I can’t recommend Robert high enough if you are in a tough spot. Very easy to talk to. Always got back to me in a timely manner. Helped me the whole way through my case. This was all new to me and the best thing is Robert talked to me like a person and didn’t talk down to me. My family really liked that about him. Very professional and I would not hesitate to hire him if you need help.

I am so happy Robert handled my case, he is professional and well-spoken. To say this was a very important and traumatic case for me is an understatement, Robert kept me updated and always answered any questions I might have had. During my court date, he showed up overly prepared which showed me just how much he cared about my case. I would highly recommend Robert’s services to anyone wanting to feel like they matter throughout the entire process.

As a business owner who has lived in several states and metropolitan areas including Los Angeles and Phoenix, I have utilized my share of attorneys for transactions and legal issues over the years. These experiences have impressed on me the reality that so few lawyers are truly great at what they do. Attorney Lee is great at his job. Attorney Lee not only has what it takes, he is the best lawyer I have encountered. He is professional, highly intelligent, and accessible. His practice should be the gold standard for which others strive. He took care of my case with knowledge and ease stemming from his broad legal experience and passion for his clients and craft. He handled a challenging situation for me…and I am confident that he will do the same for you.

I highly recommend Jeff as a criminal defense attorney. Not only did I end up with the exact verdict I hoped, but Jeff made the entire process much less stressful. He took care of all the necessary paperwork and kept me informed and optimistic the entire case. He is sincerely one of the nicest people I have met. He also had very fair costs. I would highly recommend Jeff as your criminal defense attorney.

I'm a Virginia lawyer and I'm a client of Shayan Noor, why? Because he is an excellent lawyer, he's personable, highly intelligent, knows the law and has experience with the courts, which makes him a killer lawyer. I confidently tell my clients to reach out to him and see if he is a good fit for them and when they retain him, he fights for them tooth and nail and has achieved many astonishing outcomes for his clients. When a surgeon goes to another surgeon to have the same type of surgery he does, done on himself, you as a patient can also trust the surgeon who is doing surgery on the surgeon. When a lawyer has Shayan Noor represent them in court, you too can have Shayan represent you with confidence.

Mr. Noor is simply an amazing attorney. He works with you and he is very affordable. He also responds to any questions or concerns promptly and keeps you updated on your case. I’m referring him to all my friends and family. Give him a chance and you’ll be a lifetime member with him. Amazing personality and professional ethics.

Shayan is what you are looking for. He is really professional and knowledgeable; trustworthy and communicative, but beside all that, he actually cares about you and yours, not money hungry machine. In my case, Shayan could just take an initial “easy money” deal but he advised me not to do it, even knowing that the case was going to take longer for him and us, at the end was worthy, because he gain our trust and is now our family lawyer. He is a real legal advisor, believe me; “he is the man”

We were desperate and needed someone that would hear our small voice in a huge system. Mr. Gonzales came highly recommended. The professional staff helped us secure an appointment immediately. After our consultation, we knew this was the place for us and hired him on the spot. Mr. Gonzales is professional, personable, knowledgeable, honest, caring and helpful. He gave us his contact number and made himself available 24/7. Any time I contacted him, I always received a return call or message without delay. If he was not available for any reason, we would still receive a return call or message from attorney Christian Henricksen. These two attorneys are a true DREAM TEAM. He exceeded our expectations. He is not just an awesome attorney, he is an awesome person. If you have found yourself or a family member in need of an attorney, Mr. Gonzales comes with the highest of recommendations. Thank you for everything Mr. Gonzales.

