I highly recommend The Hobbs Law Firm which we hired to manage my parents' estate planning for many years. Kevin and his Associates provided exceptional legal support as they aged well into their 90s. They kept my sisters and me (out of staters) continually informed about matters involving Wills, Trusts, Power of Attorney, and Medical Directives. Most recently, they provided incredible guidance before, during, and after the sale of their home during the pandemic. Kevin’s, time, counsel, empathy, kindness, and patience meant the world to us especially during the past six years while dealing with all aspects of our parents’ healthcare and finances. When we count our blessings, we are very grateful for The Hobbs Law Firm’s sincere support and superior service.

I highly and enthusiastically recommend Attorney Kevin Hobbs who we first hired seven years ago. His understanding of elder law, estate planning, and the real estate market were evident from the start. He is a caring, respectful, and extremely knowledgeable attorney. His patience, delivery, and attention to legal detail were always appreciated. Documents and materials were well-prepared and presented in a timely and informative manner. I trusted that Kevin’s advice and recommendations were always in our family’s best interests. Thank you, Attorney Kevin Hobbs, for your guidance and support, throughout the years.

As out-of-staters, we needed guidance and advice on an estate matter in NY. Mr. Hobbs was excellent. He gave us a very prompt consultation and was very thorough and straightforward. He wrote us an excellent letter summarizing his opinion in the matter. Many thanks for a great help to us.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Margo when selling our apartment. We could not be more pleased with the experience. Our family has known Margo for many years and when it came time to sell we knew who to call. Margo Is a true professional. She was always accessible to answer any question we had, and she really listened to our needs. She had our place sold for asking price before we had a chance to list it. I would highly recommend Margo Bohlin to anyone who's considering selling.

My husband is originally from Bergen County in NJ and we began our house search there. We eventually expanded our search to Rockland County in NY and our agent referred us to Margo. Margo quickly became family to us in addition to our real estate agent. Margo made the process fun, her team helped us understand the process fully, especially as first time home owners. She was patient with us and allowed us to take our time to find the perfect home despite our busy schedules. When we finally found the one, Margo was by our side the whole way through, she was a great negotiator, and even supported us during the inspection processes. We wouldn’t want to work with anyone else after working with Margo!

I can’t recommend Margo Bohlin enough! She guided me through the emotional process of selling my late mother’s home with kindness, professionalism, and understanding. From start to finish, she was patient, compassionate, and always had my best interests at heart. She made a difficult time so much easier by handling every detail seamlessly. If you’re looking for a realtor who truly cares and goes above and beyond, Margo is the one to call. Thank you for everything!

Mrs. Rouzard is assertive without being overly aggressive. She handles challenging situations with confidence. While watching her interact with people in Court she seems to be a respected in her field. She excels at formulating and executing strategies. She displayed an unwavering commitment to (me) her client. She clearly understands the purpose, objective and practices of the court system and she used that knowledge to establish a clear goal for the case. Demonstrated strong negotiating skills that kept conflicts from rising. She was very confident when handling my awkward situation. Mrs. Rouzard demonstrated a continuous and diligent effort to the success of my case and I highly recommend her.

With all the negative rumors and reports about attorneys, I feel compiled to give a positive review on an attorney who is deserving of such. About three weeks ago, I called a friend of mine, who is an attorney, to handle a commercial real estate closing for me. He told me he did not practice this type of law and suggested that I speak to Antonio Reda. I called Antonio and decided to retain him. I cannot emphasize how impressed I was with him!!! He handled everything so professionally, and, so fast, I could not believe it. There were some complications, and, he took charge and remedied them in no time. From the time I first called him, to the actual closing of the property was less than two weeks! His charges were extremely fair and reasonable, especially when you consider how fast he handled everything, and, some extra work that was done. I received my copies of the documents and checks by overnight mail. As a businessman for nearly 50 years, I cannot recommend Antonio highly enough. If you are looked for a consummate professional, who will not give you a run-a-round, Antonio is the attorney to call.

