Won “best case scenario” judgment Should you ever find yourself needing a family lawyer, I highly recommend Andrew Eliot. He was recommended as one of the best CT / NY family attorneys, which I needed with a complex NY agreement that was interpreted in Connecticut. Long story short: Andy helped me win a best case scenario judgment. Andy laser focused on the key issues, brought in game changing experts, handled himself with poise despite a lowball opponent — all while being mindful of fees. I trust him. It is clear that he genuinely cares about his clients and families. The process may suck, but this is the guy you want on your side.

Mrs.Holbert is the best family law lawyer I could have ever hired to represent us. A pleasure to work with. My case was very complicated. Along with a NCO in place throughout my entire case, made it extremely difficult. But Mrs. Holbert did an amazing job handling the complications of the matter as well as being the 3rd party contact to the co-parent. I was completely amazed and impressed how well she handled all the stress of my case. If you are dealing with a narcissistic co-parent Mrs. Holbert is amazing in dealing with them. From our first meeting, she explained everything to me in terms I could easily understand and was always very responsive when I had questions outside of our meetings. If anyone is looking for a knowledgeable lawyer Mrs. Holbert is your best bet. She was not only "extremely" knowledgeable, but she was highly sensitive to the fact that it was proving to be a traumatic experience for all involved. She goes above and beyond. Works well with GAL's. I was extremely pleased with mine and my daughters outcome. Mrs. Holbert's legal representation restored my faith in the justice system for sure. So again. I'm confident that you too will not be disappointed. If you're seeking legal help as a child custody client do not hesitate ,Mrs Holbert is reasonable and worth every cent.

Jensen was instrumental in helping us break up a log jam with regards to an insurance claim. There were multiple parties involved: our insurance, the HOA, the HOA's insurance, and a few others. Opposing lawyers wanted to litigate, others were incompetent and Jensen expertly navigated them all.

He understands estate planning, wills, trusts, and probate issues exceptionally well and can put them in a language you can understand. He is extremely personable and is passionate about getting you the best solution possible for whatever the need. He is extremely ethical and someone you can trust implicitly with your legal needs.

“I now live in PA but needed a lawyer in Washington State to help with my Paternity/Child Custody issues. I spoke to multiple lawyers in Washington and felt they really didn’t care and were only interested in getting the huge retainer they required up front. Feeling uncomfortable I started searching for lawyers again and came across Terry L. Smith. I went on his website and read the comments from people he has helped so I called him. This was the best move I ever made. Terry and everyone in his office were knowledgeable, professional, personable and just a pleasure to work with. They made me feel like they really cared about my case and they really did care even though I was 3000 miles away. They responded to every email within hours and also returned all calls promptly. It turned out I was not the father of the child in question but Terry also helped me re-coup all the child support I already paid out. I could not have done any of this without Terry and his staff’s excellent work. I would strongly recommend Terry and his office for your Paternity/Child Custody legal needs. Thanks again to Terry and everyone in the office!”

I hired Phil due to some property issues I was having with a developer working an adjacent property to mine and concern over city decisions that would affect me and my property. Phil made himself available when needed coming on-site a couple of times to review the situation, also met with the developer when I needed questions answered and made himself available for meetings with me - some on short notice. He helped guide me to a settlement with both the city and developer which provides minimal impact to me and my property and even provides some benefits from the development, all while identifying and utilizing the only leverage I had. Phil was recommended to me by another attorney I worked with for another issue. She stated she heard good things from other clients regarding Phil. I definitely would recommend Phil to anyone and am thankful I was able to find him after being disappointed trying to work with several other attorneys - some who overstated their level of expertise. I was really impressed with him and liked him the first time he came out to my property and we talked in person. I knew he would be able to answer my questions and help me achieve a satisfactory resolution. He is very knowledgeable in his field of expertise and set the tone regarding legal ramifications – just what I needed. I would highly recommend him to anyone that needs help in his legal field of expertise.

