My husband and 2 friends were hit by a car while on their motorcycles. They were very fortunate when they were referred to Bryan at Sinus Dramis. Bryan and his staff were very patient and kind and explained the entire litigation process as it moved along. They were always available for questions and assistance, never once acting like it was an inconvenience. Because there were three individuals - all with different insurance companies and all with varying injuries, this, I’m sure, was a difficult case to navigate through. But here we are, almost at the finish line and never once did we question our choice of attorney/firm. Bryan, Bri, Lauren – we cannot thank you enough for your diligence in getting the case in order and having our best interest at heart.

My husband and I contacted Bryan after I was hit by a car last October. He was recommended to us by a friend who had been in a similar accident. From the very beginning Bryan was helpful and transparent. Throughout my months of working with him to receive a settlement he proved not only be a great attorney, but also a good person. He shared advice with me as if I were one of his own children and honestly gave me his opinion instead of just trying to drag things out to get more money. He made a very difficult process go much smoother with his professionalism and expertise. We appreciate him, and Kriss, so much!

We have been very fortunate to have Bryan and the staff at Sinus, Dramis represent us after a major traffic accident. Having never been through a legal process like this before, Bryan was very thorough in letting us know what to expect. He was accessible in answering our calls and emails in a timely manner and continues to offer his advise even after our case has been settled. He is an excellent attorney and I would highly recommend Bryan and the Sinus, Dramis Law Firm.

When our father died the will he left was contested by a family member. With no money for a lawyer my brother and I were forced to go it alone in court. I called Johnny asking for any advise he could give, he went above and beyond! We spoke multiple times and he gave us key insights into the law around our case and how to behave at trial. Without him I don't think we would be near this prepared for our upcoming court date. It is nice to know there are people who do this job because they genuinely want to help others. Johnny Hawkins is one of those people!

There is not enough time for me to thank them and I have not gotten a determination yet, i should say and i still give him 5 stars because he was very kind and compassionate with what i was going through. He worked very hard for me and was very professional but didn't make me feel anxious about the hearing. Lisa was very helpful everytime we spoke.

I filed a Chapter 13 with Charlie in January of 2019. I was young, overwhelmed, and terrified but after my first appointment, I truly felt like things could get better for the first time in years. Charlie is extremely knowledgeable, and very importantly, knows exactly how to explain each step in a way that is easy for anyone to understand. He was very thorough when assessing my situation so we could figure out the absolute best course of action for me to take. Whenever I was there for an appointment, it felt almost like he had nothing else to worry about that day. However long it took to get through what we needed to was how long it took, never felt even a little bit rushed. He is very professional, but one of the absolute most important things to me is that he is also able to maintain a more easy-going demeanor. From almost the first minute I met him, that alone made me feel a huge sense of relief, even without knowing what we were going to come up with as far as my plan. Two years later, I still feel that relief, and it’s absolutely wonderful. Thank you Charlie!!

I called Aaron's office by mistake about four years ago for a domestic violence charge a couple county's away. Let me assure you that it was no mistake! Aaron handled my case extremely well, even though we had very limited time to prepare. Aaron not only found the time to learn my case, but he made sure he was fully prepared to aggressively question the witnesses who testified, which lead to a very good outcome for me. He was always there when I needed him, and he answered my questions and explained everything to me in a way I could understand, which gave me a real sense of security with him in my corner. He got me a very good outcome in that case, and he is still here for me to this day for any advice I need. He’s truly someone that cares. Unfortunately, most Attorneys are not cut from that cloth anymore, but Aaron is. He's definitely the one you want on your team! Thank you Aaron!

