I called the number expecting to speak to a paralegal or a Receptionist to set up a consult. Instead I spoke directly to Matt. We went pretty much right into a consult. He listened to me, reviewed what I told him and offered extremely helpful advice. Unfortunately, Matt can not handle the complexities of my case(mostly family law), but he did suggest some other attorneys and gave me some great advice. I reached out to Matt a few days later to ask if he could send me some documents I had a hard time finding online. Matt promptly responded back and emailed the documents over to me. I really appreciated how personal he was. He seemed very straightforward and honest. I would have loved to have him handle my case, but I understand the reasons he couldn't. I will definitely use Matt in the future(God forbid I need him)

I just briefly spoke to Matt over the phone about my concern with a possible case. And his response time was amazingly quick. He spoke to me very nice and professional and offered me in depth advice without even being compensated. If I ever have a legal issue about anything his number is the 1 I wil dial.

Matt represented me in a case that (like most) was a combination of the legal situation and the emotions connected to it. From the first time we spoke, Matt immediately understood my needs and my approach to the situation, and respected me from the start. He listened to my thoughts, answered (and at times, anticipated!) my many, many questions, and honestly made me feel as if I was his most important case and client. Scheduling time to meet was never an issue, and he met with me a couple of times prior to the actual court date. In addition, Matt was always available by text, and understood my need to reach out whenever a thought, concern, or question popped into my head. And he always addressed any and all thoughts, concerns, and questions. Matt provides a perspective that incorporates not only the defense side of the matter, but is also able to anticipate how the opposing side will approach the matter. Due to his expertise, experience, and excellent communication skills with the various parties involved, we were able to get a resolution to the case that was as positive as it could have been.

Lori handled my divorce and I am blessed to have had such a caring and competent attorney. During my difficult time when I couldn't think clearly the one thing I was sure of was that she was going to fight for me and I would be ok. Her knowledge of the law never ceased to amaze me. She is incredible and will fight for you. Her confidence and professionalism is top notch. Lori answered all of my calls and emails quickly. Lori acted quickly in every aspect of my divorce. Moving forward I will consider her a friend. She treated me with respect and made me feel so relaxed during a terrible time in my life. I would recommend Lori Bowen to my family and friends every day! I can say without a doubt you will not regret giving her a call!

I hired Lori to handle my divorce. She gave me more information during my free consultation than any other attorney (of several I contacted.) Lori is very knowledgeable and has alot of experience; she knows the court system and has worked with many of the other attorneys. She is very professional and takes charge of the process especially when the other party is dragging their feet. She is focused at meetings and is very good at keeping all on task and getting things done. She provides information and her professional opinion , but always asked me what I wanted to do. She is very responsive to emails and phone calls and immediately shared communication from the other party with me so I always knew what was going on. She handles everything and guides you through the whole process and helps you achieve your the best outcome. I highly recommend this attorney as she is proactive and keeps the process moving.

I wish Lynn still practiced law. I have been in the other side of him in the past and he was very good at what he did. I hunted him down and was fortunate enough to have him do a consultation for child custody with myself and my mom on video chat. He took so much time and care and answered ALL of our questions. He then pointed us in the direction of a wonderful attorney who is also amazing at what she does. Everything worked out in a timely fashion and both very reasonably priced. He also responds quickly to your emails. Thank you so very much!

I had the pleasure of working with Mark Cassell from Twyford Law Office. As soon as I started working with Mark he made sure everything I needed to get my life back was his priority. He got my apartment back within the first couple of weeks of working with him when prior to that I was out of my apartment for several months. He was very approachable and answered all my questions easily. His whole team communicated perfectly to me and sent me copies of everything. They responded to my emails and questions fast. they always made me feel like they had my back. Mark is phenomenal when he is talking with prosecutor and Judge he holds himself in a very professional manner. I couldn't recommend him and his team enough.

