I had never been injured on the job and had NO knowledge about worker's compensation claims. I contacted Mr. Walwyn randomly after an internet search for attorneys in my area and I believe that I hit the jackpot by hiring him. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable, but he and his staff were professional and very polite. They took the time to educate me and kept me informed every step of the way through my entire ordeal. Just knowing he was there for me and truly had my best interests in mind provided me with a great deal of peace during this, otherwise, nerve wracking time. He was successful in obtaining a settlement for me in a short amount of time, and his fee was reasonable. Hopefully I will not need his services again, but if I ever find myself in that situation I know that I will be treated fairly and with respect. I would definitely recommend Mr. Walwyn to anyone in need of an attorney for a worker's compensation claim.

I was not left worrying with nervous tension she listened, check to make sure the point of the matters was resolved if I ever need an Attorney at Law again I'm for sure will consider Wendy Stanfield first with no hesitation.

He sent me a check for $10,000 after representing me in a complicated case.

Mr. Thornbury represented me in a personal injury case. I was injured during a property inspection when a improperly installed attic pulldown ladder failed. It actually fell out of a ceiling with me standing on it. Herbert did a very thorough and professional job. The case was settled without going to trial. I was very satisfied with the outcome. I would highly recommend Mr. Herbert Thornbury. Jim

During the back and forth with the paperwork, Corrin went on vacation, but she got one of her associates to step in for her in case anything came up when she was not available.

We did not end up pursuing our case in court, but were able to reach a settlement with the assistance of Mr. Berke. Ronnie was very knowledgeable about the ins and outs of a case like ours, and was very informative and helpful throughout the entire process of reaching a settlement and considering pursuing our case in court.

Bill was our first call when we discovered a potential problem with our JV partner in a complex transaction. Over the next nine months, he was able to help us evaluate a complete range of strategies, but with a practical focus, consistently keeping our best interests in mind rather than running down rabbit trails or low-probability tactics. In other words, Bill did the minimum effective dose of legal work to prepare us for litigation while pursuing settlement. Bill's advice was excellent, providing true counsel rather than just a series of options. He was able to bring clarity to very complex legal situation, and help move the ball forward through effective communication with the other side. Because of Bill's involvement, we were able to achieve an outstanding result, receiving a full capital recovery while avoiding costly litigation. There is no doubt in our mind that we could not have achieved this result this quickly without Bill's help.

I was going to wait for my bankruptcy to be discharged and closed before leaving a full review - but I saw a 1 star review which, has 100% not been my experience with Mr. Rannick or his office. I understand they may have had a poor experience with his office, but most of the time when people yell about "how awful the lawyer/doctor/mechanic/etc" is - its usually because they've not provided the professionals trying to help them with proper information and when things don't work out, can't claim ownership over that. I mean, there could be truth to their experience - but saying my case has been handled a thousand percent differently so far - I doubt it. My experience so far has been great! The fees for my Chapter 7 case were reasonable and the service has been amazing. Also, Mr. Rannick has great payment plans which are very affordable. Weirdly enough, I was talking to a friend who also declared bankruptcy (years ago) and already had my initial appointment set up. He actually recommended this attorney as well! So as long as my service continues to be great - this review will be accurate. I don't see anything changing on that front, though!

They approached all aspects of my case with professionalism and a thorough knowledge of all pertaining laws and regulations. In addition to the expected services rendered, Mr. Ward and Ms. Tice maintained regular communication with me, returned calls in a timely manner, and addressed me with care and compassion.

After meeting with Josh, he asked me questions about the Van accident and my injuries. He was concerned and took interest in me as a person. I noted within a few minutes by his questions and note taking, he was concerned but I was impressive with him about laws. I found Joshua to be a people person along with being Knowledgeable with his questions and answers. Amanda and Josh are wonderful people whom worked hard to settle my case favorably.

I had a consultation with him and told him my story and what I’ve tried, what work I’ve done, how long I’ve been sick and what conditions I have. Mr. Jackson was very confident from day 1 that he would be able to secure a victory in my case - he didn’t sugarcoat it though. It would take time, hard work and my cooperation with records and information, for me to keep going to all my doctor’s appointments and keep him well up-to-date. I gave my full trust and trusted in the process. Mr. Jackson and his staff kept me up-to-date on every step that came forward, helped me communicate with social security, submitted paperwork on my behalf (where applicable & appropriate or gave me advice if I needed it). The disability process takes time. Mr. Jackson let me know that almost everyone gets denied during their first submission and that happened in my case - I was actually denied twice by letter. Then it went to the hearing process in person with a judge and Mr. Jackson was right there with me every step of the way - I was never alone. That gave me so much peace because I get scared and anxious. I was glad he was in my corner. I had to answer some questions but for the most part, Mr. Jackson handled the judge’s questions. The judge ruled in my favor that day and case was finally won! Mr. Jackson talked to both me and my family (they were allowed to be called in as potential witnesses for the hearing beforehand) both before the hearing started but also after the hearing to answer any and all questions. He really is a kind and remarkable lawyer. He and his staff have never left me hanging or a question unanswered. Any time, both before the case was complete and after, he and his staff have continued to take my phone calls and text messages in a timely manner. I really could not have placed my trust and my case in better hands than Jackson Law Firm, PLLC. Thank you so much for helping me! -Shelley Williford

I needed a lawyer and Lee Davis was highly recommended. I was charged with aggravated assault. Mr. Davis did his best to keep me calm and informed. With his patience and directions, my case was dismissed and expunged 100%. One of the most disturbing incidents in my live was resolved.

Joe was a great attorney to me we had a mess. He went above the call of duty! When my father died he owed a construction company. He came down I had 8 people suing the estate, some family. My father gave his will out a year before he died but they keep quiet. This took years and Joe was the most level headed and intelligent attorney. He is a great attorney!

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:

    Read reviews on legal directories like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to gauge client satisfaction.

    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.

    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.

    Bring a valid ID for verification purposes.
  7. Pen and Notebook:

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.