I hired Jackie for my divorce and child custody case, and I am so glad that I did. She is the best of the best. From our very first meeting, Jackie was extremely approachable, understanding, compassionate, and so reassuring. My case became extremely difficult and messy and Jackie was always there to guide me and answer any questions I had. She was very responsive to calls and emails. She was extremely knowledgeable, professional, organized, thorough, honest, and always prepared. I trusted her to only communicate when necessary - she didn’t want to waste my time or my money. I felt heard and supported through every step of the process. I felt like she truly cared about the best interests of my child and me and fought to get the best possible outcome for us. I hired Jackie again post judgment for additional child custody issues, and again, she did not disappoint. Jackie is simply a rockstar. She went above and beyond both times that I needed her, and I will forever be grateful for the huge role she played during such a difficult and challenging time of my life. I truly feel as if I could not have gotten through my divorce and child custody case, and received the outcome that I did, without Jackie by my side. Not only is she an amazing attorney, but she’s a wonderful person. I would highly recommend her to any of my loved ones. I would 1,000% use her again as my attorney in the future if necessary - I honestly wouldn’t want to be represented by anyone but her. Thank you, Jackie!

I cannot express my gratitude enough to the Law Office of Ryan B. Stern! My selling point after calling a few attorneys in the area, is that Ryan not only took the time to patiently listen to the sypnosis of my situation, but actively asked clarifying questions and immediately delivered a winning game plan to my case —and it was! The reason I chose him is because many of my other preliminary attorney phone calls were more interested in discussing fees and costs rather than my case. Ryan was beyond reasonably priced and so heaven-sent for what was otherwise an incredibly stressful time. Thank you, Ryan for being an invaluable legal resource to the members of your community. Incredibly appreciative and thankful for your wealth of knowledge, experience and expertise. I definitely consider myself a lifetime client if and for any future legal needs.

I am very satisfied with the legal help provided by Mr. Puckett. I hired him to help with my divorce when things had started to become messy. He is very knowledgeable and experienced, has a very good sense of how situations are going to play out, and also keeps the human side of things in mind. I came to the initial consultation terrified. I was being falsely accused of abuse, neglect, and domestic violence. I had no idea how any of this worked. As far as I knew, I was going to end up destitute and broken after the divorce. After explaining my situation to Mr. Puckett, he gave me what he thought a likely outcome would be. And he was right. Instead of the nightmare that I thought would play out, I ended up with a fair and equitable settlement with my ex wife. I would recommend Mr. Puckett in a heart beat!

I live in Ohio and was referred to Gary Nitzkin by Joe Frey at Credit Smart Solutions. I am more than pleased with the way my cases has been handled. The paralegals are very professional and my cases were handled with the utmost care. I have several cases with them and two has settled with a nice payout and they are correcting the errors on my reports. At first I was leery that anything would come of these cases but boy was I wrong and I'm glad I was. Kudos to Gary and his entire staff!!! If you have discrepancies on your credit report Michigan Consumer Credit Lawyers can help!

Mr. Nitzkin and his staff helped me with a credit report issue I was having. My inquiries to the reporting agency were met with either stoney silence or cursory replies that did not address the issue I was having. After Mr. Nitzkin took the case, the reporting agency agreed to fix my credit report to make it accurate, paid Mr. Nitzkin's fees, and paid statutory damages to me. My sole goal going into the case was to have my credit report accurately reflect my history so the money damages obtained were a bonus in my mind. I would highly recommend the firm for representation in credit reporting cases. They were responsive and thorough.

New laws in MI allow many felony convictions to be expunged. While you can try to do this yourself, I highly recommend Mr. LaBre to do this process for you. It's well worth me money as it can change your life. He took care of everything for me.

We hired Mr. LaBre for a custody issue and he got the job done! He is very strategic in what he does. Navigating the family court system is stressful, especially for us not living in the same state as our case. Rob proved hearing after hearing that we made the right choice to hire him. If you need an attorney I highly recommend Robert LaBre!!

I retained Adam to pursue a buy back and/or settlement with a manufacturer for my new vehicle. He thoroughly explained the process and after 4-5 months achieved what I thought was a fair outcome. Adam was fantastic to work with and first class all the way.

Adam provided exceptional guidance and support as I dealt with a lemon law case on my vehicle. He provided thorough communication throughout the process, including persistent follow ups from a manufacturer that was dragging their feet. Given his experience in this area of law, it was reassuring to have someone so knowledgeable and experienced in dealing with these types of situations. The bottom line is that you can trust Adam to get the job done.