I was referred to Mr. Joe Gonzales by a law enforcement colleague who had dealt with him several times while working cases at the DA’s office. I was given Mr. Gonzales’s cell number and calling him was the best decision I had ever made. My initial meeting and impression of Mr. Gonzales was that he was a professional and he listened attentively while I explained what had occurred that led up to my arrest and charge. He understood that I could not accept anything but a dismissal or an acquittal or I would lose my career and future goals. He advised me that he would be working with a team that included Mr. Christian Henrickson and that I would be getting two lawyers for the price of one. I struggled emotionally through a year and a half of court dates until the case went to trial. Despite all my fears, Mr. Gonzales and his team reassured me and I knew they believed in my innocence. When Mr. Gonzales goes into “trial mode” it’s amazing. His cross examinations of the prosecution’s witnesses and complainant were direct and strategically effective. The trial was very stressful for me and as we were waiting for the jury to return with their verdict after deliberation I will never forget how terrified I was and how Mr. Gonzales calmingly placed his hand on mine and smiled and said, “Do not lose your faith now.” He was confident until the very end and even when I had feared the worst he believed in my case. The jury came back very quickly with a unanimous decision and acquitted me of the charge. I will never forget what I went through to fight for the truth and I will never forget how hard Mr. Gonzales and his team fought for me. They were amazing and I felt so blessed to have them fighting in my corner. Joe, from the bottom of my heart I want thank you and will never forget what you did. I would recommend Joe Gonzales to anyone who needs a lawyer because I truly believe and know from experience that he and his team are the best lawyers a person can have. His integrity, experience, and knowledge are assets for anyone who needs a professional lawyer to fight for their case. I would highly recommend him!

I was very concerned about what attorney would represent me. I wanted and attorney that would they be fair and understanding to my case. I was driving up IH35 and saw a billboard with Joe Gonzales picture and phone number. I decided at this time I would like to schedule a meeting with him to discuss my case. My first meeting with Joe was professional and honest, he allowed me to discuss my side of the story without judgement. He listened attentively and made sure I understood the pros and cons to include the direction we should take to ensure I received deferred adjudication. Each time I was given a court date he was present and ready to go. Joe Gonzales met with the DA's office and negotiated the best deal for me. During the whole process I trusted Joe and he had my best interest at heart. Joe keeps you informed and he cares more about the client and the outcome. I appreciate all that Joe did for me and my family, he is one of the best attorney's in San Antonio. Thank you Joe for everything......your more than an attorney your a friend!

Words cannot express the gratitude, the heartfelt obligation she provided for me during my fight for justice. She is the best. I was wrongly accused of a violation of the law that I did not commit. I was extremely emotional, I dealt with anxiety and panic attacks. She did not judge me, she comforted although I was having emotional breakdowns. I was able to rely on her judgements, her sincerity and her efforts to fight. She reassured me my fight was her fight, and even helped me breathe though when I felt like I was an emotional wreck. What matters the most in the event when I lost one of my twin baby’s to death she made sure she made appearances and decision that benefited me. I love her whole team because of the whole team put an effort to fight we had case law that was unstoppable and won our writ of mandamus. I am forever grateful and would recommend them to anyone that experience the injustice that I had. Thank u so much u saved my livelihood.

After nine years and three different lawyers, I found Kristen Carr at Varghese Summersett at a time when I needed her the most. Through these years, I’ve learned an important lesson: lawyers are not your friends, nor should they have their own agenda—they are there to litigate for you and your case. That is exactly what Kristen Carr did. Kristen is not only incredibly skilled in navigating the courtroom, but she also knows how to litigate effectively with a judge and conduct precise, impactful cross-examinations. What truly sets her apart, though, is her ability to pick up on critical details that may seem obvious to me as the client but are often difficult to articulate. She would grasp these nuances and fully understand who and what we were up against. For the first time in my long and difficult custody battle, I felt validated as a client. These cases are incredibly messy and emotionally exhausting, but every time I spoke with Kristen, I felt a sense of relief. I knew I was in capable hands and had someone genuinely fighting for me. I will never forget the first time we met. I didn’t even have to step into the courtroom—a place that is both intimidating and highly tense. Kristen walked into the waiting room, handed me papers the judge had signed, and said, “Go get your son.” In that moment, years of fear, stress, and uncertainty melted away. While I had strong evidence in my favor, I can’t overstate how Kristen’s handling of my case probably saved years of my life. After nearly a decade of fighting with ineffective lawyers, I could finally breathe knowing Kristen was fighting for me and that she truly knew her stuff. I would highly recommend Varghese Summersett for any type of case you are facing. Kristen Carr, thank you—you have truly helped change my life and my son’s life forever.

