I received exceptional legal support from Isabella Desisto. She made sure to answer all my questions at anytime and made sure i was comfortable moving forward with my case. I was initially very scared and nervous to go forward with it but through her knowledge and empathy while I was preggo she helped me resolve my wrongful termination /pregnancy discrimination case. I am very grateful she was able to take my case and help me out . I would definitely recommend to friends,family and any acquaintances in need of great representation.

To start I will simply say that Craig Cares. He was always very open and honest with me from day one. He asked how I was and helped me out, even when it didn't pertain to my case! He explained everything to me in detail as we went along the case and made me feel like a priority. Simply put Craig Charles is THE BEST Attorney I could have asked for Hands down!

He was readily available and took the time to meet with me often to ensure was briefed and educated on all of the options surrounding my case. He was vey understanding of my situation and was patient, as well as proactive. I didn't have to constantly follow up with him on matters. Additionally, I didn't feel like just billable hours, but rather felt there was a good rapport.

Listen Cortney pulls no punches and honestly should get into politics because she will debate you into your next life if your coming against her client. Having her on my side made me feel lucky cause I would hate being on the receiving end of her questioning. She's professional and scary because again if she's fighting for you, you are gonna start praying those coming against you have tissues for the tears they might cry after she is done with them. The best thing about Cortney is even though she takes no bull and is passionate about defending you, she also makes you feel so protected and thought of. You will NEVER find a lawyer like this who cares about your rights rather than what they would earn. They defend you to the end regardless, and I am so grateful God sent me just the right people to defend me in my sexual harassment case.

I had no idea what I was doing when I was looking for attorney, but what sold me was their slogan, "Women fighting for women." I knew immediately I made the right choice when Cortney and her firm reached out to me only 15 min after I emailed them! They were very caring when listening to my sexual harassment incident at work and were concerned for my wellbeing. I was constantly checked on and asked how I was doing through the course of the case and even offered to help pay for my therapy when I had trouble obtaining a therapist from my own doctors office! She and her firm, fought hard for me and always left the decision up to me. When something like this happens to you, it can be really scary and you dont know what to do. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Cortney and her team. You never feel alone, and you feel taken care of.

When you’re presented with an invitation to attend in a mailer, you may have reservations, this was a truly gift!! My wife and I were educated and guided through the process of creating a family trust. Both of our parents had attorney’s that “worked” with wills/trusts, but came up short. Fortunately, the Schomer Law Group was there! This is a group of attorney’s that only specialize in estate planning, law, and financial advice, so you know you’re getting expert and personalized advice. This is the best money we’ve ever spent!!

We put off getting a trust for years. After attending a seminar with Scott Schomer we realized that the time had come to get a trust. We were given very good reasons for why we should get a trust. No pressure, just the plain facts. We are very relieved and happy to finally get our trust. Scott and Cesar were very knowledgeable, helpful and listened to our ideas of what we had to say. Any questions that we have now and in the future they are available to assist us to solve them. I recommend the Schomer Law Group and I wish we knew about them years ago.

