David's firm represented my company and from the first day of working with David, I was impressed with his intelligence, integrity and dedication to the case. He is a tireless worker with a charming personality that will do whatever it takes to help his clients. I look forward to possibly working with David in the future and would not hesitate to recommend him to others.

Jan Breslauer is an amazing advocate. She worked in the entertainment industry for so long and in so many different ways (writer, producer, producing director... find the list yourself, I don't remember it all) that she's been through everything already. Jan understands what it feels like to be an individual creative-type facing an overwhelming onslaught of professional legality. She is always patient and sympathetic with me, but fiercely -- and effectively -- protective on my behalf. If you need help, there's no one better. Jan Breslauer is a pit bull in heels.

I cannot express my gratitude enough to Victor and his team. They truly went above and beyond to help me with a case that was far from easy to prove. Their dedication, expertise, and unwavering commitment to my case were remarkable. From the initial consultation, Victor and his team took the time to thoroughly understand the complexities of my situation. They provided me with clear guidance on the potential outcomes and a realistic assessment of my situation, which helped me make informed decisions throughout the process. What impressed me the most was their tireless advocacy on my behalf. Victor and his team left no stone unturned, conducted meticulous research, and navigated through the legal intricacies with finesse. They handled everything with determination and professionalism, even when all seem hopeless. I'm thrilled to say that their hard work paid off, and I received compensation that I never thought possible. This outcome was a testament to Victor and his team's expertise and their ability to handle challenging cases. Moreover, the communication throughout the entire process was exceptional. They kept me informed at every step, promptly answered my questions, and eased my anxieties. I felt supported and empowered throughout the journey. If you're in need of legal representation and are facing a complex or challenging situation, I wholeheartedly recommend Victor. They are a dedicated team of legal experts who will fight with passion, skill, and unwavering commitment.

It isn't often I get into a situation that I can't find a way out of and have to resort to legal means. I didn't want to litigate but try to find someone who could advise me on my other potential options. Ms. Laskaris came to me through a personal referral by a friend whom I trust. He told me that she could help me and if not, would be honest and tell me so before she took any money. I called her and, though hesitant at first, after talking for just a little while that she "got" me and my situation and would help. I am an entertainer and my reputation means everything. I don't want to be labeled a trouble-maker or difficult person to deal with, so standing up for myself when my rights had been trampled on was difficult. Ms. Laskaris became more than attorney to me, she was and is a trusted adviser. She is honest, reasonable in pricing, and goes so far beyond what you would expect that five stars isn't really enough. If you have any doubt about hiring or dealing with an attorney, stop doubting. Hire Diana Laskaris. You will be glad you did.

Mr. Meth and his team have represented me in criminal defense on multiple occasions, which admittedly does not say a lot for my character... I'm a young, stubborn and foolish man; blinded by my own arrogance and alcoholism and abhorrent decision making, I found myself making the same mistakes over and over again. Anyone who has been involved in the criminal justice system, whether you're the defense attorney, the DA, a judge or the defendant, you know that presiding judges do NOT look favorably upon repeat offenders. I first hired Meth law in 2014. From start to finish Mr. Meth, who always conducted himself professionally and respectfully to me, was able to navigate my case to a favorable disposition. In hindsight, what I respect the most about Mr. Meth's representation was that he did not just focus on the best outcome for me, right from the start he strongly encouraged and directed me to treatment for alcoholism during the case and even for after the case. Had i listened there is a good chance that the story would end right there, but alas, as i aforementioned I was stubborn and stupid. The following year I hired Meth Law again for a related, but not the exact same charge. Again Mr. Meth was able to get me a very favorable disposition. Seeing the behavioral pattern, he reminded and encouraged me to seek help and follow through instead of just half-assed participation and going through the motions. Again I didn't listen. Finally, in a particularly egregious and flagrant repeat of the original offense, I once again found myself in serious trouble (like the arraignment judge sets 5 figure bail on you kind if trouble) and in need of Meth Law's service. After barely affording the bail to get myself out of jail I found myself significantly short on the retainer fee to hire Meth Law. Understand the financial ruin I was in from posting bail and seeing my desperation and ability to make payments, Mr. Meth was very, very, reasonable and fair to let me pay half down and payments on the remaining balance while representing me from square 1. Instead of being entirely grateful, admittedly, at times i was a NIGHTMARE client to deal with. Between the fear over my future and my alcoholism, I was at times argumentative, combative and belligerent with the very people who were there to help and represent me. From reading applicable law sections, several applicable cases and case citations I led myself to believe that I knew more than I did and constantly argued with my representation, which as practicing attorneys, extremely intelligent men and women and law school graduates, had to have been woefully annoying. I acted childish and selfish, like I was the only client they had to worry about when it obviously was not the case. In spite of all of that... in spite of lashing out while having nobody to blame but myself... I was given a stern reminder of the way things were and why, all the while being treated respectfully without condescension and the utmost professionalism. I finally listened to Mr. Meth's advice and he guided me to excellent professional help for my alcoholism. I am going on 2 years sober to this day, I wish I listened sooner. I wound up having to do some time, and I deserved it. If it wasn't for Meth Law I would've had to do way more and would've come out of the correctional system irreparably broken and directionless like so many others. In spite of making many awful and stupid mistakes, I was given one last chance to get things right and make something of myself before I became a washed up, old loser... and I have Meth Law to thank for that. The retainer fees were always fair, Mr. Meth and his staff: Evan, Bianca, Tara, Christina were all fantastic extremely professional and courteous. They always responded to my inquiries immediately or ASAP and despite my immaturities, I was always treated with respect. I cant say enough good about this firm, I recommend them 100% Thank you Meth Law for your help and representation!

