After sustaining severe injuries in an accident, Chris was recommended by a mutual friend. Chris visited me in the hospital and although not in the right frame of mind to pursue a lawsuit, he started doing needed investigation for me and my family. Once I began to heal and rehab, Chris and his assistant Aaron Sibley were very professional in eventually filing a personal injury lawsuit against the defendant. I was impressed with the compelling case that Chris presented on my behalf. As a result of the case presented by Chris, we settled out of court with the defendant. I felt the final settlement was fair and compensated me for the severe trauma that I suffered. Thanks Chris and Aaron!

I had been involved in a terrible accident when i was referred to Chris and Aaron by a trusted friend. I was worried because I had never been in a situation like this before, but after my first appointment my worries were met and I was assured that I would be taken care of. Chris and Aaron provided outstanding service and kept me informed every step of the way. I would highly recommend them for any legal needs one may have, they did an excellent job and I would definitely use their services in the future if needed.

I was rear-end accident and the other person's car insurance refused to pay me for my injuries. I called Roy, him and his staff were amazing and took care of everything. I could call or text anytime I had a question and they were always more then willing to answer all my questions. I appreciate everything they did for me. I would definitely recommend them to all my family and friends.

This lawyer and his paralegal Pamela were amazing. They helped me when no one else would. Also referred me to the attorney best suited for my case, and still represented me ongoing because this is the type of lawyer he is. Was given absolutely critical information I needed and was not getting from anyone else. I'm in Fresno, CA and they are expanding out here to the central valley. Based in Tulare County and San Diego, they are expanding and I'm glad they are and hope lawyers like Rory and Paralegals like Pamela keep expanding. Keep contacting this attorney if you need help. He has expertise in so many different fields and will get the job done and has a network of friends that will if he cannot go as far with you. I recommend Rory to anyone who needs legal advise or defense. And his paralegal Pamela is extremely knowledgeable and helpful in every way possible. Don't skip this team of people ready to stand your ground with and for you.

Maureen Enmark!! I cannot even begin to convey how amazingly she handled my case. Not only was her professionalism excellent but her personal caring, compassion and sympathy to my situation was above and beyond what I could have ever hoped for. Declaring bankruptcy devastated me and was the last thing I thought I would ever have to do but a very serious auto accident forced me to do so. The accident was not my fault and left me unable to work for years. I did not know it at the time but I was not to be compensated by the insurance company in anyway until the case settled years later. Calling to file bankruptcy was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. With many tears shed on my side Maureen gently and compassionately stood by me every step of the way. My wife and I thank you Maureen, for guiding us thru a very difficult time in our lives. With absolute confidence, my wife and I give you our highest recommendation. Thank You!!

I filed for chapter 13 in 2019 and I haven't looked back since. Nona is a true professional who walked me through all of the steps and made it so easy. I was so stressed financially and felt like I could never get ahead so that is why I explored chapter 13. Nona was able to help create a payback plan through the chapter 13 process which allowed the $$$ bleeding to stop and eventually pay back what I owed. The stress is gone and I am now 1 year from pay off and I am in a much better place financially then I was before. I cannot thank Nona enough for helping me fix my financial crisis and help me come up with a doable plan. Even though my court case was 4 years ago I have had to contact Nona for things that have come up from time to time and she is always so helpful and genuine with my inquires. If you are up in the air with who to use for bankruptcy, choose Nona!! You will not regret it. She is knowledgeable and you will not feel like just another number unlike some of the bigger firms who turn and burn clients. She treats you like family and will ensure to get you the best possible result so you can stop stressing.

I had a complicated situation, it started out that I filed a chapter 13 bankruptcy, but during the process I was laid off from my job for approximately 6 months during that time Nona checked all my options, and I wasn’t going to be able to meet my monthly payment plan, so Nona helped me change my chapter 13 to a chapter 7, now I’m debt free and was able to keep my house, all because Nona knew exactly what to do based on my situation she was available for every question I had, and she helped me every step of the way. She’s the greatest!!!! Very professional

I was struggling to make ends meet and didn’t know what to do to.  I was fortunate enough to be referred to Bankruptcy Legal Center.  My attorney Nona was amazing. She really cared and treated me like a human being, which let me breathe a sigh of relief and calmed my nerves. She didn’t rush me to file or anything... actually she explored alternatives and waited to make sure I could be qualified before recommending that we move forward.  The whole time I felt like my attorney was looking out for me.  I am happy I found Nona and Bankruptcy Legal Center.  My case went without a hitch and I am now living debt free. I recommend Nona to anyone who needs to get out of debt San Diego.

