I honestly don't know how to thank Ed and his firm for all of their help and support. Nothing I write here will do justice to the quality and sincerity of Ed’s and his team’s work. First of all, Ed is extremely knowledgeable, highly strategic, and has all of the top qualities that you look for in an effective lawyer. He smoothly and quickly settled my case with my former employer via a law that no other lawyer that I consulted with even thought of. Also, he helped me avoid the potentially embarrassing experience of litigation, yet still secured a very substantial settlement for me. The outcome he produced was above and beyond my highest expectations. However, monetary recovery was not the most valuable outcome that I received from working with Ed. The greatest benefit that I gained from this experience was the strong sense of self-empowerment that Ed instilled in me, and, to me, as a woman, this is priceless. Ed and his firm gave me the support, motivation and courage to stand up for myself and to do what was right for me. What I admire most about Ed is his empathy and his unique ability to fully and completely comprehend the positioning and experiences of women in the workplace. When I first walked into Ed's office, I felt an instant rapport with him. Ed patiently listened to me and was completely present and focused while I told him my story. He listened without judgment and offered sincere counsel. After our first meeting, I instinctively knew Ed had my best interest at heart, and I could fully trust him. I was in good hands. Ed helped me to obtain justice not only monetarily, and not only morally. He helped me to obtain justice in its complete sense, and for me, as a woman, that’s extremely important. I have unwavering faith in Ed and his firm's commitment to helping women in the workforce. If you feel that you have been wronged by your former employer, I highly recommend that you hire Ed and his firm, especially if you're a woman. He will not only get you a settlement that is most likely beyond what you expect, but he will do so ethically, morally, efficiently, and you may even gain a sense of self-empowerment that you never knew was possible.

I was referred to Ed by my employment lawyer when it was clear that the only way there was going to be a resolution to my dispute with my employer was if I hired a litigator. We spoke on the phone and I immediately liked Ed. He is articulate, highly experienced, strategic and compassionate. Ed is also fair. He has his own practice, which is something I prefer in a lawyer. I found him to be reasonably priced (or, as reasonably priced as a lawyer can be!). One of the things I valued in Ed is his understanding of both the employee and the company's side of any situation, as he's spent considerable time as a defense lawyer. I liked that he could get into the other side's brain. I found Ed to be super responsive and very professional. He did a great job of keeping me abreast of his communication with my former employer's lawyer and, though I know he has so many other high-priority cases, I felt that I was given just as much attention and care. Our case moved to mediation and I was even more impressed with Ed, being able to see him in action. His ability to build rapport is admirable and, I believe, important. He clearly has an excellent reputation in the legal world and amongst some of the most renowned mediators. During mediation, he guided me, gave me perspective, but didn't force me to make any decisions I wasn't comfortable with and I am deeply appreciative of this skill of his. Throughout everything, I always felt that Ed was putting my best interests ahead of his own. We ended up settling and I am pleased with the outcome, an outcome that I know is in great deal because of the excellent work Ed did on my behalf.

I was referred to Ed by a colleague who had conferred with him. I can write all day long and it won't be enough to express my gratitude towards Ed for his advice and help. I am especially thankful he explained the entire process to me, as often as I needed, and let me know exactly what I might be in for should my case go to trial. He was equal parts knowledgeable and empathetic as well as being an all around great guy. I heartily and enthusiastically recommend Ed Cerasia.

Laura Mattiacci, Console Mattiacci Law, participated in my in my lawsuit during the trial preparation phase of my case in age discrimination and retaliation case against my former employer. Along with the my attorney, Rahul Munshi, she served as trial attorney in federal court in a jury trial, which ended with a verdict in my favor. Honestly, I was deceived by her sweet and gentle manner, with which I was familiar that was outside of the court room. The court room persona, which she embodied at the trial took me by surprise and I was counting my lucky stars for not having to be cross-examined by a skillful, knowledgeable and assertive litigator. Rahul Munshi was my attorney in the preliminary phase, the discovery period and the court trial, a four plus years process which ended in my favor. I highly recommend Laura, Rahul and Stephen, as one of the plaintiffs represented by Console Mattiacci Law because I got the support of the firm on "Team Ruth."

I hired Console Law to represent me in a C.E.P.A. claim. Laura Mattiacci was a part of the team that represented me in court and she did a fantastic job. The trial took place over five days and Ms. Mattiacci was the lead litigator. During this process and the trial period she remained professional, engaged and very supportive of me as her client. My case is in appeal and Console Law is representing that matter as well. I would highly recommend Mrs. Mattiacci and the Console Law team.