I am an archaeologist with an international profile (see my profile in the London Times website entitled "The Real-life Indiana Jones and the Mansion of Doom"). I have been keenly interested in Homer and his great epic poems, The Iliad and The Odyssey, and I created a multifaceted project to celebrate and research Homer, called The Homeric Project (homericproject.com). A part of that effort was to conduct archaeological fieldwork on a Greek island, searching for the lost Palace of Odysseus from the Odyssey. As part of my overall research on Homer, I believe I have discovered a lost code involving sacred symbolic numbers that Homer, I believe, intentionally incorporated into both his epic poems. I wrote up my research, with my new discoveries, in a research paper entitled, "The Mystery of Homer's Numbers," which I copyrighted with the US Copyright Office in 2013. The reason I retained Mr. Lauson was due to the following. I was conducting my field work in Greece with a colleague, with whom I also spent time writing on a projected book about the project. I had a falling-out with that colleague and terminated the joint project (including the book). In a subsequent letter from the colleague, a claim was made that she had filed a joint co-authorship of my "Homer's Numbers" paper with the US Copyright Office and it was implied that it had not only been applied for, but had actually been accepted and was in force. Therefore, my former colleague made those claims, which were not true. Since I could not stand to have such claims made on my original research, my discoveries and my paper -- and especially after my ex-colleague had an attorney send me a letter re-affirming the false claims -- I was forced to seek a professional attorney to defend me, my work and my reputation. I'm glad I found Mr. Robert Lauson because he did an outstanding job in straightening the mess out. He reviewed the facts I gave him, including a copy of my 2013 copyright which pre-dates the alleged copyright of 2014 by a year. His due diligence also disclosed that my ex-colleague did not submit my paper for copyright as stated. In fact, the copyright was not submitted until May 6 of this year (2015). Mr. Lauson completely agreed with my position on the whole matter and, unlike my ex-colleague's attorney who wrote an inaccurate and disparaging letter to me, Mr. Lauson wrote him back a very professional letter factually pointing out all the "misrepresentations" that my ex-colleague's attorney had stated based on the wrong information he had received from his client. Mr. Lauson also quoted in the same letter the legal precedents which supported my rightful legal interpretation of the case. Furthermore, and subsequent to that letter, Mr. Lauson was proactive with the US Copyright Office and got them to reject my ex-colleague's attempt to make a claim on my exclusive intellectual property. Hopefully that good action will have the effect of being a final termination to the attempt to make any claims on my original research and written research paper. In short, Attorney Robert Lauson was cordial, very professional and knowledgeable about how to handle my case. Moreover, he did an outstanding job of dealing with my adversary's attorney and with straightening out the situation with the US Copyright Office, that resulted in a decision by it in my favor. I can't thank him enough for his good work, which has not only set the record straight but has gone a long way to restoring my peace of mind about my original work and my career.

I was intimidated to speak with a lawyer about an area of the law that was totally foreign to me but I needed a professional opinion of my idea and the likelihood of obtaining a patent. It was as important to me to get an assessment, as it was to learn as much as could about the process. I did not want to drop my idea on a desk and wait for results. A friend of mine referred me to Bob. I knew at the end of our first appointment that he fit my requirements. He explained that his job is to interpret the Patent Law and apply it to my idea, so that if necessary, modifications can me made to be successful with the Patent Office. He made suggestions that gave me food for thought, including that I should consider a trademark for the name. I was very comfortable speaking with him and liked that he took the time to teach me. I left his office feeling good and knowing what I needed to do to keep rolling, what to expect, and that I made contact with a friendly lawyer that will guide me without me being intimidated. Since that appointment, he has communicated with me often to make sure we are progressing. I would recommend him to anyone seeking a patent.

I never wanted to be in a situation to have to go attorney shopping. I was overwhelmed, not prepared, and had been doing everything in my power to save my marriage when I recognized the need. I spoke to 3 attorneys in my exasperation. I then understood the recommendation. I'm certainly better off for it.

Mr. Mandalia handled a very stressful case for me and my company. He listened to my concerns, responded promptly every time I called and most often answered when I called. Mr. Mandalia has the personality to make you feel cared about and is strong in his abilities to communicate with knowledge and professionalism along with great negotiation skills. His firm has a vast majority and many years of legal knowledge and has the professionalism to make the other side realize they are up against a giant in the legal forum. All this together provided us with a very suitable outcome in our case. I strongly recommend Mr. Mandalia and his firm Ford, Walker, Haggerty & Behar. They are and will always be extremely appreciated by me and my company. Respectfully: Larry

The absolute best! If your circumstances bring you the silver lining of being lucky enough to work with Christian and Greene Broillet & Wheeler, you will find them to have an impeccable reputation that has earned them both power and clout throughout the legal community. Their team is honest, compassionate, straightforward, and will not only care about your case, they will care about you as people. They successfully navigated a complex case for us without letting anything fall through the cracks, and continued to fight through all the challenges our case faced. As they said from the beginning, a relationship with them isn't just limited to the case; it extends for life. We couldn't be more grateful for their expertise, heart, and hard work.

When my wife was involved in an accident, GBW was recommended to me by a friend who was very happy with their service. Christian Nickerson and his colleagues did an awesome job working with us to put the case together, conduct negotiations and secure our claim. We are very happy with the settlement and being able to avoid a long court case. Christian was empathetic, professional, balanced, on schedule and very efficient in working with us and in dealing with others on both sides. We were very satisfied and feel confident in recommending him to others.

