Kendra Ortega has been absolutely instrumental in helping me navigate a complex legal situation. Her professionalism, knowledge, and firm approach are unmatched. She has been a tremendous support in helping me set and maintain boundaries against a tactical and abusive opposing party in the case, ensuring that I am protected both legally and emotionally. Kendra has an incredible ability to see right through manipulative tactics and won’t allow the law to be weaponized against her clients. Her solid and no-nonsense approach doesn’t tolerate psychological manipulation or abuse, which has been incredibly empowering for me. Her expertise and commitment to her clients are evident in every interaction. I can’t thank her enough for her guidance and dedication. If you need a lawyer who will stand up for you, protect your rights, and help you find peace amidst the chaos, Kendra Ortega is the one to call. Highly recommended!

Kendra Ortega is an outstanding attorney. She is knowledgeable and skilled and uses her expertise to her best ability for her clients, exceeding expectations. She maintains a high level of professionalism and works well with all sides of the legal issues. Most of all, Kendra is diligent about answering her clients' questions to ensure their understanding of their case so they can make the best decisions. She works hard for her clients and, coupled with her skills, it shows in the quality of her services. Moreover, her assistant Michelle is friendly, helpful, and readily available for scheduling, questions, and handling client matters. I truly cannot recommend Kendra more.

After struggling for several years with a court appointed attorney, We retained the services of Kendra Ortega to assist us in our family court case. Kendra and Michelle went right to work gathering information and talking to the parties involved. When our next hearing was held, our case was dismissed. Thank you Kendra! With your help, my family is back together and moving forward!

Jennifer was recommended to me by a previous client of hers, at a point where I was scrambling for a divorce lawyer. I couldn't have asked for a more competent, personable attorney. She walked me through every step of the divorce process, including budgeting, child support and visitation, and dividing property. She was very professional during negotiations and her office was very flexible with payments. I would recommend Jennifer to every person who needs Family legal assistance.

To be clear, I spoke with his assistant Holly most of the time. She was kind, informative, and very helpful whenever we conversed. That being said, it was frustrating when I would not receive a call or text back sometimes until the next day or even the following. Other than that my experience with them was of the utmost professionalism, and quality. Attorney Moritz will tell you the way things are plain and simple. When you speak with John it's short, to the point, and clear of his opinion and intention. You either have a case or you don't. If he thinks you've got something and accepts your case, he intends to win. I've hired him 2 times now and both times he's given me exaclty what I wanted out of my divorce and child custody. He will represent the good fathers who deserve their kids in their life. He will fight for you, and he will win for you. I HIGHLY recommend John to anyone, especially the good dads out there that are tired of letting the legal system step on them. Hire Attorney Moritz, and give yourself that win.

Going through divorce is never easy. Dan lead me through a very difficult time, standing up for me when I could not stand for myself. The emotional damage from a long and unhealthy relationship made it hard for me to see what was fair and real. Dan fought hard to get a settlement that allowed me to get back on my feet. He was also good at addressing the fine details, asking the right questions and helping me to understand what was going on. He prepared me for our hearing so that I would know what to expect. This helped to calm my nerves. Dan even came to the closing on my house and kept me from getting taken advantage of. Dan is very knowledgeable of the law and truly cares for his clients. I would highly recommend him for any legal matter.

Mr. Kinnaman was very helpful and understanding while we went through the divorce process. He explained each step, why we were doing what we were doing and how to present ourselves in the best possible light. My daughter was devastated by her (now) ex-husbands behavior and that of his family. This hit her out of the blue. Mr. Kinnaman has had ample opportunity to see the effects of divorce on the wronged spouse, as well as the children. His focus was protecting our daughter and her two children from any more of the ex's nastiness. Mr. Kinnamen's prices are reasonable, his office is easy to find, and he's friendly but always professional. He asks questions and actually listens to your answers. He did everything in his power to make this unfortunate situation as painless as possible. In the end the experience was very enlightening. Mr. Kinnaman's manner in dealing with those within the court system and those representing the other side is quite interesting to see. He has my complete trust and I would highly reccommend him.

