I contacted Mr. Fleming to seek his services in a green card application. Unlike other lawyers that I contacted who were ready to charge $2000 for minimal work, Mr. Fleming provided with all the paperwork and guidance I would need to fill the paperwork out myself, free of charge. He assured me that I had a simple case and didn't need to pay someone for these services. I really appreciated that. I will absolutely contact him for any future needs.

Mr. Fleming handled my divorce. In doing so he advised me about the easiest and most cost effective method. He basically told me there were several methods and all the others would make him more money but the cheapest was best for me. His price was fair and he did a great job.

He is able to assess clients wants and translate this information into a successful plan to solve their needs. He is very proficient in the use, and application of trusts, limited partnerships and wealth transfer strategies. I feel helping people protect their assets for themselves and their family is his primary concern. My family and I go to him when we want things done right.

Kevin assisted us with the resolution of a claim against a particularly difficult party who insisted on appealing multiple rulings against them. What should have been settled by reasonable business people or a single hearing about the facts of the case, the defendant and his attorney insisted on using every means possible to delay and draw out the process. Although this wasn't a huge claim, the issue was based on fraudulent billing by the defendant and we wanted to see it through the entire process on a moral basis. Kevin did a great job getting the defendant to court and making our side of the case clear. We prevailed and Kevin also assisted in collecting the judgement after the defendant began stalling after the judgement was rendered. I highly recommend Kevin for your business law concerns!

My neighbor was claiming ownership of a large piece of my property and had built a fence on it. Kevin Best review the claim with county property records and agree that I had ownership of the property. He review my property rights with me and suggest a plan of action to remove the fence and on keeping her from excising ownership of it. The plan was successful and the encroach fence was removed. Currently she is staying off the property. Kevin was more then helpful when the Home Ownership Association question the fence removal. His knowledge of HOA convention rules were very helpful in responding to the Community Association. I would hire Kevin again.

My experience with the Law Office of Kevin J. Best has been a very positive one and I plan on maintaining a professional relationship with this attorney. I had been handling my particular case myself only to have it appealed (by the person suing me) twice and moved to different courts. The person has now filed their third and final appeal (allowed) with the court of appeals. I found myself in a situation where legal representation was a must. I had ten days to respond in writing to the writ of certiorari for the court of appeals. I needed an attorney-fast! I googled attorneys and found Kevin J. Best, located in Annapolis. I was pleasantly surprised when Mr. Best personally answered the phone. I was immediately able to discuss my very complicated/time sensitive situation. I scheduled an immediate office appointment (2 hours) and fees were discussed during our phone conversation so there were no surprises. I felt Mr. Best was very reasonable. During the office visit Mr. Best very clearly explained and advised me with examples on how to respond to the writ of certiorari. Since I already had a rough draft of a response and Mr. Best was not familiar with the case to date he advised me to follow through myself to keep the cost down. I worked on my response at home-emailed it to Mr. Best the next day. Within hours he revised it and put it into legal format and emailed it back to me all prepared and ready to mail to the court. This was above and beyond my expectations. All I had left to do was print, make copies and certify mail it to the court. I made the court deadline with days to spare and I filed the paperwork appropriately as required by this court's rules and guidelines- which I had no idea about. All with the help of my new attorney- Kevin J. Best. If needed Mr. Best will represent me at the court of appeals.

She handled my case with ease, where you felt as if she were saying "Don't worry, I got this!" and meant it. She had excellent communication with me and followed up with each aspect of my situation since day one to make sure she would produce a positive and fruitful outcome.

Since I failed to report it in I received a letter from the the Board of Nursing wanting to mediate or legal action was going to be taken towards my license. I then hired Elizabeth about my issue and she spoke to the Board of Nursing and got the case to be dismissed by not having them file a complaint towards me and my license.

