On June 20, 2024 I met with Attorney Robert Manchel to address my questions about filing for chapter 7 bankruptcy. Mr. Manchel was very attentive and pleasant and answered all my questions and concerns . I hired him the next day. During the bankruptcy process Mr. Manchel was always available to answer my questions through texts, phone and emails. He explained everything I needed to do and all information I needed to supply. He also told me step-by-step what would happen during the several month process. When it came time to address a judge I met with Mr. Manchel in his office and he helped me through the Zoom hearing. He kept me calm and guided me through the hearing. After the filing was complete- and during the waiting period- Mr. Manchel was always available to supply me with advice and information. On October 28, 2024 Mr. Manchel contacted me through email, letter and phone that my bankruptcy case had been successfully discharge. He then went on to advise me to what I needed to do in the future to help restore my good credit. I would highly recommend Mr. Manchel to anyone who finds themselves in the position I was in and has to seek bankruptcy to help them get back on steady financial ground. Mr. Manchel works each case by himself so all of his attention is focused on each individual client. He speaks to you with respect and care and consideration. I felt confident with him as my attorney. I do not wish anyone to be in the stressful financial situation I was in. But if you do find yourself in need of a good honest kind Bankruptcy Attorney I recommend Robert Manchel 100%

"Thank you" these days seems so small for people like you. As lost and confused as I was in a situation I had no idea how to handle, the first law firm that came up was McOmber & McOmber when I finally searched on google. I called and Tiffany Yacullo was the first person I spoke to and when I tell you, this young lady made sure I was informed, very patient, very supportive, very kind, on point and very respectful. I couldn't have asked for anyone else to represent me. Both Tiffany Yacullo and Christian McOmber were two strangers who worked hard and stood by me and stood firm on law as they represented me with everything they had on my case. I'm slowly starting to gain myself back to who I am. I thank God so much for trusting people when I was in a space of not trusting anyone. I highly recommend McOmber & McOmber law firm. Thank you so much for all that you do. I really hope something magical happens to you both for all that you do for people like me. Stay well. Again, Thank you.

McOmber, McOmber & Luber was the best decision I could have made as they are true professionals and highly dedicated to their craft. They were quick to respond and steadfast in their approach to finding a resolution. The team is always friendly and extremely easy to work with. You want a firm that will do what they can to alleviate your stress, and they do exactly that. They were very diligent, passionate and professional in their approach to my legal issues.

I was very privileged to have Adam Starr represent me in a very complex and personal case. It was a sorrowful and emotional time that brought me to Adam. His thorough review of the case was apparent on the very first visit. What sets Adam apart is his compassion and ability to bring the best expert advice to the case. That was my experience with him. It was clear that he not only researched the case but that he consulted additional experts before making recommendations. He kept me up-to-date, providing answers to any questions. I would highly recommend Adam to others seeking a trustworthy, kind, caring attorney. My sincere thanks to Adam.

Mr. Nugent provided me the best representation on several occasions with different criminal cases. The relationships he has built over the years and level of respect he receives in an out of the courtrooms is something I've never seen or witnessed before. He works hard for his clients best interest! If secured early on, a pre-indictment deal might be something to explore. One way or another, one of a kind and I highly recommend attorney Mr. Chuck Nugent Esq.

I was under the impression that shock occurred when something very bad happened to you, such being rear-ended by an inattentive driver who took out my trunk and backseat and could very well have taken out me. Did I deserve a settlement? No question. Circumstances, pictures, and an eye witness made that clear. None-the-less, a medical complication could have obscured the facts and made a just settlement tricky- and it was. I wasn't very hopeful. But when I went to Mr. Nugent's office-a place where you are treated like family-to pick up my check and saw what he had accomplished, I amazed myself that I behaved calmly, I thanked him and then drove directly, and ever so carefully, to my bank, having learned that shock can also occur when something very good happens to you.

My intentions were respected, and although I hope to never again repeat the experience, would engage no one else.

