I highly recommend Attack that Ticket for handling moving violations. I drive fast cars and invevitably get 1 or 2 tickets each year for speeding or whatever. This used to cause me a lot of stress. Now I just e-mail a copy of the violation to Attack That Ticket and send them a check for a few hundred bucks. They take care of everything from there. Although there are no guarantees they always manage to reduce the charge so that I don't get any points on my license. Sometimes they get the charges dropped completely! I don't have to waste time and energy going to court and dealing with all the bureaucracy. Getting tickets is a drag. But whenever I use Attack That Ticket I feel like I'm investing in my peace of mind. For the cost of a dinner my ticket woes are eliminated.

Jeffrey Feinbloom is an outstanding attorney . He has helped both my parents on the paths to citizenship, he has helped me from removal of deportation, to residency and finally citizenship. My family was able to stay united and not separated during the whole 10 plus years process, yes my family has known him for a very long time and he is very accurate, detailed oriented and has a passion for his work. This can be clearly seen in the way he represented my family , because he United us and does not want families to seperate. I am grateful to him and I highly recommend him to handle your immigration case. !

After a life altering car accident when I was just 19 years old, a family member put me in touch with a lawyer who quickly realized the person that should be representing me was Terry, given his extensive experience in this particular field. Terry and his team made this as painless of a process for me as it could’ve been. I’m beyond grateful for the compassion and dedication they exhibited in my time working with them. After my first meeting with Terry I was confident that if anybody was going to get me a fair settlement, it would be him. I’ll be 24 next month and because of Terry I’ll be living comfortably. This is a man that doesn’t back down from a challenge and I most definitely wouldn’t want to go up against him in court.

Have had quite a bit of experience working with lawyers (more than desired). I worked as a Business Manager as well as a Human Resources Manager for well-known and highly respected financial firms, some hedge funds, and a couple of law firms. Not only have I worked with lawyers from a business standpoint, but from a personal standpoint as well. Out of all the lawyers with whom I have worked, I trust him over all others (even at law firms at which I worked). Actually, my experience with lawyers have been borderline horrific (personally and professionally). However, my experience with John Gardner has been anything but .... He listens!!! He walks you through the process. No question is stupid. Even when he charges a flat fee, he is always willing to take the time to explain any question in detail. He is one of a kind (a GREAT kind), and would highly recommend him to any business and more importantly would highly recommend him to any close friend and/or associate.

I have been a practicing attorney in NY for 22 years, but do not handle real estate matters. When I asked three fellow attorneys who I should retain to handle my house closing, I was told that Sam Shusterhoff was the best in Westchester. I can confirm that this was true. Sam was professional, walked me through the process and was available to answer my questions and my wife’s questions at all times from when I first contacted him until we closed and took the keys to our new home.

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.
