Attorney Sills was incredible. Not only is he personable and guided me through the uncomfortable and stressful process without a hitch, but he also knows his stuff and his knowledge made the difference in my case. I did not know about the "clean slate" act. I had a misstep as a young man 20 years ago, and it would have affected my case. Attorney Sills argued my past charge should not be taken into account because of the Clean Slate Act, and because of that I was treated as a first offender. I was handed down a much more manageable consequence as a result. I'm dumb for the mistake I made, but overall I'm a good law abiding citizen and family Man, and I needed his help to guide me through this. If I tried to save money and go at it myself, I would have not known that and would have been given a much stiffer punishment. Having Attorney Sills on my side made all the difference. Another reason I liked working with Mr. Sills was because he was trustworthy. I spoke with a different lawyer before I called Attorney Sills. That lawyer said my case should be $10,000 but he would "cut me a deal for $8,000 because I was a veteran". SMH, I felt like I was buying a used car. I then called Attorney Sills and he was a straight shooter, it was just "here's our rate", no haggling, this is what it is. I liked that a lot, and the price was half the price of the other guy who supposedly "was cutting me a deal". He's fair, friendly, and knows his stuff. He and his paralegal team were very communicative with all the steps in the process, all I needed to do was follow their direction and I was good to go. One last thing I liked, which seemed to help although I never discussed it with him. He is local to the greater Hartford area and seems to knows these folks well. The prosecutor, the judges, Bail commissioner, etc. He seems to have everyone's respect, and when negotiating a case that personal touch has got to matter somewhat I would guess. I don't know how much difference it made, but it did give me comfort that he seemed to know the room and they seemed to know him. All in all, I can't say enough about the guy. I know this may sound embelished like I'm his Aunt writing a review or something, but trust me, I'm a real dude. A 45 year old Army Vet, football Coach, career in sales. I'm a legit person who was very fortunate to have made the decision to go with Mr. Sills. I never stop to write reviews but after how great he was, I had to leave him a top rated review, he deserves it and I couldn't be more thankful for his help. On his Website, he has a phrase that says something along the lines of, "Don't allow your life to be ruined because of one mistake". Theat originally caught my eye because overall I'm a family man that made a rare mistake but shouldn't be ruined for it. Exactly what that phrase said is what happened. I did have some consequences as I should have, but my life is not ruined from it and I am able to stay afloat and get back on track moving forward thanks to Attorney Sills. If you ever find yourself in a jam, Mr. Sills is your Man. You will not regret it, and hopefully this review helps steer you in the right direction. Thank you for all your help Attorney Sills, I am extremely grateful. Sincerely, Grateful in Ellington Matt

Pat, a remarkable lawyer, has been instrumental in helping me rectify my life and regain control. Initially facing 37 felony charges, he successfully negotiated a 2-year probation. Without his intervention, I wouldn’t be here today. Pat’s strategic thinking and extensive knowledge are evident in hisability to devise a comprehensive plan to guide individuals stuck in a rut, providing them with the necessary tools to reclaim their lives. I am eternally grateful for his unwavering dedication and the invaluable lessons I’ve gained since entrusting him with my legal matters.

From the moment we left Pat’s office after our consultation we knew he would be the best representation for our son. Pat is a very knowledgeable, empathetic and down to earth person. Throughout the whole process he was always available no matter what time it was, even on weekends. Pat would also callme and my son just to check in and see how he was doing. Without Pat I don’t know if we would have had the same outcome. After this I consider Pat a dear friend to our family. I highly recommend Patrick Tomasiewicz for your Attorney without hesitation!

Attorney Tomasiewicz exudes trustworthiness and confidence, with not even the slightest hint of arrogance or impatience.

Freya goes above and beyond for her clients -- for the case of my wife (Indian citizen) and I (US citizen), she gave us critical information regarding the filing of our AOS application even before we met her for an initial consultation, and worked very hard to send our application on time. She also has a tremendous amount of patience as she answers our questions all throughout the process, and also very quickly! Freya also stays on top and current on the immigration policy changes that are happening constantly, and the way she prepares you for the interview is excellent -- we received our green card (in hand) a week after our interview date.

Imagine your defense having the innocent face of “Little Mikey,” (Michael J. Fox) fighting vigorously against the prosecution causing them to make critical errors while keeping out potentially harmful evidence however, admitting favorable evidence which led to my dismissal with no repercussions. Greg fantastically used his expertise and experience with “case law” to win over the Judge in selecting the right jurors for my case. Greg and his team was playing the game of chess rather than the prosecution playing a game of checkers. He is an out of the box thinker focused on driving home positive results on every argument the prosecution brought. Make no mistake, if your livelihood and future is on the line- then you need Attorney Greg Gagne and his team fighting for you!

