I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to Allyson Quay for her exceptional support during my challenging situation. When I first reached out, I was feeling vulnerable and overwhelmed due to my immigration status and the complexities of my case. After speaking with several lawyers, I was uncertain about what to do next, and the emotional toll was significant. However, from the moment I contacted Allyson , I felt a sense of reassurance. Allyson took the time to listen to my concerns and explained the difficulties I was facing with clarity and compassion. I appreciated her suggestion to consult with my immigration lawyer, which showed her commitment to ensuring I had the best possible representation. After our conversation, I knew I wanted Allyson to be my lawyer. She confidently assured me that we would work through my situation together, and I felt a renewed sense of hope. I am thrilled to say that with her expertise, she successfully removed the charges against me, something I had been told by others was unlikely. Allyson's dedication, professionalism, and understanding truly set her apart. If anyone in the Latino community or anyone else is in need of legal assistance, I wholeheartedly recommend Allyson and her team. She is, without a doubt, the best lawyer I could have hired for my case. Thank you, Allyson, for being there for me when I needed it most.

We needed a lawyer that was licensed in MA and RI and I CAN NOT stress enough how awesome Ellison Law was. They were on point from the jump. Even contacted me on a weekend! Crazy instrumental in helping us navigate "real reality" vs "legal reality". Kept us in the loop at all times. Allyson is an incredible resource - she knows sooo many people and she can leverage that to help you get what the system would otherwise deny. During the course of our case we ran into so many blocks getting content and she Just .. Kept .. Pushing. Tenacious is an understatement. To be clear I wish we hadn't been in this situation but Ellison helped make things right.

When you choose an attorney, you’re gambling your best possible future on a total stranger and that’s a scary thing. The moment you talk with Cesar Neira, you’re going to feel comfort and know you chose the right person. He’s polite and compassionate where you’ll feel like you have a guardian who sees you as a real person with a real life to defend, and not just a case number. I thank God that my sister fund NeJame law firm and Mr. Neira took my case, he was able to go to another county and see me, after another lawyer took my money and didn’t go to the first court day More importantly, he’s extremely knowledgeable and experienced, and he’s capable of creating incredibly positive outcomes from situations that seem like they’re hopeless. I assure you you’ll never trust any attorney more than Mr. Neira after you take the initial leap of faith in choosing him.” We me and my family are so thankful with him!

Tania is the best Immigration lawyer, she got me out of deportation processing and got out from Adelanto detention center, got my green card back also in a matter of a couple years she also helped me with my paper work to becoming a US citizen, today 10/21/24 had my interview with the ins and passed my citizenship, my criminal record is really bad talking DUI ,and fire arms as a juvenile, which I did all my time, but trust me she's assume she goes out of her way to communicate with me, she's there by phone email, if she's in court, she reaches out to you after or on a break, she's always working for you, I really recommend her to any one with immigration problems she's the best. Thank you Tania I will be letting people know about and family members ❤️

Attorney Lias is a fierce and talented criminal defense attorney. She is a true advocate for justice. When I was hit with a meritless and retaliatory temporary restraining, Antionette carefully listened to my concerns and answered all my questions. She gave me a good idea on what to expect during the hearing and I’m happy to say that attorney Lias got the temporary restraining order Dismissed with Prejudice.

I found Tania through a Google search. I was feeling overwhelmed and confused due to an issue with USCIS. While the problem was simple, it required me to consult an attorney. Unsure of how to even explain the situation properly, Tania kindly offered me a callback. In just one call, she pointed me in the right direction. Her guidance was so clear that I spoke with her on a Monday, submitted the document she recommended (following her advice) on Wednesday, and by Friday of the same week, the case status was approved. Tania was very kind and personable. She avoided using complex legal jargon, which can often be confusing. What stood out most was that she wasn’t trying to charge an exorbitant fee just to answer a simple question. In the end, I received kind and down-to-earth support.

"I can't speak highly enough of Attorney Allan Friedman. I randomly found his page doing a Google search. The entire experience, from the first time I called him asking for help until the very end, was EXCEPTIONAL. During our first encounter, he couldn’t take my child juvenile case, but he took the time to pass on my information to one of his colleagues who could help. Being clueless, in a panic and a court appearance in a couple of days and I went with another firm. THAT WAS A BIG MISTAKE! I ended the contract with Ruane Law Firm (whom I paid) when my child’s case shifted to adult court; I lost complete faith. My gut and heart led me back to Attorney Friedman, who was my first choice. He immediately showed complete COMPASSION, PROFESSIONLISM, and most importantly made me feel at EASE. His approach and friendly demeanor far exceeded my expectations. His experience is INVALUABLE. I’m pleased to report our case is behind us and we received the desired outcome I prayed for. I WOULD HIRE HIM AGAIN IN A HEARTBEAT!!!!!

When searching for lawyers for my fathers DUI case, I came across several lawyers but from the few that I spoke with over the phone or in person, no one came close to David. From start to finish he was so kind, understanding and responsive! When meeting with him I truly appreciated his honesty and expertise regarding options and knew that we would be in good hands moving forward with him. He is very knowledgeable about the Anoka court system and was very patient and in explaining the process with my father and I. In the end the case was able to be dismissed! We are very happy with the outcome and working with David. We always got latest updates throughout the process and communication was top notch! I can’t recommend him and his team enough!!

From the onset of my case to its dismissal, Zach demonstrated an extraordinary level of professionalism, expertise, and dedication. From our first meeting, Zach was incredibly approachable and empathetic, making a stressful situation much more manageable. His ability to clearly explain legal procedures and strategies provided a sense of clarity and calm. Throughout the case, Zach's guidance was invaluable. He was always available to answer questions, offer advice, and provide support, which was greatly appreciated. His attention to detail and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome set Zach apart. His efforts led to the dismissal of my case, an outcome that I am immensely grateful for. It was evident that Zach deeply understands the law and genuinely cares about his client's well-being. His support extended beyond just legal advice. Zach was a pillar of strength in a challenging time, offering reassurance and a positive outlook. His confidence and expertise were a constant source of comfort. Zach is a remarkable attorney who goes above and beyond for his clients. His combination of legal understanding, compassion, and dedication is rare and truly commendable.

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:
