Over the past five years, I’ve had the privilege of working with Tim Kenlan and the team at Berman & Simmons, and I can confidently say that they are exceptional in every sense of the word. Tim's empathy, dedication, and deep expertise have made an immeasurable difference in my life. From the very first meeting, Tim treated me with kindness and respect, making me feel like more than just another client. He has a straightforward approach that inspires confidence, and his ability to explain complex legal matters in an understandable way is remarkable. What truly sets Tim and the entire Berman & Simmons team apart is how much they genuinely care about the people they represent. Every interaction made it clear that I mattered—not just my case, but me as a person. Their consistent support, tireless effort, and unmatched professionalism have been invaluable. I am so grateful for everything Tim and his firm have done for me. If you are looking for an attorney who will truly fight for you while treating you with the utmost compassion and respect, I cannot recommend Tim Kenlan and Berman & Simmons enough.

I found myself one day needing legal aid to defend myself against charges of domestic assault, represention for divorce, and shared custody of my 3.5 year old child. Jennifer was referred too me by a friend. I meet with Jen, and felt from the start she was someone I could put my future in her hands. Jen had her work cut out for her because my now ex- wife had put togather a case against me to bet all cases. My assault case was dissmissed. My fight for shared custody went thur all the typical paths that one parent may take when trying to prove to the courts that another parent is unfit to have shared custody.Which included my child seeing a counselor at the age of 4 and 5. During my fight for custody I had asked Jen to do something that is most often frowned upon by the courts. That was to have my child be put on the witness stand in front of the judge, Presiding over my custody and divorce case. Along with many other factors in this case I strongly believe that the meeting of my child and the Judge showed the court how wrong it would be, and how much it may affect the way this child's life may have turned out had my ex gotten what she wanted. Jennifer fought for Shared Primary Residence, and won this for myself and my daughter. My daughter is 14 now and remembers everything that took place during the 3 years it took to get this case resolved. She does great in school. And has been playing basketball year round for 4 years now, she is in the 8th grade her grades are great, also does track.She has a life that would not be as it is had I not had a Lawyer that went the distance with every issue she could to prove the truth and get all the facts out for every one involved in my case too see. In the end I would not ever want to go through that mess again but if ever I had to I would want Jennifer Ferguson, to be repenting me in court. I always recommend Att. Ferguson to any one needing the best. I could never repay her for what she did for myself and my daughter. Like most Attorneys probably are she dosen't like to be personal with a client, but I know she has a heart of gold, and once in awhile she shows that great smile she try's to hide while doing her Job.

I met with a couple of lawyers prior to hiring Jennifer to handle my motion to modify case for my divorce judgment. Unlike the other attorneys, Jennifer offered candid advice during our first meeting and described to me what my options were and the best case scenario could be. She gave honest, frank, and realistic advice and feedback during the entire process and was very easy to work with. On several occasions the defendant in the case attempted to steer mediation discussions off topic and Jennifer turned the conversation back to the pertinent issues. If you are looking for no nonsense, honest, and thorough counsel, I would highly recommend Jennifer Ferguson from Fales and Fales.

Jennifer and her staff are amazing to work with. There is nothing that gets by her, and if you want results in your case Fales and Fales is definitly worth checking out. As stated in the subject line; you dont need high priced commercials or gimmicks to get results, this is a small personalized firm that treats you the way you deserve. Could not ask for any better because it just does not exist.

I had an initial consultation with Meg this morning, and I could not be more pleased. She is honest and direct, explains things thoroughly and respectfully, and helped me plan the first steps towards a resolution for my probate concerns. She cited new local laws to help my cause (proving that she stays up-to-date) and was familiar with the opposing firm's members (she has a solid local reputation and network). I feel very confident in Meg's skills as a Maine Estate Attorney, and would highly recommend her services.

I was searching for a lawyer and came across a few who told me outrageous prices and I wasn’t comfortable with them based upon conversations I had with them. I keep looking and came acrosss Donald he was hands down the best lawyer ever. He beat a drug trafficking case with 7 counts of trafficking. Just when me and my family gave up hope he helped us stay positive and did his best and his best was great. If I ever need another lawyer I will definitely go to him first. He showed he cared about my family and myself. He listened to the cries he didn’t take our frustrations personal. He promised he would help us and that he did! This man is the best lawyer I have ever come across. I got my money worth out of him I actually think I got more than that. He always said it wasn’t about the money it was about bringing my family back together and that he did. There’s no way I can pay him but and I can’t thank him enough but he’s appreciated. Donald you are the BEST

I was facing very severe felony charges including multiple class a aggravated trafficking charges, gun charges and a a few others... I believe it was a total of 7 charges all of which were felonies. The trafficking charges alone held a mandatory minimum of 4 years. I had a lawyer that at tre beginning that was not doing anything for me as far as advocating and trying to get me the best possible result. Then I switched to Attorney Hornblower.... best decision I ever made. Not only did he work he’s on my case, he went above and beyond. He met with the DA numerous times to talk about my case, he gathered numerous letters from people on my behalf to give to the DA, he allowed me to call his cell phone on weekends when I absolutely needed to, and he actually cared about making a difference for me. I wasn’t just another case number on his list. Every single case he has is a case that he puts his all into and does everything he possibly can. He ended up getting the trafficking charges that held the mandatory minimum dropped so I was only sentenced to 16 months in and probation when I got out. With good time that’s only a year. For the charges I had.... that deal is an absolute miracle. In addition to his hard work he never failed to give me words of encouragement which meant so much to me. If I ever need a lawyer in the future, Don is the person I’m calling without a doubt.

Over the past five years, I’ve had the privilege of working with Tim Kenlan and the team at Berman & Simmons, and I can confidently say that they are exceptional in every sense of the word. Tim's empathy, dedication, and deep expertise have made an immeasurable difference in my life. From the very first meeting, Tim treated me with kindness and respect, making me feel like more than just another client. He has a straightforward approach that inspires confidence, and his ability to explain complex legal matters in an understandable way is remarkable. What truly sets Tim and the entire Berman & Simmons team apart is how much they genuinely care about the people they represent. Every interaction made it clear that I mattered—not just my case, but me as a person. Their consistent support, tireless effort, and unmatched professionalism have been invaluable. I am so grateful for everything Tim and his firm have done for me. If you are looking for an attorney who will truly fight for you while treating you with the utmost compassion and respect, I cannot recommend Tim Kenlan and Berman & Simmons enough.

I received a call at my place of employment from an employee of this company and I left my shift in tears. I haven’t been spoken to in such a demeaning and belittling way in some time- that is why I am writing. I was schooled by this person about how to run a business and that not answering phones will be cause for people to look elsewhere. While I whole heartedly agree with the principle, it does not take into account that a person showing up to their job and who makes no company-wide decisions - is not an appropriate contact to put down (let alone harass). I work very hard and despite the insinuation of this person, I am not stupid; I simply have no control of staffing or volume of calls. This is not the first person I’ve encountered from this firm that has exhibited a concerning moral compass. I’m cheering everyone on to be represented adequately and fairly- so I’m not writing this to express hatred (we all have our moments, me included). I just want to share my personal experience as I know that those seeking legal advice and representation want to feel informed and secure in their endeavors.

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.