Being in courts system since 2019 I would LOVE to hire a counselor like Greg VanderWoude, his professionalism tells his story.

I can't say enough about this attorney! We had been so disappointed with our results with our attorney in Tennessee. 10 years and no results! Mr. Betzold was recommended to me by a family member who had wonderful fast results. He told me, Mr. Betzold does not drag you along if he sees you have no case. Definitely appreciate someone like that. No false hopes, just facts! I was not misled! Mr. Betzold and his team went above and beyond for me! They always answered my questions quickly and set me at ease when I was confused as to what to expect next or any other thing that came up. Also, Brenda, what a gem!

I’ve worked with Brett over for years regarding a custody case, Most recently a divorce case. Brett is always extremely professional, & he is really able to show both sides and explain both potential outcomes. I felt like I knew what to expect with Brett, he was prompt with his responses via phone and email. He had great recommendations for compromises in court that ultimately met my needs in the end. Divorce is a very stressful, emotional, draining, exhausting time…..If you know that you are up for a fight & you are looking to be representing by a sharp, organized, detail oriented, compassionate, professional, Brett will get the job done!

I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing legal help especially in family cases like my own.

I retained Holly this past May when I discovered that my now ex-wife was filing for divorce. The one stars on this page must not have an understanding of how divorce works. There are no winners or losers in a divorce. You reach settlement. No more than that should be read into it. Expect the cost. No one works for free. For myself, the whole process was more stress free and thorough than I could have imagined. We were able to work together to reach an equitable settlement through arbitration avoiding the cost of a trial. Because our children are adults, there were no messy custody issues so the process was started and completed within five months. I won't say that I won or lost. There is no such outcome in divorce. I achieved what I had hoped to, and I choose to be happy with that. I will recommend Holly and her team to anyone. Choose to be happy.

Our experience talking with Holly was very pleasant. We unfortunately are on a short time frame and we were led to believe that she’d be willing to take the case as long as we paid the very expensive retainer by Friday. She did provide other legal recommendations that may be a cheaper option. They were not able to accommodate the short time frame. So we decided to go with Holly. We proceeded with obtaining the funds so we could pay by the deadline. Just to be called by her receptionist 2 days later & informed that she was at her capacity and wouldn’t be taking our case after all. A day and a half was wasted. We could have been looking for another legal opinion. Very disappointed she didn’t tell us this herself, and wasn’t upfront with us. Instead all of our time was wasted. This left us with even less time to find representation.

My dad set his estate plan up through Tyler Brown. Over time his health declined and I had to take over as his power of attorney. There were some legal issues regarding his business and we need Mr. Brown’s assistance. He did not follow through on what, he was supposed to do and eventually just stopped responding. Very disappointing.

I've known Jenny professionally for close to two years now and have met with her several times to discuss wills/trusts and other legal matters. She cares a great deal for her clients and their best interests. She will tell it to you straight and it's reassuring that there are such compassionate and hard working people in her profession. The law may be blind, but it takes someone that can SEE the best ways to utilize it to help you achieve your goals in the long run.

Double standard. I will not trust this lawyer and her firm (Buckman Mac Donald & Bauer) to lookout for me! Never! Unethical. This firm took my case with passion to help my family, my self and my business from damages and injuries suffered from a well connected Landlord. I trusted them with all of my information, my families and mu business. After a delay in response to a subpoena they issues on my behalf to State Farm, the flipped sides. They stated defending the insurance company they were supposed to go after. Then, soon, they told me they are getting of my case because there is no collectability; however, they claimed they have not heard from the insurance company regarding collectively. So how did they make their decision that there is no collectability? HUh! After weeks of communication with the insurance company, they never came back with any response to me regarding their responds to the subpoena for the insurance information that was over-due. Rather, they insisted on dropping me as a client. They dropped my case a week before summary disposition, prejudicing my peace of mind and my case.

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.
