Without Caprice's advice during our consultation I definitely would be in hot water to say the least! If you are looking for a well rounded attorney that is well versed in in multiple types of law. You need Caprice Garcia!

Absolutely an asset to have on your side in any legal battle. Very knowledgeable in all aspects of the law. To call her a lifesaver is an understatement. Hopefully I do not ever need her services again, but if I do, you can rest assured that she will be my first call without hesitation. Anyone that I know that has ever even mentioned anything about a legal matter, she is the first and only person I refer them to and will continue to do so.

I came to Debby with a mound of mistakes through my divorce. She had to undo so many of my mishaps and explained everything in plain English. She let me know all my options, both good and bad, and all she asked of me was to be prepared. The preparation before trial made me feel confident (although horribly nervous and scared) and I was able to answer the cross examanitation without any surprises at all. The trust was earned right away and everything from that point forward was only about winning the case!! The level of trust I have in recommending Debby Mackoy is 100%. I owe so much to her and her entire law firm. They have helped me in so many ways and I cant begin to express my gratitude!!

Mr. Creedon has the desired quality to be an innovative thinker when it comes to legal representation. He is always attentive to the desired outcome of the client and finds alternative, efficient, ways to reach those goals. He is not afraid to put in the long hours required to ensure he is competent and confident on even the newest issues. His top flight legal skills should leave no doubt in a potential client’s mind that he is the right attorney for the job.

The best kind of lawyer is a busy lawyer and Kelly is certainly that. Kelly only spends time on things she knows helps to successfully resolve your case. Here's how she worked with me. Kelly did an A-M-A-Z-I-N-G job of digging me out of a deep legal hole I and a previous lawyer had dug into. BEFORE Kelly I spent a year paying money wrangling through a child support lawsuit, counter lawsuit, the discovery, all the way up to an actual trial, testimony and very contentious settlement agreement was reached and then thrown out the next day. The situation was nothing short of "nuclear." I changed counsel to Kelly. She kept me informed, left out the emotion and carefully worked with opposing counsel to successfully resolve the case within 3 months. I was amazed. THEN, she helped me through a difficult separation AND reconcilliation with my current spouse. That separation helped save our marriage and Kelly played an important part in getting us apart and ensuring we came back together in a legally responsible way. In both situations Kelly listened, acted and ensured successful resolution based on my goals and within her sound legal advice. My advice is hire a busy lawyer... hire Kelly.

I first consulted with Mr. Hogue in approximately 1995. He carefully articulated the distinctions between a support trust, and a discretionary trust as the terms are used in estate planning. We discussed, and he shared with me his publication entitled, “Biblical Principles of Estate Planning”. I’ve practiced law myself for nearly 48 years, and in that time, I have never met a more capable and careful estate planning attorney then Mr. Rex Hogue.

Mark is the kind of counselor you want when you really need an honest answer, or to flat out win. I've hired him many times over the years and he's a no BS counselor worth every nickel of his time. He knows the courts, he knows the system, and if you're in a winner-takes-all battle, then this is the guy you want on your front lines. If you're researching Mark because your attorney is opposing him, then settle now... while you still walk.

My team of attorneys at Burress were nothing short of amazing. Every step of the way I felt understood, heard, and supported. At Burress, you don’t just have one attorney, the whole team puts their heads together to support you. One of my attorneys even said he would work on my case as if it was his family member going through it, and I truly felt that. I hope that no one has to go through what I went through, but if you do, this is the most compassionate group of lawyers you could have behind you. Honest to God, I do not know what my life would look like right now if I didn’t have them to go through this process with.

I pulled in here by accident because maps made it look like it was the correct turn to get to Autozone literally a few feet away. Since the parking lot for this location was not connected to the lot for Autozone, I figured I'd park here for a couple of minutes to go recycle my old engine oil and be back and gone quick. No harm, right? Coincidentally after a few seconds after parking, a truck shows up and the driver walks up with a "No Parking" sign and asks ME where he should put it, first on the spot right next to mine. Assuming he was the location owner, I immediately realized that I was disturbing him by parking there and asked if he'd like me to leave. He said it was fine that I parked there, and then again asked where he should put the sign, first the spot next to me, then where I was parked he then pointed out the sign he had facing the street that said no parking. At this point, I knew he was kindly letting me know I wasn't welcome there, and got back in my car and drove off to take the long way to get to the building just a few feet away. I don't understand why me parking there was such a big deal anyway. What if I was going to enter the location? Now, if I'd parked my car there for an extended period of time, then I could see the issue. But for five minutes? Not the kind of people I would do any business with or suggest anyone go to.

I became a client of this firm after my attorney Chris Konneker joined a few months ago. I was optimistic about following him from His old firm, as he had been excellent up to that point and once we made the move, he proceeded to continue smashing it until the case was settled. He’s worth a hire, and even worth a follow to another firm. ONDA is a better company for having him on the roster. 2 years of correspondence with him and my only regret is that I didn’t get to meet him and shake his hand. But even that is a testament to the convenience and ease ONDA provides.

David truly cares about his clients and their children, and works tirelessly to help get the best results. He is realistic and very experienced, particularly in Denton County, and will tell you what's reasonable, what isn't, and the best way to get the result you need. He answers emails promptly, within hours if not minutes. His office staff is equally kind and do their best to help. Today, for example, I called, but hung up and decided to email instead. Almost immediately, I received a call from his office, making sure that I was ok and didn't need help because the receptionist saw that I'd called.

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.
