It was my first time buying a house and I am not familiar with the process. Real estate agents will tell you one thing, the bank another, but with Heather Parker you get the facts explained clearly. Heather Parker took the time to explain every line, every charge and all the little things to look out for with the inspection and buying process. She was so quickly respondent, I was already recommending her to friends before my closing. Of all the money I spent on my purchase, only my attorney was worth more than they got paid.

I have had the pleasure to work with Heather on many real estate transactions. She has assisted me in representing both buyers and sellers. She always provides the very best service to all involved in the transaction which is crucial for the deal to run smoothly all the way to close. Heather goes above and beyond to meet client needs and provides guidance every step of the way. I know that once I send the contract to Heather for her review my clients are in excellent hands. What makes Heather stand out is that she truly cares about the people she is helping. Therefore, I enthusiastically recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent attorney for any of their real estate needs.

Mr Boston took my case on extremely short notice, he had less than 1 full business day to prepare for my court appearance monday morning. Not only did he put my worries at ease stating that he would help me but he was able to properly and effectively represent me on such short notice. I 100% recommend the counsel of Mr Boston and his associates and if I ever am in a similar situation again I will absolutely be using his services again no questions asked. Very respectable, very helpful, and extremely diligent. Cant thank this man enough.

We hired Mr. Boston to fight 2 speeding tickets that my son received. He did a great job! He explained everything thoroughly, he would return calls promptly, and when he had to go to court and extra time, he didn’t even charge us extra. I would definitely use him again!

Very nice and professional man! I would recommend him if you are looking for a lawyer.

I got a class b misdemeanor last year, and I was referred to Dean by another lawyer. Dean was amazing he handled everything for me and he got my class b misdemeanor down to supervision and he was able to present my case without me being present since I couldn't get out of work that day. Easy to reach and answered all my questions and concerns. If I ever need another traffic lawyer again I will definitely hire Dean again. The pricing was really affordable too which was a plus! Thanks Dean!!

I hired Mark Bishop LLC after consultation with 2 other firms and I am very happy I did. My case was a relatively small personal injury case and in the initial consultation both Mark and Andrew took the time to explain many details and answer all my questions. During the process I mostly consulted with Andrew who was in frequent contact with me to explain legal maneuvers and advise on strategy regarding settlement/trial. The process took over a year but resulted in a successful settlement above expectations. The communication throughout was excellent and I highly recommend Andrew, Mark and the staff.

Ms. Haskins Becker and her team put my mind at ease from our first meeting and consultation. She took the time to answer all of my questions, and there were many, and I immediately felt confident in my decision to retain her firm. A divorce is never an easy process, and I had specific requirements and requests that she always respected and honored. If I had known that I could have gotten through this process so painlessly and within 7 months, I would have probably acted sooner. I would highly recommend Katherine and her team.

Mark Schneid of Law Offices of Mathys and Schneid is an outstanding lawyer! I had the pleasure of hiring Mark to represent me in my case. I hired Mark right before my statute of limitations was set to expire on my motor vehicle accident as I had hired another firm to represent me in the beginning, that law firm did not work out well for me forcing me to discharge them at the last minute leaving me scrambling to find a law firm to represent me. I’m extremely grateful Mark came highly recommended by a friend of mine, after my initial consultation and discussing my case with him, I knew at that moment Mark was the lawyer I wanted and needed to represent me. Mark and his team got right to work and was able to file suit before my statute of limitations was set to expire. I was involved in a life altering motor vehicle accident several years ago leaving me with a torn rotator cuff, spinal cord injury, the onset of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, PTSD, and anxiety related issues. I can honestly say Mark brings a compassionate approach in dealing with his clients, he truly cares and it shows! Mark was always there to answer any questions in a timely manner, he and his team kept me informed on the status of my case, and Mark always wanted to make sure I was doing alright. I witnessed Mark’s experience in the litigation and negotiation process first hand with the defendants lawyers, Mark was outstanding! He was very aggressive and fought extremely hard to maximize the compensation that I deserved. If you are looking for excellent representation for your litigation needs, please consider Mark and his team and obtain the best and most aggressive representation as I did. I highly recommend Mark Schneid of the Law Offices of Mathys and Schneid.