Stuck in a hotel with my two children after being ordered by judge to not leave the state to go back to our home in FL Michael Picked up my call at 7 am on Saturday Morning. From that moment on I shut up and listened (for the most part) and he has been by my side over the past year and half fighting for my rights and my children's best interest. Michael in a matter of days had his team on my case and corrected the wrong that was done by the Judge and my previous attorney and sent us home where we belonged. At my first court appearance with Michael with in seconds of him standing up and fighting for us I knew all I had to do was sit back and let him work. He is beyond intelligent, very quick on his feet and has no fear of fighting for his clients be it with opposing counsel or a judge. He is truly and advocate for his clients. Michael and his team are second to none. We have been in the lower court (family/supreme) and the higher court (Appellate division) and he has continued to prevail on every level even in the face of some heavy adversity within the courts. If you find yourself in need of a legal team to support you and guide you on winning your case without having to mortgage your home and go into debt for the rest of your life and who genuinely cares, Meth law is the right place. If you don't have him, get him..

I never thought in my life I would publicly leave a positive review for an attorney, but I feel compelled to do so after my recent experience with Nicholas Rohlfing. As my attorney, Nicholas was calmly able to extricate me from a horrific situation that no artist ever wants to be in. When you get all emotionally unhinged, Nicholas keeps you calm and focused on the important things. He always conducts himself with class, maturity and professionalism. That's a rarity in this business. He protected my interests and got me exactly what I was hoping for from the outset of the process. He's a joy to work with.

In negotiating contracts for a series of concerts he secured a my fee at a rate beyond what I had hoped for and managed to have things included in my contract that I hadn't even considered At the end of it the people he was negotiating with liked him and complimented me on my attorney. That to me is a master negotiator. In a separate instance he authored crucial letters and refinements relative to a collaborators agreement, all to a very favorable outcome. He is easy and efficient to work with and I trust him implicitly. I give him my highest recommendation.

She carefully examined all the details of the case and went out of her way to bring the justice to my case. Not only did she secure the right compensation for me but also helped in getting the loss of wages due to the long recovery period. I am very thankful to her for her help and the compassion that she has is truly remarkable.

I am Jennifer, working in a software company, met with an accident two months back in my company. As per the Law, it is the right of every employee to be compensated by the company, if the accident occurs in the office premises. But, my company refused to compensate me and I was unable to pay the high treatment cost. One of my friends suggested me to contact Stephanie Ovadia for the legal assistance. The legal assistance of Stephanie Ovadia helped me to get adequate compensation. This was seriously a big challenge for me to claim for the compensation from my company. All this has been possible only with the best legal assistance of this reputed legal attorney. I am very happy with the services of Stephanie Ovadia. I suggest all the victims of personal injury to contact Stephanie Ovadia for the legal representation in case you receive any kind of physical damage.

I am a university student and live in New York. I was recently involved in a motorbike accident. A car crashed with me and I was brutally injured. One of my relatives suggested that i should take services of Stephanie Ovadia law firm. And I cannot be more glad that I did. Not only did I got justice but I was also availed monetary help. My expenses due to this injury were all covered up. The staff of this firm was really friendly and are really helpful. I was helped with the medical process and then later on, they kept me in the loop about the status of my case. I did not worry as I was confident they will take care of all the formalities. Whenever I called them, the staff was very courteous and helpful. I would highly recommend the services of Stephanie Ovadia law firm to anyone who is looking for a good personal injury lawyer. I am forever grateful that I hired the services of this firm. Highly recommended!!

Great firm. They represent me on my will, trusts, business, etc. They have always been good with me. They care. My primary attorney is William Harbison, one of the partners, and he is a great guy. I'm very fortunate to have found him and this firm. Plus, he knows many people in other areas, that he can recommend. I found my accountant through him. I enjoy working with him and others at this firm. They care about their clients.