I hired Matthew Dudley not once, but twice! I have had prior representation several years ago, and it was nothing like what I received from Dudley. He is extremely direct and very blunt, he is going to tell you exactly how it is and not what you want to hear or what is going to make you feel better at that moment in time. After the emotion wears off, you will sit back and realize they were things you needed to accept and needed to hear. His representation style is aggressive. He doesn’t want to waste time or listen to the BS. He wants to get right to the point and say it how it is. This was very hard for me at times to hear, but it was the truth. This man will not let you down. Dudley is extremely intelligent, knows the law, and is a bulldog in the courtroom. God forbid I ever have to go through any other kind of court proceedings again Matthew Dudley is the only lawyer I would ever consider. He works so hard, on every case and in my personal opinion is by far the best lawyer in town. Not hiring Dudley for your own representation would be risking going against him on the opposing side and I promise you that is not a position you want to put yourself in. Hire Matthew Dudley, it will be the best decision you ever make.

Mr. Dudley was my lawyer for 3 + years and will be my future lawyer when the time comes. My case was a really tricky and sometimes complicated one. We were fighting my abusive ex and dealing with the case being even more complicated due to the ex being military court martialed and much of their investigation couldn’t be released to me or my lawyer. He handled the situation beautifully though, and quickly learned how to handle some of the information coming from the military. The ex’s civilian lawyer was persistent and a snake in the grass. He pulled every thing he could and put me through hell, but once again Mr. Dudley did an amazing job handling him and all the many many court hearings. Yes, he’s a little rough around the edges. He’s not your therapist, he’s not going to sugarcoat things; he’s to the point and hates wasting time. He’s blunt and gets the job done. He’s amazing to watch in court and he slammed dunked won my case. I definitely want him in my corner and would hate to be going against him. All in all, he was a blessing to me and my kids. I will ALWAYS recommend him and definitely trust him as my lawyer to take care of things.

My sincere thanks to Malachi and Judson for doing a fantastic job in handling my car accident case.This was my first (and hopefully only) experience filing a lawsuit and I was unfamiliar with the entire process and didn't know what to expect. Malachi was very professional, but genuinely empathetic, competent and most importantly, honest. He did not set false expectations and he was very patient, taking care to explain every step of the process to me so I was able to make informed decisions. Everyone at the Daws Law Firm was professional, courteous, and extremely helpful. They took care of all the stressful phone calls and made all of my appointments to make an already horrific situation as painless as possible! When I had questions, no matter what they were, they responded quickly by telephone or email. For my case, I worked specifically with Attorney Malachi Daws. He was knowledgeable, assertive when necessary and required, and always always patient with my many questions. HE IS AS CARING AND SINCERE AS HE IS A SKILLED PROFESSIONAL. I highly recommend this Firm " They won't disappoint! THANK YOU DAWS LAWFIRM! I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME, EXPERIENCE, AND YOUR TRUSTWORTHY AND INTELLIGENT NATURE!”

Irene explained everything in detail what trust do we need and how it is different from probate, etc.. I had a lot of questions and she was super patient to answer all of them in detail. After she prepared our documents, we reviewed them, I had a few changes. I was super impressed in the amount of details that went to our trust and other documents that we needed.

Extremely happy with Irene and her team's services! She helped me with a complicated prenuptial agreement. All the work was done in a fast and efficient manner. My calls and emails were answered by Irene and her staff quickly. One cool thing that I have enjoyed is that Law Offices of Irene S. Gold is using a client management portal - where I could log in any time at my convenience to check on the case progress, message Irene and her staff - and also to view and pay invoices. I was so worried this prenup would cost me a lot - because I do not have any experience working with lawyers - but, surprisingly, my final bill was very reasonable. I am now happily married and if I had to do it all over again - I would come back to Ms. Gold without any hesitation!

