I'm sorry to say that, even though I was married in the Catholic Church, my wife divorced me in March of this year, 2019. It was traumatic of course but Sharon Lieblich not only did a great job as a lawyer, but as a human being. I truly grew to love her. She was recommended by my family's lawyer in NYC, and though she was more expensive than other lawyers in Virginia, she probably saved me half a million bucks. You can't beat Harvard lawyers!

Sharon is an extremely experienced attorney with an excellent background for over decades. Using an attorney is extremely expensive and I've been happy with the ways she's tried to help cut the bill without giving up any rights. I just wish my STBX's attorney had the same approach.

My Son was injured by a negligent care giver back in Dec/2007. My son grew up with special needs. Even tho he had special needs, my son was a very happy person, & he enjoyed his life. On Dec.2,2007 my son's life changed for the worse. He was in the hands of a care giver who was suppose to be caring for him on that day. This care giver was suppose to be at my son's home, Instead, this woman took my son to her home to be with her boyfriend, there he ended up with a spinal cord injury & this injury took all my son's abilities away from him. My son can no longer walk, feed hiself, & he is now total care. But most of all my sons Joy is gone. He is no longer that happy person who once walked around clapping his hands & humming. But thanks to Dino Colombo who represented my son in this law suit & fought for my son to get a fair settlement. My son will never have to sacrifice for the things he needs for the rest of his life. He has purchased a van equipped for a wheel chair, A home with 17 acres of land in a rural area, top of the line hospital bed, & any equiptment he needs. He also goes on vacations & takes week end trips if he desires to do so. I can remember the winter this law suit was taking place, & it was a snowy winter. it seemed like every time a deposition was scheduled a snow storm would come up.But the snow storms didn't stop Dino Colombo, he was always there.Dino always kept me informed about the case & everything that was going on with the case. He called me numerous times during the law suit, & he always made sure I understood everything. Dino Colombo wasn't just a Lawyer he was our friend & he still remains our friend to this day. If it wasn't for Dino Colombo my son wouldn't have the things today that he needs to make his life better because of these injuries. There would be no wheelchair van, no home to accomudate his wheelchair & his bed would be a medicade hospital bed which isn't too good & very uncomfortable. But Because Of Dino Colombo my son has everything he needs to make his life better for him. No, the money can't replace what happened to my son or put him back the way he once was. But it can help his life be a little bit better & he can have the equiptment, etc he needs now because of these injuries. Even tho my son has adjusted to his injuries & can now smile again, he will never be like his old self. We use to do alot of things togeather him, & I.... And I really miss that. I will always be grateful to Dino Colombo for his hard work & dedication to this lawsuit. Without Dino Colombo's help my son's life would not be what it is today. I WOULD recommend Dino Colombo to anyone who is seeking a good Attorney to fight for you & get you the settlement you deserve. Dino will stand by you, & he will do everything he possibly can to get the job done. Without the help of Dino Colombo my sons life would not be what it is today. I will always be grateful to Dino Colombo.

Dino Colombo sat down with me, explained everything in detail, and gave me the information I needed to feel comfortable about my case. I was really scared after being hurt in a car accident and didn't know if I should believe what the insurance company was telling me. Dino took the time to make me comfortable with the process and secured a favorable result. Highly recommended.

I suffered a serious and debilitating injury several years ago when I was hit by a drunk driver. When it came time to hire a lawyer I wanted an experienced trial lawyer with a well earned reputation, and quickly found that Dino Colombo was the "go to" guy in personal injury law. Having experience in the legal industry over 40 years myself, I recognize a good lawyer when I meet one. They don't come any better than Dino Colombo.

I hired Attorney Jase Allen to prepare a revocable trust for my estate in August of 2016. He responded in a timely fashion with home visits throughout the two week process. Over the course of those two weeks, I continued to give Jase changes and updates through many emails until I felt the details in the trust accurately described my wishes for asset distribution. He was very patient and responsive to my requests for these changes and updates. Additionally, I found Jase to be very knowledgeable, personable, congenial, cooperative, and willing to go the extra mile to assure my wishes for distribution of trust assets were accurately described to meet my satisfaction. I therefore give Jase the full five star rating.

