I needed advice on a matter regarding an employee contact / non-compete contract a new employer was asking me to sign. I found Mr. Zabell to be informative and unbiased. The insight he provided was very germane to the situation. I would not hesitate to reach out to Mr Zabell again for employment contract advice.

Dedicated, extremely professional and hard working, understanding, & incredibly helpful.... If you're in need or just find yourself browsing around for a lawyer thinking of your options, stop here and give them a call. I highly recommend Mazzara & Small. They will be there to help you from the get go. Nothing but great things to say about this firm & its staff. Exceeded my expectations, they go above and beyond, stay in touch with you (clear and consistent communication), and give you the best counsel and information. Thank you Kathy, Kelly, Janis, and everyone involved on my case, I truly appreciate you and all that you do.

I wish I could give negative stars, Greg Caggiano is the most unprofessional lawyer on the planet! Poor Amanda who was nothing, but professional had to hear this man berate me on speaker phone while My 15 year old child heard the entire thing. I feel bad for his staff, and now I know why they have such a high turn over of paralegals. Greg you got my number call me like a man, and let me get a word in. Almost two years, and countless different paralegals that were always kind to me. I was advised to leave that firm. Update he called me claiming I use my autistic child as an excuse for everything. Deny that Greg.

He represented me in a divorce case, he is not truthful and will leave your case in the middle of the process if he is friends with the opposing attorney (switch hitter), then he will get other attorneys to go after your money in the bank stating you owe his firm money after he left your case. I am presently filing a law suit against this levy he had placed on my account. He ask the judge to be removed from my case without informing me, can you imagine the shock in court in front of the judge, my lawyer is stating he wants to be removed from my case, I am paying you and you couldn’t afford your client the courtesy to left him know, Is this what you want in your attorney. He’s very expensive and not worth the money. I went with Micheal Albi law firm and was able to come to an agreement with my X wife within two months of obtaining there services.

Peter was always very professional and available to answer my questions. He always showed up on time for court and kept me informed. His assistant, Talia, was also very professional and helpful with any issues I had. I felt like Peter was giving me the best advice for my situation and wasn't just out to get more money from me. He was also great at dealing my very difficult ex. I highly recommend Peter Mandi for anyone who is going through a divorce.

I had a friend who used this guy as an attorney and I would recommend that you find another attorney. He seems to know a lot of people in the courts, but he works against you, not for you. He seems like the type of attorney that would sell you out for a cup of coffee. He comes in unprepared and does not defend you. He is always very nervous in front of the judge. If you are a law student, this guy should encourage you. If he can do it, anyone can.

William Grausso represented us at the closing of our house in February. Right before we walked into the office he said that the buyers insisted that we sign a paper saying that we would pay them $5000.00 for cleaning expenses if the house was not clean when they moved in, they would not lower the price. Our house was packed, the movers had left, we had no choice but to sign. Before we even got home to, a contractor had already torn out a downstairs bedroom wall. We had the house spotless when we were done and before we left, the house was a complete disaster after the buyers people came in. They even asked us to pay $700.00 for a new mailbox. Since then Mr. Grausso and his associates have refused to return our phone calls. As we are out of state now we cannot stop by his offices. I don't know if we will ever see our $5000.00. So I DO NOT RECOMMEND

Absolutely awful attorney. While he tries to sound professional on the surface with his verbose language, he comes off as very rude, unprofessional, and condescending. Not an honest person. Did not seem to care about my case or want to fight for it. Made it seem like our time speaking was a waste of his time. Rudest person I have ever been in contact with.

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.