It was crazy how we met. Todd was an appointed attorney on my son's case and before I got to meet him in person. I had a client of his come into my non-profit organization to do court ordered community service. The client asked if I could fax over my information to his lawyer to show where he would be doing his community service hours at and duties. When I asked for his attorney information, the client said Todd Leventhal and I said WOW we was just appointed him as counsel for my son however we haven't met yet. What a small world. Needless to say, we finally met Mr Leventhal in person and he was very professional, told us straight up about my son's case and advised us on what way he was going to represent him and what we should expect. Todd didn't sugar code anything, he was straight forward and delivered on what he said he was going to do. Todd arranged a plea deal that made it possible for my son to be able to come home and be with his family. My son was facing 27 years to life and Todd had him out in less than 5 years. My son is now working and finishing his classes to earn a certificate in welding. If you are looking for an attorney that is a realist and keeps it real. I would suggest you contact this man because he really goes to bat for his clients. We sent plenty of referrals his way and everyone was happen with the outcome.

Words simply aren’t enough to describe what I’ve earned in life because of this man. His professionalism, human nature, and decorum are just some of his beautiful attributes he brings to the court room. He assessed and directed my entire approach and was spot on with my expected outcome. Through laying out the facts and showing my credibility Ted fought for mw to have joint custody of my son. No tricks, no gimmicks. Just the law, and his excellent reasoning and approach granted me everything I could have asked for. I have a voice and coachable moments now with my son whom I wasn’t able to with prior to finding Ted.

How do you find the words to describe the worth of your quality of life? The worth of your children’s future and best interest? The worth of less conflict and stress? The worth of your safety, sleep, time, and financial means? Divorce and custody matters can be life altering. One choice can greatly change the course and outcome. Making the right choices are difficult when you are scared, vulnerable, or facing the complex issues that are common during a family law matters. However, the single MOST IMPORTANT choice you will make in a family law matter is who you choose to represent you. I had somebody that had my back and I didn’t have to fight alone. This whole process they made it so comforting and helped me through a nightmare of a time. They were professional and did everything in a very timely manner.

Tonya Gibbs Penn is the exception, not the rule. Not only did she have tremendous compassion with our case, but she also proved to be a brilliant attorney who demonstrates a true interest in her clients and their cases. We live in Nashville and wanted someone to represent us who would really care about our case. Trust was an important factor because our case was in Virginia and we’re in Tennessee, about ten hours from court. Ms. Penn not only made sure that we understood the specifics of our current case, but she also explained what we would need to expect going forward. She never ignored any communication or kept us guessing. She was forthright and highly responsive. More importantly, no one else would’ve been so willing to peel back the layers of the case and ask the questions that she asked in order to get the best information to help us better prepare for the future. As we look to 2021, we hope to return to Tonya Gibbs Penn for family law representation and know that if we have her on our side, we’ll be able to enter court with the assurance that she will be fighting for us the whole way. If there’s ever been a God-send in a legal battle, Ms. Penn was and is a true blessing to our family. Even now, a day later, we’re still talking about how lucky we were to find her. I highly recommend Tonya Gibbs Penn to everyone out there who needs a Virginia lawyer. She far exceeded any and all expectations.

Kayla is competent, kind and honest. What else could you ask for in a lawyer. If you read through her reviews they are almost all five stars for a reason. When I first saw all the five star reviews I thought they might be fake, but after working with Kayla I can tell you they are not. Kayla works incredibly hard and like many other people have mentioned she makes herself available. On average I probably only had to wait 2 to 3 days for a response. If it ever took longer it was because she was either in mediation or trial. Kayla even made time to talk to me over the phone when realistically we could have completed what we needed over email. If I remember correctly, 95% of Kayla's clients settle in mediation and my case settled in one mediation session. Had I hired any other lawyer I doubt that settling in one mediation session would have been possible. Working with Kayla was a very positive experience for me. Not only is she very easy to work with but she also is a very kind and carrying person. Divorce is such a stressful time and Kayla is very sensitive to your needs. She took the time to help comfort me and help me feel good about the decisions I was making. She is so competent that this comes easily and naturally for her. I honestly couldn't have asked for a better lawyer!

