Harvey and Laine have been the perfect duo for me. From our first conversation to the day I closed on my property, they had my best interests at heart. Their experience and dedication ensured that every step of my purchase was thorough and secure. The team skillfully negotiated on my behalf and kept me informed throughout the process. Despite the inevitable hurdles of the buying process, they offered unwavering support. As a first-time home buyer, I experienced firsthand their genuine commitment to their clients' well-being. I am immensely grateful for their invaluable services and support in helping me achieve my dream of homeownership.

Several years ago Harvey and Laine handled an unusual real estate problem for me which I thought was almost hopeless. Not only did they succeed in accomplishing what I wanted, the end result was even more positive than I thought was possible. During the process they followed up with me on a regular basis and made me feel comfortable and confident. That in itself was priceless. Very recently I contacted them again on another business issue. They invited me to come in for consultation and quickly determined my issue also required other and different specialized services and redirected me accordingly. There was no charge for this and Harvey has since followed up with me to make sure everything was ok. They have treated me like a friend - not just a client. It has been a pleasure.

Have never used a lawyer before, but Mr. Lemley was highly recommended to me by a friend. Tom explained the disability process to me in detail, and was very patient with me, as I had a lot of questions and concerns. He told me what I could expect, answered all my questions, kept me up to date on the process, and gave an approximate timeline on a result. Mr. Lemley was always there for me whenever I needed him, and ALWAYS returned my phone calls or e-mails, usually in less than an hour. He is definitely the reason I am receiving my social security disability today. I couldn't imagine going through this process alone. I would highly recommend Tom Lemley to anyone needing a lawyer.

I was in a MVA and i didn't have any car insurance. I called many firms and Jennifer was the only one that would take my case. I also mentioned to Jennifer that a part of my body was injured and I would need great future medical expenses, which I thought was a long shot. I realized my case was very difficult given my circumstances, but Jennifer accepted my case nevertheless and she advised me the best options I had. I had work and i needed time to find a doctor but Jennifer waited patiently. To my surprise Jennifer was excellent at negotiating and she got me a wonderful settlement amount despite my circumstances, and I believe this is the best possible outcome there could be. I could not thank Jennifer enough. To those of you reading my review, my advise is that many 'big firms' spend big bucks on advertisement and in the end customers are the ones paying for it. Big firms also hire paralegals and assistants at low cost to do all the work (including negotiation), and the 'real lawyer' would only talk to you on the phone for 10 minutes on the day you call, so do not expect to receive professional service and care. Jennifer doesn't spend much on ads, she trusted me and showed me that she cared about me and my wellbeing instead of just making a profit. She also addressed my concerns promptly and patiently and it meant a lot to me. Her kindness, not just her skills, makes her an extraordinary lawyer. I hope more people find and hire her as she deserves more business and us customers deserve great services that her firm provides. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and family and would find her again if I need her service!

Lauren Leffler was just the attorney my family needed. My spouse and I approached her with the thought we were making small edits to our wills, but she helped us realize that we needed a full revamp. She was really knowledgeable about our unique needs and we feel secure that our wishes will be upheld thanks to our documents that she created. It would not have happened with the old ones. We’re so relieved to have found her! A few months later, we needed to update my parents’ documents, this was much more of a time crunch than ours. After our good experience, I reached out to her for help. She got their documents done with the speed we needed. She was equally knowledgeable about my parents’ needs, which were very different from my own. We’ve been doing a lot of meetings for my parents these days getting their affairs tidied up, and Lauren has been the only one who has come to the initial consultation meeting having read their existing documents in advance. Their office is easy to get to, but for my housebound parents, she came to their apartment. My sibling plans to use Lauren to update their documents, my other sibling who lives out of state is disappointed they can’t use her (they asked). We’ll definitely call Lauren in the future for any needs that arise.

It was so relieving having Raj handle my divorce. Two days after I told my ex I wanted a divorce she went into a court and filed a protection order, kicked me out of the house, and proceeded to hold my dogs hostage. Raj got the protection order dropped and helped reach a settlement outside of court that I feel was fair. My ex was very aggressive and vindictive, but Raj completely dismantled her in court and helped me have a successful divorce. If you're going to be sitting in front of a judge, you can't afford not to have Raj on your side!

Finally after nearly 10 YEARS of trying to achieve a result in my custody battle, Mr. Bains was able to achieve this for me.

I walked into Wesley’s office looking for an attorney to handle my contentious and complication divorce. Though it was no easy case, Wesley said he was up for the task. For the past year I have worked alongside him and his staff and can honestly say I was wowed by the level of knowledge and service they provide. Wesley is incredibly intelligent and knowledgeable. He answers questions with the ease and confidence of someone who has an in-depth understanding of how the system works. Wesley is, above all else, honest. He does not sugar coat advice, which I greatly appreciated. It’s very easy to get bogged down on the specifics of a divorce; however, Wesley gives his opinion straight and makes sure he doesn’t waste time on things he knows aren’t going to be important in the long run. In addition to knowing his way around the law, he is amazing to watch in court. Precise and cunning, he deftly handles arguments and testimonies and knows exactly how to manuever to get the testimony he needs. Though he is a shark in the courtroom, he and his staff genuinely care about their clients. After emotionally draining events, I would receive a call from his office inquiring as to how I was holding up. They remember my kids names, their ages, what schools they go to. They are genuinely invested in their clients. You are not a case number when you walk through their door. You are a person and they are committed to helping in every way they can. Though Wesley’s knowledge and legal skills are astounding, the care and compassion is what most impressed me. The past year has been riddled with motions, responses and even a few court visits. Wesley and his staff were by my side every step of the way. I cannot say enough good things about Wesley and his team!