What can I say about Keith Scherer and Greg Gagne, mostly nice things. Have you ever been accused of something horrible you didn't do and having to convince everyone you're innocent? I've tried to maintain my good morals and positive work ethic during my time in the dark and prove to everyone my innocence but having two TDS lawyers just wasn't enough. My dad referred me to these guys, one a gentle being who examines everything and the other a straight shooter who gets straight to the problem (no beating around the bush, this is real!). I have been extended past my ETS Date for over a year because of a sexual assault and domestic violence issue my ex wife's accusations originating based on spousal support and deployment pay, thanks to Scherer, Gagne & associates, I'm now a free man who will be out processing soon with my hard earned benefits and DD-214 in hand. My wife and I can continue to live our lives without the burden or stress of my ex wife and I will be able to sleep comfortably knowing that I won't be a registered sex offender or a resident of a military brig of Leavenworth. We all know that SHARP/ SARC is always advertised especially around posts, but when you become a victim of being the wrongfully accused, just remember these guys, they will get you back on the right track.

I have had a mental health condition for over 25 years now and because I often refused to take my medication I racked up a pretty extensive criminal history. A rap sheet. When I received charges of Robbery, Threatening, and Assault I feared I would be doing some more jail time probably like a year or so. Fortunately, a bail bondsman recommended Attorney Klein to my wife. We had a consultation with him. After reading the police report and asking me a few questions Atty. Klein immediately noticed that there was no Robbery and no way that a judge would convict me on that charge. Right away he was going to take the felony out of the equation. He also said that because there were mitigating circumstances he could probably get the two misdemeanors of 2nd degree Threatening and 3rd degree Assault reduced to probation. I was confident in his ability after speaking with him and seeing some of his testimonials on the wall in his waiting room. So we retained him. In the first meeting with the prosecutor, the prosecutor brought to the surface that I had fourteen convictions. I was worried, but confident in my counsel. Atty. Klein did just what he said he was going to do and he got the Robbery charge thrown out. So now we were left with two charges, one of them being violent. Atty. Klein told the prosecutor we could settle with a short amount of probation. I was still a little worried that the prosecutor might not agree to my Attorney's proposal but Atty. Klein informed me that the prosecutor was considering it based on how the victim reacted. So we had to wait longer while the victim's advocate did their job. It turns out God was with me because the victim did not want to condemn me but just to see me get some help. So when all the dust finally cleared after long continuances do to Covid 19. Atty. Klein did exactly what he said he could do in his consultation and the Robbery charge was dismissed and I was able to plead out to two misdemeanors and ended up with a short probation. At the time I was eligible for a public defender, but after years of dealing with court system I know that had I chose to take that course my outcome would not have been as good. A public defender also known as public pretender in the incarceration system and is a state's attorney just as a prosecutor is a state's attorney. In my experience they are just there to facilitate ease of operations between the judge and the prosecutor and the accused. They don't take the time to really hear you out or fight for your case. If you are facing charges spend the money and hire a good private attorney because in the long run you'll be glad you did. And if you need to hire a good private attorney hire Atty. Klein in Hartford. He is a powerful lawyer with almost 50 years of experience. He was able to keep me out of jail and he can do it for you too.

Hello, My name is Frank I felt it important to take a minute to provide some feedback regarding my experience with the Rojas Lawfirm. First about Attorney Rojas, Jose is a extremely compitent and accomplished attorney his knowledge of the law and the way the system works is brilliant. Jose intrenches himself in your case never making mention of the ammount of time and research he puts into the matter. Attorney Rojas is a compassionate person in his approach to the client but also is extremely honest and forthcoming when it comes to what your expectations of a case should be. in my experience he was extremely prompt, responsive, and professional. The results I recieved were beyond my expectations and I credit Jose's patience, research, and knowledge of the law for much of that. Too many times in today's world you pay for services only to be dissapointed in what you get in return, not with this man!! I am happy to say this was one of the better choices I have made when seeking professional legal services and would highly reccomend his firm. Sincerely, Frank

I had a wonderful experience working with Scott Carlson, or as I know him, Scott. From day one he knew exactly the in's and the out's of everything that pertained to my case. I was thoroughly impressed with the knowledge he had of law and he was very professional. My case went on for a long time, not due to Scott, but due to the insurance company he was dealing with. Even though sometimes it felt like I would never get any resolution, Scott always made me feel assured, like he knew just what to do. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the hard work that went into my case. I was more than happy with the outcome of everything. I couldn't have done it without an experienced and skilled lawyer on my side. I was time and time again amazed at how well he knew the "tricks" the insurance company were trying to do. When it comes to an injury that isn't your fault, it can seem like a helpless situation regarding the insurance companies. Scott has the experience and knowledge to know exactly what to do when under pressure. I highly, highly reccomend working with Scott. He is not only very professional but very personable and friendly. I feel like he genuinely cared about helping me.