I just went through one of the worst 3 year divorce processess you could imagine. David was my second attorney that I hired about a year ago and I would give anything to make him my first attorney for the following reasons. #1. I got more accomplished with him in the second half of my divorce by a huge margin than I did with my first attorney. #2. He did it all for less than 20% of what I had paid my other attorney because he WILL NOT nickel and dime you in anyway shape and form. Do not be fooled by other attorney's who may charge a smaller retainer because that means nothing when they are calling you every week asking to refill the retainer because they have exchausted it over useless crap. David doesn't do that. He will tell you (at least a ballpark) of what its gonna cost and he will stick to it regardless of what happens. #3 If you are shopping for a divorce lawyer you are about to enter a purgatory you cannot imagine. As far as divorce attorney's go (and I went through one horrible one and shopped around for 4 months to find the right one for my second) he is the closest thing you will find to a rope to get you out of hell. Especially if you are a loving father fighting for your rights, and get custody of your child(ren) from a snake of an ex-wife who wants nothing more than to destroy you. #4. My divorce lasted 28 months. I hired David 20 months into the process and he got more accomplished in the last 8 months than the previous months combined. (and for far less money) #5. Probably the most important part of all of this is that David is a pitbull to fight for your rights. (and be advised that his argumentative and abrasive nature might actually get you in a heated discussion or two between the two of you...but I promise you that is exactly what you want in a divorce attorney. David is that way all the time and he WILL use that same ferocity against opposing council and the judge). Do not be turned off by his bluntness, and realism. It is exactly what you are looking for to get you fair justice in a divorce case. Even on the parts of your case you don't end up winning (because you can't control what a judge will do) he will make the best possible arguments to fight for you and what is yours(and he's so good he WILL get most of it), and he will do it with full knowledge of the law and absolute resolve to get everything he can for you. #6 He is FULLY COMPETENT at everything in divorce law and proceedure and all of that. He has been in practice for years, and knows the system, the rules, the players (other attorneys and the judges) and exactly the right and aggressive way to get it done. If you are a father like me fighting for your rights to get custody of your child, and not have to pay your x-wife every dime you've ever had to get it....STOP SHOPPING FOR ATTORNEYS and hire David. I will say it again...I wish to God I had found him from the beginning. If I could give 10 stars I would. He's very very very good, and he knows exactly what he is doing!!!! 'nuff said.

David Pedrazas represented my boyfriend in a Divorce/Custody. He's now ex wife had taken his 4 children across country and prohibited the kids to have any relationship with my boyfriend for almost 2 years, we had to hire a Private investigator and had no luck until his oldest contacted him behind the mothers back. The ex wife justified her actions in court by making allegations of domestic abuse. It was a difficult case but David was so knowledgeable, honest and he fought for my boyfriend's truth. At the end the judge granted relocation of the kids and now my boyfriend has sole physical custody of his kids. I can't express enough how much he helped our family and how grateful we are for him. I really believe without him we wouldn't have won this case, he basically got everything my boyfriend wanted. David really cares about his clients and he's joy at the end of court demonstrated his commitment to bringing the children home. Thank you again David for your tremendous help we are immensely grateful.

My only regret is that I didn’t meet these men soon enough. I had spent a ton of money on my first lawyer to defend my son on a very complicated case. Without charging me a dime, Greg Smith and Jordan Haycock reviewed our case, did some digging, and met with my son before they even decided to take it over. I AM SO GRATEFUL THEY DID! Both are competent, compassionate and I feel confident that they can handle any case. I don’t feel so alone, trying to navigate a system that I am not that familiar with. Greg knew exactly what to do and jumped right in. I can finally breathe, knowing that my son is in the best hands possible.

