Spencer provided excellent guidance during our union negotiations. We appreciated his reasonable approach and calm advise while assisting us with meetings and strategic planning. He was always accessible and responsive to any questions or guidance we required. Our local has utilized his expertise multiple times in the past and will continue to rely upon him in regards to any future labor issues that occur. Thank you, Spencer.

Spencer has been a pivotal piece of our collective bargaining team for multiple years. His knowledge regarding worker rights and collective bargaining agreements has been pivotal in our ability to negotiate better wages, hours, and working conditions for our work groups. Spencer has assisted us with employee representation, worker injuries, corrective action, and negotiations, providing balanced direction towards a reasonable resolution. I look forward to his continued guidance in the future.

I hired Spencer and vanguard law firm to assist me with an MVA that occurred in November 2021. From the beginning Spencer and his team were thorough, compassionate, very communicative, and explain things well, so that a layman, like my husband and I, could understand what was going on. We just settled the case, and the results far exceeded my expectations. If you are in need of a personal injury or an employment attorney, you would do well to hire Spencer and vanguard law firm!

I was referred to Virginia after being terminated from a position of over 5 years with no notice. Friends had told me that Virginia had experience with this same employer in a different case, and there was a positive outcome. This job meant the world to me. I was a dedicated employee with national awards to back up my performance. However, I was experiencing sexist remarks for almost the entire duration of my tenure there. After a particularly loud and hostile confrontation, I finally told my supervisor that I was going to go against the advice of HR and final a formal grievance. I was fired 4 days later. When I first met with Virginia I was a total wreck. I sobbed almost our entire meeting, and I wasn’t even sure myself of what I was looking for out of our initial meeting. She listened patiently, and at the end of my story she gave me a very honest account of what it would look like to pursue a lawsuit. She didn’t paint a rosy version of events, and she didn’t even commit to taking on the case. Instead, she told me what I would need to do to prepare, and gave me a choice. Throughout the case I felt confident that I was in good hands. Virginia was always open to questions, trustworthy, and diligent in her preparation of evidence. I truly believe that her reputation of ironclad groundwork played an emotional role in the final decision of my past employer. Virginia understood my needs from this endeavor where greater than the financial outcome. We have many healing (albeit concise) conversations about how these types of cases influence organizational behavior. In the end, I felt like I got to experience justice thanks to Virginia. I would recommend her to anyone.

It is never a good way to start the New Year being terminated from your current position. Not only was I taken by surprise when the HR Director asked to speak with me early morning of Jan 10, 2017, she was the only person besides myself in the the meeting. I was given termination paperwork and told that I had 21 days to return it if I was going to receive any type of additional severance from the company. I was also told that I should be able to collect unemployment. Considering it was only myself and the HR Director in the meeting - it would come down to my word against hers if I was unable to collect unemployment or if there was an issue with the termination/severance paperwork. Virginia was able do an initial phone consult with me which put my mind at ease during this stressful time. She let me know what information and paperwork she needed from me to review my case and a fair estimate of the cost involved in the review. I put together all the necessary documentation and met with her at her Downtown Tacoma office. Meeting Virginia in person was one of the best things to come out of my employment being terminated from my previous employer in Fife. Virginia reviewed the paperwork and settlement agreement and set up a phone consult to let me know what she found. I was able to ask questions of her on the phone and was given step by step changes to the wording of the settlement agreement that she recommended. She explained some of the legal wording that was listed so that I would be able to understand what my previous employer was trying to impose on me. Talking to Virginia gave me the confidence to stand up to my previous employer and to ask for changes to be made to the settlement agreement that was mutually beneficial to both parties involved. If I had not contacted Virginia, I probably would have just signed the paperwork and took my chances. I am so glad that my previous employer made the necessary changes to the paperwork that Virginia recommended. I felt like I left the company on my terms, rather than theirs. I was able to collect unemployment as well. I have gone to work for another company and am grateful that Virginia was able to help out during the transition from unemployed to employed. I would recommend her to anyone looking for guidance/legal advise as a result of an employment termination. I will use Virginia's Legal services in the future if I find myself unemployed again or in a motor vehicle accident. She takes the time to communicate with you and follows-up in a timely manner. So many legal issues now a days are so time sensitive. I received e-mails from her over the weekend as well as in the evening. She genuinely cares about her clients.

