Mr. Zebrak’s service was quick and accurate. He returned calls and emails promptly. I found his counsel to be on the mark and accurate. His warm demeanor put me at ease immediately. He prepared a separation agreement and new deed for me. Very reasonable. I have verbally recommended him to friends and family. I will use his services again in the near future. Finding Mr. Zebrak was a treasure.

Responds in a timely matter, makes sure that any questions are answered, and actually cares. I felt very at ease with Mr. Esteves as my representation, he is a straight shooter and tells it as it is. I couldn't recommend him anymore!!

JC Estevez and Nicole Naum are phenomenal attorneys. I was accused of a heinous crime that I did not commit at the age of 16. They were extremely professional throughout the entire process. JC and Nicole always gave me the pros and cons of every situation that arose along the way. They spent numerous hours of time preparing every little detail for trial. After almost 4 years I finally had my chance in front of a jury and these two went to work on my behalf like no other. I was found not guilty and thanks to their expertise and believing in me I can now move on with my life. Thank you JC and Nicole.

If you’re looking for a well-respected and highly intelligent Attorney to represent you, there is no need to look any further. I would, without a doubt, highly recommend Ms. Lorrie A. Sinclair, Esquire to anyone seeking legal advice or representation. Ms. Sinclair showed the highest professionalism and expertise with regards to my representation in a traffic case. Ms. Sinclair maintained communication with me from the time I requested her services until we left the court room. With her guidance and suggested recommendations for actions I needed to take prior to my court date, she was able to dramatically decrease my traffic charge as well as all potential fines. She’s definitely on my speed dial in the event I need her services again, or if someone I know needs the services of an excellent Attorney!

Esq. Sinclair aided in supporting my small business with service contract language. She was timely, professional, very knowledgeable, and challenged me to “think out of the box” in developing a comprehensive service-based contracting strategy to support my business relationships. Kudos to Esq. Sinclair and the entire Biberaj, Snow, & Sinclair Law firm for their outstanding achievements, involvement in the community, and excellent professional legal services.

I cannot say enough good things about Jason and his paralegal Jennifer.
I have had a protracted case with Jason going on 6 years now. I'm grateful I have him in my corner. Jason is an expert in this field of law and his command of the subject matter is unquestionable. His advice is always wise and on point. He's reasonable, fair, and interested in finding the best overall solution (for all parties). He is also not afraid to tell you like it is when you need to hear it. He has saved me from myself on multiple occasions.
He's clear, articulate, and efficient in the court room. He has a knack for cutting thru the minutia and homing in on the critical issues and what's necessary and prudent to argue them. And when he gets on a roll, it is amazing to watch, as stated I'm glad he's in my corner!
Jason's fees are reasonable. And it is clear he has my best interests at the forefront and never once has taken any action that could remotely be construed as having his bottom line in mind.
No one wants to need to retain an attorney for such an extended duration but I can honestly say I consider him a friend!
Jennifer is thoughtful, thorough, and meticulous while being accommodating and understanding at the same time. She is always willing to get it done, and is not afraid to hold the client accountable to deadlines ensuring she and Jason can best represent me. She's spent many a night and weekend on my case and told me when I needed to work the weekend too! And like Jason it is unquestionably clear she's got my best interests at heart.
She and Jason make a great team! I couldn't recommend them enough to anyone that needed them! You would be in good hands.

Jason A. Weis is the perfect pick! If you are someone who is going through a contentious child support/divorce and need a top notch lawyer on your side then look no further.
I was lucky to have Jason Weis representing me. Jason, has the ability to assess any difficult situation and provide honest and thorough advice within the scope of the law that is beneficial to the client.
Mr. Weis effortlessly navigated through the minefields that my ex-wife and opposing counsel attempted to lay out. Jason was able to understand the intricacies of my case and responded with a strategic yet realistic action plan that awarded me the outcome my daughter and I needed. I admire Mr. Weis’s calm, professional and eloquent demeanor. He did not wavier to the baseless threats or irate behavior of opposing council but rather took charge and spoke only based on facts.
I truly believe it was Mr. Weis’s professionalism, knowledge, patience and most importantly his virtuous heart that got me through this challenging time. I am eternally grateful and would recommend Mr. Weis to anyone who is seeking assistant with divorce/child support/custody.