I hired Naveed to look over a contract between myself and a film company. Naveed not only noticed things that needed to be removed from the proposed contract to me, but also had many ideas about what should be added in the contract to protect me. Naveed was very helpful, patient, and experienced. I'll be using him in the future.

I would recommend these attorneys to any of my family and friends. They were very knowledgeable and fought for me even when I had a citation against me. The police officers found me at fault and gave me a ticket even though I was innocent. No lawyers would take my case because I had received the citation, and I had just about given up on the case but these attorneys picked up the case, fought hard, took it all the way to trial and delivered me a WIN! To God be the Glory!

BJ was referred to my brother and I by another local attorney as she did not handle personal injury cases. From the moment I spoke to BJ I knew I wanted to hire him, but after he came out to meet with me while I was in Southern California, it was confirmed he would be the man I hired. I live in Boise, ID and my father lived in Fullerton, CA where he was hit by a moving vehicle and killed. BJ has completely stood by our side from the first time we spoke, guided us and kept me focus through the entire process. His background from growing up and work history makes him the most down to earth, educated and passionate attorney. Our case settled 6 months and 4 days later without ever having to step foot into a courtroom. I am so thankful that I know BJ and that I will forever have him as a part of my life story. I tell him often he will continue to be blessed in life because of the man he is. Thank you, Sir! -Sylvia B.

Mr. Richard Sakoda is a very hardworking individual that has one goal in mine, and that goal is keeping his clients satisfied going above and beyond the scope of work requirements to ensure all areas of your problems are satisfied. He is knowledgeable of the work he does, trustworthy, excellent communicator who keeps you informed at all times. He discusses all relevant factors about your case, gives you alternatives, and provides advice in making the best decision to your case. In our family experience, we have gone through three -(3) Lawyers, but we were not satisfied with their work we requested. We needed a legalized Will written to assure others won't have the ability to take away assets and properties that the deceased will leave to the appointed person/caretaker. But each Laywer we went to and paid to write the Will, were not exactly how we explained to them and therefore the Will needed to be rewritten. Instead of having the same Lawyer to redo the Will, we seek another Lawyer. A friend recommended Mr. Richard Sakoda. We met with him, asked questions and he were straight-forward with his answers. We told him our situation and what we wanted done. He immediately commenced working on the issue that we wanted fixed of which previous Lawyers we went to did not do unless we paid additional fee. Mr. Sakoda accomplished the Will the way we exactly wanted it to be done and completed it in a timely manner. We are now releived that no one; especially other family members, will not be able to intrude and be disruptive in making every effort to take-away or be a part owner of properties and assets that the deceased leave behind to the appointed person. Mr. Sakoda is a good listener with unique combination of intuitive and analytical abilities. I highly recommend Mr. Sakoda to any person seeking assistance in writting a legalized Will as he is a professional and one of the best Lawyers that provides satisfaction guarantee to his clients.

My father was rear-ended while completely stopped at a light; clearly, the other driver wasn’t paying attention at all and hit my dad’s car. We tried just going through insurance initially but it seemed like we couldn’t get their time of day. After a friend of the family told us about Tony and his firm, we called and they actually took good care of us. From the initial consultation with ernesto, to the countless phone calls we had to make to the firm for updates and treatment adjustments, each time we didn’t feel like we were being ignored or put off. If you actually want a lawyer, and a team, that will help you every step of the way, call Sgro and Roger. My dad and I had never used an attorney before and it was a good experience, especially because all of the losses we had were compensated.

I was in an accident and didn't think that Sgro & Roger did personal injury cases; I went to their website and found that they recently began taking on PI cases so I decided to give the office a call. I was impressed with how nicely I was treated by the attorneys, specifically Mr. Sgro and Meredith Weiner. They made me feel like my case was just as important as the rest of the cases they must've been working on. Plus I got reimbursed for the cost of my medical treatment and damage to my vehicle. I'd recommend this office to anybody in the city.

Several years ago I worked with Tony Sgro on a small criminal matter. He and his associates were always on top of my case and never let anything slip. It was very easy to get ahold of the firm and definitely worth the money to get a private attorney and not an appointed attorney. Considering going back to his firm to get my records sealed. Great experience.

“Erin Jacobson is hands down the best music and entertainment attorney that I’ve ever dealt with! I’ve hired many lawyers to assist in music licensing and publishing deals over my career and have have not had any that I would rave about. They all essentially did their job to some extent, but none of them actually worked hard for me or even pretended to be interested. Erin is not only very intelligent and professional, she also really cares about my business and takes pride in her work. Often, when you give a lawyer a retainer you have to hunt them down for updates…not Erin. She’s easy to get in touch with, quick to respond and always on top of it. If you want an attorney that will work hard for you, I’d obviously recommend her!”

Top Questions to Ask a Lawyer

  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.

    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.
