Austin worked with me through my divorce which initially started in late 2022. At some point through the process I tried to work things out which ended up in a second filing. Not only was he polite and understanding he ensured I walked away happy. I highly recommend Austin to anyone especially if it appears to be a complicated situation. He will not only get the job done well...he'll do it with flying colors. Thank you very much for your services!

Austin was a referral from a friend of mine and I am extremely grateful for hiring him when I did. I was apprehensive of hiring another lawyer after having had a terrible experience with a different attorney who was a disorganized mess. Austin is extremely professional, well versed with family law, puntual and most importantly, organized. If you are in the market for an attorney I would highly recommend Austin, he takes a great deal a pressure off your shoulders and you genuinely feel like you’re in good hands.

James Kuzmich helped us through the sale of our intellectual property and other details and shepherded us through a difficult negotiation and transition. He is prompt, efficient, easy to work with, reasonably priced, and very fair to both parties in everything he does. His assistant Austin was very helpful as well. I feel very fortunate to have been referred to Jim to help us with a once-in-a-lifetime event.

As a veteran with charges i was ashamed of, this law office as a whole always made me feel welcomed, answered all my questions, and made me feel comfortable in an uncomfortable situation. Everytime i have called with a question it was answered quickly and everyone is so kind and professional. My case ended up in Veterans Court and Attorney Chris had plenty of experience working with veterans and made that transition easy. I would absolutely recommend using them.

The Law Offices of Daniel J. Marco, PLLC has helped me and my wife tremendously. We were rear ended by a teenager who carried an insurance coverage provided by a company with a sketchy reputation (based on reviews). according to those reviews we did not have any hope to see a dime from this Insurance despite teenage taking responsibility for accident 100%. We found Daniel Marco online and recognized he was the one help we needed to defend our interests. Not only we got our car repaired within days, but all our medical bills were promptly paid and we got money for our pain and suffering. Reading other people's experience with this Insurance company, whatDaniel achieved was nothing short of miracle. You will appreciate his services, he will not let you down. thank you Marco for your help. we wil recommend you to all out friends.

First of all, I want to shout out a huge THANK YOU to Mr. Joshua Barreda and his wonderful staff for all of their support and professionalism! Josh, the day finally came for us and it was worth every tear and all the ups and downs of this extremely life changing case! Mr. Barreda took our case on behalf of my daughter and our precious, innocent grandson. Upon our first consultation, Josh took the challenge of this unique , and complex case . We had been advised prior by family court attorneys that this case could not be done and we would have very little chance of winning. My grandson needed an advocate on his behalf to keep him safe, physically and emotionally, from an absent parent that abandoned him since birth, due to the arrest and criminal charges and a lengthy and prolonged 6 yr criminal trial with his co-defendant. We filed a private severance case and due to the other party's excuse/ argument, it set the case as a precedence. If won by opposing party, it would have altered past and future cases for the worst, including adoptions. During the lengthy trial we united and prevailed as a family in prayer and support and Josh stood strong by our side during this difficult time. He was amazing and we knew he would do everything he could. Josh, did an excellent job in providing exceptional and applicable case text to support the written argument as well as applying it to tear down the defendants defense arguments. Many false allegations and weak excuses by the defendant were brought to light by Mr. Barreda. Josh, took the matter to heart and he knew the seriousness of this matter and the injustice. He dug deep in the final days and used his knowledge and skills along with his tenacity to WIN on behalf of our family! I can say that we truly believe he saved their lives! Words cannot express our gratitude. We are so truly grateful to God for sending us Mr. Barreda. I would also like to say this, for those that are fighting against the odds and protecting your children (we were told by many the verdict we received was equivalent to obtaining a death sentence) nothing is impossible! Mr. Barreda and his law firm obtained that victory. They believed with us and put it into action on behalf of our family! When others told us it was too late and impossible, Josh, had a different opinion and was fearless and bold enough to take it and advocate for the innocents. He knew the law and was aggressive when needed. Needless to say, I highly, highly recommend Barreda Law! We put our most precious things in his hands , our children!

Michael (and Josh) were exactly what I was looking for! I had a previous attorney that would not listen to me and it cost me so much anxiety, stress, frustration, and money. These guys listened to me, provided guidance, and took me out of things that I didn't need to be involved in which let me breathe and not freak out unnecessarily. My case was complex and difficult to prove. I wasn't sure I would find someone that could help me but Michael did just that! Can't recommend them enough!

While no one can always predict the outcome of any case with perfection, the pros and cons and reasonable-ness are very much appreciative and spot-on.

Honest, simple, direct and to the point. I called him for a consultation and thought for sure I had to hire a lawyer. He advised me how to take care of my problem myself and that did not need a lawyer. However, he still took the time to explain to me what I need to do. If I ever need an attorney in the future I will definately give Karl a call.