Jason handled my very messy divorce. Complicated custody situation, property disputes, police reports, CPS, custody evaluation - just to name a few things that we had to deal with. Jason always had the situation under control. He will never promise you results that he cannot guarantee, he is very realistic and practical. In the end, Jason was a superstar during the trial. He had an impressive mastery of all the confusing facts related to my case and ultimately I got the result that I've was looking for on all accounts. Jason's team is also very professional and easy to deal with. Highly recommend!

When we needed to learn how to manage our sister's anticipated inheritance, it didn't take long to settle on the Farr Law Firm for advice. Their reputation as the experts in elder law and estate planning preceded them. After a thorough review of our situation, they revised my mother's revocable living trust and prepared a Special Needs Trust for my sister. There was some urgency as my mother was nearing 100 years of age. Thanks to their knowledge and depth of experience they were able to complete the work in a matter of days. Trusts are complicated and in the course of administering them, I've had numerous questions for Mr. Farr or a member of his staff. Without fail, responses are clear, comprehensive and delivered without delay. Working with Farr, I know I can count on things being done correctly and to our best advantage - and that adds up to great peace of mind.

Originally we chose Evan Farr and his law firm based on his clients' reviews. Our initial appointment with Evan only confirmed all the excellent reviews we have read. Three specific qualities set Evan apart from other attorneys practicing Elder Law: his vast knowledge, excellent listening skills and offering of continuous education for his many clients. We much appreciated Evan's help in navigating the complex and stressful process of setting up our legal documents. We also appreciate Sara Entis' efforts to finalize this colossal task and to make the important signing appointment totally flawless. In addition, we want to mention Sierra Kolasa's willingness to help every time we needed assistance. Our entire experience only proved that choosing Evan and his firm was the right decision. We highly recommend Evan and his firm to everyone.

I decided to choose Mr. Hirsch after seeing his reviews online and the amount of success he has brought to his clients in the past. Brian is a knowledgeable, experienced, humble, trust worthy, and a patient lawyer to work with. Through out the entire last year, Brian has never failed to satisfy me by giving me information I needed to be prepare ahead of time. He would answer my questions, file all documents, give me head up all in a timely manner. During mediation, I was Uncertain and unaware of many issues which that he patently explained to me until I was Satisfied with his answers. He gave me examples of similar cases and success rate which put my mind at ease. I am very happy with my divorce settlement agreement regarding custody, visitations, support, assets division, property division, etc. I was saved the hassle to go to trial and by having a successful mediation. Brian is not only persuasive, knowledgeable yet an firm attorney, he also charges a very reasonable price. This combination is hard to find and I was lucky to have that benefit. I would in a heart beat recommend Brian to anyone seeking an attorney. You can not go wrong with him!

Brian is calm, keen, and fair. Going through a divorce is horrible and having an attorney that one can trust completely is key. Brian has years of experience and understands the law and the nature of people. My recommendation would be to hire him, and then listen to him and let him do his job. Brian is very respected by the judges and other attorneys (even those on the opposing side) which speaks volumes about his work ethic and personal character.

Through 18 months pre-trial preparation, Eric Leckie consistently demonstrated his knowledge of Virginia law and thoroughly researched the many nuances of my particular case. He skillfully coordinated his defense by meeting with many people in the various offices instrumental in ensuring a fair trial for a very unusual and difficult case. He worked tirelessly and effectively with the Sheriff’s office, doctors and medical specialists, and prosecutor ‘s office to make the outcome of our situation as good as it could possibly be. Both he and the entire Invictus Law staff were supportive, responsive and understanding during this difficult time. I can unconditionally recommend him to anyone needing legal assistance.

I met Michael Cary almost 3 years ago, and he has made such a huge impact on my life in so many ways.

I have had the pleasure of learning and interning under Michael, and he has inspired and pushed me to be my absolute best. I start law school this Fall, and Michael is a huge part of that. If you’re looking to learn about the legal field and chase your dreams like I did, he is always so eager to help young aspiring attorneys. He cares. He works hard. And he wants to win for you. I’ve never seen or worked under a more kind-hearted and compassionate attorney. He has so many resources and connections to give you the absolute best service he can.

Almost 2 years ago today I made the very difficult decision to end my 2 decades of marriage after my "I do" became an "I don't". The associated legal process of separation and divorce in North Carolina is complex; however consulting with and ultimately hiring Theresa E. Viera was a life-saving move on my part. Theresa is a great teacher and explains each part of the process in a manner that allows you to make the best decisions possible during a highly emotional time. She is well respected in the community and the courthouse and runs a firm full of legal experts who are life-saving. I ended my process successfully and could not have done so without Theresa and her team guiding me, checking in on me, and ushering me into the next phase of my life. Although divorce is a sad situation, she led me to a place of celebration. I really could not have asked for a better situation.

