I have reached out to Eric regarding a tricky situation. It is very difficult to find an attorney who is specialized in immigration along with other specialties. Once we had our first call, got the sense that he is very knowledgeable and to the point in communication. He explained clearly to me and my wife, the options, consequences, the cost and the trade- offs. He has this 'face of confidence' in his communication that one can be assured of or get that feeling of 'being in good hands'. His reputation precedes him, he is well known among attorneys and at the court. When you are looking for attorneys in his specialties, he is one attorney you can count on! We are very happy with the way he handled our situation/case and very happy with the outcome as well. Will definitely be in touch and approach him for our future Immigration assistance!

I consulted Mr. Pollack regarding an immigration issue concerning a relative. He was fast in determining the pros and cons of the case. He shared his opinion based on his experience, and I could tell he had great knowledge of the law. He did not try to convince me to do something through his office. Instead, he advised me that the best way to do it was on my own. I appreciated his honesty. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Pollack to anyone with any immigration matter.

Before I found Mr. Polak my case was upside down, I didn’t know what else to do because my previous lawyer had told me I couldn’t travel or had to wait a long time to fix my issue, after a first visiting with him he told me all my rights and from there I was able to travel, and keep my status legally presentable till finally I had my victory which I am very thankful for work and dedication.

Ms. Onyeani was a pleasure dealing with. She really made it easy and gave me the relief I needed when I really needed it. She helped me with a very stressful legal proceeding and took over in ensuring I get what I want. She always listened to me, she made sure to give me the option of which direction I want to go while still providing her professional opinion. Ms. Onyeani was very attentive and really treated me like a friend. I couldn't have asked for better representation, she would always be the first person I call if I ever have a legal matter I need help with! Thank you Ms. Onyeani!

I paid Husain A. Gatlin $2,500 to represent me in a simple civil dispute. From the beginning, he was difficult to get a hold of, and even though I only reached out with legitimate questions, Gatlin only communicated through a document uploading website, through which it took several days to get a response. Communication got so bad with Gatlin that another lawyer of mine attempted to contact him regarding vital matters- he and I still got no response for weeks. Gatlin made it clear to me -by actually telling me- that he was tired of this case and had no interest in continuing it. It was such a relatively minor case (albeit very important to me) that he simply lost interest when it started taking just a little longer than expected to reach a resolution. WORSE OF ALL, I didn’t find out until trial commenced (with a new lawyer) that a major point of contention between the other party and me was caused by Gatlin’s carelessness. Part of my countersuit against the other party was for trespassing. It didn’t come out until the trial, when opposing counsel brought it to my attention while I was on the witness stand, that unbeknownst to me, Gatlin had given the go-ahead to the other party to enter my property WITHOUT CONSULTING ME, OR EVEN TELLING ME AFTER HE DID IT. Police were called, charges were filed, trial took place, all because Gatlin, knowing I would never allow the trespass FOR THE SAFETY OF MY CHILDREN, took it upon himself to let the other party enter my property without even telling me he’d done it. As a trial date approached, when he should have been the most interactive, Gatlin completely fell off the face of the planet. Neither I nor my other attorney could reach him at all. Weeks later, I fired him and hired another attorney. Since Gatlin did nothing the entire ten months he “represented” me (other than wear his pretty little bow ties), I filed for fee arbitration to recoup at least a portion of the $2,500 I paid. During the fee arbitration hearing, he blatantly lied several times, and when I proved he was lying, he resorted to insults. If your case isn’t as sexy and exciting as a murder, this is the kind of service you can expect from Husain A. Gatlin. ---------UPDATE, IN RESPONSE TO COMPANY'S COMMENT------------ The panel's questionable decision aside, there's no denying the fact that your carelessness put my children in danger and caused unnecessary litigation. And it's no coincidence that other negative reviews of you have common denominators- your carelessness, quickness to lose interest in cases you're paid to see through to the end, and petulant refusal to communicate with clients.

We were clients of the law offices of Robert J. DeGroot, with Robert DeGroot and Oleg Nekritin as our attorneys. We would like to take this opportunity to tell you what an outstanding job that they did for us in our complex, contentious, and from what many other experts have said, very difficult custody case. From what we have learned, when child custody is being disputed, missteps can be easy to make and are difficult to reverse. For me, a father, to have succeeded, it was essential that smart decisions be made early in the case. The DeGroot team gave us extraordinary counsel from the onset, and gave us a solid understanding of the factors that Family Court Judges consider when determining custody. The smart decisions were made because of these exemplary attorneys. When fighting for our family, we could only select the best, the attorneys at Robert J. DeGroot. They guided us through all flavors of maneuverings from opposing counsel - all the while making sure best interests of my child were served. Not only were these two individual’s complete professionals in their handling of our case, but they both went beyond what we could ever have hoped for. To us they are the meaning behind “For the People.” We consider Bob and Oleg friends of our family for life.