After I was wrongfully accused in a noise violation case Laura not only defended me she researched the illegality of the "animal house" law perpetuated by SIC police and other resort areas throughout the country! She was prepared to present her case (a guaranteed W) in NJ Supreme Court. Her legal dynamic was so feared the prosecuting attorney withdrew his charge prior to higher court and I was exonerated.

Frank Lopez is an excellent attorney. Now, there may be a lot of excellent attorneys in the Denver metro area, but Frank stands out, at least to me, because he is an excellent human as well. Frank helped advise me through some challenging events and went so far above and beyond just serving as my lawyer. He genuinely cared about how I was doing, despite the fact we had never met in person (only spoke on the phone). Frank has become a very trusted advisor and someone I deeply respect. I could not recommend him more highly.

My wife and I went to Clower Law last week to complete our will. We wanted to make sure our kids were taken care of if anything should happen to us. The topic of death is awkward but Ashley from Clower Law made us feel very comfortable, we both felt at ease as soon as we sat down in her office. The feeling of comfort was important to us as we were able to discuss death candidly. We have a rather large family and I had a lot of questions so before our meeting I tried to do some research online and came up empty, I received muddled search results from forums of people who didn't know California laws. I am happy to say that within minutes all of my questions were answered. It seems that sometimes it's best to just hand over everything to a legal expert to get some direction on what to do next. It's a great feeling knowing that our family estate is in good hands. Thanks again for all your help.

When I needed a lawyer against a big corporation, I looked everywhere and It was not easy at first unless I come up with big $$. I almost gave up until someone referred me to the Spencer Firm. Money was not an issue. They welcome me and listen to me. " We will help you" they said. I felt like 100 pounds came off my head. Deyka Spencer explained to me on the eye of the law what was possible and not possible, what I can expect going to court and/dealing with the company. She did not harrassed me for fees or money. They made it so easy I knew there that God Almighty sent her to me. She pulled the victory wit huh out even facing the judge. She knows the Law and my company knew that I had one of the best lawyer. She won the case without headache for me. My wife and I are very happy of the outcome. My victory was not only financial but I was more interested on my integrity and my dignity. That all I wanted redemption. I got it and I feel free. Everyone in Spencer firm is wonderful to talk and work with. Deyka: She is Special. I van not thank her and her firm enough. I leave it to the Creator who sent her to me. I will recommend the Spencer firm over any other firm. THANK YOU DEYKA SPENCER. Cheik.

I hired Wilmer and his team to handle my employment case and we were able to push for a settlement 2 years after the first complaint filed. I was rejected by many many other attorneys at first since my profession is hard to understand by straight forward illustrations. Many other attorneys told me my case will be hard to be comprehended by jury if we go to trial. I went with another 5 star attorney at first and he dropped me after 1 st complaint filed. Wilmer was the 1st attorney who told me he would take my case. After the other attorney dropped me, I went back and asked Wilmer if he would accept me, Wilmer accepted me and he cured the mess ever since. Not only he was experienced and empathetic, he was very smart and learned about my case in a professional way. Even though my final settlement was slightly short compared to my target, I still strongly recommend Wilmer. He was truly kind and truly a fighter against hidden discrimination. I was impressed by his first depo against the defendant, which made the defendant a stupid liar, in a very professional way. I truly appreciate his help. I strongly recommend him as a past client by all my heart

Before Stan, I had searched or talked to other lawyers and these lawyers kinda talked down to me and made me feel like my case was pointless without hearing my statement. They just assumed. When I came across Stan, he responded immediately and sat and listened to my every word. Made me feel like I was truly valued and that my case wasent something "pointless". He put real effort in my case and kept me updated when need be. And when I needed an answer, he gave it to me straight forward but not harsh where he's talking down to you. Long story short, I won my case because of my lawyer.

Robert Wasserman is a wonderful lawyer, from the first phone call to the last he has never stopped caring and fighting for what was fair for me and my case. At times I would get frustrated (though not at Robert, also being pregnant didn’t help) because there was so much information that needed to be shared and discussed but unfortunately that’s just the process. Robert made that process that much more easier, he was compassionate and caring and never pushy or rude. The results that I achieved with Robert Wasserman as my attorney were far better than I initially had hoped for. I am a very happy customer and I highly recommend Mr. Wasserman to anyone looking for a lawyer. You will not be dissappointed.