I was very lucky to find Ms Viera and her team. They were a pleasure to deal with, provided excellent and timely information and communication, and assisted me in every step of the process. They assisted me through a couple of bumps in the road perfectly and even in a time where it is very difficult to make a personal connection I felt their empathy, and that was greatly appreciated. Clear and concise through the whole process, made it easy to trust them to get the resolution requested.

I am a resident of another state and Theresa Viera represented me in a case in North Carolina. I was unfamiliar with various antiquated laws in N.C. I initially hired a different attorney/firm and that experience was awful. I was quite scared about what could happen with my case and I luckily found new representation in Theresa. What a difference maker. She was well-versed on the specific laws and right away made me feel less stressed. She was compassionate, thorough, attentive, and took her time to make sure I understood every nuance of the case, as well as my options. I could not have asked a better attorney to act on my behalf. Theresa guided me through the process with professionalism and kindness, and helped me reach a reasonable resolution. She took away a lot of my anxiety about the unknown and was a terrific advocate for me. I wish I would have located her sooner and hired her from the beginning. I highly recommend Theresa!

I had the opportunity one day to speak to Richard in passing. Not knowing that Richard was a divorce lawyer, I asked if he knew a divorce lawyer. Richard informed me that he was in fact a divorce lawyer. After a brief conversation, I hired Richard to handle my divorce. Richard was thorough in explaining the divorce procedure as well as mine and my soon to be ex wife's roll in these procedures. Richard was timely in returning my calls or emails. As well as taking the time to address each of my questions and making sure I fully understood the response.
Richard made this stressful process as easy as possible. I would recommend Richard to anyone needing this service.

If you are looking for a top caliber lawyer that is reasonable and understands her clients' needs, then Ms. Baker should be your top choice. I recently worked with Ms. Baker in the drafting, negotiation and execution of a pre-marital agreement; a situation that is often very difficult to navigate. She was responsive, extremely thorough and her zealous advocacy always took in to consideration the outcomes I desired.
As a fellow lawyer, I have experienced many situations in which zealous advocacy has served only to further frustrate relations and outcomes for clients. And while zealous advocacy is often intended to achieve the best result for the respective client, it can have the opposite effect and drive parties further apart.
Ms. Baker took the time to understand what I wanted and the results I sought to achieve. She was measured in her approach, and while her counsel always contemplated a best case scenario for me, it was balanced with an understanding of the outcomes I communicated to her I sought to achieve, irrespective of whether those outcomes were most advantageous to me.
Ms. Baker is high caliber client-centric lawyer and an expert in this practice area. I would recommend her to anyone needing legal services in this space.

I had the pleasure of working with Emily on a recent separation, and I believe that she got the best and the most realistic settlement for me. She is an excellent communicator, knowledgeable about the specific laws, and will fight for what you deserve until the end. She also has worked in the DC area for a long time, so it helps that she has contacts within the legal system and outside which she can leverage to get the best results.

First off, Emily is compassionate and easy to work with. She is both detail-oriented and focused on the big picture.

Emily recommended a great mediator who worked with me and my ex to draft a parenting plan. She promptly responded to my calls and emails. Finally, her knowledge and experience was evident in her advice and drafting of legal documents.

Corrie was incredible to work with, you can believe everything they say on their website. She treated me and my divorce case with compassion, respect, understanding, and honesty. In my opinion, honesty shouldn't be understated in today's world. I happily settled in mediation. She was very well prepared for any eventuality that could come up. We used most of her preparation too. The opposing attorney wasn't as well prepared, and it made all the difference in the world for me and my case. I feel for anyone going through a divorce but very highly recommend Corrie Sirkin and Nova Legal Professionals!

I had my first consultation (Zoom) with Attorney Pfeiffer yesterday, and our meeting went very well! Attorney Pfeiffer appeared to be very knowledgeable, experienced, and especially thorough about the entire process of filing bankruptcy, which helped to put me at ease.
During our consultation (which I was given a choice of face-to-face or online), Attorney Pfeiffer gave me a step-by-step rundown of the bankruptcy process, which covered everything from filing a Chapter 13 or a Chapter 7, a rundown of cost and payment options, the documents that would be needed, as well as available services offered (once bankruptcy completed) that would help rebuild my credit/credit score...

