Mike did an amazing job representing me and things ended with a very favorable result. He was extremely thorough in explaining how the whole process was going to go and answered every question I had. He answered anytime I called and when he wasn’t available he made sure to call me back the second he had the chance. I hope I don’t need to but if I ever need another attorney, Mike is the first person I will go to.

I have used Mike for multiple closings. Moving is always stressful, but having someone like him to assist you through the process always makes things better. Mike is extremely knowledgeable, empathetic, and always in your corner! While he is affable with his clients, he can be a pitbull with the other lawyers if need be. He and his staff are always on top of everything and their level of communication is second to none. Thank you so much Mike!

Kristin Weberg represented me in what is called a "contentious divorce" for just over a year in 2021-2022. I'm forever grateful to her and her whole team. When I called her that first time, I told her what sounded like an outrageous story. I was in the death throes of an abusive marriage and the deck was squarely stacked against me. She believed me and agreed to represent me. She assisted me navigate an escape from my abuser. When we had to appear in court her professionalism & preparation were unmatched. She successfully petitioned the court to make accommodations so that he couldn't intimidate me. She left no stone unturned. We were successful in completing the divorce with a fair and favorable outcome. Her office as a whole undertook a considerable amount of work on my behalf while at the same time helping to ensure my safety. You can expect to be treated with kindness and dignity. It's so hard to write this because how do you properly explain someone completely going to the line for you in a few sentences? I think the best way to sum it up is this. You want Kristin on your side in the courtroom. If you have the chance to work with her. Run don't walk.

A good attorney typically possesses several key qualities and skills: Expertise and Knowledge: They have a strong understanding of the law and are knowledgeable about the specific area of law they practice, whether it be criminal, civil, corporate, or family law. Strong Communication Skills: Effective lawyers are articulate, both in writing and speaking. They can clearly convey legal concepts to clients and present compelling arguments in court. Analytical Thinking: A good attorney can analyze complex information, identify key issues, and develop strategic approaches to solving legal problems. Integrity and Ethics: They maintain high ethical standards and are honest in their dealings with clients, colleagues, and the court. Advocacy Skills: They effectively represent their clients’ interests, using persuasive arguments and actively advocating for the best possible outcomes. Negotiation Skills: Good attorneys are skilled negotiators who can resolve disputes amicably when possible, often saving their clients time and money. Empathy and Understanding: They exhibit compassion and understanding for their clients’ situations, providing support and guidance throughout the legal process. Attention to Detail: A successful attorney pays close attention to detail, ensuring that all aspects of a case are thoroughly examined and addressed.

Dedication to Clients: A good attorney is committed to their clients, providing personalized attention and ensuring they are kept informed throughout the process. These traits combined contribute to an attorney's effectiveness and their ability to achieve favorable outcomes for their clients. Lissa Mckinney possesses all of these attributes and I strongly recommend her.

Amy gave me same-day counsel in person in the evening! I cannot express how professional and knowledgeable Amy has been during my crisis. Amy, Catherine, and Amanda operated as a team and provided outstanding guidance and direction when I needed it most. They seem to work around the clock and take phone calls and reply to emails very quickly.

Mary was referred to me by a neighbor. Divorce is not something I'd wish upon anyone. It's draining and stressful. With Mary on your side, tensions are lowered dramatically and Mary is excellent at keeping you balanced throughout the long and emotional process. Her work ethic and dedication to her clients' needs are unlike any professional I've ever worked with before. She is incredibly detailed and her knowledge and skills surpass all others. Mary always holds a firm, but courteous position with the opposing party and strives for mutual settlement results. I am fortunate to have her in my corner!

I called Elaine for advice regarding a personal financial situation. Elaine spent a half hour on the phone with me and gave me a lot of very good advice. I am now making a confident decision on how to proceed thanks to her time and wisdom, guided by experience. She did not charge me a dime for her time and was a very patient listener. Grateful!

My husband and I had to file for Chapter 13 Bankruptcy - it was a very difficult and emotional decision. Elaine helped us through the entire procedure and patiently explained how everything worked. Her natural kindness and understanding was evident and helped us feel that we were going to get through this. In the end, everything went very smoothly and we were very pleased with the outcome. We couldn't have asked for a better lawyer. We would recommend Elaine to anyone contemplating bankruptcy - give her a call, she will help you.

Like the plumber with the stopped up sink, I am an attorney who put off having an estate plan done for a decade or more. I finally decided to engage the law firm of Samuel, Sayward & Baler to do my own estate plan, including Wills, Trusts, Homestead, Durable Powers of Attorney, Health Care proxies, etc. I will confess that it takes time and was challenging for me. The law firm was professional, knowledgeable and “user friendly”. They were responsive, diligent and had tremendous follow through. They did outstanding work which was tailored to my family’s needs. Once it was completed, the relief and satisfaction at having my estate planning behind me was enormous. I couldn’t be happier with the estate planning work done by the law firm of Samuel, Sayward & Baler. Do yours sooner rather than later. They understand, they can help, and the peace of mind you will feel afterward is priceless . As a satisfied client, I would recommend this law firm to anyone.

Hugh and Carrie are one of a kind! I met Hugh when I was getting my masters at Northeastern. Back then he was Professor Crossland. When my wife and I were married, had children and knew it was time to form an estate plan that made sure our concerns were addressed and issues were remedied we called the Crosslands. Hugh and Carrie addressed our issues and made sure our estate plan was properly executed. We live near the Crosslands in Westwood. I think there is something to be said for professionals who are part of your community. I know our estate plan will do exactly what we wanted. I would highly recommend them.‎

He kept me informed on what was happening with my car and the insurance company and always made himself available to answer my questions. He was even able to obtain a settlement for my injury.

Tabitha is an excellent attorney. She represented me for an OUI 2. She carefully and tactfully constructed a plan during one meeting and was 100% successful in court making things go better than I could’ve imagined. She picked up on a disposition which reduced my case’s penalties greatly, saving me an incredible amount of time and money moving forward. She also maintained communication with me in a detailed and timely manner when I emailed her questions. Tabitha is a “go-getter” attorney. If you want a representation from someone takes care of her clients like she did for me, pick her

Mike is extremely knowledgeable, empathetic, and always in your corner! While he is affable with his clients, he can be a pitbull with the other lawyers if need be. He and his staff are always on top of everything and their level of communication is second to none. Thank you so much Mike!

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.