We had some questions as sellers about an addendum to a purchase and sales agreement for some open land, especially on the issue of avoiding liability for any issues that could arise in the future, and also on proper wording to be legally sound. Phil grasped what we needed done immediately and made excellent suggestions for changes in a very timely way, and in a very short period of time. All this through a phone conversation and emailing of documents. His grasp of real estate issues allowed him to be extremely efficient and therefore cost effective.

We hired Alli Keller after going to a famous downtown firm that advertised themselves as the best. They were the best in billing us timely for barely any results. They nickeled and dimed us, and did not even call us to explain to us what our adoption process would be like. When we raised the issue that we needed more information, they showed us the door, and thank god we found Alli Keller's firm. Her entire office was very caring, and she cared very much about our family situation and our child.

I am happy to tell of my professional relationship with Alexandra Keller. Since moving to the Seattle area from California, I wanted to assure that my estate documents were up to date and legally binding in the state of Washington. I found a number of lawyers who could help me. When I asked for a price estimate, I found that some required money upfront or a retainer fee. Others stated that their fee would be as much as $350 an hour but would not give a time estimate. I could not promise an unspecified amount without a price range estimate. When I contacted Alexandra, telling her exactly what I wanted, she told me that iwould be $400 - $800. She rewrote my Revocable Living Trust, my Will, a Durable Power of Attorney for Finance, a Durable Power of Attorney for Health Care, and a Health Care Directive. Due to a family death, I needed my trust agreement to reflect a change. I have been extremely pleased with the five newly written documents. Alexandra did charge the $800, but justifiably so. She made several helpful suggestions for my consideration while writing these documents. and it all takes time and effort. When we met for the final signing and notarization, she went over everything allowing me to ask questions. She followed up by sending me an itemized statement of her charges and wrote off all of the extra time to stay within her stated estimate. She also sent forms upon which to list personal tangible property, naming a recipient for those items that do not need to be included in any other document. You will find Alexandra to be very kind and patient, very intelligent, and focused upon service that meets your needs. If in the future I have any legal needs, I will seek counsel with Alexandra. If a concern is outside her area of expertise, I know she will make a wise referral. In addition, I want to add that her office is easy to get to, on 35 th Avenue, close to the University with ample free parking.

Al asked all the right questions, made sure in no uncertain terms that I knew my options and responsibilities, and did no less than what I hired him for.

There are no words to express our appreciation for Lindsay. She helped at a time when we had issues going on with both our parents. Our Dad had dementia. It made it very difficult getting him to understand about the Medical POA, Living Will, etc...Lindsay was very patient going over everything until she knew he understood about all the documents. She also fit us in to take care of this without an appt. (what lawyer have you ever heard of would do that). Someone who has dementia you never know what the day will bring. If Lindsay hadn't been so understanding what happened next would have been unbearable. Our father broke his hip, had surgery, went into a home and died two days before Christmas. Just 2 weeks after everything had been completed. We were able to make the right medical decisions for him, pay his bills, etc... without any additional stress. In regards to our Mother. I had taken upon myself to get my mom on Medicaid in 2010. Not realizing that we would lose an additional 50,000. All because I wasn't informed about what documents I would need to protect my parents and future generations. I even used a regular lawyer to write my dad's will. All of which was a bad idea. Someone I knew mentioned using an Elder Lawyer and recommended Lindsay. Which I am forever grateful for. Lindsay takes care of making sure my mom stays on Medicaid every year. She made sure we had the right Will for my dad so that when he passed. My mom wouldn't be kicked off of Medicaid. She is also helping us take care of Probate, etc...for my dad. Taking a huge burden off my family. We tell everyone we know that is taking care of their parents. Don't make the mistakes we did. Go To Lindsay Graves and she will protect you and their parents.

With Lindsay's help, we were able to retire my mother from her job, secure her insurance and property, and ultimately find a wonderful nursing home where she's receiving top-notch care.