I consulted with Rachel twice through my Employee Assistance Program (EAP) and retained her services, knowing that she would cover all aspects of my divorce proceedings. She provided education, adjunct resources, support, and transparency throughout. I truly could not have done this on my own and Rachel quickly responded to any questions/concerns I’ve had. Divorce is not an easy process but Rachel’s knowledge and expertise made this a seamless transition. I would definitely recommend Rachel Virk if you’re seeking a thorough, direct, and results-driven attorney. Great experience!

This is my second time writing a review for Ms. Virk, the first of which was under the name FDB. After retaining Ms. Virk, she delivered the most favorable outcome that I could imagine. She even directly helped both of my children, writing them letters for school on multiple occasions. She is a very caring lawyer, but more importantly a very caring person. She truly is invested in every one of her clients, and that attitude transcends any work she could do. Not to mention, she does amazing work. There is not a lawyer I could imagine that would positively affect me more than Mrs. Virk has. She is wonderful and I unequivocally recommend her to anyone in need of a compassionate divorce lawyer. Like I said in my first review, she is a warrior.

I had a delicate situation when looking for a divorce lawyer as my now ex-wife was labeled terminally ill. Knowing how that appeared, I was upfront with Mrs. Kosub who heard my whole story before agreeing to take me as a client. She understood my position and did her best to represent me. Throughout the entire process, she kept explanations simple and reassured me any time I was worried during the trial. She was very professional and kept a level head, which helped me maintain my cool as well.

Morris-Williams overall knows their stuff, is organized and communicative in a timely manner. Sarah knows the law. She does not mince words, but she has a heart. She'll look at the facts of your case, measure them against the law, tell you the truth and fight hard for you if you retain her. She is a woman of conviction, she's trustworthy and honest...and let's face it, that's hard to find in this profession. Family law is a dirty business and Sarah doesn't play in the dirt.

Sarah was amazing for me! I am a single mom that was seeking full custody of my son. She didn’t bill me frivolously and was extremely professional. She prepared for me all situations and I never felt like my hopes were too high or how I was felt was unreasonable. I will recommend her to anyone that might need a lawyer.

We had an incredible experience with Kathy! She's not only super knowledgeable but also really attentive to every detail of our case. What truly made her stand out was her commitment to fairness and respect for everyone involved. It was crucial for us to handle things amicably, especially considering the best interests of our child, and Kathy nailed it. Unlike some lawyers we talked to before choosing her, she never encouraged us to play dirty. Her integrity was through the roof, and she delivered great results, getting us everything we asked for while always prioritizing what was best for our child above all else. For anyone looking for a lawyer who absolutely has your back, achieves great outcomes, and keeps your child’s welfare at heart, we can’t recommend her enough.

Thank you to Kathy, I feel blessed to have Kathy by my side during my divorce journey. My experience was unique and demanded an extra level of attention and care, which Kathy provided. She dotted my i's and crossed my t's, steering me towards a better outcome. What truly sets Kathy apart is her genuine care, attentive listening, and vested interest in her clients' well-being. She's not just a legal advocate; she becomes apart of the battle (apart of my new family) who fights tirelessly when necessary, yet knows when to pause and reassess. Kathy's knack for thinking outside the box and asking insightful questions prompted me to stop and reconsider MANY aspects of my case.
Needing an attorney is never a joyful experience, but having someone like Kathy in your corner makes all the difference. Kathy, your unwavering belief in ME means the world. Thank you!

I retained Jennifer Miller to represent me in a civil suit, and am so glad I did. Throughout a year long, very frustrating and extremely traumatic process, Ms. Miller was the light at the end of every tunnel; Jennifer is honest, transparent, and realistic but also extremely compassionate and genuine. Ms. Miller and her team at Miller Law Group worked with my co defendant and I at every turn to ensure we were represented at the very highest level, they were extremely well prepared, and Jennifer can see right through the BS and has the ability and experience to shut it down.
Thank you to the entire team for representing us so well, thank you for your kindness, and thank you for seeing us through to the end. Thank you for being real people and meeting us where we were, thank you for defending our reputations. Thank you.