He respresented me in 2 P.I cases and I had hired him for 2 criminal cases and he did an amazing job in getting me what I had wanted. I highly recommend him, you will not be disappointed!

As an attorney practicing in CT, I have had Attorney Kriesen serve as a mediator in numerous cases. He is thorough in his preparation, neutral in his reasoning, and highly effective in leading the way to a middle ground. From a logistics standpoint, he and his staff also make the process (especially scheduling) very easy.

Chris Kriesen became my attorney nearly 4 years ago. I benefited from his diverse experience as a lawyer and mediator. His hard legal skills are impressive, but equally impressive is his unique skill to understand the motivators, personality traits and nuances of a client. He focuses not just to understand facts and law, but understand his client. This allowed us to have mutual trust and for him to listen and communicate in a manner unique to my perspective. I highly recommend Chris not just for achieving results but for how he takes the journey with his clients to the results.

After being bit in the mouth by a dog, I was referred to Michael Jainchill at RisCassi & Davis and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. If you are looking for a lawyer who is quick to respond to emails, keeps you posted on updates regarding to your case, and doesn’t beat around the bush, Michael is the Attourney for you! Michael is very personable and extremely easy to get along with. He truly treated me as if I had known him for years and I can’t emphasize enough how great he was to me. I would recommend him to anyone who has suffered a personal injury and wants to receive as much as possible for their pain, suffering, and injury. I will be sure to contact Michael Jainchill at RisCassi & Davis again if something were to ever happen to me or my family. If you look at his accomplishments, he is one of the most well respected lawyers in the area and has succeeded in many large settlements for many different personal injuries. Check him out and I am confident you will have a great experience also! I’ve dealt with several lawyers in the past and Michael is by far the best so far!

Having worked with Michael Jainchill on more than one occasion, we would recommend him without hesitation. Michael will call to see how you are doing, his concern for his client's well-being is genuine. He takes time to listen and does not rush you to make a decision. You have to be satisfied with the outcome of your case. There are no "office hours" with Michael, he always responds to emails & phone messages in a very timely manner, even after hours and weekends.

Michael Jainchill is the best personal injury lawyer in the State of Connecticut. He is kind, professional, courteous and will fight for your deserved settlement. He will not overstate your case's importance, however you will know by his results that your case was always his priority. While working toward a settlement last year on my personal injury case, he negotiated with my medical provider to settle my outstanding medical bill for far less than their invoice, thereby ensuring a larger settlement for my future medical needs. I have worked for attorneys and law firms for over 30 years; I have extensive knowledge of personal injury cases and attorneys in this field. I would wholeheartedly recommend Michael Jainchill to anyone who is in need of a highly-qualified personal injury or medical malpractice attorney.

Attorney Eric Polinsky and his team represented me in a personal injury/workman’s compensation case. Attorney Polinsky was my "Knight in shining armor," not only is he smart, proactive and assertive, he's also extremely empathetic. He got me a settlement in my favor. He helped me navigate through a difficult and intimidating situation. He was responsive with any questions, phone calls and emails. I would highly recommend his team to anyone that wants amazing representation. I COULDN’T THANK THEM ENOUGH FOR THEIR HARD WORK!

