Mr. Meadows is a genuine caring attorney who takes every measure possible to help his clients. He is friendly and he ease my mind and made filing a Chapter 13 less scary. He has a brilliant staff, especially Mrs. Dalene Kennedy his legal assistant, that helps you understand the process. Mr. Meadows guided my husband and I through every step of the process of our Chapter 13. He helped make a difficult time in our life better, and we are both glad we choose Mr. Meadows.

Jacqueline is the absolute example of how every experience with an attorney should be. From the very 1st phone call , which was really scary to do, the amount of professional and personal attention was exactly what I needed. She listens , she answers every call and email and conducts herself in a court room with such respect and confidence that makes you feel as powerful as her . The amount of time and attention she provided is endless. The amount of respect and pride she provides is admirable . Best experience I ever had .

My family engaged Jacqueline in January to represent us in a CPS investigation after a young relative was placed under a 30-day safety plan. This was our first interaction with CPS. We wanted to use employer-provided services for evaluations and therapy rather than the more onerous services demanded by CPS. CPS threatened numerous times to move the child into foster care. They also threatened a legal motion to participate in their services. They even claimed that they didn't have to talk to a legal representative. We would never have been able to navigate this process without Jacqueline, who is an expert not only in the law, but in the ways that CPS will try to manipulate and threaten. Jacqueline made the case that CPS services and involvement were not needed beyond the 30 days. This was successful, and as of 3 months later, CPS has taken no further action. Jacqueline will fight for you and execute a plan with the highest probability of success. She will navigate the maze of CPS that you can’t see. We are completely satisfied and highly recommend Jacqueline.

I am an international student from India. I received a speeding ticket from the village of Maryville, Illinois. On that day, I didn't speed on purpose; I may have been over the limit by 10 mph. Despite my explanation, the cops gave me a ticket. I informed them that it was my last month of court supervision. Attorney Jessica Koester resolved my case without me having to pay the court, even though I was under court supervision earlier. I was very tense before this, but my mind was completely cleared thanks to Attorney Jessica Koester. Thank you very much, ma'am.

This Law Firm , Atty Tom J.Cleary and his team Jillian and others are beyond exceptional in getting the job done effectively, efficiently, professionally, morally and ethically. My younger sibling and I were in a wrongful, horrific family trust litigation with an incredibly difficult and unreasonable family member. This litigation destroyed our health with its constant unnecessary stress and false accusations day after day which lasted over 3 years. After investing in 7 law firms, Atty Cleary was the only attorney that had the gift of communicating clearly, accurately and following through with what he said he would do. Atty Cleary is by far the most respected attorney I have ever known. He comes with the highest recommendations in dealing with special needs trust and getting problematic estate issues resolved. Thank you Atty Thomas Cleary. You are regarded with the upmost respect in dealing with difficult legal issues with class.

Attorney Max Soi and the Legal Team at Integrity Law Group provided outstanding legal services for a recent Eviction Action. Attorney Soi has an extensive background in Landlord Tenant disputes in King County. Through the expertise provided by Attorney Soi and his firm we were successful in the resolution of our tenant eviction. The eviction process is confusing and difficult to navigate and can be extremely costly without an attorney knowledgeable about the law and required processes and procedures. Do not go it alone - we are extremely appreciative of Attorney Max Soi and Integrity Law Group and highly recommend their services.

I engaged Henshaw Law Firm for a critical child custody case, hoping for expert assistance. Instead, I faced exorbitant charges totaling $42,500, with minimal progress. Their staff, insensitive to my financial constraints as a disabled veteran, nonchalantly cited "the law" as an excuse for their incompetence. They overcharged me for trivial phone calls and allowed a child support order to pass uncontested, despite my inability to pay. Moreover, they falsified documents behind my back, showing blatant disregard for ethics. Their failure to file necessary motions further hindered my access to my son. Avoid Henshaw Law Firm at all costs. They exploit vulnerable clients, providing little to no value while laughing at your plight. A disastrous experience, not worth a single penny. Do NOT RECOMMEND.

I had the opportunity to work with Mehdi on my ex-husband's immigration case, and I am compelled to share my positive experience. Despite facing significant challenges due to my ex-husband's lack of diligence and incorrigible behavior, Mehdi demonstrated remarkable patience, thoroughness, and competence throughout the process. Mehdi's deep understanding of the inner workings of the USCIS and ICE systems was evident from the start. His ability to navigate these layered systems and provide clear guidance was instrumental in moving our case forward, even when setbacks and delays were caused by my ex-husband's irresponsibility. Both my mother-in-law and I tried to support the process as much as possible, and Mehdi's professional demeanor and steadfast dedication were greatly appreciated. From beginning to end, Mehdi's commitment to our case never wavered. He was always available to answer questions and provide updates, ensuring that we were well-informed at every stage. His thorough approach and strategic thinking gave us confidence that we were in capable hands. Though at times he grew displeased and annoyed with the trajectory of our case, and rightfully so. He was often busy and occasionally out of office for certain stents of time. There were times of delayed emails and phone responses, where his no nonsense approach was evident in addressing the issue, the concern and to end the phone call once addressed quite frankly. If you lack patience and understanding of one’s time, especially in pressing matters, you might find these acts upsetting or off putting. For the most part, all things considered, I did not. However, If you seek "yes men" energy, exaggerated conversations and hand holding, this lawyer is probably not for you. Mehdi is compassionate and patient, yet very direct and blunt about what he needs and expects from you. I must add that I came to understand and appreciate a lawyer of his stature, especially given the intensity of the matter. Although the outcome was impacted by factors beyond Mehdi's control, his efforts and representation were nothing short of commendable. I highly recommend Mehdi Cherkaoui to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and diligent immigration lawyer who will go above and beyond to achieve the best possible results. Thank you, Mehdi, for your unwavering support and expertise.