I’m an attorney in Houston, Texas. We had a lawsuit that needed to be filed in Los Angeles. As someone who had previously practiced for years in California, I knew about Greene Broillet & Wheeler’s reputation and knew they were my first choice as a law firm that I wanted to joint venture with on the case. After reviewing the file, they agreed to take the case. From day one, everyone was professional and easy to work with. Christian Nickerson was the primary, handling attorney on the case and the attorney I worked with the most. He was responsive, answered any questions we had immediately, and corresponded with the clients as well. Client interaction is extremely important to me as an attorney. I believe that we as the attorneys work for the clients. It is their case, and ultimately, my duty is to them to make sure that they are informed at all times and are fully involved in their case. Christian far exceeded these expectations. My client kept telling me how much he appreciated Christian and the work that his firm did for him. Further, Greene Broilett & Wheeler was relentless in going after the opposing party. They pushed for a trial date and pushed for discovery. They were never complacent and were always working to get the client the best result possible. In the end, they were able to get a settlement that was the largest the opposing party had ever paid. I am extremely pleased with the result and firmly believe it was truly the best result for the client that we could have hoped for. I will absolutely work with this firm every chance I can get.

I am grateful for Attorney Woodson. She handled my case with excellence from beginning to end. All attorneys are not created equal. She's a rare find- a great attorney who's upfront about her price, doesn't charge hidden fees, who also delivers fast and efficient service. Couldn't have asked for more. Thanks!

I don't usually do reviews but I had to come on here because I am so happy with the service I got! My husband and I had to file a chapter 13 recently and we were referred by a friend. Attorney Woodson was very competent and gracious and she really made this process so easy. She was very understanding of our situation and put us at ease in what would normally be an overwhelming or stressful situation. I felt like I had a friend who just happened to be a good lawyer and we never felt alone in this situation. If we had a question she didn't make us feel silly for asking and she always would answer us right away. She is also FAST and INEXPENSIVE with no extra fees! We were very very pleased with her service!!! I HIGHLY recommend this law firm!

I cannot be more appreciative of what the Maloney firm did for me! I had used a different firm, and was taken. Mr Maloney stopped "the bleeding", and retrieved fundsthat were wrongfully charged to me. If I had used the Maloney firm from the beginning, things would have gone much better. Mr. Maloney and his entire team could not have been more helpful. Wood Wornall

We hired Patrick upon a referral, and could not have been more pleased with that decision. He was professional, knowledgeable, informative, etc. He stayed in constant contact with us, keeping us aware of all that was going on. This was a very stressful event/case for me, and he was completely supportive, making the process so much easier to endure. He acted not just as a lawyer, but as a friend. I have nothing but positive things to say about him, and I would absolutely hire him again. He is deserving of five stars, as he (and his entire staff) did an outstanding job. Thanks Patrick!

I have been working with Patrick Maloney now for 4 months. He was referred to me by another law firm in San Diego. Mr Maloney has the capabilities of taking on complex issues that span across the globe and simplifying the legal matters better than 99% of attorneys ever would or could. He has the ability to understand any business model, partnership, or business contract in a short amount of time. Patrick sees the "high level" and knows how to conserve time, be effective and diligently represent his clients with passion. Highly recommend and without question, you'll be hearing a lot more about this guy!

After being named in a California defective product lawsuit, my counsel contacted one of the bigger law firms we have very good experience with and we were given a $85,000 estimate to move to dismiss the lawsuit. My colleague also suggested calling his former partner from Preston Gates,John Petrullo in LA, for additional referrals as we anticipated this would be an expensive lawsuit. When I contacted John for suggestions on who he'd recommend, he asked me to send him the Complaint. After reviewing the Complaint, John asked me to give him a couple of days to review the action. I remember expressing a great deal on anxiety as we were to respond to the Complaint and specifically remember John assuring us that he'd take care of it. My colleague told us to trust Mr. Petrullo. Three days later I received an email from John along with a dismissal of the case. My entire dept. was shocked by this result and at a loss when he didn't send a bill for his services. One of the biggest firms wanted 85,000 to file a motion to dismiss. John went to plaintiffs attorneys for a conversation and left with a dismissal. He's refused to bill us. Thank you John