I had the opportunity to hire Mr. Beard on two separate occasions. One was a career ending injury from commercial crab fishing in Alaska. Back at the end of 2003. He worked tirelessly on this lawsuit until the end. Which took almost two full years to settle. He kept in contact and informed on every issue of this case. With vary favorable results for me. Then in 2012 I was given the chance to try a return to the commercial fisheries. All was going good for the first few seasons. Then on Halloween night. A crew member lost control of a crab pot. Striking me in the head. Leaving me with a severe head injury. After receiving zero help for my injuries from the vessels owners. I had no choice but to again seek out Mr. Beard for his help. Without hesitation, he was helping me. Instantly things changed. My doctors started actually helping me. Bills started to get paid. And the owners of the boat finally admitted that I was hurt on the boat. Since they wouldn't acknowledge this before Mr. Beard stepped into help. When he did, things happened fast. My head injury left me with a TBI which was severe. Which led to many medications and bad side effects. In the end. Because of all of this. I tried to take my life. Mr. Beard stood by my side. Still doing everything possible for me and my family, to get through this horrific ordeal. Which thankfully I did. He never gave up on me. When many others had. This may have been possibly one of the most difficult cases he may have ever faced. In my opinion, I'm sure it was. Since the TBI, suicide attempt, coma and very long hospital stay. And the many issues involved in any lawsuit. After about three years of his relentless work he put in for me. He secured me a favorable settlement, that will let me live my life, as I had before these horrific injuries. He will work non-stop. Without exception for you. He will tell you straight, the pros, cons and risks of the lawsuit. Mr Beard, in my opinion. Is one of the most knowledgeable, best versed attorney in the maritime field. In the end, he is one of the best. I wouldn't want anyone else representing me, when my whole future is at stake.

Mr. Albiston and his office staff were an anchor for our family during a tumultuous time after our son was hit by a drunk driver. He impressed us with much understanding of the head injury, read a ream of medical reports, aided the whole family in our shock of the situation and was amazingly creative with detailed negotiations on a very complicated case. He covered every detail and then some. He worked tirelessly for us and advised us like our son was his son. We can't thank him enough.

When my husband was injured in the line of duty the nature of some of his injuries was not readily apparent. As we awaited the final diagnosis of his condition, we needed help and advice. Several legal firms advised us to wait until we had more information before they would assist us. This was not the case with George Albiston. Without his help my husband and I would have been lost in medical and legal paperwork. George and his staff were always available to answer our questions and provide support and advice. It was comforting to know that George had experience working with injured clients, and his manner was always kind, reassuring and confidant. I have recommended George to several friends, and will continue to do so. George has integrity, compassion and keen intelligence.

He has an experience Social Security person that worked for Social Security for years and now he works for Mike Lewis and with all the great advice I had my Disability in three months ...I would not trust anyone else to hold my hand thru all this ordeal. He not only a Attorney He's your friends and his christian ways and his staff are excellent ....I m telling you Hire Mike Lewis you got a friend as well as an attorney.....Very down to earth and he does not rush your visits he there for you. It was like God sent me to Mike Lewis I needed a christian friend that is an attorney. Instead getting the run around another Attorney is High Point. I never met the attorney at the place in HP nor did I get a one on one experience like Mike Lewis;s office offers. I will always be obligated to them. JS

Lance Garner is an amazing attorney. There is not enough word that I can put to be very grateful for his help. I had a big car accident in June 2018; I almost lost my life because of a careless driver that crushed my car to rush to the gas station. I suffered a lot from this accident, been through so many medications and treatment, mentally so stress, and financially been rough. With so many going on in my life, I didn’t have any more power and energy to deal with the person and insurance that responsible for all of these. (This case is almost 3 years; you can imagine how frustrated I am) I pray to God, and I really thank God that he sent me the best lawyer to handle my case. Lance Garner worked so hard to handle my case and kept fighting diligently. He is very professional, honest, no sugar coating, helpful, and smart. The most important is that he is someone that I can trust and respect. He worked beyond my expectations; he solved my case quickly and got the best settlement for my right. Finally, I can breathe freely, been suffocated by this case for almost 3 years. I couldn’t thank enough for Lance Garner. I would highly recommend him to any who needs an amazing remarkable attorney.