“If I can’t collect it, no one can” this could not be more true! I was awarded several post-divorce judgements, and never received payment. I was referred to Kirk Law, by a former attorney. I contacted the office and spoke with Jonathan Kirk. Within two months of our initial conversation Jonathan had successfully collected 100%. I’m so grateful to Kirk Law, and truly impressed with Jonathan’s expert knowledge of collections and his commitment to the cause. Thank you so much!

I am amazed at the results Pryor Cashman has achieved - some of the cases you hear about in the news lately, the clients who won their case, those were clients of Pryor Cashman. In terms of business deals, Richard C. Leska is great to work with and he has about 30 years experience so I would recommend any M & A work or corporate deals ask for Rich Leska. The whole firm is highly intelligent, highly qualified, and great to work with in terms of providing the best service and achieving the best results!

I can't express enough how grateful I am for DeShawne's outstanding representation during my family’s custody case. From our initial consultation to the final verdict, she demonstrated unmatched dedication, expertise, and compassion. When no other lawyer believed in the case DeShawne did and only with her tireless help were we able to get the verdict we needed to protect the best interests of the children. We couldn’t be happier to have had her on our side. I highly recommend DeShawne to anyone in need of a skilled and caring family lawyer. She is a true advocate for children and families, and I'm incredibly thankful for her support during this challenging time for my family. Thank you, DeShawne, for making a profound difference in my family’s life and their future. Best regards, Christensen Family

What a Debt Collection Lawyer Can Do for You

A debt collection lawyer helps individuals and businesses navigate legal matters related to debt collection. Whether you’re a creditor seeking to recover unpaid debts or a debtor facing aggressive collection actions, a debt collection lawyer can provide valuable assistance. These lawyers help creditors pursue legal action to collect overdue debts and ensure compliance with debt collection laws. On the debtor’s side, they help defend against unlawful collection practices, negotiate repayment plans, or file for bankruptcy if necessary.

If you’re dealing with a debt collection issue, a lawyer can ensure your rights are protected and work toward a resolution that aligns with your financial or business needs.

When Should I Hire a Debt Collection Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a debt collection lawyer if you are facing any of the following situations:

  • For Creditors:
    • Unpaid debts: If you’re a creditor (such as a business or individual) with unpaid invoices, loans, or accounts receivable, a lawyer can help you pursue legal action to recover the debt.
    • Debtor refuses to pay: When a debtor is unwilling or unable to make payments, a lawyer can assist with filing lawsuits, securing judgments, and enforcing those judgments to collect the debt.
    • Negotiating repayment plans: If you’re willing to work with a debtor to arrange a payment plan, a lawyer can negotiate and draft a legally enforceable agreement.
    • Legal representation in court: If a debtor disputes the debt or countersues, a lawyer can represent you in court and ensure your legal interests are protected.
    • Securing liens or garnishments: A lawyer can help you secure liens on a debtor’s property or garnishments on their wages to recover the owed debt.
  • For Debtors:
    • Facing debt collection lawsuits: If you’ve been sued by a creditor or collection agency, a lawyer can represent you in court and help you defend against the claim or negotiate a settlement.
    • Debt collection harassment: If creditors or debt collection agencies are harassing you or violating your rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), a lawyer can help stop the harassment and potentially sue for damages.
    • Negotiating debt settlements: If you owe a significant amount of money but want to avoid bankruptcy, a lawyer can negotiate with creditors to reduce the total amount owed or set up a payment plan.
    • Disputing a debt: If you believe a debt is incorrect or have been wrongfully targeted by debt collectors, a lawyer can help you dispute the claim and provide evidence to resolve the matter.
    • Bankruptcy options: If your debts are overwhelming and you’re unable to repay them, a debt collection lawyer can help you explore bankruptcy as an option for debt relief.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help you protect your financial interests and avoid escalating legal issues.

What Does a Debt Collection Lawyer Do?