We hired Kelsy Miller a year ago to help us through an extremely difficult time. Kelsy and her team comprehensively walked us through every step of the process, answered any questions we had, and always provided an answer in a timely manner. Although our court case took longer than we originally expected, (this was no one person’s fault and actually something she had advised us could happen due to the type of case), Kelsy never wavered with her focus and determination to achieve the best possible outcome for the minor children involved. It is overly apparent that she cares for children and strives to keep their best interest in mind. When it comes to representation in the court system, you do not want to settle for anything less than “absolute best.” Kelsy proved time and time again that we made the right decision in choosing her to help us through this process. She displays exceptional tact, intelligence, and class in and out of the courtroom. Kelsy provided outstanding representation and we will not hesitate to keep her by our side in the future should any other legal needs arise.

Ms. Nicole O’Neil not only met my expectations, but she far surpassed and exceeded them. She was diligent, upfront, professional, honest, hardworking, dedicated, and above all else… she was victorious in successfully winning me everything I was asking for.

I was provided with very useful information that helped in my situation greatly. I feel way more confident in my standing now and that boost to my morale alone has pivotal even in a short period of time. My deepest gratitude because this advice was done as volunteered time by Mr. Tanner.

Called Jason a couple days before my court date. After a couple of other attorneys wouldn’t return my calls. He called me in for a consultation and I gladly hired him. What I liked about him is he didn’t make any empty promises that some of these guys will make. He did promise to work any angle he could use to get my charges lowered or dropped. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome facing a minimum 120 days in jail and a 6 year license suspension. This would have ruined me financially. I ended up with a plea down to 48 hours and charged with a first offense charge. Honestly think I might’ve got out of it all together if I asked him to go further with it but it wasn’t a risk I was willing to take with that great of an offer. I also want to say that under the circumstances I thought they were going to fry me if they could. He was worth double the money I paid him. In fact I have paid twice as much with not near the results. I hope I never need an attorneys services again but if I do there’s no question who that will be. Hi staff was great as well.

Jason is a great attorney who fights for you and doesn’t just take your money. Jason worked very hard on a case for me and it got transferred to another state. He didn’t just turn his back on me, he helped me get some things cleared up here in Tn so I can move forward in WVa. I feel Jason is honest and a compassionate man who doesn’t do his job for just the money. Jason truly fights to help his clients, and you don’t have to mortgage your home to hire him. I would choose Jason again and trust he’d do the best job.

I would recommend Sarah to any man going thru a divorce.

My husband and I were in the middle of a difficult child custody case. We had two previous attorneys yet our proceedings were not moving forward. We felt we were not being heard and wasn’t sure what direction to take. We hired Sam and immediately things began to change. Sam and his team worked vigorously for us and in the end we had a order in our favor and case closed. Sam will listen to your concerns and tell you your options. He is compassionate about his work and getting the best outcome for the children. His staff is top notch and your questions will not go unanswered. If we find ourselves in need of counsel in the future , without question Sam will be our phone call!

The contrast between the lawyer who represented my ex-wife and Sam, who represented me, was dramatic: her lawyer's idea of advocacy was to be confrontational (luring my ex to also become confrontational). She went after everything, no matter how small. She made empty threats. She did not question her clients claims and did not damp her unreasonable expectations. Why should she, she got paid either way. Sam, on the other hand, was firm but willing to negotiate and find solutions. He has a lot of experience, treated me and the opposing team with courtesy and respect, he took into consideration how a judge might rule, he did his research, he sought solutions, and developed a big picture plan which he executed, in consultation with me, in record time. In the end my ex has a huge legal bill, and did not get more than what she deserved, and if she did, it was in consideration for our son. The conclusions to be drawn are obvious. However, if you still have doubts concerning what type of lawyer you want, I would strongly, and without reservations, recommend you discuss your case with Sam before you decide.

Sam and his amazing staff assisted my husband and I in a custody modification of children from my previous marriage. Ultimately the modification ended in my husband being able to legally adopt my kids. Sam and the staff were always available to answer any questions that we had. They also always responded to emails. I started the modification journey with a different attorney that made us feel like we weren't getting heard and we constantly felt ignored. But switching to English Law Firm was the best decision we ever made. I highly recommend them to anyone that is needing assistance with divorce or child custody.

You won’t find a better lawyer! Sam really goes above and beyond to build a relationship with you and build your confidence which inevitably suffers when dealing with difficult legal matters. I couldn’t have gotten a better outcome from the family legal matter he helped me with, and can’t imagine anyone else could have gotten the job done so successfully!

We Hired T Scott Jones to help with an incident that happened to my daughter that the results could have been very life changing and facing prison time. The incident seemed to be one sided due to my daughter being out of county. Scott gave hope to our family when our options appeared limited. He was very thorough and competent professional who always had my daughters best interest in mind. He would not hesitate to tell her what was best for her. He was very personable and caring, We were always informed and always felt she was in good hands. He never missed a scheduled meeting and he always took our calls even when we needed to hear everything is going to be OK. We owe a debt of gratitude to him for his services. He is a solid lawyer who practices nothing but the best, A person who invents themselves needs someone to believe in them, Not only the need to be believed in , but the need to believe in another. Thank you for believing in her!!! Forever grateful Angie D.

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.