I was in an auto accident March of 2016 that was 100% the fault of the other driver. I had minor injuries but annoying pain that will be with me for the rest of my life. Tired of being jerked around by the other insurance company for over a year, I made a few calls to see what my options were. 2 lawyers would not take my case due to a gap in medical care because of work travel. They predicted the case would go to trial and they were not trial lawyers. One of them referred me to Mr Babbitt and he took my case. Luckily we settled months before trial and my settlement (in my pocket) was well over 4x the last offer I received from the other insurance company. My only wish was that I would have called much sooner! Thanks Skip!

While going through a very nasty divorce (3 years and counting), my ex took control of my business and stopped paying all debt I co-signed for including community property debt. I was faced with the decision that nobody wants to make.... I had to file bankruptcy. I met with numerous large, medium and small law firms. Most meetings were with either a sales person with little knowledge or a paralegal. Having done my own research, I quickly learned that each time I was given bad advise and pressured to "sign up before it's too late". I came across Brian via Avvo and scheduled a meeting. Expecting to meet with another sale person or paralegal, I was pleasantly surprised to meet with Brian himself. I kept him busy with question after question during a meeting that lasted almost an hour. He never rushed me or made me feel like I was wasting his time. In fact he kept asking if I had further questions for him. He seemed to like the rapid and numerous questions I kept throwing at him. He had answers to the questions nobody else did and knows bankruptcy law inside and out. Some other firms I met with told me I had to have my divorce finalized before I could file. However, Brian was the only one with the knowledge and expertise to get my Chapter 7 filed and discharged. My case was not a simple one as my ex attempted to block my discharge and I had numerous creditors due to my business and assets. However, Yuri and Brian got it discharged with no problem. Both Brian and Yuri are the only attorneys I would recommend. If you have a simple or complex bankruptcy, I would not recommend anyone other than Brian and Yuri. The entire law group couldn't have been better to deal with! Don't waste your time like I did with bankruptcy "mills", sales people and paralegals. I simply can't say enough about how great Yuri and Brian are...... They will take good care of you!

At 60 years old I found myself in the grips of the legal system for a felony. I was nowhere near prepared for the impending situation I was facing and needed immediate legal help. I was referred to Michelle Silva and contacted her right away. Michelle is very accomodating, fair and easy to communicate with. She helped guide me through my crisis and answered all of my questions. She was available and easy to reach at all times. At the end of the day, she went over and above my expectations, but more importantly, she was key in ensuring that my best interests were met, which ultimately resulted in all charges being dropped.

I was unexpectedly served with an order preventing my son and I from moving across the country two days before our planned relocation. I was losing my mind and ended up through blind luck, with Mrs. McKeag as my attorney. From day one she calmed me down, always listened to me rant and rave, and was realistic with me as far as the possible outcomes. She never looked for a way to nickel and dime me and charge me for every possible thing she could have, and above all she made me feel like my son and I were her utmost priority, as opposed to being one of many cases on her plate. She was realistic in what we should and should not do as far as filing motions. There were several times we could have taken a course of action that would have cost me thousands, yet had a very low chance of succeeding. We saw this when the opposing council took this route. When our court dates happened she was always prepared, always solid, and never once was caught unawares. She always took the high road, and always provided solid advice. I honestly believe that if I had not her as my lawyer things could have turned out much differently no matter how in the right I was. She is the sole reason I won my move away case and was allowed to move across the country. She was able to read the judge and adjust her approach to the case on his rulings, and decisions in cases prior to ours being called. I would say this is one of her strongest qualities as opposed to a lawyer who just gets up and reads from a legal pad, or tries to stretch and twist circumstances to fit an altered version. I consider Mrs. McKeag a friend and will never be able to express my gratitude and what a phenomenal lawyer she is adequately enough through words. Her character is beyond reproach, and if I ever find myself in a position that I am in need of council, she will be my first call.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! San Diego Biz law was suggested to me via a random friend I car-pooled with. Me and my wife required the services of an immigration attorney and she recommended San Diego Biz Law. She gave me the personal number of the lead attorney/CEO Mr. Riznyk and asked me to call on a business day. Since we didn't have much time, I called him the next day which was a Sunday while he was having family time and we spoke for several minutes. He could have easily told me to call back on Monday but Mr. Riznyk gave me a free consultation and I immediately knew he was my man. I had spoken with other attorneys before then but none gave me the reassurance and confidence Mr. Riznyk exuded. I showed up at his office the next day and he handed me over to his awesome paralegal Emily Butler. Emily was fantastic! From the get go there was a very professional feel to their services and I could tell this was a great law firm with a reputation for always putting their best foot forward. Mr. Riznyk reassured me losing was never an option and he wouldn't take on a case he wasn't 100% sure of winning. He sure wasn't bluffing. From the front desk ladies to Mr. Riznyk's assistant, everyone was hands-on and buzzing. Over the next few weeks me and my wife worked with Emily and Mr. Riznyk on my case and what happened in the course of our subsequent interactions blew our minds. Emily and Mr. Riznyk came up with a superb brief of multiple-pages that was well beyond our expectations. The brief was backed with excellent legal arguments and know-how and we couldn't have asked for more. It was perfect legal representation steeped in over 30 years of doing this and winning at it. Emily's astute and deft arrangement of the brief and supporting documents left me in awe and utter respect for her work ethic. She then proceeded to send it via FedEx Express delivery at no extra cost to me. If I could give her a separate five star review I totally would. While we still await the outcome of our case, we remain very grateful to Mr. Riznyk and Emily for the sheer quality of their services. If you're ever in need of legal services please do not hesitate to request the services of San Diego Biz Law.