It was truly an honor to have Attorney James M. Clancy to represent me with my Workman's Comp Injury that I sustained at my work place. Once I was introduced to his law firm and contacted Mr. Clancy he immediated setup a consultation meeting with me to go over the injury that occured on my job. He immediately started the ball rolling by instructing me on each step that I had to take to get my injury taken care of as soon as possible. He directed me to a doctor that would examine the injury and make sure I would get the proper treatment, to which surgery was needed to help correct the problem I was having. Everytime I needed to talk to him, he made himself available to me. If he wasn't available when I called he would make sure to return my call if I had any concerns. We shared information constantly. Everytime I had a doctor appointment, surgery that was needed, various treatments or therapy it was documented for my lawsuit. He handled my case very professionally and made sured he kept me informed about how everything was going with my case. He fought hard to get me compensation for my pain and suffering not once but twice after my case was reopened do to continued suffering from my injury. I truly would recommend Mr. Clancy for others to acquire his legal services when their injured on the job.

Mr. Newman once again is representing me in a matrimonial matter. Mr. Newman is quite a respected and caring attorney. Mr. Newman takes a personal approach while making his client such as myself feel most comfortable and confident. Mr.Newman being quite versed in matrimonial law is an understatement, as well as other areas of law. He personally returns each and every call in a quick and precise manner. Mr. Newman has worked diligently in order to satisfy every step within my case and let me also communicate that Mr. Newman is an outstanding trial attorney within matrimonial law.

Almost two years ago, I began researching attorneys for my husband as I knew we would be trying to make a huge family decision for him to become primary custodian for our three beautiful step children. I had posted questions on avvo in the past in an attempt to gain insight on our situation and some sort of direction with how to approach such a HUGE request of the courts. In one of my last posts, Scott (he's huge on developing a level of comfort with his clients/families) responded in such a thorough and inviting way, that I had to make contact with him. He was extremely accommodating, as my husband and I live states away, and allowed us to have a FREE 30 minute consultation via phone conference. He appeared to be genuinely concerned, was very thorough and detailed in his responses to our inquiries and the entire time was very realistic about what we would be looking forward to. My husband and I, almost immediately following our consultation decided that he would be our attorney. During this entire time, he has been nothing less than amazing. He has been compassionate, understanding, HARD WORKING, diligent, thorough and always remains available for communication. If you are searching for a lawyer that will fight for his clients best interests and the best interests of the family, you need to search no further. Inviting Scott to join us on this extremely emotional ordeal, was the absolute best decision and we have AVVO to thank for that connection. I would recommend his services, 100 times over. Could we have chosen another attorney? Yes! Would it have been in our best interest? No! Thanks Scott, our family is appreciative of the passion you share in not only being an Attorney but a true Counselor!

After discovering my husband's family failed to disclose to him important literary rights he was entitled to and after talking to firms who saw years of litigation punctuated with dollar signs, we hired Megan Knowlton Balne. She was forensic in her research, a tough negotiator, stuck to the budget and timeline and delivered a settlement we can live with. Given the nasty nature of family matters, she structured the payment of royalties through a neutral party. One never wants to be in such a difficult and emotionally-charged matter, but should the need arise for a great attorney, we would retain her again in a heartbeat.

On June 20, 2024 I met with Attorney Robert Manchel to address my questions about filing for chapter 7 bankruptcy. Mr. Manchel was very attentive and pleasant and answered all my questions and concerns . I hired him the next day. During the bankruptcy process Mr. Manchel was always available to answer my questions through texts, phone and emails. He explained everything I needed to do and all information I needed to supply. He also told me step-by-step what would happen during the several month process. When it came time to address a judge I met with Mr. Manchel in his office and he helped me through the Zoom hearing. He kept me calm and guided me through the hearing. After the filing was complete- and during the waiting period- Mr. Manchel was always available to supply me with advice and information. On October 28, 2024 Mr. Manchel contacted me through email, letter and phone that my bankruptcy case had been successfully discharge. He then went on to advise me to what I needed to do in the future to help restore my good credit. I would highly recommend Mr. Manchel to anyone who finds themselves in the position I was in and has to seek bankruptcy to help them get back on steady financial ground. Mr. Manchel works each case by himself so all of his attention is focused on each individual client. He speaks to you with respect and care and consideration. I felt confident with him as my attorney. I do not wish anyone to be in the stressful financial situation I was in. But if you do find yourself in need of a good honest kind Bankruptcy Attorney I recommend Robert Manchel 100%

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.