Outstanding Service with an Excellent Outcome. If you need an Attorney – Adam is your guy. I had an issue with my new vehicle. The OEM was absolutely no help. Even though they have the following statement on their website. “Make XX your first choice when you need help with your XX vehicle - give us the opportunity to earn your trust and maintain your confidence”.. That’s a lie. They gave me every excuse to delay, mislead, told me they would help – That went on for 6 months. It’s all a lie. I was trying to be a nice guy and give them a chance. Don’t waste your time. Get Adam involved, after I got Adam involved things started to move along – It will take time – But the results will be outstanding. Within 6 months after getting Adam involved, we got a very nice settlement. Adam is extremely responsive – The second I would email or call Adam I received Answers.. There was no delay at all. I couldn’t be happier with the results. Thank you, Adam

I am very fortunate to have found Mr. Marchese. I was given an impossible task of finding a lawyer with little time and in a different state than I lived in. When I reached out to the office online at 8pm, I was not expecting an email back that same evening, let alone within 30 minutes. Mr. Marchese personally emailed me about my concerns and agreed to meet with me the next day. One of the things that makes him stand out against other lawyers is his responsiveness and ability to write about case law. I had multiple people tell me how lucky I was to have a lawyer who responded to emails and phone quickly as Mr. Marchese did. This was my first time ever hiring a lawyer, I did not know what to expect. Mr. Marchese is the person you want to hire if you’re looking for a fair and try-hard lawyer. Mr. Marchese knowledge of case law is so vast that our the Judge complimented on his writing. There was absolutely no comparison between his writing and understanding of the law vs. the opposing counsel. Once again, I was very fortunate to have him as my attorney. I found Mr. Marchese to be very understanding, empathetic and honorable. Nobody wants to go through a divorce, custody battle or fight false allegations. I can honestly say that Mr. Marchese tries to see both sides of the coin, which is absolutely necessary in these type of circumstances. Family law, I have learned, is not black and white. The foundation that Mr. Marchese laid for my case will always be greatly appreciated. When you have a lawyer that fights for justice and the truth, like Mr. Marchese practices, in the end...You cannot fail. Thank you for making me feel heard and helping me through this extremely difficult process.

I looked at reviews on Avvo when I needed to find a new lawyer to take over my previous lawyer's subpar job on my case after 6 months. I saw Daniel's reviews and decided to take a chance. I'm glad I did! He did more for me in the 3 months on my case than my previous lawyer, and everything was done via phone and email as I had moved out of state earlier this year. I would recommend Daniel to anyone wanting a great lawyer.

I hired David Kotwicki to advise me on a severance package which had been presented to me by a large corporation and based on my experience in working with Dave, I would highly recommend him for this field of work. In addition to his strong subject knowledge, I also found Dave to be compassionate and understanding in reviewing the topic with me. He was quick to respond and explained the legal terms such that I fully understood the options and decisions that I needed to make.

Ms. Siefker worked with my wife and I to create a family trust, our wills, POA documents and memorial preferences. She is knowledgeable in these areas and provided sound advice to help us personalize our estate plans. Her explanations were clear which allowed us to put our "plan" into the documents. The process is efficient and streamlined. I expect that we will contact Ms. Siefker in the future as we modify our plans.

I recently applied for my green card with him and am very happy I found him. Not only will he guide you through the whole thing and explain what's what, he'll also give you pretty decent estimates of outcomes and their timelines. Keep in mind that this is immigration and nothing's guaranteed, but he definitely knows how to present your case. Thanks to him, my EAD came through pretty fast and I'm very thankful for it. Added bonus, his services are VERY affordable.

My wife and I were recommended Jakub Szlaga from a family friend while we went through the green card application process. We had the usual worries and stresses that go along with immigration. Jakub was patient, diligent, and guided us along through all the paperwork and requirements. In addition to his wealth of knowledge of the inner-workings of the immigration systems, Jakub genuinely cares, and his passion shows. He really was dedicated to helping us and was very patient with our constant questions and worries. We could not have imagined a better person to assist us in this step of our lives. We are very grateful, and my wife is now a green card holder!

  4. What is your approach to handling cases like mine?

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.