I left my son's life in Jordan and Greg's hands and have not been misled or left in the dark about any aspects of my son's case. No stone has been left unturned and I am confident that the outcome will be a positive one. In these difficult times, the pandemic challenged our lines of communication, but Greg stayed true to his promises. He held my son's hand (metaphorically of course) down a very dark valley and for that I am eternally grateful. I emphatically recommend Greg Smith and Associates for all of your legal needs. I will provide an update, and hopefully unchanged review, once Greg Smith is completely done with our case and fulfills all of his promises.

It took a lot of years for me to make the final decision to divorce my husband. I was scared and intimated. I am so happy that I contacted Patricial L. Latulippe to be my lawyer. She was my voice when I could not speak because tears were falling from my eyes. She advocated for me. Her knowledge on the field was very impressived. The way she represented me was outstanding. She knew all the details of my situation. I don't have enough words to express my profound appreciation and respect for her. Me tomo muchos anos tomar la decision de divorciar a mi esposo. Tenia mucho miedo y el proceso me intimidaba mucho. Estoy tan agradecida de haber contratado a Patricial L. Latulippe. Ella fue mi voz cuando no podia contener las lagrimas que salian de mis ojos.. Su conocimiento en el campo legal fue impresionante. Ella fue mi voz y mi representante. Ella sabia en detalle toda mi situacion. No tengo suficientes palabras para agradecerle a ella por todo lo que hizo por mi. Mi recomendacion hacia es excelente. No solo como abogada sino como una amiga a quien puedes confiar.

Liam and his team are amazing people..from his office taking time out to help me through sticky situations so I didn't disobey any orders. Liam was always prepared before the court date and leading uo it. He was very caring about me as a person and my daughter. He gave plenty of time to pay in a timely manner without making you feel like your constantly getting billed. I hope I never have to go through this again but if I do I will most definitely hire him again before anyone else. I have nothing but great things to say abt kiam and his team they are the best

After splitting up with now my ex wife, I began looking for a "good" attorney. Naturally I searched the internet reading reviews etc. I decided by his great reviews that I wanted Liam Duffy to represent me. That was the absolute best decision of my life. I absolutely loved how Liam spoke to me man to man as though we were friends and having a conversation. He made me feel extremely comfortable, and always explained everything so it all made perfect sense. Liam pretty much put my ex's attorney to shame. It was quite awesome really, I would be lying if I said I wasn't grinning from ear to ear as Liam just shredded my ex's attorney. At one point my ex was trying to stop my daughter from coming with me on my appointed night, it was roughly 6 pm I made a phone call to Liam, he had my ex's attorney on the phone and literally within the hour my ex was dropping my daughter off at my home! Now how many attorneys will do that for ya at 6-7 pm in the evening? Liam got me full physical custody of my daughter and I didn't think it would be possible. I could go on and on about the things Liam did for me, I am so pleased. If you are looking for a top notch attorney that will not nickel and dime you, that is very fair on everything and will work with you every step of the way, then Liam Duffy is the attorney you want to represent you. I know every friend & Family member I have, knows about Liam and won't hesitate to retain his services in the future.

Ben is also an attorney who fights to the bitter end for his client. He is an attorney who refuses to back down from a fight and will work to his utmost end to achieve the very best outcome for his client! Ben is the very best and highly recommended!!!!

My divorce case was very involved to say the least. There were many details that need to be gone over. Lisa took the time to discuss every one of them with me and we quickly built a great relationship. She was impeccable with my respecting my wishes while at the same time getting me the correct amount of assests, child support. She was great to communicate with, all emails and when needed phone calls were seamless. She is professional, knowledgeable and really knows her stuff!

First off I had a warrant for my arrest. I contacted Craig Kadish and hired him to represent me. Within 2 days the warrant was squashed and I had a court date issued. I allegedly owed $5,000 for damages to the car that was taken. At the first appearance we made a deal that didn't require me to plead guilty, which I was very happy about. At the second and final appearance the plaintiff didn't even show up! I can't promise that Craig will make your plaintiff disappear but he sure made mine!!!!! Thanks for your help in this matter.