“I was struck by a car while cycling and severely, almost fatally injured. A team of excellent medical professionals performed complicated and extensive surgical and medical procedures as part of a successful effort to restore my health. In the midst of all of the pain and effort associated with recovery, I had to shop for a personal injury attorney. I was looking for a respected professional to handle my case and ensure that I not only recovered appropriate financial damages to cover my medical costs but also compensation for pain and suffering. Mark Schneid was not the only attorney I talked to, but he was certainly the best. Upon interviewing Mark I knew immediately that he would not only represent me and look out for my best interests, but that he also cared about my recovery and the successful outcome of my case. Mark is a passionate, bright and hardworking professional with excellent knowledge of personal injury law. His vast legal knowledge, trial experience along with medical and insurance industry knowledge quickly and efficiently guided us through the process resulting in significant risk mitigation and a positive case outcome. His easy going style and articulate communications puts everyone at ease and provides him with a clear advantage in negotiations, while his meticulous approach and attention to detail ensures that nothing is overlooked. During the time he represented me, Mark repeatedly proved that he was knowledgeable, experienced, honest, ethical, and committed to my cause. Most importantly, his negotiating skills made a huge difference in our financial settlement. Everyone on the Mathys & Schneid team is a pleasure to work with, especially their paralegal Carrie King. Carrie’s research and investigative expertise was invaluable to our case. Her excellent communication and writing skills ensured that I stayed informed and up to date and her attention to detail guaranteed that nothing was inadvertently missed. Mark and his excellent support team really came through for me. He is just the kind of counsel you want on your side… knowledgeable, personable and tenacious.

As an attorney, there are a few attorneys that I have come to rely on when it comes to referring cases to. Most attorneys, including myself, do not practice in every area of law. But, that doesn't mean we don't want anything but the best for our clients when we cannot help them with a particular matter. I have come to know Mark through a fellow attorney. At the time, I did not know any attorneys to refer my clients who had personal injury cases or were in need of an attorney to handle a medical malpractice case. When I met Mark, I knew he was the right attorney to send these cases to. I was impressed by his knowledge of the law and the practical nuances that come with years of experience. Mark is not only personable, he is also a bulldog in Court. He knows how to get results for his client. He is also highly respected in the legal community. Mark is also one of the finest trial attorneys I have seen in person. He understands how to present a case in way that people can relate to, no matter how complex the issues are. I highly recommend Mark to anyone seeking an attorney for a personal injury case or a medical malpractice. In fact, I only recommend Mark to clients in need of such services because I know the clients will be in great hands. Mark and his office staff are diligent, responsive to client inquiries and absolute magicians in Court.

Background: a life insurance company was holding up our lump sum payment because of some technicalities. Another lawyer thought that we may need to fight the insurance company in federal court, which would be expensive and time consuming. That's when we decided to meet with Elizabeth. Thanks to Elizabeth's experience (and the support of her talented team), they were able to get this matter settled in just two weeks! Based on her negotiations with the insurance company, we didn't have to A) settle the matter in federal court, and B) pay the insurance company's legal fees, which they were seeking. We were thrilled with the strategy, service and results provided by Elizabeth and her team. Thanks again!

If you want a dependable and experienced lawyer that knows the ins-n-outs of the legal system, Dan Cummings is your man. He comes prepared and makes his clients feel at ease in stressful situations. He will prepare you for what to expect, make sure that you understand all relevant information pertaining to your case, explain your choices and outline the possible outcomes. Dan is also easy to reach and personally responds to phone calls, emails and texts in a prompt manner – something that isn’t the case with every lawyer. He is compassionate, easy to talk to and truly listens to his clients. Watching him in the courtroom, it’s obvious that Dan is a master of his craft, has a deep understanding and knowledge of the law and appears to be well-respected by his peers and other officers of the court. Dan is an effective litigator and an overall nice guy. He has my highest recommendation for anyone in need of a fantastic criminal defense attorney.

