I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional legal services provided by Steve Goldman, a top-notch criminal defense lawyer in New York City. Mr. Goldman represented me in a gun and drug charge case, and his professionalism, expertise, and unwavering support were evident throughout the entire process. From our first meeting, I was scared, nervous, and in distress , I thought my life was over. It was clear that Mr. Goldman is a highly skilled and knowledgeable attorney. He approached my case with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that every aspect was thoroughly examined and addressed. His deep understanding of the law and strategic thinking were instrumental in building a strong defense. One of the most remarkable qualities of Mr. Goldman is his ability to instill hope and confidence in his clients. Despite the gravity of my situation, he consistently uplifted my spirits and reassured me that we would get through this together. His optimism and encouragement were invaluable during one of the most challenging times of my life. He truly is a pitbull when he walks into that room. I have mad respect for him, and I'll never forget what that man has done for me. Mr. Goldman is not just an excellent lawyer; he is a true advocate for his clients. He fought tirelessly on my behalf, demonstrating a level of dedication and determination that is rare to find. Walking into the courtroom, he was always prepared for a hard fight, going the extra mile to ensure that everything was on point. His tenacity and commitment ultimately led to the dismissal of my charges, giving me a second chance at life. I also want to commend Mr. Goldman's front office receptionist, who was a delight to work with. She was kind, humble, and informative, making the entire experience even more positive. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Steve Goldman to anyone in need of a criminal defense attorney. He is, without a doubt, the smartest and most skillful lawyer you will find in New York City. Hiring Mr. Goldman was one of the best decisions I ever made, and I am eternally grateful for the second chance he gave me. Thank you, Mr. Goldman, for not only saving my life but also saving my family from heartbreak. I PROMISE you your money will be worth it hiring Mr. Goldman as your attorney. If you have him at your corner, just know your gonna be set. God bless you! and THANK YOU AGAIN!

I don’t have enough words to express how grateful I am for Ms. Ramonita Cordero. This was my first time going through a divorce. She made the process painless. She was efficient, compassionate, and made sure to look out for my best interest. Prior to me contacting Ms. Cordero, I heard all kinds of nightmare scenarios when it came to the divorce proceedings. I was concerned about my son, property I owned with ex wife, child support, etc. Ms. Cordero was able to resolve all of my concerns without creating extra stress for me. She made sure that I was treated fairly. Her fee was extremely reasonable and even worked with me when I was not able to make timely payments. She made it so easy for me that I might be looking forward to my next divorce. I recommend Ms. Cordero, especially to all those men that want to be treated fairly by a system that is usually one sided. Thank You Ramonita

The estate planning and living will for me was handled exceedingly effectively by Mr. Morgan, who went above and beyond my expectations. I am extremely grateful to that individual. At this exact time, I am at peace because I am aware that my loved ones will not be forced to speculate about my desires or go through the challenging process of going through the probate court. Utilizing his services is something that I strongly encourage you to do.

I became acquainted with Robert Laureano around 2006 when I would referred to him by a friend to represent me in a custody case. Robert worked diligently on my case to prevent my daughter's mother from violating my paternal rights and relocating with my child without my approval. Due to his hard work, we prevailed in the trial. I also retained Robert for my child support hearings where he negotiated directly with my daughter's mother and saved me from the major "bite" that she was intending on putting on me. I am so thankful to him for that. Just recently, I have just had a felony assault charge dismissed. During the 18 months of back and forth court traveling, Robert always kept me well informed and never let me guess about where I stood in terms of his strategies to have the charges dismissed entirely. In the 12+ years that I have been working with Robert Laureano, I have always walked out of court extremely satisfied with his performance with handling my cases and will continue to retain his services for ANY type of legal assistance that I may need.

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.
