I've had a delightful experience with Mr Edward J. Martin, Esq. and his assistant Luisa Colarossi. They helped me tremendously with estate planning, after the death of my husband. They took time to, not only answer questions, but to give me a wide range of options that I did not know were available. Another wonderful surprise was their prompt response to emails I sent. I highly recommend their services! You won't be disappointed!!!

I was a single mother trying to maintain primary physical custody of my young son and Kurt Mausert failed to make that happen. He actually basically gave the father 50/50 custody which is still effecting myself and my son to this day. I would say if you are a mother looking to hire a lawyer for a child custody case to steer clear of hiring Kurt Mausert.

I am so pleased with all of my dealings with Attorney Kurt Mausert. He has an impeccable work ethic, tremendous compassion for those who are in need. He is sincere in his words, thoughts and correspondence. It is rare to meet someone who is this easy to talk to, understands your predicament quickly and fully, offers invaluable advice and is a decent, genuine nice guy! Any legal situations that may come up for me in the future, I know the only lawyer that I can really trust and that I have confidence in is Atty. Kurt Mausert. I feel very confident in his approach to the law, his empathy for others and his strength is his decency and integrity. I will tell all my friends and co-workers about his superior abilities in the law.

We were recently represented by Brian Lee in a motor vehicle accident case. We couldn't have asked for better representation. The level of professionalism was outstanding. With that level of professionalism came compassion for the person being represented. The staff that worked with Brian was equally at that level as previously described. Courteous, prompt and knowledgeable when contacted. As stated earlier, better representation could not have been acquired.

They recently helped me with a speeding violation, and the entire process was seamless from start to finish. Gerard V. Amedio and his team were incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and made what could have been a stressful experience much easier to navigate. What stood out most was their clear communication and dedication. They took the time to explain all my options, kept me informed every step of the way, and ultimately achieved an outcome far better than I expected. If you’re looking for a legal team that truly cares and delivers results, The Law Offices of Gerard V. Amedio is the way to go. Thank you for your expertise and support!

Mr. Richard DeVall helped me through a difficult divorce. He was caring, friendly, and highly professional. He was easy to reach by phone or by just walking into the office. With over 30 years of experience, he seemed to know divorce law and family law better than most. He did special research for my case, and did an appeal for me, which I won. He was good with communication and he made me feel confident about my case. My first consultation with Mr. Richard DeVall was free and confidential. I was looking for a divorce lawyer whose office is discreet and quiet. Richard DeVall fit the bill. He has since helped my son with traffic tickets. I would go to him again if I needed advice. He practices all kinds of law. I highly recommend him.

I have the best custody schedule in Clinton County, He was able to make sure that both myself and the baby were protected, they got me a 3 year order of protection against the child's father and were able to get the visitations supervised every other Saturday at Family Connections. I was very happy with the family atmosphere that they provided. Michael made the process so easy for me, all I had to do was provide him with all the facts and with that he was able to get me to what order I have today. The prices are fair and I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a good attorney!!!

John has been hired to assist with the distribution of a trust and real estate transaction. Is there a "bedside" manner for attorneys? If so John has it. Calm, professional, thorough. Explains complex scenarios so that they are easily understood. Gives broad spectrum of "what ifs" that might come into play. We couldn't be more pleased to have him by our side during a difficult time. We highly recommend John Mannix Jr. and are grateful to have been referred to him.

I've had a delightful experience with Mr Edward J. Martin, Esq. and his assistant Luisa Colarossi. They helped me tremendously with estate planning, after the death of my husband. They took time to, not only answer questions, but to give me a wide range of options that I did not know were available. Another wonderful surprise was their prompt response to emails I sent. I highly recommend their services! You won't be disappointed!!!

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.
