Mr. Tennant is a great lawyer! He took my case and did his thing to defend me to the fullest. I was worried at first because of the delayed responses, but he came through like he told me he would. If you or anyone you know needs a criminal defense attorney, he is the one you should consult.

Testimonial for Gerard Lynch from David McAllister August 29, 2024 On April 25th 2009 while working as a public school teacher I suffered a massive double stroke. After getting out of the hospital I tried to go back to work and was told I was too sick to remain with the Fort Worth Independent School District and was terminated on April 15th 2010. While talking about my situation with my family doctor she told me I should immediately file for disability. While looking for legal representation from a law firm experienced with Social Security disability I came across the Law Office of Gerard Lynch Social Security Disability Lawyer. When I called the law office I had a very helpful and reassuring three and a half hour conversation with Gerard Lynch. He called Social Security and verified that I met all the criterion for filing for disability. Gerard told me I was within weeks of qualifying but still met the requirements. He told me that it would probably take 18 to 24 months of hearings to receive disability. Gerard told me to be patient but he was certain in the end that I would win. On November 2nd 2012, nineteen months after filing I received a fully favorable decision from Social Security. Everything worked out just a Gerard assured me it would. Thanks, David McAllister

I retained their services, and was in awe the few times I reached out with questions or to provide additional information pertaining to my case. You're made to feel that you are inconveniencing them. Pam, the receptionist, should reevaluate the career she has chosen, and come to the realization that she would be better suited in a position where she has no kind of interaction with any human being. She is the rudest of the rude. For anyone who is thinking of hiring this attorney, please explore all other avenues first.

Joseph Morana is an incredibly thorough attorney whom I had the pleasure of dealing with some years ago. His methodical approach to Estate and Special Need Planning has helped me greatly and allowed me to survive a period of disability in a much better position. I find him personable, helpful, considerate, and empathetic. He really does not miss a thing, and I highly recommend him to anyone. My next step is to finalize a will and I look forward to sitting down with Joe and getting this done, and I know it will be done properly so I do not have to worry.

I worked on 2 different cases with her. One for consultation to launch a business with my partner. And another one was to build a paper contract for my existing business. Both of the case, she took time to break down to help me understand very well, and that was a big eye opening experience for me. As a small business owner, it makes me feel so safe and protected knowing I have someone who is very helpful and devoted like her. She works very quick. I highly recommend to work with her, especially for female entrepreneurs.

I am so grateful to Deeb Elder Law. My mother had always been a very independent (read stubborn) lady until COVID 19. She was so ill and was hospitalized several times, but amazingly recovered. Still it took so much away from her mental and physical capacity. It also required her to move to a long-term care facility. I live in another state (Michigan) and dealing with all my mother’s needs was a logistical and emotional nightmare. From the time I hired Deeb Elder Law, a huge weight started to lift off my shoulders. Dayna Kennedy has been a God-send. She is so calm and professional while still being caring and accessible. Dayna has helped me navigate all the pitfalls of getting my mother moved, dealing with the State of Florida for Medicaid, working with Social Security, and dealing with all the minutiae that taking over a loved-one’s care. I honestly don’t know what I would have done without the caring, helpful professionals at Deeb Elder Law. I’ve been treated like family.

Dealing with an out of state situation, during quarantine, in which we had to search for an elderlaw attorney remotely. During telephone consultation Terry Deeb actually answered questions and provided guidance without commitment to hire. Immediately made us comfortable and confident with the firm. Hired for Medicaid application as well as continued service. Assigned staff is EXCELLENT!! Responsive, compassionate, friendly, professional. Gives the client the feeling that staff is working the case as if for themselves.

Dayna was my main contact and was Fantastic, every question I had was quickly responded to with point on advice and direction.

