I am an engineer with an idea. I knew very little about patents and the process and we are a micro entity. We were treated every step of the way like we were an important client even though we were not a high dollar client. All of our many questions were answered and answered in plain English. I am continually amazed that we found such a wonderful firm with wonderful attorneys that I now consider my friends. I love calling them my Chicago thug lawyers who can protect my idea since the firm is based in Chicago.

As my title suggests, Justin is a really great lawyer! I recently went through a divorce with included the custody of my two young children. I am sure you can imagine this was not an easy time for me. Being the father, and with my children both being so young, I was extremely worried I would be forced into minimal custody. Justin was always calm and was quick to answer my questions and reassure me that was not going to happen. He was always there when I called and he helped me through this difficult time. He was not about to give up on me or allow me to give up on myself and he diligently stood for what I wanted. In the end, I received much more custody than I was originally offered and the opportunity to try for more when my kids are a bit older. Although I will never get as much time as I would like, which is seeing them everyday, Justin's help was invaluable during the case and I cannot thank him enough. I would recommend Justin, along with anyone at his firm, to anyone I know who may be going through the same issues. It is a tough time for everyone involved and it definitely helps having someone like Justin on your side!

There hasn't been a moment in the last year when I ever questioned if Andrew was working hard for me, Andrew has not only worked hard for us, but with us, accepting suggestion, giving suggestions, collaborating with me the whole way. He listens, He is not prideful, He is compassionate about each of his client's troubles and will give you 100 percent of his effort. I know his heart is for us and that is why I chose to stay with Andrew Rawlings. He knows his skill, He works well with others, he searches for knowledge and information he might not know so much about so that he can be the best attorney he can be for his clients. I trust Andrew with the future of our family. Being where I am today, there is no one else I trust more to help me fight for that which I value above all else. Thank you Andrew.

We had unforseen delays in obtaining some of our needed paperwork for our bankruptcy, due to a less than compliant previous employer. Things became so complicated our council dropped us. We appeared in court as prepared as the circumstances allowed us, with no attorny and appealing Pro se. Mark was willing to speak with us before hand, technically he was our opposition. Much to our surprise he worked with us to find an amenable resolution. The amount of gratitude I feel for helping, and stepping in on our behalf, when he was technically supposed to oppose us, is something I can't fully express. Thank you for seeing people behind the situation, and not forgetting that something you're professionally trained for and probably see as routine, is likely the most terrifying thing the average person has ever been faced with. I will always recommend Mark first, to anyone needing legal council, in his specific preview.

I needed a firm that could help resolve claims from injuries sustained in an accident. I found the team at C&J to be responsive, thorough, professional, and of high moral standards. With the help of C&J, I was able to resolve these claims favorably. The individual who led the team at C&J was William Hansen.

Skye Lazaro has helped me resolve three potentially devastating life challenges, with favorable outcome. I never would have guessed I would be faced with these events, as most people believe that they will never need a criminal defense attorney. Skye is who you want to call if you ever find yourself in this sort of predicament, as I am certainly glad I found her when I did! She is knowledgeable, level headed, logical, calm and collective, where a stormy sea of emotions exist. Whenever anyone asks me if I know of a good Defense Attorney, I recommend her. I was amazed at how Judges, fellow attorneys (including the prosecution) gave her respect and gratitude within the courtroom. She is obviously well liked with years of skill, knowledge and experience with navigating through Utah's laws and courts. Warm and effusive professionally, she gets down to business with confidence and assurance. Skye Lazaro has shown me she is a 'Courtroom Wonder Woman', as she is the only Utah Criminal Defense Attorney you want by your side when the prosecution comes after you!