Robby Robinson is a very capable, stand-up attorney. He represented me in a long, contentious employee arbitration suit, in which we prevailed. He was thorough, diligent in his research, patient, calm in his demeanor but steadfast in his determination to win the case. His very fair, straightforward and low-key style earned him credibility with the arbitration judge as well as even his adversaries. These cases can be emotional for the claimant, and Robby maintained a positive, confident, professional and calming approach throughout the process. He took the time to make sure that I understood what to expect up front, and explained all the proceedings as we went along. He maintains a lean, but capable team and held up extremely well even when faced with a much larger firm on the other side who always showed up with a few more lawyers than we did. I would not hesitate to recommend Robby Robinson to others seeking representation in employee litigation.

I have had the pleasure of working with a lot of this firm's staff. During a very stressful, frightening process looking for help for my mom during an unfavorable work experience, no other lawyers were willing to help. My first contact was with Amy Oakden...IMMEDIATELY I knew I had hit the lottery. SHE CARED. She spoke to the partners and THEY cared. During one very scary incident, Mr. Barry Walker himself was on the phone with me and ensuring me that it would all be okay and that in the event I needed someone after hours, he gave me his personal cell number. Not only do they care...they ALL know their stuff!! Larissa was another awesome lawyer that came to our aid. I am also so impressed by the rest of their staff. Vicki Warren and Misti Janes. I have had frequent contact with them...and the caring and amazing customer service flows from Mr. Walker all the way through the office. Once this firm took over my mom's case...I have been able to let it go and let them handle it. NO WORRIES. Great lawyers, and just really good PEOPLE.

I was so beaten down and depressed from the complex wrongful termination from my work, that it was difficult for me to explain to James what happened to me. But I knew strongly in my heart that it was wrong the way that I was treated by my place of work. So with James kindness and patience, experience, and being knowledgeable and an expert in his field, I felt like I could relax, and that I was safe and protected because I was in good hands, and I could trust him explicitly. My case was very complex and James and his Team were experts with gathering and organizing my information. James explained things clearly to me and I was well prepared for my depositions. He was always available. In his depositions of the defendants, he was able to uncover the discriminating information that helped us favorably. It was awesome and reassuring to see how well respected James is in his field. Seeing how well respected he is helped me realize I had definitely made the right choice. But it is just one of the ways. James is so smart and perceptive and is really the Best at what he does!! I will forever be grateful to James for his caring and expert work.

I couldn't have been happier with anybody else. I am over joyed with his commitment and hard work. I am also very pleased with the outcome. I would recommend him to anyone.

After calling several attorneys regarding my situation with my employer, I received a call back from Matthew Coffman advising that I had a case of discrimination and unlawful termination. Matthew's representation was outstanding. He took his time to answer all of my questions and answered my e-mails in a timely manner. I would recommend him due to his willingness to to help and make sure that his client comes first.

Robert was very thorough and explained every step of the way in detail on what was happening throughout the case. He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in how he was going to fight for my case. The end result was very satisfying and was able to walk away from my case with a heavier wallet. I’ve never been more satisfied with a settlement than with Robert. Highly recommend.

I have never had to use an attorney prior. I am in southern Oregon and was unable to find an attorney that would take my case so I started venturing out of town and up north. Stevens and Legal had no hesitation in taking on my case. Yes it was a long process but it eventually paid off and if I didn't reach out, I would be in the same boat just without receiving any back wages. I dealt with Robert Wilson. He was informative and prompt to respond and kept me updated through the entire process. If I ever find myself in a similar situation, I won't even speak to any adjuster without first retaining these individuals. Thanks again Robert.

Steve has been my attorney for my child custody case for the past almost two years. He is understanding, compassionate, and at the end of the day only has my child's best interest at heart. It was been a very complex case and he has helped me through it. We are not out of the woods yet but I know whatever we might have to deal with in the future Steve will have my back.

Attorney Franko was very helpful, knowledgeable, and caring during the events of my case. I had previously hired an experienced attorney from a well-known area firm, and had I continued to retain his services over Attorney Franko's, not only would I have lost financial compensation, I would have incurred increased bodily damage from a misdiagnosed spinal injury that he discouraged a second opinion on. Attorney Franko doesn't over promise compensation, but he also works his hardest to reach the best possible outcome for his clients. I was, and continue to be, treated with respect and kindness. I have recommended him to friends and colleagues, and would continue to do so.

