I recently had the pleasure of having Gina Pellettieri’s Law Office handle the sale of my house. As often happens in life things do not always go as planned, and we find ourselves going over speed bumps more often not. Fortunately for me, the lady’s at this office handled everything that was thrown at them to get the deal across to finish line. Thank you Manette, Morgan and Gina for your fortitude and professionalism.

Lawyer Jack Novack and his office did an amazing job for our pre-marital agreement. Easy to get a hold of and prompt scheduling are just a couple of reasons a 5 star review is warrwnted. His prices are cut and dry and you are well informed to the services rendered. He listened to my concerns and guided me through the process. Marriage can only end in one of two ways: Death or Divorce. While a pre-marital agreement is not something a couple wants to think about, but it should be viewed as preventing a future costly disagreement. This process should be a mature discussion between your partner and you, so when the lawyer drafts it, there are no surprises. Thank you Mr. Novak and your team. Although I hope to never need to use you detailed and through work, I am glad I was able to get one completed in a timely manner.

I was involved in an accident. I was taken to the hospital by ambulance and my hand required stitches. My car was totaled and I was unable to go to work for several months. We found these lawyers when looking online. Their reviews were very good. Well, we made the right choice and now understand why they had such good reviews. They were there every step of the way and we were always able to speak with them by phone. We were kept abreast of everything that they were doing. They are exceptional at what they do. We are very happy for what they did for us.

These lawyers are truly exceptional. I have used their services on several occasions. I am very happy we decided to hire them to take care of my case. I was in a bad accident, broke my hand and had to undergo multiple surgeries. They definately fought hard to make sure I received a good result. I am very happy with the office. The lawyers and staff were so attentive to my needs. There was no delay and the result was truly excellent. I have already and will always recommend them.

They took care of our estate probate after my husband's accidental death. They helped to recover a lot of money for our family due to his tragic death. We originally had used them for our wills, but when my husband died, they were so helpful and compassionate. They were excellent in how they handled everything and we cannot thank them enough.

Worse lawyer I ever used and being in business I’ve used a lot over 35 years. He bragged about how judges used him because he was their friend and they trusted him to do the right thing , like he was a jury.... that should have sent me running. He spent my money on writing an eight page document about something else which basically said I was a liar in the end my partner not involved in the issue solved the problem. I should have run at the time I was on a time line also in all my life I never , never had a lawyer call me twice with the bill and then come to my home to pick it up like he was desperate for money I think I was so shocked that he called at 9 am and said I’ll be there by 10 am I was stymied by it all . and this guy was only a lawyer 12/13 years I’m sure 18 years doesn’t make a difference.

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.