I was lucky enough to find Steven Riznyk in late 2009. I was very pleased with the way he and his firm operate. In 40 years, I have never seen anyone that was so assiduous and punctual. He returned all my calls promptly and usually within a few hours. He was always pleasant and courteous. He is very knowledgeable and conscientious. All of the cases that I referred to him were handled successfully and at a very realistic price. I believe that he only bills for hours worked.

Life meaning immigration process for me, application for a green card on a base of marriage, tons of official paper work and steps ... the process didn't even started and you are already overwhelmed. You know that even one section or answer being missed or not right in the applications and procedures, and your case will go 6-8 months late and can get even more seriously complicated. A friend of mine who had the same situation and process before me recommended to me a lawyer by name Andres. He told me everything best as an experience, something on which I was very reserved, especially when is about lawyers ... just before he recommend Andres I already have very tricky and unpleasant consultation with a lawyer on the same subject. I've decided to schedule consultation with Andres. Andres was kind to give his best and adjust our appointment accordingly my busy schedule. Carefully he check all my paper work, present to me and my wife the whole procedure, we've asked tons of questions which I was carrying on my soul, Andres give his expectations and prognosis about our case, and after that he give us his rate for finishing the case ... something I loved especially too. You will meet Andres, and you will know! No double meaning moments, no tricks, no unprofessional moments ... at Andres you will meet knowledge, experience, patience and understanding for all our anxiety coming from the case. Andres definitely brought order, success, and zero chaos in my life, you will meet steady and CAN DO IT lawyer. By me Andres has also a very good star, I know that that this is little subconscious moment, but Andres simply is special, a lawyer who will add personalized approach to your case, a wonderful human who will understand you and your state, a good person which you will wish to stay your friend for life. If everyone who are wrapped up in immigration challenges could have Andres as support would be lots of nerves saved from being lost. I recommend Andres so strongly, he is above and beyond!!!

Scott helped my fiancé remove his bench warrant for a very low price compared with every other attorney we found, and after 6 additional court dates he turned a 60 day work release into 500 h community service. His total prices were half of what most lawyers were quoting us at for the same outcome. He was always helpful with all of my questions and suggestions and was never rude or disrespectful throughout the entire process. I would definitely recommend Scott as a lawyer. Thank you again Scott!

Back in 2011 I made a mistake and luckily didn't hurt anyone. Scott worked with me and helped me navigate the maze that is the justice system in San Diego. With his help I was able to put this behind me and move forward with my life. I highly recommend Scott, he has incredible communication and never once left me feeling like I made a mistake going to him.

I have known Mr. Norris for over 20 years, and he has been and continues to be a consistently creative, tenacious, and tireless legal advocate for his clients. I have consulted with him on a host of legal issues, and I have always found his perspective to be intelligent, practical, to the point, and ethical. I have often recommended Mr. Norris's legal services to persons I meet who are looking for a qualified and respected attorney to represent their interests. I highly recommend Mr. Norris as an attorney.