After moving from Michigan to Wisconsin in late 2019, one of my top priorities was to revisit my Estate Planning Documents that were completed in Michigan with my family attorney there. My goal was to ensure that my documents complied with Wisconsin law. This project was a special priority for me since my wife had passed away in March of 2019, and my intent was to locate a competent attorney who specialized in Estate Planning. So I started making telephone calls to numerous attorneys in this area listed in the Yellow Pages. I had many questions for them. Finally, I found the Frozena Law Firm. After asking the receptionist several questions, I made an appointment. After my first appointment and having a very informative and productive meeting with Angela Frozena, who was very congenial and very knowledgeable. She briefed me regarding what additional information I must provide her, so we setup a future appointment for after I returned from vacation in Europe in three weeks. Upon returning from Europe, I returned to Frozena Law Firm for my second appointment. At this appointment, Angela had already received the documents from my former attorney in Michigan, and had the draft of my new estate plan prepared, and sent the documents via encrypted email to my home in Racine. After reviewing the draft documents, I returned them to the firm for finalization. At my final appointment, everything was organized and Angela had already made arrangements for the witnesses to be present. Everything went so smoothly, and I was impressed with Angela's knowledge, efficiency, sincerity and her positive attitude. Her professionalism is second to none. And along the way, Angela and I communicated via telephone and email. I was so impressed with the courtesy and respect shown to me, that I am happy to share my experiences with Angela, and to highly recommend the Frozena Law Firm to anyone in need of competent, efficient estate planning services.

Stephen Withers helped us to draft and execute our Wills, Trusts and Healthcare Proxies. He was extremely thorough, professional and responsive throughout the entire process. Our knowledge of these documents was elementary, and he took the extra time to make sure we understood each document's content and purpose. We would highly recommend this skilled attorney!

I am a Realtor since 1996 in Peachtree City and have conducted multiple real estate transactions at the law office of Slepian, Schwartz & Langaard. The service is always excellent. He and his staff have a high level of integrity and knowledge regarding all the legalities surrounding real estate in our area. From the closing, to the buyers & sellers to the lender wants, needs and procedures he gets it all done with everyone getting the results they expected and walking out of the office with smiles! I have had questions pop up and they have been answered to above my expectation with help and resource knowledge. I never hesitate directing my clients to Eric's office and his staff for Real Estate needs. Over the years Eric has also become our family attorney for incorporations, wills, etc. I trust him with my family and do not hesitate directing others to his office for service.

Mr. Slepian and his team did a great job of handling my needs when my father passed away. Without Eric's help I wouldn't have been able to sort through all of the details.

Stephanie’s approach to clients is hard to find in this industry. She immediately makes you feel welcome and important. She listens and provides insights to help the client understand the issues and the possible solutions available. Hiring an attorney can be a frustrating and challenging process. After the initial consultation, I knew the search had ended. I have been a client for a few years and have referred many happy friends.

Jim Abood was very kind and patient and highly knowledgeable with my probate case. I was pretty clueless about the hows and whys, but he made me feel comfortable and assuring me as the progression of my case moved forward. Whenever I had questions, he was so calm in his explanations. I chose him because of a consultation I had and he didn't let me down. Thank you sooo much Jim. I'm forever grateful for your calm during such a hurtful and sad time in my life.

I have know Quinn for many years and have referred many clients to him for their estate planning needs. In addition, as a personal injury and medical malpractice lawyer, I have asked him to advise my own clients at the conclusion of significant cases where the amount recovered gives rise to long term distribution and estate planning implications. Quinn is a top notch, well-credentialed lawyer whom I would recommend to anyone.

Ryan is amazing at what he does. He helped my husband and I get primary custody of my stepsons and he never quit fighting for us, even when we were overwhelmed and ready to give up. We recommend him to anyone who asks especially to our friends who are fighting for equal parenting rights as men.

Ryan has rightfully earned a fabulous reputation as one of the most talented and ethical legal professionals around. So much knowledge and more important, genuine care for his clients. Can't praise him and his entire firm (shout out to Peter Rowles as a great estate planning lawyer and real estate specialist). Very fortunate to have Mr. Weese in my corner for all of life's needs and curveballs.

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.

    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.