My family and myself hired Mr. Bednar in the midst of some very tragic, complicated and dire circumstances. My son, who was a juvenile at the time needed representation on some very serious charges. He himself was victimized by the alleged legend victim, but there were many complicated layers to the case. David treated us like family and had sincere and genuine compassion for my son and every detail of his situation. Mr. Bedner has an excellent understanding of the law and the inner workings of Court proceedings. He uses his passion for each case and individual that he defends to get the best results that can be hoped for. I highly recommend Mr. Bednar to help families untangle legal criminal cases that they may be faced with. He was truly was an answer to prayer.

David assured me and my family that I’d be home with my name cleared and here I am writing this review to bear witness of his expertise. He’s extremely thorough, professional, and compassionate.

Not to knock my Public Defender, but she had already written me off after a 90 second conversation, and told me I should plead guilty to a deal without asking more than 3 questions. I almost just accepted this, but knew I wasn’t guilty and decided not to be a victim of the system built to protect me. I first called Decio to ask his opinion on my case, and I immediately felt he was invested in finding out the full details and did not jump to any conclusions. After our brief 10 minute phone discussion, he laid out a few ways he thought the case could go, but offered to meet in person the same day to provide a more in depth assessment. We met at his office, which is very warm and welcoming, and went to a private conference room where for about 30 mins he and I discussed the case, after which he told me how he thought he could best fight the case for me, and that all hope was not lost as the Public Defender had made me feel at my initial hearing. His confidence in me and what I was telling him convinced me he was going to be not only my best chance at a fair outcome, but to deal with someone who looked at me as an individual, not just another case number to get through. Throughout the case, Decio personally reached out to me at least a dozen times to keep me up to speed, to ask for meetings, info, etc.... I never once had to go looking for him. When he explained something over the phone that I just wasn’t sure or clear about, he always invited me to come meet at the office to work through things, always reassuring. The longer our relationship grew, the more I could feel him becoming personally attached to my outcome, and it really felt like I had someone on my team who wanted not only the best outcome for the case, but for my life moving forward in general. If you’re on the fence about whether to hire a private attorney, I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Decio, and am so very certain now making the call to him changed the path my life was headed. With the public defender, I’d be living the rest of my life with a conviction and the stigma and shame for something I wasn’t guilty of. With Decio, NO CONVICTION, CASE DISMISSED! And also, just as important, I don’t feel like a helpless civilian who can be railroaded into guilt, I know that if you have the right help, you can push back! Thank you again for everything Decio!

Beyond grateful for Decio Rangel’s legal help. When I initially called Decio, he was calming, professional, and was able to urgently schedule an appointment to see us. We retained both Decio and Mark for our case. Throughout the procedure Decio was always available and reachable upon any questions we had. He walks that extra mile for his clients and really shows that he genuinely cared. He took initiative to contact the law enforcement to handle all legal aspects of our case. Our case was dismissed thanks to Decio and Mark. Great attorneys and I would highly recommend this office for anyone in need of a attorney.

I worked with Tad on my case for a year! He would text me back weekend or not, super friendly. Explained the whole process of everything in a way I could understand what was really going on. I was accused of a crime I truly did not commit and he believed me. Unfortunately we could not prove a phone call conversion in trial we we settled for a plea. Went from 2 major felonies count 2 and a 3. Down to a misdemeanor 1, probation for 2 years that’s it. Great guy enjoyed working with him but hopefully I never see him again unless it’s a run in at the store.

