I have been blessed with the legal counsel of the Alonzi Pellow Beggan, LLC firm for eight years. Over that time any case I have presented them with has been dealt with, in the most diligent professional manner. I have always received favorable sentences, I believe because of my excellent representation. In my last matter, Shawna handled my case personally, and I have been made whole again because of the expert advice and care she handled my case with. From beginning to end she was always contactable and very helpful. I would highly reccomend her services to any friend or anyone who I wish wellness for.

Shana has been a blessing in disguise as far as my situation went. She not only was very professional, organized and informative but she is also compassionate for the people she represents and their situation. For my personal situation she not only went the extra mile to make sure I was safe in what was going on in my case but she was also direct to the point. No hidden surprises and works hard to make the best deal out of any situation. After my case was done I felt Shana had befriended me and was concerned for my ongoing issues with my ex husband and was always concerned for my well being. She is awesome, I can say I love her because she had saved me from potential catastrophe. Thank you Shana and Firm for all you've done and continue to do for me. Definitely rated a 10 or more in my book...

I unequivocally recommend Holland, Holland Edwards, and Grossman. Like most who need their services, we came to them during extremely difficult circumstances after a wrongful death, a death that left behind 5 children. Anna and Erica were our champions. They advocated for us not only to get the compensation due to allow the children to be supported and to receive ongoing therapy for the awful situation, but Anna and Erica also were driven to make sure that this awful situation never happened to anyone else. They were the utmost professionals, while also making us feel cared for and supported. I still send them updates about the kids to let them know how much their work meant to us. This law firm is the whole package. I am so grateful that we found them.

It has been my honor and privilege to be represented by Anna Holland Edwards. She is a professional of the highest caliber. Anna treated me with dignity and respect at all times, listening with compassion and discernment. She worked tirelessly on my behalf, guiding and supporting me through a difficult trial. She displayed astonishing insight into my situation, then pursued my cause with unremitting intelligence and energy. Anna is brilliant. She is a thoroughly ethical expert. She called in a full array of superior trial skills and dedicated them to presenting the whole truth on my behalf. She used the full power of the law, with all its nuance and artistry, to win my case. As difficult as this ordeal was for me, Anna turned it into a positive, life changing experience that I will always recall with complete satisfaction. She and her firm did all the heavy lifting for my case. Her work on my behalf elevated me above the pain, frustration and shame associated with my case. She cleared my name and saved my reputation. I recommend her without reservation.

I have hired Jessica to help me with two legal cases. Both times her and her paralegal, Carrie, were extremely helpful, professional and responsive. She took all the stress off my shoulders when it came to my divorce! Also, while I was away on military duty she continued to handle my case when I wasn't able to attend face-to-face meetings and contact was limited due to my circumstances. I highly recommend Jessica to assist you with your family law issues.

I cannot think more highly of a human being than I do of Erica Anderson. She was never my actual legal representation so I can't speak to that. But what I can speak to is that Erica is a genuine, quality human being that cares about people. And she would be my first choice as a defense attorney in a heartbeat. I called almost every single law office in Denver, scared, trying to get through to anyone, leaving messages asking for legal advice. Not even for defense advice, but as to what I should do about a really scary boyfriend situation. I paid a hundred bucks just to talk to someone at a different firm for 10 minutes who said there was nothing I could do. And I kept getting back receptionist emails like "Sorry. We don't handle those types of cases, just call the police." Erica Anderson is the only person that called me back. At 6pm on a Friday. Just to help walk me through the next steps I should take. Kind of embarrassing but she probably listened to me cry for at least an hour. Erica was there for me when no one else was and gave me the confidence to move forward with prosecution. Erica Anderson, please know that I appreciate you from the bottom of my heart. And that dude is going to jail soon. Thank you.

Ms. Threet provided legal counsel for a domestic violence charge I acquired in 2006. She advised me of my legal rights and explained to me the legal process. She made sure to break down the complicated language of motions and other legal jargon that comes with being charged with any case. She is one of the most compassionate people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. She is extraordinary in her understanding of the law and masterful in her application of it. She embodies more than just legal counsel, she is a warrior of the people for the people!

In 2007 and 2008 the construction firm for whom I worked as HR Manager had an employment claim filed by a former employee who felt he was wrongly classified as a non-exempt employee. In our relationship with the law firm, Diane started in a supporting role but saw her role in the case expand when the lead attorney left to join another firm. Diane clearly understood the world of construction and showed the capability to apply employment law principles to the realities of construction work. Diane was always well-prepared and had examined every possible detail of the case prior to a meeting or hearing. As my company's representative for this case, I had complete confidence in Diane's work, which then provided good reason to have confidence in her legal opinions. I found Diane to be very professional and personable while also showing consideration toward our running legal costs. This combination is sometimes rare among attorneys. I recommend Diane completely.

Teresa was recommended to me by someone in a mom's group. I left her a voicemail after checking out her website (she has a firm with her husband). She texted me after trying my number but my voicemail was full. We scheduled a call the next day and we spoke for about an hour about my situation regarding possible lawsuit for child custody or visitation in a very complex IVF case also involving stored embryos. I felt immediately at ease with Teresa. I'd previously spoken to 2 other lawyers and by comparison, Teresa didn't evoke fear in me of worst case scenarios or act like a power lawyer caring most about ego and track record of "winning." Instead she exuded a calm, reassuring confidence, asking all the right background questions and walking me through the way the law works and courses of action and strategy, Teresa was very understanding and giving of her time, not only with the call but with some research she did and follow up off the clock and in a way that would protect my privacy. It was very clear she cared. I highly recommend Teresa.

She was very honest and upfront about what I should expect. She is very knowledgeable in this area of the law and I felt that she definitely had my best interest at heart.

I, as General Counsel, retained Mr. Lasater for the purpose of pursuing a claim against a faulty software product that didn't operate as offered. It was a complex case with a plethora of legal documents and issues of contract, choice of law, intellectual property, and generally litigation. His advice in the prepatory phase was honest, cost effective, no nonsense possibilities and issues. He became familiar with a large number of technical people on both sides, the technical issues of both hardware and software, some issues of securities and generally made my job simple. He also paid attention to detail in the process of depositions all while also noticing details at our location that divulged information about the defendant that had a serious impact on their position. It was settled at a price that was more than we expected and I will use him again. Thank you Kieran!

In my unique and challenging business, it is imperative that I have an excellent attorney. I have found this in Kieran Lasater. His litigation skills are so impressive, his ability to think and react on the fly is a rare thing to find and in my opinion is the BEST quality a lawyer can have, especially a litigator! His calming demeanor and witty personality make him easy to work with, and he is responsive and is a great listener. I could not recommend him more highly.

It’s with pleasure and thankfulness that I take the time to write this review for Mr. Phil Klein. He offered very professional service, outstanding counsel and best law practices in Colorado, being always ahead of deadlines and follow-up procedures, all this making the divorce process very short and effective. Right from the beginning I had a very good impression of Mr. Klein’s attentiveness and honesty; I needed someone I could trust since I was trying to perform the whole process while living in Europe! Mr. Klein gave me excellent representation at court, being as well fair to the other party. The outcome exceeded my expectations! I’m very thankful for having found this exceptional lawyer and for the excellent help provided by Monique Mountain with all the paperwork! I highly recommend Mr. Klein’s Services and wish him and his team and families many blessings!

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.