I had the good fortune of meeting Ann Jones when I was trying to navigate the difficult and unnerving issues of filing a claim for admission in to the Virginia Birth-Related Neurological Injury Program. Initially she would not accept my son's case but did so after determining that even though it would be the most difficult birth injury case she had represented she knew he had in fact suffered a birth injury. Ann is the most knowledgable and hard working attorney I have ever known. The clients she represents are not just clients. As a result of her dedication and hard work my son was awarded benefits and now has the lifelong promise of the medically necessary care he will need.

Saeed advised me that my traffic ticket was a simple expiry of tag and that i should be able to pay the fine without paying thousands to any lawyer. He was more of a physician watching out for the best interest of his client instead of a businessman looking out for the best for himself.

I highly recommend John Schalter for your personal injury needs. My young daughter suffered a traumatic brain injury as a result of an auto accident, and John instantly helped set her up with a spectacular rehab management team to fill her needs throughout the entire process of rehabilitation. He was always caring and professional, quick to respond to any questions I had, and genuinely cared for her well-being, as well as my mine, throughout that difficult and trying time. If he didn't have an answer for me, he quickly went to work to find the best in the business to get me the answers I needed and fought tirelessly for the best possible outcome for my daughter and her future well being. His persistent assistance and guidance through out my case helped us get through a difficult time our lives with compassion and empathy. Rest assured, if you are ever in need of personal injury services, John Schalter will be your right and best choice!

Peter did an excellent job reviewing and handling my case. He was clear and honest regarding the legal climate and chances for a satisfactory outcome in court, in mediation and in general which is very refreshing. He also took the time to walk me through the process so i knew what to expect so I didn't feel lost or intimidated. Even though I hope to never experience another personal injury in the future I would not hesitate to call Peter again if I had to. He would definitely be my first call to make sure I knew my rights.

John Keefe, Jr. is not only a professional's professional, but he is genuinely a nice person with extraordinary communication skills. I am a seasoned litigator and required the services of a knowledgeable and talented personal injury lawyer who was able to handle a matter involving significantly complicated legal issues. After reviewing his professional credentials and personally interviewing Mr. Keefe, I selected him as my attorney and entrusted my case to him for handling. Not only did he resolve the matter in a shorter period of time than we had anticipated, but he did so with the expertise of a craftsman and the skill of an experienced advocate to my total satisfaction. He is the "Gold Standard" of the profession and a friendly, competent and skillful lawyer.

To say that John Dalimonte saved my life is an understatement. I thought that I was completely screwed -- but somehow I was lucky enough to get referred to John. Other lawyers go to John for advice -- why wouldn't you want that lawyer to represent you?? He got me a huge settlement that saved me and my family. To top it off, he's a great guy -- and I never thought I'd say that about a lawyer!

Mark handled our personal injury case with the utmost professionalism and expertise. He is a very warm and caring person who took the time to make sure that we had the necessary support to recover from our injuries. Mark investigated the accident, evaluated medical reports, and negotiated our settlement. Mark's comprehensive and thoughtful approach was key to obtaining a higher than expected amount. Moreover, Mark took away all of the stress and burden associated with personal injury cases. We did not need to deal with other lawyers, insurance companies, or medical groups. We highly recommend Mark.

With so many personal injury lawyers out there, who can you trust? Mark Fong guided us through two horrible incidents that I do not even want to access from my memory. His team is always on top of every detail and he is always available for questions and concerns regarding the case. He was compassionate and empathetic to all our needs and treated us as friends, not clients. Mark also has a top-notch network of Doctors and partners to help your case which was very impressive. I have referred him before and I will continue to do so in the future. His advice, guidance, dilligence, attention to detail, knowledge, experience and his relentless fight for your case is truly unparallelled. Thank You, Mark Fong and your team for everything you have done for our family.