John Petrullo is quite a lawyer. My company was named in a consumer-based class action and, after meeting with the judge , Mr. Petrullo persuaded the plaintiffs' attorneys to dismiss me and my company in a case that could have bankrupted me to defend.

just check Mr. Petrullo out on his website. I was a juror in a recent trial and my co jurors, except 1, talked more about how prepared he was everyday and how he cross examined experts. He tore them apart! But he wasn't disrespectful. The judge yelled at him a lot it seems to me, and he kept moving anyway. nothing bothered him, only thing he would not spend much time with us after trial, said he likes to take a walk by himself after trials. hope this helps hi. good lawyer.

I simply do not have words adequate, kind, and appreciative enough to capture how grateful I am for Jamie Keeton and her entire legal team at Schlichter and Shonack, including the wonderful Kevin Wheeler, Jamie Fountain, and Kellie Baker. I found Ms. Keeton through my employer legal insurance plan and her entire legal team helped me when I was so desperate for help in a legal situation when the opposing party was trying to abuse the legal system to harass, intimidate, and financially harm my family. I spoke to Ms. Keeton in my moments of utter desperation after numerous phone calls with other attorneys and from the moment I spoke with her, I knew that she was brilliant, articulate, fearless, yet kind and personable. She gave me her phone number and told me I could reach out to her any time which was particularly comforting. I waited what seemed to be a very long weekend, hoping and praying that she would take my case, and when she did, I knew there was no greater advocate I could have in my corner. Kevin Wheeler was my point of contact and he advocated tirelessly for me. His words were always so patient, kind, and comforting. Being a type-A professional myself, I far too often did way too much legal research instead of leaving that up to my attorneys and then would email Kevin probably the silliest of questions in my moments of weakness and unease but he would just politely, patiently, and kindly answer my questions and always put me at ease. By the end of the ordeal, I trusted them so much that I stopped reading the opposing party's papers, stopped doing legal research, and just focused on my every day life, knowing well that my attorneys would blow them out of the water with whatever response they were preparing. This was probably the best part of having them represent me because being able to disinvolve myself from something that is particularly emotional is totally against my personality and it can be particularly destructive, especially since the whole point of hiring an attorney is so you can relax. For me, I can really only disinvolve myself if I know I am in good hands, and it only took the reading of one of their legal papers for me to know they've got it totally under control. As a professional myself, it takes a certain amount of skill to be able to handle situations in which people from outside your profession come to your office and present you with data that you know better than they do. Whenever I would be guilty of doing that, Kevin would handle it with such patience and grace, and put me at ease, letting me know they've got it handled. Jamie Fountain was also a gem. She worked tirelessly on the legal research of my case and spent so many hours on the preparation of the legal documents. Every time I would read the legal documents, I would be shocked as to how she and every one else could prepare such persuasive, brilliant arguments with so much legal precedents behind those arguments, with such tremendous efficiency as reflected in their billed hours. For Kevin Wheeler , Jamie Fountain and Kellie Baker, who are still relatively young in their career, to have such talent, I can only imagine the bright future ahead of them. It was no surprise that the entire unpleasant ordeal ended with a legal victory because of everyone's efforts. I could not be more thankful for the sequence of events that led me to Jamie Keeton of the Firm Schlichter and Shonack. While certainly there are no guarantees in any legal situation, I can guarantee that based on my experience, Jamie Keeton and her legal team, will tirelessly advocate for you in a way that is fearless, diligent, persuasive, efficient, kind, and honest. I highly recommend them.

Jamie is an incredibly knowledgable, professional, and compassionate attorney. I was challenged with an unreasonable employer that tried to limit my external career opportunities. Jamie handled the case effectively and quickly. You can tell that Jamie is one of the rare professionals that genuinely believes in the cause she fights for - she was very supportive and put in real effort in my case. I would definitely recommend Jamie as an attorney and as a great person.

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.

    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.
  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.

  • 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.

      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.

      Legal fees can vary significantly by region or city.
    • Additional Expenses:

  • 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.