Karl Mueller is definitely the guy you want to hire as your attorney. I got a ticket for littering. Throwing an unlit cigarette butt on the road. Turns out this is a criminal offense with possible fine, community service, and jail time, plus stays on your record as a crime forever. I had talked in length with a different attorney who told me this was no big deal, it would be fine, and they should be able to get it reduced. I called Karl and chose him because he truly cared about this going on my record, the specifics of my case, and the things important to me, ( I am 50 years old with a clean record). He did not promise anything, he was honest, LOTS of experience, use to be a prosecutor, has a relationship with the courts, knows the judge and what can potentially work best for me. We spoke on the phone a few times and I trusted him with my case. The day before court he called me to say my case was completely dismissed. WOW!!! He really does work behind the scene. This was not luck, or just simple, that's not me. I choose my attorney wisely and he did his best for me as I believed he would. If you are reading this call him!!!! He answers his phone and returns calls. Best call you will make!!! If you smoke put a water bottle in your car for butts! THANKS KARL!!!

First, I really appreciate what Mr. Muller has done to my case. At first, I was received a ticket for Criminal Speeding. And that time I did not realize the seriousness of it and plead guilty immediately. However, then I know Criminal Speeding would leave a criminal record and I ask Mr. Muller to deal with my case. He first helped me to withdraw the "plead guilty" and appeal again. Although the process lasted a long time, the result is satisfactory. I quite recommend Mr. Muller to deal with the traffic case.

I had begun my Court case journey with Zalena during the early 1990's. My divorce took about two years to resolve, and child custody continued another five years before I received full custody of my daughter. The case was very difficult and complex at times mainly due to the financial means of my ex's family and the legal representation they were able to obtain. Zelena and her team had to contend with a couple of different high-powered AZ law firms in order to get the matter settled via the Court. Zelena was determined to obtain an outcome that would serve both my daughter and me over the long haul. We were eventually able to move on with our daily lives uninterrupted from court proceedings. This would not have happened without Zalena's tireless efforts with my case. Please remember during the 1990's, representing a guy was probably a bit more difficult at that time than it probably is today. Fast forward 25 years later, I'm a member of the Arizona State Retirement System and I begin looking into retiring, it was during that time that I found out that the Domestic Relations Order (DRO) was being interpreted by ASRS differently than what was intended. Lucky for me Zalena was still practicing, I called her up and discussed the issue, she refiled to correct the DRO and ASRS had the updated document within a month or so which was very timely because the Courts were closed for physical entry during this time due to the covid pandemic. I guess the most important thing that I would like you to know about Zalena is that she won't be out worked.

Zalena Kersting was my attorney of choice not once but three time in my divorce and child custody proceedings over 10+ years. Dealing with a narcissistic co-parent brings unique challenges to the table. At each phase, Zalena handled the case with competence and efficiency. I was always informed on the status of my case and her preparation prior to and in the courtroom gave me confidence I could protect my child. I have and would continue to highly recommend Zalena.

I would highly recommend Carol to anyone dealing with DCS. After spinning my wheels for almost a year with DCS doing any and everything requested I felt like I was getting no where and terrified of losing my boys. After retaining Carol she spent a few days with me initially, really learning about my case Inside and out. She truly cared and has a passion for what she does. She told me not to worry that my boys would come home to just stick with her. She knew exactly how to handle DCS and in such short time came to an agreement to work on a plan for boys to return home. She is a firecracker and will let your voice be heard. I had been pushed around for a year by DCS jumping thru every hoop 20x and finally felt like I was being treated fairly once Carol came in the picture. My only regret is not retaining her sooner because then things would have gotten worked out a whole lot sooner. Thanks again Carol, me and my boys will forever be thankful!!

My husband and I decided to do the "grown up" thing and get a trust. We had a will drawn up a number of years ago in another state and knew we needed an update. We were less than pleased with the attorney who drew up the will as we were treated as just one of many clients. Having checked with neighbors and friends, we scheduled an appointment with Becky. From the first time in her office and throughout the process, we felt like VIPs. Significant time was spent finding out what we wanted, educating us on several options, and helping us make decisions best suited for our needs. The cost of drawing up a trust was a bit of a shock until I saw the amount of work required to do it properly. My husband and I have made sure that our family members will not be burdened with all the work involved in probating a will. We are both pleased beyond measure with the final result. Thanks Becky & Crew for a job extremely well done.

He has a broad knowledge of all law, but is exceptional at contracts.

We are a small import/export company. As such we have need for legal documents to be drawn up, reseller agreements, contract reviews, NDA's, website terms, etc. Trying to find good legal representation can very challenging and expensive and hurt your wallet. We finally settled on Morrissey Law whom we've been with now for nearly 10 years. They have proven to be insightful, knowledgeable, professional, experienced, very competitively priced and painless. If unable to find an answer (for cases outside their specialty) they have advised of alternate solutions. We have also trusted them for our personal legal needs as well, rental property contracts, lease termination agreements, real estate, setting up trusts, etc. What sets the company aside is not only the personal attention they take but they don't nickel dime you should you have any quick questions, emails, phones calls etc. They take the time to try and fully understand your needs and objectives offering suggestions and advise built from years of experience and knowledge. Jeana does most of the work and has been our go-to person all these years. We very much appreciate her and the business she has built. If you own a small business, have real estate needs, general legal advice, we give our highest recommendation to Morrissey Law.