I called Tad just days before my pre-trial hearing and he was nice enough to accommodate me into his busy schedule. He took my concerns very seriously and was very thorough in investigating all the details of my case. He was available at any time of the day when I had a question or concern. His law office is focused on trial, and not just pleading out. If you desire a plea bargain he will work to achieve the outcome you desire, but dont fear if you want to go to trial. He is dedicated and thorough and will work hard to achieve a positive outcome. My case was dismissed, but Tad a solid game plan, with motions for dismissal, and a trial plan if the case was not dismissed prior to trial. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a well qualified trial attorney.

Tad was recommended by a friend and was above and beyond what I expected. After my first call we met immidiatly and Tad took action gathering information. Tad was very informative and easy to deal with. Tad very clearly broke down my case, possible outcomes and different strategies to approach with. End result was a case dismissal for me and one very happy client. Only lawyer I will ever recommend. 10/10

I came to Mr. Paskey to help me with troubles that were brought on. When i came to the firm, they welcomed me in and herd everything that i had to say. Mr. Paskey told me up front that he would like to help but could not promise anything, and also told me that he did not want me to hire him right away, to go out and look at other lawyers to be sure. I knew from the beginning that i choose the right person for the job. During the entire process he kept me informed and made professional references as to what would be smart to do through the process (ex: hiring a court stenographer). In the end of everything he always made sure that i was doing okay and tried to work with me even when i lived out of state. When it came down to the final trial he worked his hardest to make sure that I was comfortable and that i remained calm. The trial came out in favor and i couldn't be more grateful that he handled my case and fought his hardest for me. I am forever grateful that he took time out of his busy days to handle my case. Thank You so much and peace be with you Mr. Paskey!

I can tell you right now they are in this for the right reasons and will not take advantage of you or your money. Amanda seems like she really genuinely cares for her clients. She never once made me feel like she was rushing me and listened to everything I said. For once I didn’t feel invisible I felt heard and that means so much! Amanda and her team is for sure the way to go! She’s definitely in this for all the right reasons! I can not thank you and your staff enough for the kindness and hope you have given me again.

I recently had the privilege of being represented by Ed Flores in a high profile street racing case, and I cannot express enough how grateful I am for his outstanding service. From the very beginning, him and his team demonstrated a deep understanding of the law and a commitment to my case that went above and beyond my expectations. From my initial consultation, it was clear that Ed and his team were experts in criminal defense. They meticulously reviewed all the details of my case, identifying key areas to challenge the prosecution’s evidence. Their knowledge of the legal system and past case precedents was instrumental in building a strong defense. Throughout the entire process, I was kept informed about every development in my case. Ed made sure I understood my options and the potential outcomes at every stage. This transparency and open communication provided me with peace of mind and confidence that I was in good hands. What impressed me most was the strategic approach taken by Ed. They left no stone unturned, conducting thorough investigations and consulting with experts to support my defense. Their tenacity in the courtroom was evident as they presented compelling arguments that ultimately led to my case having the half a dozen charges dropped which included a felony as well. Beyond their legal expertise, the team at Flores Law Group was incredibly compassionate and supportive. The ultimate result speaks for itself – my street racing case was dismissed, and I can now move forward with my life without the burden of a criminal record. This outcome was a direct result of Ed's hard work, dedication, and exceptional legal skills. I highly recommend Flores Law Group to anyone in need of a criminal defense attorney. They are truly the best in the business, and I am forever grateful for their help. If you find yourself in need of legal representation, look no further than Flores Law Group – they will fight for you every step of the way!

I was referred to Mr. Flores by a friend. This was a blessing in disguise, from the start Mr. Flores and his staff were kind, honest, and informative. My case was regarding a car accident with a DUI driver hitting the vehicle I was in. The case was complicated due to many factors. Yet, I never felt like Mr.Flores attitude or approach changed during this time. Each conversation with him and Ruth felt genuine and full of information. We ended this 3 year case with him recommending a great book to any parent new or old, “ The Conscious Parent”. Thank you for your help and for the great recommendation. I feel lucky to have been represented by Mr. Flores.