We were clients of the law offices of Robert J. DeGroot, with Robert DeGroot and Oleg Nekritin as our attorneys. We would like to take this opportunity to tell you what an outstanding job that they did for us in our complex, contentious, and from what many other experts have said, very difficult custody case. From what we have learned, when child custody is being disputed, missteps can be easy to make and are difficult to reverse. For me, a father, to have succeeded, it was essential that smart decisions be made early in the case. The DeGroot team gave us extraordinary counsel from the onset, and gave us a solid understanding of the factors that Family Court Judges consider when determining custody. The smart decisions were made because of these exemplary attorneys. When fighting for our family, we could only select the best, the attorneys at Robert J. DeGroot. They guided us through all flavors of maneuverings from opposing counsel - all the while making sure best interests of my child were served. Not only were these two individual’s complete professionals in their handling of our case, but they both went beyond what we could ever have hoped for. To us they are the meaning behind “For the People.” We consider Bob and Oleg friends of our family for life.

Mr. DeGroot and his firm were thorough, efficient and most importantly effective in presenting my defense. He and his team explored all potential avenues and presented a qualified case to the court. The result was a reduced penalty and dismissal of some charges. Mr. DeGroot was recognized and well respected by the South Orange Court. I would definitely recommend Mr. DeGroot and his Law Firm to my family and friends.

I think this is the first time I have used a law firm to resolve issues with regard to what I felt was a serious and breach of trust and negative performance from a financial manager. From the moment I contacted MeyerWilson, I was always treated with what felt like genuine respect and real interest in my situation. I had some changes of personnel during it all, but the new people were equally respectful and competent which made everything feel seamless. Being my first time to work with a law firm on this type of issue I was constantly surprises at both the competence, skills, respect, thoroughness, and the pleasant ease the experience was. I highly recommend both the firm and their unusually qualified and helpful people working there.

Sarah is not only a highly skilled attorney but also incredibly kind, patient, and calm—qualities that make all the difference during such a difficult time. I always felt supported and knew she was advocating for my best interests every step of the way. Divorce is messy, emotional, and overwhelming, but having an attorney like Sarah in your corner brings a sense of clarity and peace. I can't recommend her enough.

Guenard & Bozarth are the best! I have used them twice for 2 different accidents I was involved in over the past few years. Once back in 2019, and once in 2023. Both instances I was rear ended at no fault of my own. They did such a fantastic job in 2019, getting me the maximum reimbursement i could get with what the opposing parties insurance would pay out, I absolutely without a doubt wanted to use them again for my recent accident in 2023. Needless to say, they did such a great job again in 2023, getting me a major major reimbursement settlement. This was extremely helpful in my recovery. Due to this, I will always use them for any future accident I may be involved in. I highly recommend them to anyone who has the need for a personal injury attorney.

I am very grateful for my attorney Alex and his team. I was arrested abruptly and him and his team worked close with my family to review options for my release.

My case was a looming presence over me but thanks to his knowledge of the court system and him and his teams work, my case was dismissed. My unfamiliarity with the legal system made a very confusing time feel very scary but having Alex and his team gave me courage and peace. Highly recommended for anyone going through a similar situation.

After simultaneously experiencing a protracted period of unemployment and a difficult divorce and losing everything I found myself buried in debt that would take the rest of my life to repay. I was being sued by creditors and unable to get credit anywhere when I reached out to Adrian. He quickly assessed my situation and advised me that a Chapter 7 bankruptcy was the best option for me and immediately assisted me in responding to a lawsuit notification I had received before I had actually hired him. He walked me through the process and kept me updated and always took my calls and responded promptly to my emails throughout the whole process. With his assistance I successfully received a discharge for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy in just under 90 days. It changed my life. Since then in just under 2 years I have restored my credit, purchased and financed a brand new vehicle, and just recently moved into a brand new home I was able to finance through my credit union. Adrian has even helped me deal with a couple of creditors that popped up after the discharge and quickly resolved those situations. This was the best decision I ever made and I have my life back because of Adrian. Thank you.

So I located Roark Law on line and had a meeting with Ann Marie before the meeting was over I already knew that this is the person to set up my trust. She was very professional and caring and knew exactly what I needed. She set up the Trust, a living will, and homestead, plus more. I was very impressed on how it was all put together for me and I would highly recommend Annmarie and Roark law office. Thank you!