Mr. Kadish recently represented me in a case in Howard County (one of the tougher counties in Maryland). He assured me that he would do his best to get the favorable outcome available for the felony I was charged with. The outcome was more than expected. He lead with confidence and the charge was nolle prosequi. Speaking with him eased my anxieties and I trusted his word. I pray that I never need another lawyer but if I do he would be the first to call.

Craig M. Kadish and his entire team are truly amazing. From my initial consolation with Mr. Kadish and meeting his team, I was confident that I made the right choice to hire him for legal representation. Mr. Kadish and his team were very patient and understanding throughout the 6-month process, explaining all aspects and possible outcomes of my case, without any sugar coating or false promises, all of which I greatly appreciated. Mr. Kadish and his team were very strategic and detail oriented in preparing for each court appearance, all while keeping me informed with the logistics to help ensure I was prepared in advance. Ultimately, Mr. Kadish was amazingly successful in negotiating dismissal of all charges. I definitely recommend Craig M . Kadish to anyone needing a brilliant criminal defense attorney.

Chris Kirker is definitely the man you want sitting next to you rather than across from in the court room. He proved that every single time he stepped foot in that courthouse. As a domestic violence victim, he provided me the feeling of safety, confidence, understanding, and eagerness to do what was right. I have nothing but gratitude and admiration for Chris Kirker and his firm Kirker Davis. It was a special experience seeing the level of knowledge, skill, and care Chris takes in his cases. I recommend him for everything Family Law including but not limited to domestic violence and unique cases. Not to mention the special work he and his wife do in our community, they are such good people with such big hearts.

Kirker Davis is a truly special firm. They have helped get me through the most challenging time in my life. Divorce is difficult enough, but when there is alot of contention, it makes it even worse. I hired Chris Kirker and his team 10 months ago. I was the underdog. I was a mess. From the very beginning, they had a strategy based on my particular case. They executed the strategy with respect, skill, experience, passion and precision. Each and every litigation event was a victory for us and accomplished with the utmost integrity. Chris Kirker, Ashley Morgan, Julie Hill and many others in the firm worked tirelessly for me. They maintained excellent communication and response. No question was too much. They held my hand, reassured me with honesty, listened to me, explained things to me, were compassionate and respectful, AND extremely understanding. They are just really good people. I am truly grateful to have found Chris, Ashley and the KD team to represent me. They gave their tremendous expertise and extraordinary talent to my case, and got me to the other side against seemingly impossible odds.

I found Chris Kirker thru Avvo with awesome reviews. Shortly after I called, they set up the first appointment very quickly which made the firm stand out easily and left me a great first impression when I need the help right away. Chris has broad experience and solid knowledge & expertise which is a great fit for my case given the complexities due to my international marriage and child custody. Going thru a divorce is difficult. To make it as smooth as possible, Chris helped me have a comprehensive understanding of divorce process and set up proper expectations with thorough strategies. He listened to me carefully and fully understood my concerns and priorities. It is a great relief for me that his firm took care of the case with my kids and my best interests in mind all the time. The whole team are very dedicated, proactive, professional, and always there for me when I need recommendations or support. Thanks to them, I am confident to go thru this lengthy divorce. I really appreciate everything they have done to make the divorce as easy as it could be. Highly recommend Chris and his firm to anyone who is looking for a strong, trustworthy and caring team.

He was able to read my now ex, like a book, and stayed on top of everything. Travis was able to get me the best deal in spousal/child support, and even fought for things I didn’t know I needed!

Travis Turner has been our divorce attorney for many years. My husband unfortunately agreed to a poorly drafted divorce decree in 2008, which led to many years of ongoing conflict with his ex-spouse. Travis worked tirelessly on our behalf. He was able to negotiate a modification to the original divorce decree, leading to thousands of dollars saved in unnecessary spousal support. Additionally, over the last 10 years, Travis has assisted in resolving ongoing custodial arguments, as well as, dismissing false claims to child support arrears. In so many ways, Travis Turner has been a voice of reason amidst a tremendous amount of stress. I know it is Travis Turner’s job, but it is our life, and I feel that he went above and beyond. I would recommend, without reservation, Travis Turner and his law firm to anyone going through a complex or contentious divorce. They are the best in Austin!

