Jeff handled every aspect of my injury settlement, allowing me to focus on recovery. I hope I never need his services again but if I did, I wouldn't give it a second thought before contacting Jeff. He is personable, experienced, and incredibly competent. Thank you for all your help, Jeff!

From the moment I hired him, he was dedicated, diligent, and showed unwavering commitment to me and my case. He went above and beyond to ensure that I received the best outcome possible.

I can't say enough in regards to the professionalism, clarity, and positive results with the legal representation that Brooks McArthur and his amazing legal team provided for me. I was personally dealing with a complicated case where the odds seemed stacked against me and left me feeling overwhelmed. The hard work, punctuality, and guidance in which Brooks and his legal team executed in a timely manner on a regular basis was extremely comforting and effective. In the end we were strategically victorious through their team's defense, resources and legal influence. I personally would highly recommend Gravel and Shea's legal services to anyone who needs reliable, honest, and extremely effective representation. I am profoundly grateful to their services and would have genuinely regretted taking other route for representation. They are best of the best! Thankyou!

I was injured in an automobile accident. The insurance company was tossing me up and down. A friend recommended a very “famous” Burlington, VT Attorney to me. I worked with this Attorney and his partner for more than one year and started distrusting them because it appeared they were always protecting the insurance company instead of being sympathetic to my cause. I dumped the famous Attorney and “googled” other trial attorneys in our area. I liked Todd Schlossberg’s description of “Personalized Attention” so I called him. Please note that I am an immigrant with an accent. Todd Schlossberg took up the challenge to handle my case. Todd never discriminated against me! He worked diligently for me, kept me posted at every stage through phone calls and mailings, and when the insurance company wanted to settle for a meager amount, he sued them, took the case all the way through a jury verdict, and got me a fair and just compensation. Todd Schlossberg’s practice is truly client-centered. He is a very knowledgeable and outstanding Attorney, in every sense of the words, and above all, he is a good and sympathetic listener. Todd is someone you can trust! He is arguably the most compassionate Attorney I have ever met! He will work for you (and not for the insurance company.) If you are looking for a dedicated Trial Attorney, Todd Schlossberg is the person to contact. If you are an immigrant or a foreigner injured in an accident, think twice, take my review seriously. You’ll be lucky to have Todd Schlossberg as your Attorney! Thank you, and Kudos Todd. You’re Great!!

I was referred to Todd by a close friend, who is also an attorney. She knew it was important to me that whomever I chose to represent me possess a high moral standard, be understanding and sensitive to my needs, responsive to my many inquiries, honest, trustworthy and compassionate with a healthy sense of humor. Todd is all of those things. He is well-respected by his peers and I understand why. His brilliant attention to detail and ability to reach a speedy but effective compromise made the difference in my case and in recovering my life. I am grateful to have had him in my corner. Thanks Todd!

I was injured on my motorcycle in a hit and run. Offer from my insurance company was completely inappropriate so it was time to lawyer up. Found Todd's ad in the phone book and saw that his web site was very professional. Initial meeting with Todd found him to be genuinely concerned for me as well as confirming that he is a very knowledgeable attorney. Since I had to go after my own insurance company, the statute of limitations in VT is extended to six years. Todd worked tirelessly every step of the way and always kept me informed of events and contacts with the insurance company. The insurance company waited until the absolute end of the statute but Todd was there for me. Todd got me a great settlement and handled the insurance company masterfully. Todd is an absolute professional and extremely knowledgeable. Hopefully I won't have another injury like that, but if I need him, I'm calling Todd.

Kienan was my attorney when I came forward about the sexual abuse that I experienced in graduate school. The perpetrator was a faculty member at a nationally acclaimed university who was also teaching at an elite boarding school. Kienan began working with me at the beginning of the #metoo movement, when the process of exposing abusers felt like largely uncharted territory. I had been in contact with other attorneys who prioritized financial gain over my healing process and even threatened to expose my identity when I wasn’t yet ready. In contrast, Kienan approached my case with the highest levels of professionalism and respect. His strong legal acumen, passion for justice, and regard for my healing process as a survivor made me feel safe and confident in an otherwise intimidating situation. Kienan and I worked together over the course of a year and a half, at the pace I needed to go in order to avoid retraumatization. He was always available to answer my questions and offer support. Further, I was greatly aided by his compassionate understanding of the trauma I had experienced as well as his fierce advocacy for bringing healing to survivors and preventing others from being harmed. I highly recommend Kienan Christianson—he helped me reach a place of healing that I hadn’t imagined possible.

Kienan represented me during a really intense custody disagreement between me and my son's father. A friend of mine who previously worked with Kienan recommended him to me, and I couldn't be more grateful. Kienan was professional, knowledgeable and skillful. Not only is he masterful with his knowledge of the law, his people skills will win over any judge's favor due to his courteousness, graciousness, and humility. My son's father was attempting to win full custody, but thanks to Kienan hard work, attention to detail and experience, I was the one who was granted full custody of my son. On top of Kienan's impressive work ethic, he's simply a pleasure to work with. He was always realnwith me yet respectful. He displayed great deals of empathy for me while I was dealing with this really difficult situation. He was also very respectful of my budget, aware that I was receiving help from family to afford his services, he was transparent with the cost of everything ahead of time and was always willing to discuss the pros and cons with me and my family. I can't express enough appreciation for Kienan, and I would definitely hire Kienan again should I need representation again!

Kienan is passionate, driven and detail oriented. He fights tirelessly for others and works incredibly hard for his clients. In my case, Kienan was an excellent communicator and explained the process as well as the rational behind his advice making a very painful process feel much less exhausting. I have referred friends to Kienan as well who had similar praise to offer. I would highly recommend Attorney Christianson.

