to create smiles and good relations. You will instantly feel relief and see the value in what a truly expert lawyer can deliver. An objection or challenge is a simple hurdle to overcome for Brian and he will sprint through the finish line with grace. He gives accurate instructions and will give full attention. If there is anything you he can arrange to go above and beyond he will deliver. I will be calling Brian for anything he can represent me for in the future. Thank you Brian for going above and beyond in an industry that can seem so stagnate. You are an incredible to witness Master Lawyer.

Wow! Working with Mrs. Stewart was one of the best investments I've ever made-next to investing in real estate! The service I requested was a contract review and she pretty much dissected the contract and exposed sinister intention. She explained how contracts should be construed in accordance to the locality/state of the party. She offered great advice such as being able to exit a contract under your terms and that it shouldn't be unilateral or in the favor of the other person. There is so much more I could write, but I have to go to bible study now!

What a Consumer Protection Lawyer Can Do for You
A consumer protection lawyer specializes in safeguarding individuals from unfair, deceptive, or fraudulent business practices. These lawyers advocate for the rights of consumers in disputes with businesses, helping clients recover damages related to fraud, defective products, false advertising, or violation of consumer protection laws. They work to enforce laws that prevent businesses from taking advantage of consumers and ensure that businesses adhere to fair practices.
Whether you’ve been the victim of a scam, sold a faulty product, or misled by false advertising, a consumer protection lawyer can help you navigate legal options and pursue justice.
When Should I Hire a Consumer Protection Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a consumer protection lawyer when you’ve encountered unfair or illegal business practices and need legal assistance to resolve the situation. Common scenarios include:
- Fraud or deceptive business practices: If a company misled you into purchasing a product or service under false pretenses, a lawyer can help you seek compensation.
- Defective products: If you purchased a product that was unsafe or defective and caused harm, a lawyer can help you file a product liability claim.
- False advertising or unfair pricing: A lawyer can assist if you were misled by deceptive advertising or charged for services or products in a way that violates consumer laws.
- Debt collection harassment: If you're being harassed by debt collectors or are facing illegal debt collection practices, a consumer protection lawyer can enforce your rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).
- Credit report issues: If errors on your credit report are affecting your financial standing, a lawyer can help you resolve disputes with credit reporting agencies or creditors under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).
- Predatory lending practices: If you've been subjected to unfair loan terms or practices by payday lenders or mortgage companies, a lawyer can help you challenge the loan and seek a resolution.
- Data breaches or identity theft: If your personal information was compromised due to a company’s failure to protect your data, a lawyer can help you recover damages related to the breach.
What Does a Consumer Protection Lawyer Do?
A consumer protection lawyer provides a wide range of services to help protect consumers' rights and seek compensation for harms caused by businesses. Their role may include:
- Filing lawsuits: Representing clients in lawsuits against businesses that have violated consumer protection laws, whether through fraud, deceptive practices, or negligence.
- Negotiating settlements: Working with businesses or their insurers to negotiate fair compensation for damages caused by unfair practices or defective products.
- Pursuing class action lawsuits: When a company harms multiple consumers, a lawyer can represent a group of plaintiffs in a class action lawsuit, seeking collective damages.
- Advising on consumer rights: Helping clients understand their rights under various consumer protection laws and advising on the best course of action.
- Handling product liability claims: Representing clients who have been injured by defective products and holding manufacturers or retailers accountable for the harm caused.
- Defending against debt collection harassment: Enforcing the rights of consumers under the FDCPA and other laws that protect individuals from abusive or unlawful debt collection tactics.
- Resolving credit report disputes: Helping clients correct errors on their credit reports that may be causing financial harm or affecting their creditworthiness.
How Are Consumer Protection Lawyers Paid?
Consumer protection lawyers typically use different fee structures depending on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work required. Common payment methods include:
- Contingency fee: For many consumer protection cases, such as class actions or product liability claims, lawyers may work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win or settle the case, taking a percentage (typically between 25% and 40%) of the awarded amount.
- Hourly rate: For more complex cases or ongoing legal disputes, some lawyers charge by the hour. Hourly rates can range from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
- Flat fee: For specific services, such as reviewing a contract or filing a small claim, a lawyer may charge a flat fee that covers all the necessary legal work.
- Retainer fee: For clients needing ongoing legal assistance, some lawyers may charge a retainer fee, which is an upfront payment that is billed against as the lawyer works on the case.
It’s important to discuss fees upfront with your lawyer to understand how you’ll be charged and to avoid unexpected costs.
How Much Does a Consumer Protection Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a consumer protection lawyer depends on the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the type of legal service required. General cost estimates include:
- Contingency fee cases: For cases handled on a contingency basis, the lawyer typically takes between 25% and 40% of any settlement or damages awarded.
- Hourly rates: Hourly rates for consumer protection lawyers generally range from $150 to $500, with higher rates for more experienced attorneys or cases involving complex legal issues.
- Flat fees: For specific services like contract reviews or handling a small claims case, flat fees may range from $500 to $2,000, depending on the scope of work.
- Class actions: In class action cases, fees are often paid out of the settlement or damages awarded, and individual plaintiffs usually do not have to pay upfront.
Make sure to ask for a clear estimate of costs during your initial consultation to avoid surprises and to understand how much you can expect to pay.
Top Questions to Ask a Consumer Protection Lawyer
Before hiring a consumer protection lawyer, it’s important to ask questions to ensure they have the experience and skills to handle your case effectively. Key questions include:
-
What experience do you have with consumer protection law?
Ensure the lawyer has specific experience handling cases like yours, whether it involves product liability, fraud, or debt collection issues. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or a contingency 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 for an honest assessment of your case and what outcome you can reasonably expect. -
Have you handled cases like mine before?
Make sure the lawyer has experience dealing with similar legal issues, whether it’s credit report disputes, data breaches, or defective products. -
What is the timeline for resolving my case?
While it can be difficult to predict exact timelines, the lawyer should give you a general idea of how long your case may take to resolve. -
Will you handle my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of your case, so it’s important to know who will be working on your claim.
How to Check the Credibility of a Consumer Protection Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable consumer protection lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Check for experience in consumer protection: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to confirm they specialize in consumer protection law and have handled cases similar to 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 willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their ability to handle consumer protection cases.
- Look for industry affiliations: Membership in organizations like the National Association of Consumer Advocates (NACA) can indicate that the lawyer is committed to protecting consumer rights.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a consumer protection lawyer, come prepared with all relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Details of the product or service in question: Bring any purchase receipts, warranties, or contracts related to the product or service involved in your claim.
- Documentation of your complaint: Provide evidence of your complaint, such as email exchanges with the company, photos of a defective product, or a timeline of events related to the dispute.
- Communication with the business or debt collector: If you’ve communicated with the business or debt collector, bring copies of letters, emails, or phone logs.
- List of questions: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes for your case.
- Information on damages: Be prepared to discuss any financial losses or harm you’ve suffered as a result of the unfair business practices, including medical bills, lost wages, or emotional distress.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer understand your situation more effectively and get the best possible legal advice on how to proceed with your case.