Attorney Ronalter is one of the best lawyers I have ever encountered, and because I am a lawyer myself, I have encountered many. But I did not know Bill professionally until I found myself needing a personal injury attorney. I had been in a motor vehicle accident, where the nature of my injuries initially impaired my ability to see how much I needed a lawyer. By the time I hired Bill, there would be unforced errors in my case that he would have to clean up or live with. Attorney Ronalter never flinched at any of them He dealt with each one, always remaining a strong advocate for me, while never letting me lose sight of what was realistic. His high goals were mixed with just the right amount of reality. For me, this is part of what made him a great lawyer. When it was time to discuss new events in the case, or the results of my evaluations, or what path to take next, he never made me feel rushed or as if there was a better case he could be working on, while he was working on mine. He always gave me his full attention and he always gave me full and prompt briefings on what had occurred in the most recent communication with the defendant’s carrier. And then, as if to tell me he saw me as a whole person and not as a vehicle to a pay day, he would ask about my dogs and tell me about his own. In the handling of my case, I can’t imagine any lawyer doing more or doing better or treating me with more kindness. In the end, when he had gathered every fact and had put the events and my injuries together, he presented me with an honest assessment of what he thought and how he saw it from different angles; but then did what any good lawyer should do: he left the final decision to me. He told me he would be support me whether I chose to settle my case or let it continue into litigation. And he meant it. I chose the former, and he negotiated an excellent settlement that made sense in light of all of the facts. It felt right to me then, and it still feels right to me now. I knew before I ever asked for an initial meeting with him, that he was a competent and experienced lawyer. Quick research can provide anyone with that information. But I could not have known through research how kind, considerate, and accessible he would be. He kept me informed every step of the way. He responded to every one of my phone calls. He answered every question with complete candor and honesty. He worked as hard on my case as anyone possibly could have and then secured the outcome I wanted. And if all that were not enough, after our professional relationship ended with the settlement of my case, Bill contacted me to send his condolences when he learned that my dog had died a month into the pandemic. That’s just who he is. I would recommend William J. Ronalter to anyone who needs a great lawyer and who also wants his lawyer to be a good human being.

I wa a injured in a car accident on the highway on my way hone from work. I sustained a head injury changed my life. I was working as an ER nurse at the time in 2 different hospitals and loved what I did. That day changed my life. Mr. Ronalter represent me and my case. He went above and beyond. He cared about me as a person and what I lost my career, that I worked so hard to achieve. His team was incredibly and respectful in all aspect of my case. My life will never be the same but he put me in a place that I am financially stable. I could still reach out to him and his firm today and they get right back to me. I am so happy I choose him.

I originally was referred to Shipman and Goodwin by another attorney. After interviewing with Bill and Jim, I was convinced this was the legal team I wanted to take over my automobile accident lawsuit. Throughout the entire duration of my case, the attention, professionalism and care that Bill displayed with his associates, lacked in absolutely nothing short of perfection. My case was wrought with problems and issues; Shipman and Goodwin was the 4th firm I had hired, and needless to say I was very apprehensive by the time I retained their services. Bill handled very sensitive and personal information with attentive, courteous and polite methods, making me feel protected and safe, while guiding and prepping me through the legal proceedings before my trial. At no time during the period of 2 years did I ever doubt his abilities or experience in the process. I knew that if I was to get through my case with a positive outcome, that there was no better firm or set of attorneys out there to complete the job. I was impressed with both Jim and Bill's varying skills, complimenting each other within different realms of my case, with the end result of tying up any loose or unfinished details, making for a completely thorough case to be presented for a jury trial. When jury time came, they were completely ready to present the facts. I highly recommend Bill and Jim at Shipman and Goodwin, it made a truly unpleasant process comfortable and less stressful. I refer them to anyone I know needing legal assistance in brain injury, trauma or automobile accidents. I am deeply grateful for their assistance and services in my case.

Attorney Lerman’s resolution of our situation could best be described as a “work of art.” He successfully guided our company through a very difficult period. As a result of his efforts, we were able to close out a seriously flawed business relationship in a highly professional manner. Attorney Lerman has an incredibly solid understanding of people and thorough grasp of business and business relationships During negotiations, he encouraged us to be involved in tactical and strategic decisions, and it was this collaborative approach that proved to be the key to a successful process and satisfactory resolution. We absolutely recommend him to any business, and look forward to working with him in the years to come.

Attorney Jason Sucoll is one of the most professional people I've ever met. First and foremost this man is very well educated. He may be young but he's certainly not inexperienced. What he did for me is nearly a miracle. Do to the pandemic along with extenuating circumstances my case went on for over three years. Every single time this man showed up. Not just showed up but showed up mentally and ready to go. I would recommend him to anyone. If you ever get yourself in some trouble, he will be the guy that will get you the best result. Jason you truly are a miracle worker. Sincerely, Thomas Gonthier

I had received a charge for reckless driving (major moving violation) and sought Jason's legal counsel. Jason took the time to explain in detail the impact of several outcomes that could occur and what options we had - ultimately reducing the charge to speeding (simple traffic violation). I was very impressed with his attention to detail, his willingness to answer any and all questions I had accurately and timely, and professional demeanor that kept me calm during a stressful time. I would highly recommend Jason to anyone that is in need of legal counsel. 5/5 stars!

  4. What is your approach to handling cases like mine?

  7. What is the likely timeline for resolving my case?
    Get an estimate of how long the process may take from start to finish.

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.

      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.