Having already gone through the divorce process with a different lawyer I was left feeling taken advantaged of, underrepresented, just a dollar sign, and had a distrust in lawyers in general. Knowing that I would need representation again in the future related to custody issues I needed to find another attorney. I remembered an attorney that spoke at Second Saturday, an informational workshop for women dealing with divorce. Colline was the lawyer that spoke about the legal issues related to divorce and her passion and expertise struck me then enough for me to remembered her years later. I felt understood and safe with Colline and this was so no easy task because of my prior experience with attorneys. She took the time to understand my case and situation more than anyone had done previously. She not only has impressive knowledge with family court and custody she also understands and is sensitive to the personal aspect of your case. Colline knew when to give me straight facts, that at times was challenging to hear and also when to be empathize with me as person and mother. Her abilities to represent me in the court room were just as impressive as some of her other qualities already mentioned. She was prepared and organized with all the details of my case but what I valued even more was her passion to make sure my daughters and I had the best chance at a life without consent fear. My case was not a simple and I was consistently amazed at her drive to represent me in the best way possible. Colline was able to overcome what seemed like impossible barriers that allowed me to have the best outcome with my custody arrangement. Having Colline on my side was the only thing that allowed me to not break during the most stressful time in my life. For this reason alone I recommend her to anyone that wants an attorney that will always put forth extreme effort, has impressive knowledge and judgement with the law, and cares deeply about you as a person. You will never feel like a dollar sign when Colline is your attorney.

Further, she stayed very real and very transparent with me the whole while through. Her upfront and engaging personality gave me confidence that she was representing me in the right way.

After being recommended to me by a friend, I hired Gabriella for my case. From the first meeting, I felt like I had a great connection with her and that she was well versed in the area I was arrested for. She encouraged me to meet with other attorneys as well to make sure I got a group of perspectives before deciding (which I respected). After choosing her she was fantastic about letting me decide how much communication we had, and did a great job of keeping me in the loop about the entire process. She'd remind of all things I needed to attend, what to expect, and realistic timeframes for when things would happen. In the end, I was extremely pleased with the outcome she achieved in my case. Obviously I would have preferred not getting myself in this situation, but am extremely thankful I went with Gabi as both the process and the outcome went as well as they could have.

Watching her in action in the court room is amazing. It was like watching a beautiful piece of art get created in fast forward. I couldn't recommend her higher, she has mastered the art of defending those who can't defend themselves.

We had the task of selling a facility with an existing air permit in Minnesota that we had constructed and intermittently run for one year. The buyer had one of the nation's largest in-house environmental teams and dedicated their team as well as prominent environmental lawyers to this asset purchase. We hired Joe to be our leader on all environmental issues because of his reputation and history of working with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. During the three month due diligence process, the issues expanded from the air permit to EPA issues and Joe led all of our negotiations with the buyer's team. We had a successful transaction outcome due, in large part, to Joe's knowledge and communications and negotiating skills.

I highly recommend John Shoemaker for every aspect of Real Estate Law. I have had the opportunity to work closely with him as he fought for my landlords' and my tenants' civil rights, property rights and economic rights. I have witnessed his "full court press style" of fighting for people all the way to the United States Supreme Court. The decisions that he has obtained  have singlehandedly changed the landscape of housing rights and preserved for every one in every socio-economic class the ability to rise up and survive economically going forward.  After working with dozens of attornies I can't think of another one who is as quick on his feet, as passionate or as skilled as Mr. Shoemaker. I've also never encountered one who has the guts and perseverance to fight the good fight all the way to the top for all of us.  Mr. Shoemaker isn't fighting for a big retainer or a one time profit, he's fighting for justice for all of us and for his client to gain economic compensation for being damaged. He has been my first call for help for almost a decade and he will remain my first call for help and my first referral for those who need help. If you have been damaged if your rights have been disregarded or you want to blow the whistle, you could not have a better Advocate to help make you whole again.

