After joining Legal Shield and working with Attorney Brook who guided me at every step and later when I worked with other associates I was pleased.
However, now that I am asking for guidance my queries are not being responded to — now is the time when I need support the most.
I will continue having Legal Sheild and FKM by my side as it’s a huge comfort for someone at my age and in my situation.
Sincerely,
Sohaila Pirani

OMG! How do I even put words together to explain what an awesome Attorney John Caffrey is. Found him on the web & he responded quickly to hear my situation. Hired him immediately after our talk. I have been in a domestic issue where my X played the victim & had a restraining order against me for years. The DA wouldn't budget. Today I celebrate the freedom & all charges dropped against me thanks to John. He is a straight up Attorney with no gimmicks & he is there to protect you & fight for you in the best way of your situation. THANK YOU JOHN CAFFREY for being my Hero & ending this nightmare for me. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM. Good luck to everyone

Marilyn Wenz gave me the guidance, professional help, and time that I needed to legalize my divorce. She answered all of my questions throughout the divorce process immediately, and provided assistance through this difficult, frustrating, and upsetting time. She was always available via E-mail, phone call, or conference. She was extremely thorough, as well as professional. I trusted all of her decisions, and I was extremely comfortable with her, as well as her office.

I was fortunate to have Ms. Wenz successfully represent me in a appellate matter. Although my case was a criminal matter, and not her primary area of practice, Ms. Wenz believed in my case and agreed to file the appeal. Undoubtedly, her hard work, strong writing, and dedication to my case were the reasons why the initial charges against me were all dismissed on appeal. I am forever thankful for the representation I received from Ms. Wenz.

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:
-
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. -
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. -
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. -
What is your approach to handling cases like mine?
Learn about their strategy, whether they prefer negotiation, mediation, or litigation. -
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. -
How will you communicate with me throughout the process?
Establish expectations for updates, preferred communication methods, and response times. -
What is the likely timeline for resolving my case?
Get an estimate of how long the process may take from start to finish. -
Do you have references from past clients?
Testimonials or references can provide insight into the lawyer's professionalism and effectiveness. -
What are the strengths and weaknesses of my case?
Understanding potential challenges helps you prepare and sets realistic expectations. -
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:
-
Verify Their License:
Check with your state's bar association to confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing. -