Having had to interface with numerous attorneys over the years, I can say from experience as an attorney and a client, that Mr. Norris is a credit to his profession. He is both skilled and diligent providing excellent legal services to his clients. He defended me in a very ugly, contentious, emotional, family estate/trust battle (including elder abuse and fraud claims). He was patient and receptive to my input. He worked strategically to bring the matter to a conclusion and to keep costs under control. I recommend him without reservation.

Mr. Cortez and Ms. Valentine are hands down the most professional and caring lawyers I have ever encountered. From the beginning of my husbands case they were honest, dedicated and truly cared for the well being of all parties involved. I would hire his team again in a heart beat and recommend Mr. Cortez and Ms. Valentine to any of my friends or family members in need of a lawyer. If you want a team who will fight for you and your case, this is definitely the firm to hire to get you results! I can't thank Mr. Cotez and Ms. Valentine enough for all their hard work and loyalty they showed my family during one of the hardest year we've ever had to go through.

John Kennedy from Lee Shome & Kennedy went above and beyond all my expectations, the contracts he’s formulated for me are not only bullet proof, but really a work of art. The attorneys who receive contracts from Kennedy always compliment (although it doesn’t come out as a ‘compliment’ lol) the level of detail and precision in his work. The fact that he’s on the younger side makes him really tackle a job to fullest extent, nothing goes unnoticed and everything is iron clad down to the littlest details. Going forward (until his rates go up) I will always if possible use Kennedy for any business contracts I have nothing but high praise for this attorney, which is while I’m so compelled to leave this feedback for him.

This case involved a highly visible commercial property wherein the tenant abandoned the property literally in the middle of the night owing substantial rent to two property owners who were related to each other. Tim had to navigate through this mess representing only one of the property owners (me), which most lawyers would avoid like the plague. Instead, Tim handled it all with a cool head when family drama rivaled anything I could have ever foreseen. Not only did he become my own personal mental health expert, he negotiated some amazing results with a high profile, multi-national company who ultimately bought the property. This process took over two years and never once did Tim waver in his support of my future finances and nearly daily contact with a sometimes raving maniacal client (me). You're not going to find anyone else who is even close to Tim Tatro's talent.

Because of Avvo reviews and the noted track-record of Tim Tatro, my wife and I consulted him for legal perspective re our living situation. Although a major part of the legal knowledge we had sought and gained from him was challenging, we came away from the consult with knowledge of how to find solutions. And we came away knowing that, should it be necessary, we would most certainly return to him. We found him to be organized, calm, caring, clear and concise. No wonder he has such fine reviews!

His personal involvement was instrumental in a complete payment with all interest. Without his consistent solid approach we would not have been able. After trying for several months without even return call, Mr. Tatro had this completed within a month. He kept us informed and gave us our options we went for it and we could not be happier- great job. He has also helped us on just business planning. He is clear/efficient and to the point.

Shortly after we did our trust, my mother passed away and we asked Adam to help us with her trust. He made a very difficult time easy to do.

How do I evaluate my lawyer, Steve McKinley? Let me count the ways: Steve is an excellent communicator. In speaking, as in court, Steve is authoritative, assertive, polished and confident. In writing, in legal documents, Steve is an excellent wordsmith. I can't define what makes a good writer, but I know it when I see it. Steve's writing skills make boring legal docs come to life. A good lawyer takes care of the details and deadlines-lets me sleep at night free of worry. A good lawyer is emotionally invested in my case. A good lawyer truly has my back. A good lawyer is like the team captain. Steve is all of these things and that's a comforting feeling. What about the question of big firm vs. small firm? Freeland McKinley & McKinley is a small firm. However, you never feel isolated from the legal mainstream. Steve is very active professionally; always interacting with other lawyers. He has partners to bounce ideas off. And, of course, in this case, having a wife, Karen, as a partner is a real advantage. And then add an excellent paralegal, Melody, to the mix and you have a well-oiled machine. So, you can tell that my wife and I are happy clients. It's difficult to try to appear not too biased when that's exactly what we are. We like our lawyer!

Mr. Malloy works very well with clients, who due to their age or condition, are sometimes difficult (and crochety).

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.