I couldn't be happier having Daniella V. Pascaru representing me in my workers' compensation and Social Security Disability cases. She worked so hard making sure I received the all of the benefits I deserve. I've been dealing with NY workers compensation for over 20 years. I had previous lawyers represent me, but they never seemed to interested in what I needed long-term. What sets Daniella apart is her ability to stay focused and see the big picture, and maintained open communication, keeping me updated on the progress and answering every question I had. She was there for me, every step of the way, through one of the most challenging times of my life. Securing Social Security Disability benefits was not as easy a process as I thought it would be, especially during covid times, but her persistence and thorough approach ultimately led to success. Additionally, as my workers' compensation case nears its conclusion, I am confident in her ability and know there will be a favorable outcome. I highly recommend Daniella V. Pascaru to everyone in need of exceptional legal service. Her unwavering advocacy and genuine concern for my wellbeing has made her someone I trust to navigate the complexities of workers' compensation and Social Security Disability law.

Mrs.Gionta is nothing short than an excellent lawyer. She walks by your side the whole process while maintaining professionalism and guiding you to excellence. She will answer any questions you have and doesn’t treat you like just another job. She was with me during the worst time of my life that I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to get through. She pushed me through to win and on pure honesty. She is never short on details when other lawyers did not want to take the time to even listen. She gave her heart to my case and made me feel seen. I can’t say that other lawyers have passion like she does. I would recommend her to absolutely anyone who is in legal need. Mrs.Gionta will always hold high respect to me due to everything she did to help me during the hard time. THANK YOU MRS.GIONTA!!!!!

I never take the time to leave reviews but after the stuff I put my lawyer through she deserves it! I did not know a lawyer could be so compassionate and have so much fortitude. My ex turned out to be certifiable but Maureen walked me through every step with ease. The thing that impressed me the most was that I could always get in touch with her, no matter what time or day. She even responded on Mother's Day! That was the most important thing to me was being able to get in contact at any time. Maureens pricing was also extremely fair, and I was surprised to find she returned the remaining funds of the retainer within a few days of settlement.

What I mean by that is after reviewing your case and evidence he claims to be able to deliver a just solution promptly. Unfortunately the claims and deliverables diverge completely. There are several issues like dropping the ball and refusing to act on your behalf as instructed, and most importantly,he abandons you and your case after reaching asettlement, but way before the opposing party is in full compliance. you are then left on your own to insure that your properrty and rights are handled as per the decree. He also refuses to respond to communications regarding the matter either by phone or email, despite many attempts. Worse yet he claims to not handle certain aspects of the compliance and never gets involved with that. I fing that to be revolting as the entire judgement was drafter and recommended by him , and not only had poor recommendations, but he goes so far as to say that's why i don't handle this. The simple question of "if its so bad or difficult, why did you recommend, advise and draft a document with those exact terms, to only later say I never liked them. Come on now.. everything was done upon his expert recommendations and drafting of the terms. The expression that he "always takes the easy way out and allows his clients to swing in the wind for years " as a result of his action or inaction couldn't be any closer to the truth. I apologize to the people reading this review for running on and being redundant, but I am so angry at the waste of time and money to only be smacked with abandonment. He might be worth a consultation, but i strongly recommend against hiring him and also counting on him despite his many reassurances to the contrary.

Peter helped me through a series of complex family law matters for numerous years, and stood by me every step of the way. What sets him apart from other attorneys in my opinion, is that he gives very realistic advice and legal guidance, and knows the judges, and other attorneys in the court very well, and they know him to be fair, ethical and he's well respected. I would, and have recommended him as solid representation for family court matters.

At first, I couldn’t believe Jonathan Ripps’ words during our initial call because I had spoken to many attorneys, and they all told me it would take 2-3 hearings to dismiss my case. But Jonathan proved them wrong—he got my case dismissed in the first hearing, and it only took 5 minutes! He is incredibly genuine with his charges and went above and beyond to help me, even assisting with the necessary documents for immigration purposes.

Twice I hired Jon to represent me in traffic courts in Ramapo and Monroe. Both times he was able to have the tickets dismissed. He is easy to communicate with and responds quickly to message requests. I highly recommend him.

At first, I couldn’t believe Jonathan Ripps’ words during our initial call because I had spoken to many attorneys, and they all told me it would take 2-3 hearings to dismiss my case. But Jonathan proved them wrong—he got my case dismissed in the first hearing, and it only took 5 minutes! He is incredibly genuine with his charges and went above and beyond to help me, even assisting with the necessary documents for immigration purposes.

How to Check the Credibility of a Lawyer

    Read reviews on legal directories like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to gauge client satisfaction.

    Membership in professional organizations or specialty bar associations can indicate a commitment to their field.
  6. Awards and Recognitions:

    Use the initial consultation to evaluate their communication skills, responsiveness, and willingness to address your concerns.

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.
