The day I walked into Matt's office for the first time for my personal injury appointment almost never happened. That day I had just received my accident report from state police and it stated that I was responsible for the tractor trailer driver's accident. I was in an accident on I91 and suffered cervical spinal cord damage. I was shocked to read that on the report because no ticket was issued. Matt was very easy to talk to while explaining my side to him--his positive and reassuring attitude was calming. By the time my appointment ended, Matt was my counsel and not only did I have a chance--he ended up over time negotiating a settlement on our terms! I can't say enough about his experience and expertise! I 100% recommend Newborn Law for anyone needing legal counsel for personal injury!

I chose Kathleen based on her reviews here on her website when I had no idea who to turn to or who to trust. I promised her when everything was settled that I would add to her long list of positive reviews as a way of giving back to her and to help others who face similar challenges. Kathleen has been an advocate for myself and family in every sense of the word. She walked me through each step and literally stayed by my side with the kindness and care I needed the most. Her exceptional law experience and knowledge saved us a considerable amount of time and money. I highly recommend Kathleen O’Donnell.

In September 2024, I received notice of a professional ethics complaint against my medical license before the New Hampshire Office of Professional Licensure and Certification (OPLC). I retained Attorney Doty and her team to represent me in what was essentially a civil ethics matter. By November 2024,Attorney Doty had successfully negotiated a settlement that preserved my professional standing and left no significant marks on my record. Throughout the process, Attorney Doty was exceptionally helpful, maintaining clear and consistent communication. She promptly returned my phone calls and emails, keeping me up-to-date every step of the way. More importantly, her and her team's careful handling of the case ensured the matter was resolved within the terms of her initial retainer, reflecting both efficiency and cost-effectiveness. I am grateful for the outstanding service and outcome delivered by Attorney Doty, and I would highly recommend her to anyone facing a similar professional licensing challenge.

Susan Lachman recently represented me and I could not have been more pleased with her. I am in Houston and my case was being heard in New Hampshire so you can only imagine a scenario where there is late information and miscommunication, but there was none. Susan and her assistant Krystal kept me informed of changes and abreast of any and all happenings by the court and my ex-wife's attorney. When the proceedings were over I felt that the outcome was fair and reasonable. I would certainly recommend her to others.

I am so grateful to Charlie Donohue for the support he provided to me during a recent auto accident. My injuries were not visible - it was emotional and caused an increase in anxiety as I attempted to get back to driving (especially in the are of interstate where the accident happened). Charlie walked me through recovery - because that was what was most important to him. It wasn't about making money - it was about getting me back on the road and working through whatever was causing this anxiety so I could resume my daily routines. I am now driving with confidence and owe it to Charlie for his caring and compassionate care of ME. Thank you so much.

The law firm of Wyatt and Assoicates did a fair job guiding me through the process. I would like to see a little more communication between client and lawyer as this would help obtain better understanding of what the client was going through to project a better understanding. The office staff communicated effectively and kept me informed of any meetings that I had to attend.

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.