He believed in me, researched cases similar to mine and was very honest about the possible outcome. He appears to be well-liked and respected by judges and his peers that I have met through various meetings. There are no games with Dan. He is a great guy and attorney.

I'm quite young and inexperienced in legal matters so after days of searching for an employment lawyer that wasn't trying to take advantage of my inexperience I luckily found Seth. I don't believe i could've gotten luckier. He was extremely helpful, understanding, and professional. He did a great job listening to my situation and transforming it in his own words on paper, EXACTLY as I wanted. I couldn't be happier! You'll be in good hands with Seth.

As a 21 year veteran Realtor in the western suburbs of greater Chicagoland, I have worked with Cavanagh and Garcia Associates on many occasions. Martha generally handles the real estate side of the transaction with James Cavanagh handling litigation, wills, trust and other avenues of law. Martha is responsive to my own and to my clients, along with great follow up. I know my clients are in good hands when I refer my clients to Martha Garcia for their real estate transactions. They have said their experience with her was very satisfactory and would recommend her as well. One client respsonse: $187K House Buyer (Closed) Jul 2, 2014 Martha was very helpful throughout the home purchasing process. Thank you Martha! I only recommend service providers I trust and provide the same level of service my clients have come to know me by.

This guy is the Best criminal lawyer you will find. He is reasonably-priced and honest with his clients. I offered him a certain amount of money to begin with and when all was said and done he gave me back a refund because we finished so quickly. He got me off with 1 month in jail for what could have been 7 years for me in prison. He is the type of lawyer that if u shut up and let the man do his job you will get the best results possible. Thank You Scott, Bruce B.

Scott helped me through a sensitive municipal zoning challenge. His knowledge of the municipal code and his ability to explain complex issues to a lay person was done very efficiently and in a language that I could understand. It was a pleasure to work with him and his firm. As a business man who uses attorneys frequently, I was very impressed.

I have posted before while my case was still ongoing and today I received my just due! I received a check for the bonus previously unpaid from a former employer. I again want to praise Joe Urani and John Kreamer for taking my case and seeing it through. I highly recommend anyone at the very least consulting with Joe and John. They are very honest and trustworthy which, let's face it, aren't qualities many lawyers possess. I would work with them again in a heartbeat.

Joe Urani and John took my case when others wouldn't. I have a contractual agreement with my former employer they are not living up to. From day one I felt John and Joe were in my corner. My previous experience with lawyers was not as pleasant. They have been up-front, honest, more than fair and informative. I would recommend Joe and John to defend me in any situation.

I was referred to don through someone with similar circumstances, met with him, and he told me the facts of where I stood. I signed on with him, and he took care of my case responsibly, and kept me well informed throughout the whole case. I would recommend to anyone in need of a good, skilled, and knowledgeable injury lawyer. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again. Thanks again don.

I am still working with Mr Fabbri in the case against a nursing home, and I couldn't not at this point be more pleased with his performance of moving forward TO bring justice to what happened to my mother (who lost her life) as the end result of being a resident in a nursing home facility. Those folk at that nursing home did not care about my mother; and has proven historically not to care about any resident that is entrusted to care for those who can not care for themselves. I am so impressed with Mr Fabbri because he shows that he does not let any grass grow under his feet. By that I mean, he works diligently to prepare the case in a timely manner and exudes passion for his job as a Lawyer. Even though the case is still in progress, I am confident that I will soon hear Mr Fabbri say that the case has been won and my mother will be vindicated (at least I, her daughter, who is left behind to just hold on to the precious memories of her will be).

How to Check the Credibility of a Lawyer

    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.

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.