I hired Mr. Cohen to get the job done and he did just that. The only downfall was the time it took to complete my divorce. To no faults of Scott of course. The courts are so backed up it took a while. The positive part was being able to contact Scott and he almost was always available to speak with me. He kept me in the loop with everything that was going on in my case and that was one of the most important things to me. I do recommend Scott if communication is a big deal because he does make it a point to stay in contact and include his client.

I highly recommend Randi as a divorce attorney, particularly if your situation is complex. I am now 10 years post-divorce and having been exposed to a number of attorneys in Chester County I can say confidently that Randi is the best. She is well connected within the system - know's all the stakeholders personally - and understands the law and the implications on her clients situation, regardless of how complex. As a highly compensated person with multiple children, and one with special needs, I depended on Randi's counsel through complex support and custody matters, including guardianship. Her knowledge and creativity in finding and fighting for the best solutions for her client are second-to-none.

It's been a constant struggle with my son's mother, before acquiring Randi J. Vladimer as my attorney i had no chance to show the courts the stress she was causing for me and my wife. Randi and her team have helped me exercise my rights as a father and legally they have put me in a position to ultimately give my son the best life possible. My case is an international custody case i live in Switzerland and my son's mother lives in Pennsylvania, these type of cases are very complex because we are dealing with a different set of laws and rules for each country. The complexity has not stopped Randi and her team from being great and ensuring I get a fair shot at taking care of my child. My wife and i now view her as a family member because she will be my attorney as a long as she is practicing. I highly recommend Randi !

I applied H1B this year and my company lawyer filed the application. It is selected in the lottery, but I received an RFE in July. The RFE reason is special occupation and beneficial qualification. I worked with my company's lawyer for the first two months, but is not satisfied with their work. My friend recommends Calvin to me and he is great. He quickly started to work on my case and outlined a few key points for the RFE response. We then started to prepare the material and got most material prepared within 10 days. Calvin is very patient and answers all my questions immediately. Although I am located in Seattle area, I am always able to communicate with him by email or phone calls. The RFE is finally approved last week. I would strongly recommend Calvin to anyone who is applying for H1B or responding to H1B RFE. I may also consult or hire him for future immigration questions/cases.

I applied for H1b in 2017 and I didn't use Calvin in the beginning. However I got a RFE in August and my previous lawyer was not responsible and not caring for my case. Googling all the reviews online I chose Calvin, who is very experienced and professional, and it turned out to be the perfectly right choice. He cared about my case and brought out a lot of helpful suggestions. Everybody experienced this know how frustrating, his timely replies, confidence are really comforting. Anyway, I will continue have Calvin handle my other immigration issues and will highly recommend to my friends.

It is true Perry brings in highly experienced people on his team. These things can be so complicated. In court Perry was exceptional.

In despair I called his office at 5:15 on a week night 3 days before my daughters 1st court appearance. I received a call back at 9:00 pm from Mr. Minton. He put me at ease immediately and told me he would help us. By the time we went in to our consultation the 1st court date had been reset and he handled everything from there. This man was my Angel. I had never needed a lawyer for anything much less my teen child. He worked with us when no one else would return calls and the court appointed attorneys couldn’t help us.