I was in a truly hopeless situation before I was referred to Ms. Miller by a coworker. My daughter was in a terrible, volatile environment with a mentally unstable mother who was failing to perform basic motherly duties. I felt powerless to the situation. Jennifer was immediately encouraging from our first phone call, and jumped on getting the necessary papers filed for emergency custody. She worked with me and my family to get my daughter permanently out of the situation and living with me.
She was able to articulate the situation to the judge perfectly, as well as work with the judge to formulate a parenting plan that includes not only protections for my daughters wellbeing as she grows and is allowed more time with her mother, but also allows me, as the custodial parent, to monitor her mothers mental state. The plan requires regular updates to the court and to me about her mental health treatment, and protects my daughter if things take a bad turn in that regard. My daughter is thriving and happy today with a healthy routine, and none of this would’ve been possible without Jennifer’s extensive knowledge of the WA State legal system.
I always felt like I was being taken care of with Ms. Miller. She is a powerful force for justice and was excellent at explaining the process as time went on. She kept me updated throughout, but did a tremendous amount of work behind the scenes filing papers and drafting documents for the case. She always made herself available if I had questions about the case, and gave me great advice on how to address certain situations with my daughter’s mother as they presented themselves.
I will forever be grateful to Jennifer for everything she’s done for me and my little girl. Her can-do attitude is infectious, and her vast knowledge of the legal system put me at ease during the most difficult time in my life.

Last year I hired Kirkland attorney Glen St. Louis after my husband and his attorney got me to sign divorce papers saying that I would receive a 35k judgment on "distribution of property" in a divorce if I have up a claim for spousal maintenance. My husband had agreed to take all the credit card debt which accumulated over 17 years of marriage. after I signed the documents, I decided it was still best that I see an attorney to review what I thought was a good deal. I was shocked when Mr. St. Louis explained that it appeared my husband had tricked me into a "35K Judgment" because it was clear from all the paperwork and debt that he took, that my husband was going to declare bankruptcy when the divorce was final to get out of the credit card debt and to get out of paying the 35K judgment. Mr. St Louis also explained to me that it was practically impossible to pull my ex-husband into court for contempt of property distribution award because he explained the family law did not allow that. In other words I was about ready to lose everything I thought I was getting in the divorce, and there was absolutely nothing I could do about it. My ex-husband later admitted to me that this was indeed his intentions. I had to spend over 5K to Mr. St. Louis to get out of the agreement, and with hard work and ingenuity, Mr. St. Louis got everything tossed out of court and forced a settlement on my husband and his attorney in my favor to re-structure my 35K bankrupt able property award into spousal maintenance, plus attorney fees. I could not have been happier. My regret was that I did not consult with an attorney before I got myself into the problem, but I was very very happy and satisfied that Mr. St. Louis got the agreement thrown out and a whole new settlement that my ex-husband could not discharge himself out of in bankruptcy. He now has to pay me court ordered spousal maintenance until the total sum of 35K is paid in full. Mr. St. Louis is very good in court and knows how to weave the facts and tell the story of a client's case into the process of the law to the court and best represent the client very well in court. I now receive monthly installment of spousal maintenance I never would have received without Mr. St Louis help. I got the additional small bonus justice was done and my ex-husband is very angry with what Mr. St. Louis accomplished for me. I would hire Mr. St. Louis in an instant if I ever needed legal services. I highly recommend his skills and talent to anyone with family law problems.

My divorce in King County Superior Court is finally done and I am thankful to my attorney, Glen St.Louis as he managed to get me a parenting plan that protected my daughter and got me a lot more in property settlement proceeds than I ever could have imagined. Mr. St.Louis is a very cerebral long term planner, yet he was very tenacious when he had to be, and knows how to think outside of the box. I’m a mom with a daughter that is nearly a teen-ager and had no experience with the family law courts or the way the system works. Mr. St.Louis explained it every step of the way. I had all sorts of nasty and false accusations toward me, and Mr. St.Louis knew how to disarm the untruths and lies. He was very thorough and thoughtful and knows how to deal with challenges. He understands human behavior which is a big plus in dealing with family law issues. He could almost predict every one of my husbands or his lawyer’s dirty tricks and was always prepared for them. My former husband was a pain in the caboose nearly the entire case and threw three different attorneys at me, and each time they threw a curve ball at Mr. St.Louis he treated it as a form of exercise and never got thrown off his game. It didn’t matter what pitch they threw, he knew how to hit it right back at them with more zing and spin. Mr. St.Louis ”responds” rather than “reacts” to things and does not let his buttons get pushed. He’s calm and has a sense of humor which helps. It was apparent at each step in my case (including at hearings and mediation) that he was at least two steps ahead of my husband’s attorneys in knowing what had to be done to place the advantages in my favor. He did not charge me for every meeting and phone call like other attorneys do and for that I am thankful. Mr. St.Louis is talented and disciplined lawyer. If I needed an attorney ever again, he will be the one I want on my team. I enthusiastically recommend him. You will be served well. One Happy Mother