Mr. Flores has been our attorney for almost 3 years, through a long and difficult case that has just recently been resolved. We are beyond grateful for all of the work and time Mr. Flores and his team gave to my case. He was upfront and knowledgeable with our outcomes, and we feel that his advice got us the best possible result. Through the worst time in our life, he was there with us and has helped change our life for the better. From the beginning consultation, we trusted Mr. Flores and felt that he would have our best interest in mind. He always answered any questions we had and made us feel that he was on our side to guide us to a resolution. Ruth, his office manager, is also amazing and helped us throughout the process. Thanks to Mr. Flores and his team, we can continue on with our life with this case finally resolved. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone in need. Thank you so much for everything Mr. Flores.

I had gotten into trouble with the law in 2000 and was sentenced to prison for eight years in 2001. My wife at the time divorced me and kept my two children from me my entire sentence and then used the fact that I was an ex-felon to continue to keep them from me. Right after my son turned 18 my ex wife tried to come after me for a lot of money. A friend of mine from church was an attorney and told me I need to speak with Mr. Ken Foote. I did and hired him right away. One of the best decisions I have made! Mr. Foote’s knowledge and experience was a huge blessing for me and even though I had to pay some money to my ex wife it was NOTHING compared to what she was trying to do to me and get from me. Mr. Foote was so good that the judge handling my case even apologized to me for my ex wife’s actions and what she was trying to do, in fact he wasn’t even happy with her attorney. I am so thankful to my Lord Jesus for placing Mr. Foote in my life and incredibly grateful to Mr. Foote for how much he cares about his clients and the awesome job he did for me. Thank you Ken Foote and may Jesus bless you and your firm as you continue to be a blessing to others!

They gave me all the options, all the things that could happen and prepared me for the worst and even the best. In the end it was clearly the best as we won our case and my children are protected.

I hired Richard for a case and never spoke to him on the phone only with his assistant. He missed three phone call appointments with me and became very rude when I express my displeasure with the situation (via email of course). I paid him $1100 for no reason, I honestly regret hiring him to terminate my probation early. I filed the motion myself and got it taken care of. Anyone looking to hire an attorney I strongly suggest looking elsewhere. I can only imagine what his clients are going through that are incarcerated.

I've known Mr Scott nettles for roughly a decade, I have referred several friends and family members all leading to acquittals. With regards to myself Scott has handled everything with great success. Not only that but he makes me feel like I am a part of his family, like this case of mine was first priority. I have never met an attorney like him. He definitely is not your average attorney, all he wants to do is win. Dealing with Scott is like dealing with a family member. His only concern is that Justice prevails. If you're looking for an attorney that cares about Justice and ensuring that you're right are upheld and our criminal justice system then this is the attorney you want. He is on your side and will work so hard to win your case. All you have to do is go talk to him for 15 minutes and you will see for yourself. I encourage anybody who is having to go through anything criminal to please reach out to this attorney because you will not be disappointed. I'm not just saying this because I've known him for a decade I'm telling you this because I just sent four more referrals. to Mr nettles not only did he not overcharge them he had everything thrown out for every person that was sent as well. in simple words if you're looking for the best look up Scott nettles take take 10 minutes set an appointment you'll see for yourself best criminal lawyer I've ever met best criminal lawyer.

I recently passed through a small town going faster than I should have (as I was honestly running late to a wedding). Ended up meeting a nice gentleman on the side of the highway and thought I would be looking at a speeding ticket real soon... Well... I thought wrong, and I was actually looking at serving a 90 day sentence at the local bed and breakfast (correctional center). I was referred to Mr. Nettles who “knew the law book from front to back.” I talked with him a few times and he went to work on my case. Later Mr. Nettles went to court on my behalf and took care of everything as he originally said he would. Scott really went above and beyond for me and I’m so thankful (and yes his knowledge of the law is extraordinary). It’s finally over now, and all was made right at town hall. Looking back I’m really not that upset for missing out the accommodations and breakfast! Thanks to Mr. Nettles

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:

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.