Mr. DeGroot and his firm were thorough, efficient and most importantly effective in presenting my defense. He and his team explored all potential avenues and presented a qualified case to the court. The result was a reduced penalty and dismissal of some charges. Mr. DeGroot was recognized and well respected by the South Orange Court. I would definitely recommend Mr. DeGroot and his Law Firm to my family and friends.

I paid Husain A. Gatlin $2,500 to represent me in a simple civil dispute. From the beginning, he was difficult to get a hold of, and even though I only reached out with legitimate questions, Gatlin only communicated through a document uploading website, through which it took several days to get a response. Communication got so bad with Gatlin that another lawyer of mine attempted to contact him regarding vital matters- he and I still got no response for weeks. Gatlin made it clear to me -by actually telling me- that he was tired of this case and had no interest in continuing it. It was such a relatively minor case (albeit very important to me) that he simply lost interest when it started taking just a little longer than expected to reach a resolution. WORSE OF ALL, I didn’t find out until trial commenced (with a new lawyer) that a major point of contention between the other party and me was caused by Gatlin’s carelessness. Part of my countersuit against the other party was for trespassing. It didn’t come out until the trial, when opposing counsel brought it to my attention while I was on the witness stand, that unbeknownst to me, Gatlin had given the go-ahead to the other party to enter my property WITHOUT CONSULTING ME, OR EVEN TELLING ME AFTER HE DID IT. Police were called, charges were filed, trial took place, all because Gatlin, knowing I would never allow the trespass FOR THE SAFETY OF MY CHILDREN, took it upon himself to let the other party enter my property without even telling me he’d done it. As a trial date approached, when he should have been the most interactive, Gatlin completely fell off the face of the planet. Neither I nor my other attorney could reach him at all. Weeks later, I fired him and hired another attorney. Since Gatlin did nothing the entire ten months he “represented” me (other than wear his pretty little bow ties), I filed for fee arbitration to recoup at least a portion of the $2,500 I paid. During the fee arbitration hearing, he blatantly lied several times, and when I proved he was lying, he resorted to insults. If your case isn’t as sexy and exciting as a murder, this is the kind of service you can expect from Husain A. Gatlin. ---------UPDATE, IN RESPONSE TO COMPANY'S COMMENT------------ The panel's questionable decision aside, there's no denying the fact that your carelessness put my children in danger and caused unnecessary litigation. And it's no coincidence that other negative reviews of you have common denominators- your carelessness, quickness to lose interest in cases you're paid to see through to the end, and petulant refusal to communicate with clients.

Husain Gatlin is probably one of the best attorneys I have ever retained and I can’t thank him enough for being so hands on with our case. He did everything he said he was going to do and he is well worth every cent you spend!! As I have told Husain previously, I admire him and I don’t like lawyers! 🤣 I think that explains it all!! Thank you 😎

I was on deportation proceedings when a friend referred me to attorney Lawrence k Le Roy of the Tesoroni & Le Roy immigration law firm. Mr Le Roy demonstrated an exceptional understanding of the law and was incredibly thorough in explaining every step of the process. What impressed me the most of their(the firm) responsiveness. No matter how trivial my questions might have seemed, Mr Le Roy was always prompt in providing answers and guidance. This level of customer service made a potentially overwhelming experience much more manageable. Fast forward, my court date arrived and Mr Le Roy was there and on time with me. His support was exceptional. His friendly demeanor throughout the entire journey felt reassuring to have someone so dedicated on my side. I can not thank him enough. My case was waived. If you’re in need of an immigration lawyer, look no further than Mr Lawrence K Leroy. I highly recommend him!

I was recently approved for an adjustment status, and I don’t it would have been possible without Mr Le Roy. He was patient, but assertive, and kind, but straightforward. I always felt that I knew what to expect with every appointment thanks to Mr Le Roy many years of experience with the immigration court system. I cannot thank him enough for getting me to a place where so many opportunities opened up for me.

Mr. Le Roy is knowledgeable and dedicated to helping his clients. With twenty years of history, there was a lot to unpack to get our case right. Through his diligence and vast knowledge of immigration law, he was able to determine the key enablers that led to the approval for adjustment of status. This helped us feel confident as we went through the I-485 process. With every step that unfolded, Mr. Le Roy made every effort to remove barriers and advocate for us. He is easy to communicate with and follows through on his commitments. I am so grateful for Mr. Le Roy and all that he did to help us reach this family milestone. Thank you, Mr. Le Roy!

Brooke is simply unmatched. She treats her clients like family and will go the extra mile to secure a legal victory. Her legal prowess and understanding of the intricate nature in which the legal system is structured will not only impress you but sweep you off your feet. The moment you consult her you will know without a doubt that no other lawyer will compare. Her representation during my extremely difficult altercation with the judicial system proved to be the deciding factor in whether or not I would spend the rest of my life in jail. Brooke is a one of a kind lawyer with extremely reasonable rates in relation to her level of professionalism and expertise. Don’t waste your time with another attorney because Mrs. Barnett is by far the best in the business.

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.