A debt collection lawyer provides a variety of services depending on whether they are representing the creditor or the debtor. Their responsibilities often include:

  • For Creditors:
    • Filing lawsuits: A lawyer can file a lawsuit against a debtor who has failed to pay what they owe. This includes preparing and submitting legal documents, representing you in court, and pursuing judgments.
    • Negotiating settlements: If the debtor is willing to settle, the lawyer can negotiate a payment arrangement or reduced settlement that ensures you recover some or all of the debt.
    • Securing judgments and enforcement: After obtaining a court judgment, a lawyer can help enforce it through methods like wage garnishment, bank levies, or property liens.
    • Reviewing contracts and agreements: A lawyer can review your contracts and lending agreements to ensure that they comply with the law and are enforceable if a debtor defaults.
  • For Debtors:
    • Defending against debt collection lawsuits: If you’re being sued by a creditor, a lawyer can challenge the lawsuit, dispute the debt’s validity, or negotiate a more favorable settlement.
    • Stopping harassment: If debt collectors are using unlawful practices to collect a debt (such as threatening you or contacting you excessively), a lawyer can intervene and protect your rights.
    • Negotiating debt relief: A lawyer can negotiate with creditors to reduce the total amount of debt you owe or develop a manageable payment plan that suits your financial situation.
    • Disputing inaccurate debts: If a debt is not valid, a lawyer can help you gather evidence to dispute the claim and prevent further collection actions.
    • Filing for bankruptcy: If your debts are overwhelming, a lawyer can advise you on whether filing for bankruptcy is the best option and help you through the process.

How Are Debt Collection Lawyers Paid?

Debt collection lawyers typically charge for their services in different ways depending on the complexity of the case and whether they represent a creditor or debtor. Common payment structures include:

  • Hourly rate: Many debt collection lawyers charge by the hour, with rates typically ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and the case’s complexity. Hourly fees are common when the lawyer is representing either party in litigation or negotiation.
  • Contingency fee: For creditors, some lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they successfully recover the debt. Their fee is typically a percentage of the recovered amount, usually ranging from 20% to 40%.
  • Flat fee: For specific services, such as reviewing a contract, drafting a demand letter, or defending a straightforward debt collection lawsuit, a lawyer may charge a flat fee.
  • Retainer: For larger or ongoing cases, a lawyer may require a retainer fee ranging from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on the complexity of the case and the expected duration.

It’s important to discuss fees with your lawyer during the initial consultation and understand the total cost of their services before proceeding with your case.

How Much Does a Debt Collection Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a debt collection lawyer depends on whether you are a creditor or debtor, the complexity of the case, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost estimates include:

  • Hourly rates: Most debt collection lawyers charge between $150 and $500 per hour. Complex cases involving litigation or large amounts of money may result in higher legal fees.
  • Contingency fees: If the lawyer works on a contingency basis, they typically charge between 20% and 40% of the recovered amount. For example, if you recover $10,000 and the contingency fee is 30%, the lawyer would take $3,000.
  • Flat fees: For simpler services like drafting a demand letter or responding to a debt collection lawsuit, flat fees may range from $500 to $2,500, depending on the work required.
  • Retainers: For larger or ongoing cases, a lawyer may require a retainer fee ranging from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on the complexity of the case and the expected duration.

Always ask for a detailed cost estimate during your consultation to avoid surprises and ensure that the services fit your budget.

Top Questions to Ask a Debt Collection Lawyer

Before hiring a debt collection lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they have the experience and expertise to handle your case. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with debt collection cases?
    Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether you’re a creditor or debtor.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, on a contingency fee basis, or a flat fee, and ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my case?
    Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and the potential outcomes.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Debt collection cases can take time, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to last, from filing the claim to recovering the debt or resolving the dispute.
  5. What are my legal rights?
    Ask the lawyer to explain your rights as a creditor or debtor, including protections under laws like the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).
  6. Will you personally handle my case?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case.

How to Check the Credibility of a Debt Collection Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable debt collection 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 law and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Look for debt collection experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in debt collection law and have successfully handled 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 ability to handle debt collection cases.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on debt collection matters.
  • Check for certifications or memberships: Look for certifications or memberships in organizations like the National Creditors Bar Association (NCBA) or other relevant associations that focus on debt collection law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a debt collection lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • For Creditors:
    • List of outstanding debts: Bring a detailed list of the debts owed to you or your business, including invoices, contracts, or other supporting documentation.
    • Previous communication with the debtor: Provide copies of any emails, letters, or phone call logs showing attempts to collect the debt.
    • Contracts or agreements: Bring any contracts or agreements related to the debt, as they may be critical in proving your case.
    • Judgment information (if applicable): If you’ve already obtained a court judgment against the debtor, bring the judgment documents and any enforcement attempts.
  • For Debtors:
    • Debt collection letters or notices: Bring any correspondence from creditors or collection agencies, including demand letters and collection notices.
    • Payment records: Provide proof of any payments made toward the debt, including receipts, canceled checks, or bank statements.
    • Debt validation or dispute documentation: If you’ve disputed the debt or requested validation, bring copies of the dispute letters and the creditor’s response.
    • Legal summons or lawsuit documentation: If you’re facing a lawsuit, bring the court summons, complaint, and any legal documents related to the case.

By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your situation more effectively and provide the best legal advice tailored to your needs.