After working in the workforce for decades and having numerous encounters with discrimination, I had never sought the advice of a lawyer. Rationale was that it was too hard to relive the incidents over and even harder to try to prove that the actions of your employer were discriminatory. The behavior of my current employer became so egregious and unprofessional I had to seek consultation on either to sue or plan an exit strategy. I called and left a message and Virginia called me back while in training out-of-state. She spoke to me multiple times and instructed me on what she needed to get started while still away from the office. I was impressed right away with her efficiency! As instructed, I provided her with input. She reviewed my input and we setup a date to meet. Prior to meeting, she was honest and informed me right away that she was not inclined to take my case on. When we met she asked some pointed questions and allowed me to talk, while she attentively listened. She observed my body language and passion. She then assessed my current situation and cared enough to tell me about what she could see in me as an individual being that she had been in employment law for 28 years. She offered me alternatives (i.e., a referral for potential employment elsewhere and/or encouraged me to do more with my small business). In addition, she clarified that even though she was not willing to take on my potential case another lawyer may view my current situation differently. She informed me of the statutory limitations, if I wanted to pursue further. Based on her feedback, it validated what I already knew, removing all emotions. Her neutral, but caring, review brought me peace that I had not experienced since my encounter with my employer two months prior and it resolved issues I had internally NOT dealt with for decades. I will always be thankful for her efficient, honest and forthright consultation. The universe gives you what your heart desires. For me, it was meeting and consulting with Virginia DeCosta.

Mr Hennessy was simply excellent. He provided outstanding legal advice. I spoke to him about my issue with a nanny agency sending me a false bill, and in less than an hour he found a provision and legal precedent that showed their perpetual term to be invalid. He drafted a letter (on a Friday night) and responded to several emails and his rates are very reasonable. (They should be higher!) I cannot recommend him more!

After a rotten six month expired product shattered one of my teeth, the Grocery chain store (name of Richie Cunningham's ginger friend). .. promised to help, but ended up stalling and blowing me off... Don stepped in and got results. He dotted more "I" s and crossed more "T"s than I could have done, and he not only got the settlement, but I'm positive his professionalism in this case, made that grocery store/food manufacturer be that much more careful that they don't endanger the public again. Strongly recommend his services.

Here’s my experience with Mr. Donald Green: So where do I start? Of course no one likes to talk about divorce and all the ugliness of the process, but when the unfortunate occasion does show up, it will drain you mentally and financially. So, you’ve tried to hold it together and pay all community debts that you owe but, the financial stability you once had is now gone. Now debtors are serving you with court summons, harassing you with phone calls, and without notice creditor pulls money directly from your bank saving account. You’re feeling so defeated that you’re certain you don’t have the energy to fight the legal fight. That’s how it was for me and I’m sure, if you’re reading my post, this probably describes you, too. With incredible luck, I discovered The Law Office of Donald Green. In record time, Attorney Green successfully negotiated settlements with all my creditors or collectors. The professionalism of Attorney Green and his genuine care for my individual situation was amazing. You can count on Attorney Green to be very responsive during critical moments and was ALWAYS able to get a hold of and received and answer back immediately. I highly recommend Attorney Donald Green to anyone who is going through financial troubles and feels like they just need some help! I am in a much better financial place thanks to Donald Green.

When I needed an attorney to handle a contentious employment matter, Mark came highly recommended (“Reach out to Mark. No question. He’s the best”). After working with Mark and his colleague, Maureen, on a complex matter related to a former employer’s NDA, I wholeheartedly agree. Mark is incredibly knowledgeable, strategic, and extremely thorough in every regard. His style is direct yet empathetic, which was displayed when he helped guide me through what was a very trying situation. His colleague Maureen is also great. She was accessible when needed, is super sharp, and thoughtful within every interaction. What was also refreshing to experience, was how both Mark and Maureen always kept things on track, which was appreciated as legal matters can get costly. In the end, the outcome was an extremely positive one and I will forever be thankful to Mark and Maureen for their help and their professionalism. If you ever are in need of a legal team to handle an employment matter, you need to work with Mark and Maureen. No question, they are the best.