Gary acted as our attorney in a stressful child custody proceeding. His knowledge, skill and courtroom presence made a difference in turning the outcome to our favor. He was particularly helpful during the hearings - when he addressed the court, he was clear, concise and convincing in his arguments. All the attorneys involved were outmatched. He set the tone, and his professional approach resulted in turning what could have been a nasty experience into a well-documented custody agreement that was fair to the child and family. I truly believe that without Gary, the outcome would have been a real setback for the child and our family. Gary is an even better person. You want him in your corner.

I'm a single mother with one child and was in a very serious car accident in 2000. I broke my left arm in a way that had to be put back together with plates and screws, And needed two surgeries .I was so scared for myself and my daughter who was two back then, Thinking how am I going to provide for us ? I also had to take in the idea that I might never be able to use my left arm again. I was reffered to Mark Sylvester who since the minute I met him I knew I could trust and rely on him. He was 100% trustworthy, He was knowledgeable,Quick and very thorough in my case. He also had alot of patience considering the emotional mess that accident made me. He stood by my side and guided me through every process of my law suit. I learned alot from him . He became a friend.I was a success in recovery and now I'm a Massage Therapist ! He will now and always be my lawyer and I highly recommend him.

I was accused of making a false phone call to 911. Williston Police tried to charge me with making the phone call, and causing a "public safety hazard". They were seeking a written apology (most likely to be published in the paper) and a $1000 fine to cover "Fire Department" coasts. My father is an NYC firefighter - and that wasn't happening. Ian did not hesitate when I told him to tell the Fire and Police Departments to pound sand, and I would NOT be writing a check for $0.01. I was ready to take it to court, but because of Ian, the Fire Department and Williston PD folded, and the charges were dropped. As Ian will admit, he is not the "least expensive" attorney in Burlington - however, I'd rather be the one with the gun at the knife fight. Right? So, thank you to Ian, for handling my situation quickly, quietly and getting my desired outcome. I will recommend Ian given the chance; and although I hope to never need his assistance again, I wouldn't hesitate to hire him or his firm.

I have had the pleasure to work with Andy Montroll for over two decades! He has provided our software and telecom divisions with sound advice, consistently and promptly, when under a time crunch. I appreciate his ability to provide counsel on the specific legal nuances, but also the understanding of business and commerical term considerations. He also is fluent in "layman-speak" for those of us who are more on the business side, but need an understanding and interpretation of legal terms. Having a trusted legal advisor like this is invaluable.

I have worked with Andy for about two decades, with him supporting our company's needs with respect to our customer contracts across two different business divisions - both of which are subscription based models. One business unit is encumbered with a heavy amount of regulatory and privacy complexities (as an FCC regulated entity), and the other is a software company with a different set of complexities, particulary in its service to heavily regulated financial sector clients. Andy is a true pleasure to work with - he is responsive, thorough and able to consider our key business concerns during negotiations. We have repeatedly entrusted Andy to represent our legal requests on existing and prospective client calls. His support has been instrumental in helping us to secure new business (even in cases where at the onset the requested contract changes looked insurmountable). I appreciate Andy's skills, alongside his pleasant demeanor and ability to translate legal nuances into an understandable business consideration standpoint.

Speaking on the phone was professional but, when I went through the retainer they sent me it was nuts. It’s a one sided retainer which puts your money in a escrow account which they won’t draw from, problem is, they also have a clause that gives the firm a raise if they choose, in pay and if you disagree they can take the retainer and there released for what you hired them for in the first place. Beware bad agreements unless you want to shovel the funds over at the firms whim. I own a company and have been dealing with lawyers for 40 years and I have never seen anything like this in my life time. They have total control once they’re hired be careful.

I was in a rare situation where I had 2 car accidents ( I was not at fault for ) 4 months apart from each other. I suffered many bodily injuries from these back to back car accidents. I originally went through a different law firm. They found my case to be difficult and with a change in their office they told me they could no longer assist me. This left me overwhelmed and stressed as I struggled to find another law firm before reaching my statue of limitations for my case. After many calls and research I came across Brady and Donhue law firm. John Brady and his assistant Kerri took my case and made my very complicated case seem quite easy with the amount of expierence and knowledge they have. Had amazing communication through out the entire process. Anwsered and and all questions I had. Always had my best interest and would go into detail about pros and cons of the situation at hand before I made any decisions. Listened to my concerns. They really went above and beyond. They were very timely,organized in sending me documents and professional. An added bonus is I got more out of my settlement then expected thanks to their knowledge and commitment. I would recommend them to anyone.

Samone Washington was put on my case against DCF targeting and discriminated me and walked me through a TPR with office of public defender's working with DCF against me. I completed 4 case plans for her to not present anything I have completed for evidence on my behalf. Be careful of this I have been told by another professional lawyer that what was done to me was premeditated and done purposely for me to lose my children. Take care of your family from this corruption do whatever you need to do to show your evidence no matter what they say. Believe me all my evidence she said would hurt my case don't believe it show your evidence and witnesses if not write a letter to the court on how your lawyer doesn't represent you properly.

You want Jessica and her team on your side. Jessica personally handled my case every step of the way. She went above and beyond for me and really helped me through one of the hardest times of my life. She was there for me whenever I needed her, even if it was after hours. She truly does this because she loves what she does. I would highly recommend using this firm !

I recently had hired the firm of Jason Sawyer to help me get some past offences expunged. Not only were they extremely sympatric and kind, but they were very affordable. The results were better than I expected. I would highly recommend them.

I don’t recommend this firm because I called a few times and never received a call back. Vermont lawyers are pretty terrible. This has been my experience with VT lawyers across the state.

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:

    Understand the fee structure, including hourly rates, flat fees, retainer fees, and any additional expenses.

    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.