I make this well earned referral for my former attorney, Glen St.Louis and his law firm in my divorce. They obtained for me 50% time with my son and daughter. The fact that I do not have to pay child support is also a plus because I do financially provide for my kids, but the BIG thing for me is that I get to be a highly involved father with my children; something I was unsure of two years ago. Glen worked very hard, tirelessly and intelligently in representing me and turning around a situation for me. He gave me great advice and was always probing to come up with the best result he could get for me. He charged a reasonable rate and worked with me to be sure I’d weather the litigation storm. He knoew how to lean into the negative things and turn them positive. Glen is a planner and he and his staff were very helpful in guiding me with tips on how not to shoot myself in the foot which is easy to do in emotional situation like family law. He gave me tips on how to get along with my estranged spouse and to try to turn things positive in raising our children together. He’d politely challenge me on my thinking, and I learned a lot about myself in how I dealt with things. When I adjusted my attitude, my spouse seemed to notice and her attitude toward everything changed and it helped big time in getting a great parenting plan for our kids. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of understanding the human behavior aspect of divorce and feeling like you are losing your family, and all the fear it causes. Glen did much to give me a different perspective, and yet still stood up for me against my ex wife and her law firm with politeness, professionalism and determination. His law firm is interested in what is best for children and he does not play bulls*hit in that regard. He may be a little demanding of his clients, but it is because the law firm actually cares about children and doing the right thing to be sure that the client turns out to be the best parent they can be. I’ve never had a law firm before that goes the extra lengths. I could not be any more happy than I am right now to be a big part of my children’s lives. I highly recommend the services of attorney Glen St.Louis, and his law firm for any family law related legal matters a person may be experiencing. If I ever need help again, Glen St.Louis will be the attorney I turn to. Signed; A Very Happy Father 2022

Marcia Stewart represented me for family court. From the moment I spoke with Marcia, she put my fears at ease, and brought a sense of calm, common sense, knowledge, fairness, and compromise to our situation. In court, she expressed our situation so eloquently and organized, and her knowledge and understanding of the legal system was amazing. When you are in a position of having to search for an attorney, finding the “right” attorney is key, and can be a very difficult task. Marcia Stewart not only exceeded my expectations with representation, but she was my personal advocate. The service she provided my family was priceless!

Since my divorce it was very difficult adjusting to the fact that I wouldn't get to see my son everyday like I was used too. In the beginning I worked six days a week so when I was served with custody papers from my sons mother I had no way of getting around anything because of my job. Every other weekend really took a toll on me. Constantly calling my sons mother trying to work out a schedule to see him here and there besides every other weekend always ended in a argument, followed by a hang-up, and "NO" answer when I tried to call back. This literally drained me of my life, and sense of self, and I was lost. So I got a better job with a flexible schedule that could possibly help my situation.I thought "now all I needed was to find a good lawyer". I found two different lawyers and payed my "consultation fees" to both. I got the same results. They didn't even act like they wanted to hear it and didn't care to help. So basically I had nothing. I was so disappointed. One day I was talking with a friend about it and he told me to contact Marcia Stewart. He said she is the best and is fair and honest. Well that is exactly what I did and I just have to say that it was one of the best decisions that I have ever made it my life. She got everything worked out for me. I now feel like I have my life back and can be the father I have always dreamed of being to my son. Thank you Marcia, you changed my life so much.

Simply put, I had a complex case that required lots of detailed review and evidence. Marcia and her staff took the time to understand the situation and prepared the evidence to make a potentially messy situation very clear. Her representation not only gave me the confidence to fight for my parental rights, but also won those rights back. Would I recommend her? Without a doubt!!