Prior to hiring Tiffany Scott to assist with my child custody case, I had a total of 15 consultations with attorneys from all over the valley. I felt confident with my decision to move forward with Tiffany for many reasons. The #1 reason was because I felt she was the most genuine and transparent about my options and possible outcomes, while others pretended they could guarantee the outcomes I wanted, which you find out very quickly into a family law case that it is not possible. At every stage of the process, Tiffany took the time to provide me with every possible scenario so that I could make the decision I felt was best for myself and my son. It was critical to me to always have a realistic picture of what I was getting into and what it meant for my son's future relationship with me and with his father. Another reason I appreciate working with Tiffany so much is because she immediately provided tips on how to save money on unnecessary attorney costs, such as minimizing emails and phone call costs by asking as many questions as possible at once. As a single mother, saving costs was very important to me and other attorneys I had consultations with suggested to immediately pursue temporary orders, which ultimately would have been a costly and unnecessary step in my case. Additionally, there were not any minimum hours billed for physical court appearances while one attorney I spoke with charged a minimum of 3 hours for court appearances. A 3rd reason I loved working with Tiffany is because of her timely response to my emails and phone calls; and her clear, detailed and effective communication, which I felt ultimately saved me costs by minimizing back and forth emails or calls. I could go on for a few more paragraphs on why I will undoubtedly hire Tiffany again and refer Tiffany to anyone looking for a family law attorney.

Ms Foster answered my question a long time ago but I didn't realize I could write a review, I hope this message finds you. The question I asked was something that affected me deeply and she responded quickly with a professional attitude but more importantly kindness. The other lawyers answers were cold without any emotional sympathy. I am on SSI and my partner proposed and I was both excited but fearful of the affect on my benefits. She calculated the actual amount I would lose which fortunately was hundreds less than I feared. With her assurance I can start my family with the right calculation and without anxiety. Thank you.

Jake Carlson and his team at Lifeplan Legal are exceptional. They were able to take us from the initial consult all the way through the hiring process and completed an estate plan that my wife and I are extremely happy with. Jake is a true professional. He was always available to answer and review questions, simplify many legal terms and procedures and help us understand the differences between various powers of attorney. My wife and I were very impressed with his depth of knowledge and his genuine care and concern for his clients. The concept of create an estate plan based on values is also another clever and meaningful approach that really resonated with us.

After his death, I was completely lost and emailed multiple attorneys to ask questions on what I needed to do to finish his incomplete trust, and Emily was the only one to thoroughly and thoughtfully answer all my questions. She made this difficult process so much easier, and even though it’s taken over a year to close the estate (due to covid and IRS set-backs,) she was always available to explain the process and ease my neurotic mind, and she always made me feel like I was her most important client.

During the time that Rory Whipple was our attorney, we found him to be nothing but straight forward, truthful, and conscientious. I personally would not believe allegations directed against him. He has preformed his duties in a professional manner with never a hint of any misconduct. I am sure that anyone can have negative allegations lodged against them. Many times it is difficult to prove your innocence, but innocence is there none the less. This is true especially when you have persons, that they themselves have twisted facts. The state bar as usual, has acted in a manor that has not served justice in this case, much as they have done in the past. The state bar hits and misses.

I've known Kristin for almost 20 years. She's been my tax attorney/accountant and my good friend for all of those years. I wouldn't have anyone else handle my personal or business accounting and tax-related legal issues. I highly recommend her.

I had a fantastic experience working with Chris Suffecool as my employment lawyer. From our initial consultation, Chris provided quality advice and was transparent about whether I had a legitimate case worth pursuing. He was prompt in responding to all my questions, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. Chris's friendly and professional demeanor made him easy to communicate with, and I felt he genuinely cared about the success of my case rather than just the financial aspect. In the end, Chris's expertise and negotiation skills led to a very positive outcome with a successful settlement offer. I highly recommend Chris Suffecool for anyone seeking a reliable and effective employment lawyer.

Mr. Fong assisted me with a recent business separation. I was impressed with his ability to simplify a (for me) very complex situation and find a solution that would make me happy. In our initial consultation he was able to clarify options I had not thought of and we made a plan to get me where I wanted to be. He followed up and delivered. He was very helpful in his guidance and professional in his approach while being genuinely caring. I highly recommend him and will surely use his services again in the future.

Not only were these people on top of every aspect of my case, but Brandon and his associates got me a settlement that was easily 4 times more than I was just hoping for. 100% recommend, and will be immediately returning should the need arise.

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.

    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.