After understanding my situation, Mark got into several negotiations with my former employer. He's very conscientious and cares about my benefits. It was a difficult negotiation process because my former employer was not cooperative. Mark gave the other side's lawyer our best reasoning and what normal companies would do for my situation, but my former employer let their ego get in the way, instead of doing the right thing to investigate, they terminate the good person and wanted to pay a small fee to let me go away quietly. Knowing it has been a retaliation I consulted 4 attorneys in New Hampshire, including some well known ones. They were all unwilling to represent me, but Mark stood up after hearing my story and knew I could get better than what was offered. Through his work in the end I gained a substantial amount extra pay.

Russ, Michelle and their office staff assisted me in resolving a complicated felony DWI case. Let me just say, this was the most stressful time of my entire life; when you have a pending legal charge, you spend every day in limbo- feeling scared and uneasy about what the future may or may not hold. I am unsure if I could have made it through those months without the help of their office. As a local business owner and single parent, my life was completely chaotic, even before this added stressor. Russ and Michelle were incredibly knowledgeable, easy to talk to, reassuring and FAST; if I had any question, I could always just shoot over an email and expect a response within hours, sometimes minutes. They kept me informed and were completely honest about exactly what was happening and what I was to expect during the whole ordeal. I knew they were going to fight for my cause, and that they genuinely cared about what was going to happen to me. In the end, they were able to get me probation in a situation where I undoubtedly should have done at least some jail time. If you are skeptical about the price tag- don’t be. You get what you pay for, and your freedom is worth every penny. If you need the best, THEY ARE IT!

I have been involved in the criminal Justice system for over a decade and seen some of the best attorneys Cleveland and Columbus has to offer. Mike Conway is one of them. I witnessed Mike take on six attorneys involved in my case for well over a year. During that time, he was relentless in seeking the truth and Justice. When needed, a savage at times but in the most professional way. Mike’s line of questioning during cross examination in depositions is a true art and it was a pleasure watching him hold people accountable and responsible. Mike has mastered his profession and knows opposing counsels moves before they even make a move. For the above reasons, I could not recommend a better attorney for one’s legal disputes.

I needed to consult with an attorney regarding a situation I was having with my work: I was returning to work after having been on disability leave for about five months. I was very concerned about my company’s inquiries and documentation requirements for my return to work because I had good reason to believe they were infringing on my right to privacy of my Protected Health Information as a currently disabled person and also that they were discriminating against me. It was so incredibly hard to find an attorney who was willing to take my case and consult with me. I called around for many hours with zero luck. And then I found Richard!! He was willing to help me and I was so relieved to finally have found someone who will be on my side. He had excellent suggestions and advice, and reminded me of the privacy and confidentiality I have with him via attorney-client privilege. I felt safe discussing very sensitive matters with him and he really went above and beyond in helping me. It was obvious to me that he is very knowledgeable about employment law. He presented multiple scenarios to me of how my situation might play out and that is why I felt more than prepared when I had to speak with HR again. I am happy to say I am back at work now with all HR and privacy matters having been resolved. If I ever need legal advice on a future employment situation, I know I will be calling Richard again. He was also always prompt at responding to my emails, which was great, because I had certain deadlines to make in regards to my return to work. I cannot thank you enough, Richard.

I got connected to Rich through one of his attorney relationships, and I am so glad I did! I am also an attorney with general knowledge of employment law, and Rich quickly earned my confidence and respect. Rich is both experienced and compassionate - I always felt my stress reduce after we chatted - and he kept me on track/focused on the end goal. With Rich's counsel, I got the exact result I wanted in every sense of the word: I am receiving ALL payments (without even having to provide standard additional documentation) while keeping relationships intact. He skillfully reined me in when I was irritated, which I believe was critical to achieving these results. Rich was exceptionally generous with his time. He knew I didn't want to litigate - my case did not have the potential to involve much money for him - yet he frequently gave me additional time when he did not have to. It is clear to me that Rich genuinely cares about his clients. Highly, highly recommended!!