Mr. Poindexter, and the rest of the Delegal & Poindexter firm, were outstanding. They were open and honest about the potential outcome of my case; there were no surprises. I would like to point out that I was contacted by Mr. Poindexter late on a Saturday night regarding specifics about my case. I truly appreciated the fact that he was working on my case during those late hours, which is a testament to their dedication toward their client(s). Mr. Poindexter's negotiation skills are extraordinary; you won't be disappointed. I am truly grateful for the Delegal & Poindexter firm taking on my case and fighting for a positive outcome.

I had reviewed a few employment and labor attorneys/firms online and consulted a couple before being referred to his firm. His firm was recommended by another attorney and having that endorsement made it an easy choice for me. When I am looking for a specialist in a field, I expect that professional to know his/her trade like the back of their hand. James is very knowledgeable and diligent, and meticulous in his approach. He was very quick to grasp the nitty-gritty of my situation. I would have to say that my case was probably a little unusual and it turned out to be more complicated than I had initially foreseen but that did not faze James. He outlined the probable outcomes and developed a course of action. He gave good advice and patiently answered my numerous questions. His negotiation skills are par excellence and I believe that clinched the matter in my favor in the end. I would strongly recommend Attorney James Poindexter to anyone looking for legal counsel or representation in the area of employment related issues. He will meet or exceed your expectations.

Attorney Seth is for sure a great attorney to have watch your six . If you weren’t in the military that mean to watch your back . He handle my case like a great attorney should and what you expect from a great attorney and even after my case is settled he still handles the little problems that will pop up from your insurance company not paying your medical bills that they should Pay One phone call from him and it’s taken care of and I would recommend Him hands-down 100% And I have recommend at least four people to him . Think of him as going into a hand to hand combat but he has a sledgehammer with him . That’s why when the insurance company sees his name next to your name On a leather head they know they’re in for a fight they won’t be able to get away with anything Or push you over

Robyn is a great lawyer and super personal. I had to acquire her service to help fight for custody of my only son. For a long 18 months, she communicated and explained every question or concern I had throughout the process. she was very professional and transparent throughout every step by sharing email exchanges of the negotiation for custody of my two-year-old son. In the end, she did the impossible by settling my case with 50/50 physical custody because we live in the south and family court is one-sided. Listen, lawyers are expensive, but it was worth it in the long run because now I no longer have to pay child support, and claim child tax credit every other year. Now, this doesn’t mean it will work for everyone, but she will advise you on the do’s and don’t, to help build your case. There's hope for good fathers that want to be a part of their kid's life and Robyn will be a solid asset to your fight.

I came to Hoffer & Webb to handle my divorce. I was scared out of my mind because my life was changing before my eyes but Robyn Webb took over the situation for me and kept me informed every step of the way. And when I got in a car wreck, Hoffer & Webb was there for me, too! Michael Hoffer handled everything, and pushed the insurance company to offer more than I thought they would! I appreciate everything these wonderful ppl have done for me, I’d be in a bad place without them. Give them a shot at taking care of your legal issues. You won’t be disappointed!

I can't say enough about my positive experience with Robyn and her staff. My case was very complicated with many financial details. I was told many times by other attorneys that my case would not end in my favor. I felt that my situation was hopeless. Only until I met Robyn did I feel that I was getting heard. She listened carefully with compassion and wanted to understand the details of my case. She actually cares. I have the upmost respect and gratitude for her. I absolutely listened to any advice she gave me and got her the information she needed to help me. I understood very early in meeting her that she means business and that she would always act in my best interest. Truly amazing. I can't thank her enough for helping me get through such a difficult time in my life. By far, THE best attorney.

Calling Jonathan Puth was the best move I could have made. Concerned that my boss might want to let me go, Jonathan prepared me for my meeting with the Managing Partner of my firm. He told me what to say, and more importantly, what not to say. I was able to go into, what was supposed to be, my performance review, feeling calm and ready to deal with whatever transpired. Jonathan continued to be wise, caring, patient, and willing to discuss any concerns or issues that I was trying to navigate. His counsel was incredibly effective. I was able to maintain my confidence and self-worth as I sat across the table from my employer who would have benefitted from me feeling vulnerable and unprepared. As Jonathan provided guidance that supported me through preparing a response to my employer and negotiating a severance package, I’m certain that his assistance put me in a position of being able to secure a generous severance package and I did not even need to argue with them. Without working with Jonathan I don’t think my employer would have come to the conclusion that they did which was that it would be better for them to be generous, than having to enter into a prolonged and difficult negotiation where they risked paying even more. If you are in need of a great lawyer, Jonathan will do a fantastic job for you.

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:

    Understand the fee structure, including hourly rates, flat fees, retainer fees, and any additional expenses.

  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.

    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.