Eric was referred to me in November 2013, and I am very thankful for the recommendation. Eric achieved a result where it seemed no result would be possible. It took 8 years of patience, grind and frustration but the result finally came. Distance proved to be no barrier (other than the time change between East Coast and Australia). Over that 8 years there were long periods when nothing happened, but when it did, Eric kept me up-to-date and informed. My sincerest thanks for the time and effort you put in on my behalf Eric.

On two occasions, Counselor Finamore "saved my chestnuts" from the fire. Both times all he did was to make a phone call - just a phone call. But it was to the right person at the right time. On one occasion, I sent Mr. Finamore a retainer check. He located important information which he conveyed to me quickly and efficiently. Then . . . GET THIS . . . he returned my retainer! He helped me greatly and charged me not a farthing. INTEGRITY. Something missing in parts of America today. It is so refreshing to find a lawyer with great integrity who performs as he is asked. My recommendation: 100%. As they say in Maine, "Finest Kind".

Choosing an attorney can be daunting, however, after selecting Attorney Finamore and witnessing his compassion and perseverance, we did not regret our decision. He was up front from the start about informing us of the lengthy judicial process and parts of the case that would be difficult. He is well versed in the legal system and thought outside the box, which resulted in us receiving compensation from a difficult and unusual case. He was very supportive and went the extra mile until the very end.

I had an ex-girlfriend who was stalking me and making my life miserable. One day, she was banging on my door for hours. When I tried to leave, she chased me in her car and ended up rear ending me. I got out of my car and was trying to pull her keys out of her ignition and some witnesses saw that and called the police. They arrested me for felony domestic violence. I hired attorney Joel Hoffman and he immediately called the court and had it reduced to a misdemeanor. At the hearing, he was able to have the charges further reduced to misdemeanor trespass with minimal fines and no jail time which I was very happy to accept, considering what it could have been. This was a very stressful time for me since I had never been arrested before in my life but Mr. Hoffman really helped me through the whole nerve racking process. His fees were very reasonable as well. I highly recommend Attorney Joel Hoffman.

If I had to recommend an attorney to anyone else--friends, family, or acquaintances--it would be Brian Franciskato. In working with Brian for almost three years, I found him to be the most complete legal representative anyone could ask for. His work was meticulous, his replies and explanations were immediate and complete, and his friendly demeanor reinforced his commitment to our lawsuit. We never doubted his determination to succeed or his certainty that he would. Any questions on our part were answered immediately and in detail, with Brian's usual good humor and understanding. We never had occasion to criticize any of his dealings with us or with his goals to resolve our case successfully, which he did. From Day One and my first conversation with Brian, I had complete confidence in his experience, his abilities, and his years of successful representation. And all of this was enhanced by his winning personality and dedication to those he represented. We do not live in Brian's home state of Missouri, but that was never a consideration or a problem for him, or for us. He was even a guest in our home in our introductory meeting. Despite the usual pitfalls over the time frame of the case, Brian never faltered or foresaw a failure. And in the long run, he did as he had promised when he achieved an entirely suitable settlement. When our case closed, it was capped by an exchange of mutual respect and goodwill. If a situation was ever to arise that required legal representation again, I would not settle for any attorney other than Brian Franciskato.

We had never hired or had need of a lawyer before and we were scared. You always hear such negative things about lawyers and their character. We met with Brian and all our fears were gone. He was helpful and thorough and made us feel comfortable right from the start. He is personable and informative and always kept us up to date with everything that was going on. My husband has a very varied work schedule and Brian would always work around it. Sometimes even calling after 9 pm from home. He was always there when we needed him, and never complained that I called too much! He got us a lot more money than we expected and we never even had to go to court!

  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.

    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.

    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.

    If applicable, bring financial documents like pay stubs, tax returns, or bank statements.

    Provide details of any witnesses or other parties relevant to your case.

    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.

    • 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.

      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.

      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.