When looking for legal guidance it was important for me to find a group that would help me in a fast and efficient manner and help me get results. It was important for me to have someone who would listen and also had the legal knowledge and experience to advise me of exactly what my options were and also to help calm my fears and provide the reassurance I needed to make an informed decision. It was very nerve wracking to think of having to work with a lawyer after a past bad experience so it was important to me to feel like the law firm I was working with was completely invested in my wellbeing and the outcome of my case. I was looking for someone that was compassionate, understanding, efficient, and who would communicate with me well throughout the entire process. After researching reviews on the internet and AVVO webpage I contacted The Fraley Law Firm because I was very impressed with their positive reputation. They responded to me quickly and I was able to completely discuss my issue with an attorney. I had read numerous positive reviews about The Fraley Law Firm and once I spoke with them I immediately knew I was in the right place and I am so thankful for their guidance. My lawyer was with me every step of the way, calmed my anxieties and helped me to resolve my issue very quickly. I felt he thoroughly listened to everything I had to say and understood the gravity of my issue and I am grateful that I was able to resolve my matter quickly with their help. They were everything I needed and more and I feel extremely thankful that I found them in my time of need. I highly recommend The Fraley Law Firm!

Jason, is definitely the lawyer you would want when dealing with legal matters or if ur not sure if u even have a case!. I as well as others who didn’t know we had a case came to him “Jason” & he listened to my / our situation and then told us we are going to challenge the situation!. He had more faith in the case than I did. Long story short he didn’t give up, we got a great settlement & even while going through the case and after the case he checked and checks up on me!. He’s more than a lawyer he’s definitely a great person to have in your corner! U definitely won’t regret having this lawyer as your lawyer! I know I don’t and won’t regret having a person like Jason as a lawyer in my corner!

If you need someone truly supportive and understanding, who will be in your corner every step of the way, Jason Pearlman is definitely the person for you. I am immensely grateful to have had Jason represent me. Not only is he exceptionally knowledgeable and informative, but he also genuinely believed in my case when no one else did. I could reach Jason anytime with questions, and he was always available to guide me through the process, provide necessary information, and support me with his valuable time. Thanks to Jason, we achieved a wonderful outcome. He was the only attorney who really believed in my case, boosting my self-esteem and giving me the strength to push forward. Jason empowered me to stand up for myself, and without him, I would never have proceeded with the case. This case was very personal to me, and I am incredibly thankful that I could share my story and be heard. Jason, thank you so much for your time, patience, and support throughout the entire process. You were truly God send and I will always be very grateful for all your guidance.

I was in a dispute with a private disability company a few years back and Scott’s help was absolutely invaluable to my win in the dispute. Throughout the years Scott would help out in this matter from time to time and I sincerely credit his help as the biggest factor in keeping me from feeling totally alone in the dispute. If you’ve never been in a situation where it’s you against a well established insurance company, it can easily feel like a David vs Goliath situation at times. Though having Scott around I was always sure he’d never let said insurance company get away with anything ridiculous. I’d easily recommend Fegley Law Firm to anyone in need of legal help. Hiring Scott was easily the best decision I made in regards to the whole matter. I couldn’t have done it alone. Thanks Scott!

When I contacted Scott Fegley, I was totally panicked about a Performance Improvement Plan I received at work. I am so grateful for a couple of peers that suggested I contact him. He kept me positive and productive at work while he did all the heavy-lifting. My outcome was absolutely fantastic. I was able to walk away from a horrible manager with my dignity and a very decent package. I would use his services again in a heartbeat if needed!

While we are in the process of appealing an EDD case, I am confident that the result will be what could have been expected by any attorney. It is a rushed situation and they are doing everything possible to help me. In fact, one staff member actually replied to me at almost 2 AM yesterday morning about a meeting I missed. I was surprised to see it right after I sent mine! I know she's working on something. Anyway, they are amazing and thorough. I would recommend them to anyone.

I consulted him regarding termination pending in 72 H. He wrote a letter and saved me. I didn’t do anything wrong but couldn’t defend myself alone. Didn’t know how and what to say. I realised I was simply discriminated on multiple counts and was not aware of that. I wish I new him a decade ago.

I hired Mr. Lichtman over a year ago to represent my brother in a federal case. My family and I had initially hired another lawyer who stole our money and butchered my brother's defense. We were beginning to lose hope and accepted that my beloved brother was going to spend most of his life in prison. My good friend in California referred me to Mr. Lichtman and I contacted him immediately. After our initial call, my family and I felt like we hit the lottery. Thanks to our superstar lawyer, my brother will be home soon. He is a literal legal genius and knows exactly what to do and what not to do – a quality most lawyers lack. He genuinely cared about my brother’s case and spent a lot of time answering our questions. If you're looking for an incredible and aggressive defense lawyer, I highly recommend hiring him. Mr. Lichtman saved my brother’s life.

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:
    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.