Through the years, I have worked and been friends with numerous attorneys who are considered excellent by their own peers....including Harvard Law, major Wall St firms and Europe in many facets of the practice. Further, my father was in the judiciary and I think I have a pretty good understanding of what it takes to be exceptional. If someone asks me who my attorney is (although I use several for various specialties,) I say Theresa. T has gone above and beyond so many times for friends and myself. If I chose one special quality in addition to her utter competency and professionalism it is TRUST. I have known T's family since I was a child and law is in their blood. Just good people. We have all heard the nefarious remarks about attorney's and their kinship to sharks. T couldn't be farther from this stigma. I sat with Theresa this week to discuss some business matters and it was more like having coffee with a friend. No rush. I have walked courthouses with Theresa, and, it is obvious she is well known and well respected by the many walking the halls. And, the bonus is Autumn and Jen are the best! I noted the comments by the person (since disproven) which said she did not return calls, etc. Hello? Have you ever worked with an atty before? An atty does not call back unless they have something to tell you. Think about it.....legal wheels turn slow...it saves you billing for wasted phone time . A unique thing with T's staff is they are "up-to-speed" at all times....I can't tell you how many times I have called with a question and they dealt with it in a 30-second call. You won't get that with most attorneys. The office is run like a family....just what you want when dealing with nerve-wracking issues. Professional, classy, thorough....pals. Recommended unequivocally.

Harry saved the day! I initiated what I thought would be a simple commercial property transaction and quickly realized that I needed legal representation. The other parties were not cooperative and my best interest was not a priority. Based on a recommendation, I reached out to Harry late afternoon on a Friday and Harry returned the call Friday evening. Harry is brilliant and knows exactly how to strategically handle resistance. My only regret is that I did not hire Harry before executing the Agreement of Sale. If you need a real estate attorney or litigator, I highly recommend Harry. Harry is hands down one of the BEST!

We hired Mr. Cook for what we thought would be a small case. Unfortunately it did not turn out that way. The case involved an educational institution and we are thankful for Mr. Cook’s knowledge, assertiveness when necessary, and calm demeanor when necessary. He was also very kind and thoughtful to our family during this extremely stressful process. I don’t know what we would have done with out his level of expertise in the area of IEP‘s and making the educational institution accountable for their actions. We are Very thankful to him for his countless hours of hard work, his high level of expertise to guide us through this very trying time. I would highly recommend Mr. Cook. With out his level of expertise, Cunning approach and calm demeanor we would not have had the positive outcome that we did obtain from the educational institution.

Mr. Ray will give you the best advice for your situation. It may not be what you want to hear, but Mr. Ray will not sugar coat anything just to get you to be his client then learn about your case on your dime. Integrity is a trait that I value greatly when it comes to human interactions. Our innate behavior tends to make us want to trust people when we are in need of help. Mr. Ray fully understands this and will tell you honestly he is not the attorney for your case if there is a more suitable match elsewhere. Mr. Ray is also very attentive to respond to phone calls and e-mails, which is important when minutes seem like hours when you are in that situation. If you are looking for an attorney with integrity and professionalism, Jason Ray will not disappoint.

Mr. Blankenship was worth every penny I paid. Polk County was trying to unfairly make an example of my 15yo. Mr. Blankenship really showed up in the courtroom. He was not afraid to stand up for him and get him a fair deal. He got all his charges dropped! I am so grateful for his knowledge of the Polk justice system and his years of experience. He came highly recommended by two former clients and did not disappoint. Thank you so much.

Even though it wasn't a big claim in light of what I'm sure they normally handle, they took the time to walk me through the process and had great insight that resulted in a much better settlement than I could have achieved alone. They're knowledgeable, quick to respond, and truly care about your issues, big and small. Can't recommend them enough!

I walked into Anthony's office after my first real experience with the appalling privatized American justice system. I was confused, horribly wronged and overall felt very little hope past that of acquiring the services of a good lawyer. Anthony and Lisa were so understanding and Tony's confidence made me feel more secure of the situation right off the bat and he told me to "sit back and wait for the magic to happen ". Which it did as best as anyone could hope in navigating these type of waters and now that the dust is settling I want to extend my utmost gratitude for Mr.Bussa and his firm, had it not been for them I would have surely just been fed to the lions. In a nutshell him saving me from these wrongful accusations has allowed me to remain unscathed from the beast of the American justice system and soon be back to life,except for some mental trauma. If you might need a lawyer you probably do, and doubtful you'd find any of a better caliber.