Top Questions to Ask a Lawyer

When meeting with a lawyer for the first time, it's important to ask the right questions to understand their expertise and determine if they're the right fit for your legal needs. Here are some top questions to consider:

  1. What experience do you have with cases similar to mine?
    Ensure the lawyer has relevant experience in the specific area of law pertaining to your case.
  2. How do you charge for your services, and what are the estimated costs?
    Understand the fee structure, including hourly rates, flat fees, retainer fees, and any additional expenses.
  3. What potential outcomes can I expect from my case?
    While no lawyer can guarantee results, they can provide an assessment of possible scenarios based on their experience.
  4. What is your approach to handling cases like mine?
    Learn about their strategy, whether they prefer negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
  5. Who will be working on my case?
    Find out if the lawyer will handle your case personally or delegate tasks to other attorneys or paralegals.
  6. How will you communicate with me throughout the process?
    Establish expectations for updates, preferred communication methods, and response times.
  7. What is the likely timeline for resolving my case?
    Get an estimate of how long the process may take from start to finish.
  8. Do you have references from past clients?
    Testimonials or references can provide insight into the lawyer's professionalism and effectiveness.
  9. What are the strengths and weaknesses of my case?
    Understanding potential challenges helps you prepare and sets realistic expectations.
  10. Are there alternative ways to solve my legal problem?
    Discuss options like mediation, arbitration, or settlement to resolve the issue efficiently.

How to Check the Credibility of a Lawyer

Before hiring a lawyer, it's crucial to verify their credibility and ensure they're qualified to handle your case:

  1. Verify Their License:
    Check with your state's bar association to confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
  2. Experience and Specialization:
    Ensure the lawyer specializes in the area of law relevant to your case.
  3. Disciplinary Record:
    Look up any history of disciplinary actions or complaints through the state bar association.
  4. Client Reviews and Testimonials:
    Read reviews on legal directories like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to gauge client satisfaction.
  5. Professional Memberships:
    Membership in professional organizations or specialty bar associations can indicate a commitment to their field.
  6. Awards and Recognitions:
    Honors from reputable organizations reflect expertise and a positive reputation.
  7. Consultation Assessment:
    Use the initial consultation to evaluate their communication skills, responsiveness, and willingness to address your concerns.
  8. Ask for References:
    A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your initial meeting with a lawyer, come prepared with:

  1. Relevant Documents:
    Bring all documents related to your case, such as contracts, correspondence, legal notices, court papers, or evidence.
  2. Written Summary:
    Prepare a concise written summary of your situation, including key dates, events, and involved parties.
  3. List of Questions:
    Write down any questions you have about your case, the legal process, or the lawyer's experience.
  4. Financial Information:
    If applicable, bring financial documents like pay stubs, tax returns, or bank statements.
  5. Contact Information:
    Provide details of any witnesses or other parties relevant to your case.
  6. Personal Identification:
    Bring a valid ID for verification purposes.
  7. Pen and Notebook:
    Take notes during the consultation to remember important points.
  8. Budget Constraints:
    Be ready to discuss your budget and any financial limitations.

How Much Does a Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a lawyer varies widely based on several factors:

  • Fee Structures:
    • Hourly Rate:
      Lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on experience and location.
    • Flat Fee:
      For routine legal services like drafting a will or handling an uncontested divorce, lawyers might offer a flat fee.
    • Retainer Fee:
      An upfront payment against which the lawyer bills hourly fees.
    • Contingency Fee:
      Common in personal injury cases; the lawyer receives a percentage (typically 25% to 40%) of any settlement or award.
    • Monthly Retainer:
      For ongoing services, businesses might pay a monthly fee for a set number of hours or services.
  • Factors Affecting Cost:
    • Complexity of the Case:
      More complex cases require more time and resources, increasing costs.
    • Lawyer's Experience:
      Highly experienced lawyers may charge higher fees.
    • Geographic Location:
      Legal fees can vary significantly by region or city.
    • Additional Expenses:
      Court filing fees, expert witness fees, travel expenses, and administrative costs may be extra.
  • Estimating Total Costs:
    Request a detailed fee agreement outlining all potential costs.
    Discuss any additional expenses that may arise during the case.
  • Negotiating Fees:
    Some lawyers may be willing to negotiate fees or offer payment plans, especially for clients with financial constraints.
  • Pro Bono Services:
    For those who cannot afford legal services, some lawyers or legal aid organizations offer services at reduced rates or for free.
