Regarding Mr. Phillips and his Assistant. The lady and the lawyer are unprofessional. The woman was very rude and falsified information regarding my phone number. I expressed my concerns in a civil manner and she became very defensive and hung up on me. She then admitted another number was on file but tried to claim she never said there was never an additional number. I would not recommend this place and the lawyer never took the time to see they changed my phone number and never returned my call. He sent a letter telling me to do the case myself and without a lawyer.

The Moses law firm took my case despite having circumstances that weren't really in my favor. Prior to hiring them to represent me, I researched several other firms that handle personal injury cases, but the reviews for Moses law firm convinced me to give them a call. I spoke to Mr.Moses and was very impressed with his genuine interest in my circumstances as well as his positive personality. In the midst of my case being handled, a close friend was in an accident and because of my interaction with this law firm, I immediately referred him to them and thus far, he's happy I did. I'm pleased with my settlement and would refer them to my family or friends without hesitation.

We contacted the Law Office of James Steele for help with a family member's time sensitive court issue. Within the hour, the incredibly helpful office practice manager had secured an attorney who could be available to take the case right away. We did not know Ms. Henderson before, but the way she attended court and expertly and professionally engaged with the judge, prosecution, and officers, showed her ease and skill in that arena. Every authority in uniform in that courtroom was actually happy to see her. She is clearly considered a professional in high regard. I was surprised at the excellent outcome she was able to secure for my family member. She was calm, kind, and reassuring. While I hope to never have occasion to need an attorney in the future, if we do, Ms. Henderson will be my first call.

I found Virginia Employment Law online and reached out to schedule an appointment. The office manager was kind, courteous, and professional and gave me the guidance I needed to set up my appointment. The process was simple and I was able to schedule an appointment well within my necessary time frame. I met with attorney Strelka in person (my choice) and received the information needed to address my concern. He followed up afterwards and offered additional assistance if I need it. This was an all around great experience.

Life happens and sometimes you need to hire a legal team- the best of the best. Tommy and his team are extremely knowledgeable about the law and your rights. He’s going to be confident, honest and direct.He’s very kind and treats you with respect. The energy of his staff is positive all around. I will never forget how they made me feel— like they cared and my situation mattered. They are intelligent attorneys and the communication is strong. This team knows how to break down the law in ways you can understand. Be patient- things don’t happen overnight. It’s a process. The firm is gorgeous too!

We came to OPN law for a custody battle and they were honestly the biggest waste of $2,500. Mark Kidd simply didn’t listen to ANY of my husbands requests or concerns. He didn’t fight for him at all. He couldn’t even be bothered to have a court date changed when we said that wouldn’t work for our schedule because we wouldn’t be in town. My husband had to bail on plans to be in court when we had our plans for 6 months or so in advance. He didn’t call or communicate at all. Please please please consider a different attorney! I highly recommend Debbie Bono but sadly she doesn’t do family court. I will never recommend this firm to ANYONE.

Absolutely not. I hired him for my child custody case. He lost my case which should have been a cut dry case. He came unprepared to court and to my surprise, hadn't done any research on my case at all. He took my 2k and just showed up and lost my case horribly. I was embarrassed he was my lawyer and I that I had paid him. I appealed the decision hired a real attorney at over a little 3k and got the job done right. I'm testimony to this fraud of a wolf. Do not hire him unless you want to be robbed. He is a joke! Should not be practicing law. I could have represented my case better. My ex's lawyer literally laughed at the easy win. It costed me more money but my children are worth it. Never give up even after a wolf like this rob you.

Patrick McGraw was literally heaven sent! I had been battling a nasty custody fight with my child's father for 10 years! After 5 lawyers, 4 guardian ad items and $6,000+ later...NOTHING ever got ruled in my favor. I'm a single mother with limited financial resources. I needed a 'NO NON SENSE" type of lawyer who would not only listen to me but take me and my dollar seriously! Patrick is also organized, knowledgeable of the law and has experience! He did not waste anytime on my case! He filed subpoenas and other court documents ON TIME! He kept it real with me at all times regarding the details of my case. Regardless of how ugly it was, he was HONEST! He worked with me when it came time to pay him. He didn't try to 'price gouge' me or make it about money. When I first hired Patrick, by the time I explained to him what was all done to me and how my son was suffering as a result, Mr. McGraw already could see through what was happening and how I got 'railroaded'. This Lawyer has the discernment and experience to see through foolishness! Again, this is what makes him a 'no-nonsense' lawyer. As a result of his assertiveness and doing his due diligence, I FINALLY WON A LONG AWAITED CUSTODY BATTLE! It was a breeze!!! I wish I would've known about him years ago, because I know that I wouldn't have had to go through so many horrible lawyers. If you want a lawyer who will stand up for what is RIGHT & FOR YOU?? CALL PATRICK MCGRAW!!! He represents what a TRUE LAWYER IS!

Melvin Hill is currently representing me in a case, I am very disappointed. He is not aggressive and every prediction he has had about our case has been false. He seems to non nonchalant about the outcome of your case. His prices our fair but it is worth it to spend the extra money for an aggressive attorney who cares.

I just read a settlement agreement for a friend that was drafted by Lucas & Kite PLC that had what I consider egregious misstatements about the workers comp victim’s termination. On the phone they said it was an agreement for back pay, but in fact it was an agreement that cut off financial responsibility for the medical care she still needed. I was shocked that upon being told she was wrongfully terminated, they quickly drafted an agreement stating she left of her own accord to seek employ elsewhere, which is totally false. Then they pressured the claimant to sign it quickly. The claimant was not born in this country and felt pressured to go ahead and sign, not truly understanding what it said. I feel bad that my friend’s situation was misrepresented and that she was pressured to sign quickly by the representatives. WATCH OUT for documents offered by Lucas & Kite, take your time and get a legal understanding of what you are signing. Don’t let them misrepresent your situation and cut you off from your rights to receive medical care to heal your work related injury. I’m not a lawyer, this is my personal opinion. I don’t respect this law firm for these reasons.

    Membership in professional organizations or specialty bar associations can indicate a commitment to their field.

How Much Does a Lawyer Cost?

  • Fee Structures:
    • Hourly Rate:
      Lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on experience and location.

      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.