Title: “Unethical, Unprofessional, and Part of a Systemic Problem – Avoid at All Costs” Review: I trusted Charles Johnson to represent me in a critical legal matter involving my rights as a parent and the safety of my child. Instead, I encountered unethical conduct and a lack of professionalism that I believe reflects broader systemic issues within the legal community. 1. Failure to Follow Instructions: Mr. Johnson refused to file motions that were critical to my case, despite explicit requests and legal urgency. Instead, he pursued strategies I advised against, which I believe were contrary to my best interests and to those of my child. 2. Broken Promise for Refund: After withdrawing from my case, Mr. Johnson explicitly promised in writing to refund my retainer. However, he later reversed that promise without justification. 3. Neglect of the Best Interests of My Child: Mr. Johnson’s inaction and disregard for my instructions directly contributed to delays and worsened the legal situation for my child. His failure to address critical legal violations has exacerbated the harm my child has endured. 4. Part of a Larger Problem: I believe Mr. Johnson’s actions align with systemic issues of unethical behavior within the local legal system. His failure to prioritize the law and his client’s needs reflects a disregard for justice and ethical standards. It is my opinion that his conduct perpetuates the very systemic rot that undermines trust in the courts and legal professionals. 5. Unprofessional Communication: Mr. Johnson and his staff failed to communicate adequately, delayed responses to critical matters, and ignored requests for accountability. These failures reflect a lack of professionalism and integrity that no client should have to endure. Conclusion: I believe Mr. Johnson’s actions have caused irreparable harm to my child and my legal case. His refusal to uphold his professional and ethical obligations is unacceptable. Recommendation: I strongly advise against hiring Charles Johnson. In my experience, his actions contribute to systemic issues in the legal community and have caused significant harm to me and my family. Jeremy Oluma

Miss Blevins listened to my situation, as a Wounded Warrior at Walter Reed, analyzed it carefully providing a detailed back brief explaining what previous counsel had omitted and what should have been done during the time line that Social Security requires. Her analysis was spot on. Miss Blevins knowledge of Social Security and its processes was critical to fixing prior counsels’ errors. This knowledge was paramount in her legal brief achieving a complete reversal of SSA’s wrong opinion. Miss Blevins is a Top-Notch attorney who was able to get my case reversed, corrected and resolved in a timely manner.

I fought the VA system for 10 years. When Ron filed for his benefits he didn't doubt the VA, he had no idea the ride I was in for after his death. He lived long enough to receive two expedited denials. Before he died during his last rounds of chemo, he would ask me if we could afford an ice cream cone from McDonalds. This man whom i loved with all my heart knew i counted change for his ice cream. As all who watch their loved one give up their fight. This was my hell. I continued what he had started.

Like many people before me, as soon as I found out I would need legal representation for my case with the VA, I dreaded the idea of dealing with a lawyer. I had never had a satisfying interaction with a lawyer in my life until I spoke with Chris. Over the course of a year he represented me with class and dignity. Neither he or Jennifer Steel ever made feel like a case or a number. They were always friendly and attentive. I always got my questions answered in a timely manner.

Hiring Solomon, Maharaj & Kasimati was the smartest decision I made in my legal federal employment law case. At every stage , Mr. Maharaj kept me informed, explained the lengthly process stages, argued on my behalf through well thought out legal substantive facts and equally as important, treated me like a person that mattered and not a number as many large firms sadly do. Mr. Maharaj worked tirelessly on my case, respectfully going toe to toe with the federal government attorneys and proving himself through his dedication to me as his client. While all cases are different, I would suggest the forward thinking legal arguments and attention to detail Mr Maharaj championed on my behalf, were the determining factors that resulted in the positive outcome of my case. I proudly recommend Mr. Maharaj and could not have asked for a more knowledgeable, hard working defender of my rights.

Mr. Maharaj is focused, diligent and caring in your defense and he will win. You have spent your career building your reputation, Don't let a Federal Agency try to tear it down retaliating against your for following or enforcing the law or Policy. After providing significant testimony in response to several independent and agency investigations, the agency retaliated against me. Dan aggressively countered and filed motions and appeals through various Federal Employment adjudication agencies (EEO, OSC & MSPB) The negotiated settlement agreement Mr. Maharaj arranged was better than expected and the agency had to provide significant compensatory damages as well as future employment references and opportunities.

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.