One of the most professional, honest, direct, sincere, and skilled individuals I have ever met in life. During/following our first visit, I questioned myself, and wondered why I was there, and thought Annemarie was a bit "gruff." She was at times; however my situation was painful, & she made me a stronger individual as I opted to go forward and have her handle my case. She is extremely smart, very direct, instructs, guides, and tells you just what's going to be, how she's going to get there, and what the expected outcome might be. I could not have resolved my issue, without Annemarie's extensive background and experience. She knows her "stuff!" She will get the job, done, and she will do her very best for you. I strongly urge you to consider her for our individual needs. I will be back for future guidance involving Wills, Trusts, etc, and I have no doubt in my mind, I will "all set" at the end of it all, with Annemarie at the helm.

I 'm from out of state residing temporarily in corporate apartments and was in need of a Power of Attorney. Thank goodness there was a neighborhood lawyer less than a mile away that provided the service that I needed, Mrs./Miss Marcella was that lawyer. She even answered by e-mail on Sunday afternoon concerning my POA.. The next day after work my POA was ready and my wife was very happy when she received the POA the next following day. Also a UPS Store was in the neighborhood. Now how convenient is that. Two birds with one stone. If you live around the Town Square Market at River city in Jacksonville you are very lucky to have this Lawyers service at your door step. By all means please stop in and give her a visit.

There are always two sides to every story, as indicated by the reviews and responses. I can only give you my perception and outcome from my dealings with Mrs. Taylor. First, I called to schedule an appointment with a "lawyer for people with limited income" and the fee was $295 per hour, now let me assure you I have never paid that amount of money in any of my appointments with Mrs. Taylor. Now, I'm sure someone will say, "you get what you pay for", in this case, I would say, "Board certified". In my opinion, Mrs. Taylor simplifies everything by telling you the bottom line. I would recommend Mrs. Taylor and if she isn't able to return your call right away, call again or better yet pay $300 or more per hour for the same law advice. In addition, I have in the past called for legal advice in which I will not mention names and I still have not heard back. In conclusion, Mrs. Taylor is, in my opinion, an honest and caring person with years of attorney experience. She is the first lawyer you should call if she can't help you she will tell you.

I knew I found the right attorney for my contentious divorce and custody case after my initial consultation with Mr. Sutton. I had another attorney at the time and while I was not displeased with their counsel, changing my representation was the best decision for me and my family. I have worked with many attorneys professionally and Jamie is a unique breed. He won’t just take a case because he knows he can make money, he has a conscience and truly believes in justice. He’s very intelligent, attentive, strategic, organized and will do his best to represent and support his clients to the best of his ability. He has always been completely transparent and forthcoming in every matter we’ve dealt with, even when I didn’t like the answer. Many attorneys will tell you what you want to hear just to keep the money coming in, not Jamie. If you need an attorney that will be your biggest advocate, he’s your man. I can’t say enough great things about him, he has truly been a blessing to me and my family throughout what has been the hardest time in our lives. The legal system can be arduous, unfair at times and very confusing, but with a great attorney by your side you can be confident that you will make it out the other side. I will forever be grateful for having found Mr. Sutton and choosing him as my teammate.

In the interest of full disclosure, I want to say upfront that I do have a personal relationship with Mr. Sutton. We have been friends since we were undergraduates together at our alma mater. I hired Mr. Sutton to help me with an ancestry and Irish citizenship matter. I was a little nervous, anticipating many bureaucratic hurdles and endless piles of paperwork. Lucky for me, the paperwork seemed to be mostly taken care of on Mr. Sutton‘s end. I have barely had to do anything other than ask questions and occasionally review and sign documents. Mr. Sutton, on the other hand, has kept me apprised of the ongoing actions within the process, gave me realistic expectations for what the process would be like, and continues to help me understand tangential legal issues. He excels at explaining a legal situation and possible solutions or outcomes (though he is really not a big fan of ‘what if’ questions. I guess most lawyers aren’t). He is also particularly gifted at strategic thinking and maintaining his calm collected rationale. Which is particularly great if you’re like me and have an aggressive form of anxiety that is constantly worrying. He is clearly intelligent, which you notice pretty much right away, and it is a huge relief to have someone this smart in my corner helping me navigate through what can be a truly Byzantine process. Do yourself a favor. Hire him.

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.