What a Family Law Lawyer Can Do for You
A family law lawyer provides legal services related to family relationships, including marriage, divorce, child custody, and adoption. Family lawyers help clients navigate emotionally charged legal issues, providing guidance and representation in disputes that affect spouses, children, and parents. Whether you're going through a divorce, seeking custody of your children, or drafting a prenuptial agreement, a family law lawyer ensures your rights are protected and your interests are represented.
Family law attorneys often handle sensitive matters and offer objective legal advice, helping clients reach fair outcomes either through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
When Should I Hire a Family Law Lawyer?
Hiring a family law lawyer is beneficial in several situations, especially when legal matters involve close personal relationships. Common reasons to hire a family law lawyer include:
- Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.
- Child custody and visitation disputes: If you and your co-parent can't agree on custody or visitation, a lawyer can represent your interests and work toward a solution that benefits your children.
- Child support: Whether you’re seeking child support or defending against a claim, a lawyer can help ensure the appropriate amount is calculated and enforced.
- Prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: A lawyer can help draft or review agreements that protect your assets in case of divorce.
- Adoption: Family law lawyers guide you through the legal process of adoption, ensuring that all requirements are met.
- Domestic violence or restraining orders: If you're a victim of domestic violence or being falsely accused, a lawyer can help you obtain or challenge protective orders.
- Paternity cases: If there are questions about the paternity of a child, a lawyer can help establish or dispute legal fatherhood.
Hiring a lawyer early can prevent issues from escalating, and they can offer you the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome in emotionally charged situations.
What Does a Family Law Lawyer Do?
A family law lawyer provides a wide range of services depending on your specific legal needs. Their responsibilities may include:
- Advising on legal rights and options: Helping you understand your legal rights regarding divorce, child custody, support, and other family law issues.
- Filing legal documents: Drafting and filing petitions, motions, and agreements with the court, such as divorce papers, custody agreements, or support orders.
- Representing clients in court: Arguing your case in front of a judge if a settlement can’t be reached through negotiation or mediation.
- Mediation and negotiation: Assisting with alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation, to reach agreements on issues like custody, property division, and support without going to trial.
- Enforcing court orders: Helping you enforce court orders related to child support, alimony, or custody if the other party fails to comply.
- Drafting prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: Creating agreements that protect your assets in the event of a divorce.
- Handling adoption proceedings: Ensuring that the legal process of adoption is followed, from filing paperwork to finalizing the adoption in court.
How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?
Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:
- Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
- Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
- Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.
The exact cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure, which should be discussed upfront.
How Much Does a Family Law Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a family law lawyer varies based on factors such as the lawyer's experience, the location, and the complexity of your case. Here are some general cost guidelines:
- Hourly rates: Family law lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
- Flat fees: For simpler cases, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.
- Retainers: For more complex matters, such as contested divorces or custody battles, lawyers may charge a retainer ranging from $2,500 to $10,000 or more. The lawyer will bill against the retainer for the work they do on your case.
- Additional costs: You may also be responsible for additional costs, such as filing fees, mediation fees, or expert witness fees.
Always ask for a clear breakdown of the lawyer’s fees and any additional expenses during your consultation.
Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer
Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:
-
What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption. -
How will you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved. -
What are the possible outcomes of my case?
An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case. -
What is your approach to resolving disputes?
Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals. -
How long do you expect my case to take?
While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases. -
Who will be handling my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work, so make sure you understand who will be your main point of contact.
How to Check the Credibility of a Family Law Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable family law lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:
- Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and is in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on websites like Avvo, Google, or Martindale-Hubbell. Previous clients can give you insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and success in family law cases.
- Request references: Ask the lawyer for references from past clients who can speak to their experience with the lawyer.
- Review their website or professional profile: Look at the lawyer’s background, case history, and areas of focus to ensure they have substantial experience in family law.
- Look for professional memberships: Membership in reputable organizations, such as the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), can indicate a lawyer's expertise and dedication to family law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a family law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:
- Relevant documents: Bring any documents related to your case, such as marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, financial records, custody agreements, or court orders.
- List of assets and debts: For divorce cases, prepare a detailed list of all assets (e.g., homes, bank accounts, retirement funds) and debts (e.g., mortgages, loans, credit card balances).
- Details of the family issue: Provide a written summary of the situation, including key dates and facts related to your divorce, custody dispute, or support issue.
- Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes.
- Your goals: Be prepared to discuss your objectives, such as custody arrangements, property division, or spousal support, so the lawyer understands your priorities.
Being organized and clear about your situation will help the lawyer evaluate your case more effectively and offer the best advice for moving forward.