Peyton Robinson was the most efficient and informative toward my case. He has several years of experience. I am confident in his representation, particularly because he is a licensed and experienced pilot. It is important to emphasize, he is a well rounded professional. I contacted Peyton Robinson for a flight school related case. In this case, my goal was to recover the remainder of a purchased flight time block. With the information I had received: better rate advertisement on same aircraft and question of the legality of agreement, I was confident in disputing this matter with Peyton Robinson. His research, experience and representation was professional. I am very grateful to have found him in Utah. Any pilot in Utah, who desires representation on an aviation related case or FAA enforcement action related case, I highly recommend Peyton Robinson. Peyton Robinson is a professional. He is humble, friendly, and has affordable rates for aviators. Overall rating--definitely top representation among Salt Lake City lawyers.

We were a software start-up in need of complex (to us) legal and business advice to ensure our software IP would be protected. We needed a firm that would "teach us" the why and not just the what. Mike walked us through the process of protecting our IP in the US and abroad and provided us the pros and cons of each step, as well as the financial and legal impact of each decision. Mike and everyone at the firm were responsive and willing to spend the time helping a growing company ensure its long term viability.

Lincoln Hobbs was recommended to me by another lawyer so I contacted him when I was most stressed by an employment dilemma. I was able to see him within 24 hours of contacting his office. During the one hour meeting with him, he provided a path forward and before I even got home from the meeting, he had prepared and emailed a draft letter to me that would ultimately be sent to my former employer. Even though I was completely overwhelmed by my situation, Lincoln always remained calm and provided the most excellent service. He kept me involved in the process and provided options for me at every decision point. When it finally came to mediation, Lincoln very patiently sat with me for 10 hours and kept me in the loop of his every move and strategy. Not only did he exude professionalism and knowledge of his practice, he was conscious of how stressful this was for me and tried to keep things light and friendly. In summary, I would hire Lincoln for any legal trouble that I may find myself in. He was honest, professional, and very cost effective considering how much time he spent with me on the phone and in person. Lincoln defies the typical attorney reputation and I was and am proud to have his representation,

Lincoln is very intelligent and he doesn't let anything slip by him - he never misses a beat. I recommend him, as he's the absolute top in his field. He's a fantastic attorney!

It is an honor to recommend Lincoln Hobbs, a member of Hobbs and Olson LC, as well as his entire firm. I have been actively involved with many aspects of the legal system since 1977 and find him to be an ideal attorney; preferring to negotiate a settlement when advisable, yet extremely skilled in the courtroom if necessary. At the onset of our relationship he researched the other party to determine the viability of my case in an effort to save me money and personal anguish. He has since repeatedly demonstrated this balance of personal concern and professional skill, while maintaining high moral standards in what is a very dirty legal battle spanning over many years. And even though I was initially the defendant, the other party’s case was quickly dismissed, and I received a multi-million dollar award, as the defendant and counter-claimant.

At that time, we already felt like we were getting an awesome attorney but now that we've seem him fight for us, we have NEVER been so confident that we truly have someone else fighting their hardest to help us w/ our best interests in mind!! Today was a big/long/hard/interesting day to say the least but it was also a very emotional & day! I have NEVER before seen an attorney fight so hard & from the heart until today! Michael Banks is the most sincere, honest & understanding attorney/person I have EVER met in my life!! He fights for the innocent little people against the huge insurance companies that like to bully & push people around! Today, Michael Banks showed us EXACTLY what a good, kind, caring & amazing attorney does when his client is being pushed around & intimidated by the opposing big insurance company!! Geico was trying to bully my husband & make him feel like his past was about to alter what he deserves until Mr. Banks stepped in & shut Geico right down! If you need an attorney that honestly cares about you genuinely from his heart, Michael Banks is the ONLY attorney I've ever met/seen actually fight for you & what you need & deserve!! WE THANK YOU, MICHAEL BANKS, FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS FOR JUST BEING YOU!! You are the most amazing, kind & best attorney we've EVER had the pleasure of coming across & dealing with!

On Wednesday April 12, 2017, my fiance & I had a consultation with Michael Banks regarding a car accident we were involved in back in June 2016. I called Mr. Banks at 3:30pm & explained a little of what happened in the accident. His response was very sincere & he told me the rest of his afternoon was free & he'd love to talk to us in person. We were in his office by 4pm meeting with him personally. Not just a paralegal or assistant... The actual attorney! We also met his assistant Annie & she was just the sweetest thing EVER! They both were very caring, sincere, thorough & wanted to right the way we were wronged! We were not only wronged due to the accident but also by the attorney we previously hired. Mr. Banks was very empathetic & understanding! He felt we had a good case & need less to say, before 5pm we were signing the papers hiring Michael Banks to fight for us! He made us feel like we were very important & we felt like we had ALL his attention on us & what we had to say! We didn't feel rushed, he didn't interrupt us once while we were talking, & he made us feel so confident that he was fighting for us & wanted to fix what someone else messed up. He also made it very clear that we are more than welcome to pop in any time we feel necessary or just want to say hi. Unlike most other attorney's who are arrogant, rush you out, interrupt you & make cold comments! I cannot say enough good things about Michael Banks as an attorney & a person! Then there's Annie... She is such a sweet, understanding, genuine, wonderful woman with a heart of gold! She seems to just have this ora about her that can make anyone feel comfortable with her! I would recommend Michael Banks to absolutely anyone & everyone! Thank you Mr. Banks & Annie for caring & we look forward to working with you!

I called for a consultation with Marlon Bates, ot expecting much. I was having troubles trying to figure out my options and routes needed for adverse possesion/heirship/ect. He gave me 3+ more ideas options than ANY other real estate attorney in Utah! He was extremely thorough during our call, explaining everything and answered ALL of my questions (even though many sounded dumb coming from a young woman in her 20s). I guarantee this: If I EVER need a real estate attorney, he is the FIRST on my lost. Honestly, I feel like I owe him $400 just for his free consultation!

Attorney Marlon Bates went above and beyond in advising me and drafting an agreement to modify and modification to easement for my house purchase and I'm 100% sure I would not have been able to go through buying my first house without his help. This was my first every need for an attorney, so I found Marlon through just the regular online search. After sending inquiry to over half dozen attorneys I found, Marlon was the very first to respond with immediate availability. He spent more than an hour on our consultation call, providing more than I was hoping to learn and get advice on the my easement situation. He left on a family vacation the week after but he was still very responsive to my questions and when I decided to move forward with the house with only left few days till diligence deadline, he was able to provide me with the perfect agreement and easement modification draft that I needed to close on my house with a peace of mind. In addition, he was able to clearly outline the risks and the steps that I needed to know and take to fully implement the contract and the modification. Buying my first house with easement issues was a very scary decision and I would have never gone through buying this house if it wasn't for the reassuring consultation and the contracts and modification drafts that Marlon provided. I would go through this all over again with his help. Ultimately, I ended up with a better term on the house and more favorable modifications to the easement than I would have initially accepted on the house.

I brought a very complex problem with a small but multi-million dollar LLC to Mark and he and his staff have been excellent at working though all the details. They have fought aggressively when needed but negotiating when possible. He always gave me good advice even when I didn't want to hear it. We were able to avoid litigation and stabilize our company even with Crazy partners involved! Mark and his staff have become trusted advisers on every business deal!

I've used Ben on 2 different occasions. He is quick in accessing the pros and cons of possible legal directions and was accessible and returned my phone calls even on weekends. He is a very intelligent person that conveys confidence which I find to be very important especially when dealing with opposing lawyers. I always felt that Ben was genuinely concerned for me and my situation which I did not find with past lawyers I have used. I highly recommend him.

I just reviewed our final Trust Book and all the documents Andrew, Erica and his office staff prepared for us. It was unbelievable how well organized and self explanatory it was. The whole process and experience of redoing our trust was positive and amazing, We couldn't be more pleased and feel so confident that our affairs will be taken care of. It was the best decision we have ever made to go with Andrew. His paralegal, Erica is outstanding. She was with us every step of the way and took care of every detail. In addition, they were both a delight to work with. I could go on and on, but if you are in need of an attorney, I wouldn't hesitate to hire Andrew and his staff.

  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.

    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.
