I had Bryan Cameron represent me in court throughout my case, he helped me understand what i needed to know and had to do everytime in court. From calling him any day of the week just to ask a simple question to go over the case for the following court date. When Bryan is not around his secretary Nora is always there with all the knowledge necessary and ready to help. Also Bryan is very accommodating when it came to making payments, always very understanding knowing one can struggle with financial obstacles. I have to thank Bryan and Nora for taking their time through my journey. Worth every penny.

Will came highly recommended by an attorney friend of mine. I consulted with Will for a separation agreement. He was patient, empathic, and provided excellent advice without any pressure. It was obvious during our conversations that he loves his work and is truly interested in helping people. I am planning to hire Will to handle my case, he has extensive experience, he is tenacious when advocating for his clients, and understands the importance of building relationships. I know I will be in capable hands!

Will has been my saving grace. I went through numerous attorneys and have gotten nowhere settling with my ex in family court. Will is educated, fierce, honest, makes himself available for you, and really cares. He has become more than an attorney to me and I consider him a friend. He has always done what is in my child and my best interest. He really makes you feel good and that he totally has your back and is on your wide 1220 percent. He has a lot of connections in the court room and court system as well which is really helpful. It doesn’t matter if it’s a weekend or 1am if I have to contact with with an emergency he makes himself available for me and my child. I couldn’t ask for a better attorney and friend and I highly recommend him if you are in family court for any reason at all. We are preparing for trial and I know With Will in my corner I feel confident and prepared and ready to win.

I had a misdemeanor class A assault charge against me along with a restraining order a few months back. I was extremely worried that this would ruin my life and career. Daniel was very professional and supportive, he was assertive and prompt and got my case dismissed and sealed so I could move on with my life. He answered any questions or concerns I had. Great bedside manner and genuinely cares about his cases, I would highly recommend him.

My daughter was hit by a car in front of her school. As the driver was negligent, I chose to sue. She & I went for a consultation with Elke and immediately felt comfortable with her. She was professional yet empathetic to what happened to my daughter. Once Elke started working on our case, she got things done quickly & efficiently. My daughter & I feel Elke did a wonderful job. When we needed to go see her, she always chatted with my daughter and asked her how she was doing in school and what she was doing for fun. I liked that she felt that personal connection to my daughter. I highly recommend Elke and if I ever need an attorney for this type of situation, I’d call Elke without hesitation.

When it came to navigating the complexities of selling my co-op, finding the right real estate attorney was crucial. Ms. Hingle made this entire journey feel like a breeze. What set Ms. Hingle apart was her remarkable ability to communicate. She patiently guided me through every step in a way that anyone could understand. The closing day was also a stress-free experience, thanks to Ms. Hingle's meticulous organization and expertise in real estate transactions. She truly went the extra mile to make everything efficient.

I was referred to this law firm for assistance in getting a pool trust established for my elderly mother. Valerie McKenna assisted me in this matter. She was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and very friendly but most importantly kind and considerate. From start to finish she handled all the paperwork and expedited their preparations. It was the smoothest and quickest situation ever. I am very grateful for her help in this matter. I highly recommend this law firm and especially the expertise of Valerie McKenna.

I'm a fairly busy real estate agent and have worked with many attorneys. I have been working with Sal Cataldo for several years now at this point and I can say that he is single handedly the most knowledgeable, responsive, and effective attorney I've had the pleasure of working with. Protecting and furthering his client's highest and best interest is always his top priority. He's left my clients happy every single time.

I couldn’t have been happier with the service, professionalism, and care I received from Valerie Shivers and Caryn Brown. Caryn was on point every step of the way for securing Medicaid benefits for my in-laws. I would highly recommend them for anyone’s elder care concerns!

Valerie Shivers came through for my family during a very unexpected and stressful time. She was very prompt in reaching out to us, very compassionate during our situation. We can’t thank her enough for her wealth of knowledge and guidance. She was always readily available to meet with us to answer any questions we had. We also used her firm for a real estate transaction that went smoothly. Everyone at Shivers Law Group is extremely knowledgeable, and professional. We have recommended Valerie to friends who are very thankful.

Mr. Gallo is an exceptional court appointed Family Court lawyer . He is caring and he has good rapport with the judges . His problem is he lacks the support staff to confront white-shoe firm highly paid attorneys .. and he shoulders a huge court-appointed caseload . I hired Mr. Gallo privately at white shoe firm lawyer rates .. but unfortunately received court-appointed attorney level service . Because of his huge caseload , lack of support staff and casual attitude I lost where my facts should have won had the lawyerly effort on both sides been equal .

"DO NOT HIRE" She is the worst lawyer you can get. She will tell you that she's on your side and then coerce you into getting her money. She will keep asking for money by telling you that you will loose your case. She was hired for a custody case and said it shouldn't be long. We have been battling for 6 months and I wasn't even married to the father. The father has no job and no way to care for the child and she would not fight for me. When I told her things that happened during a visit she just told me don't say anything because we don't want to provoke the judge. Nothing was done for the best interest of the child and when she was let go she went to the court to try and sabotage my case. She is not a helpful attorney at all. When you call to talk to her about the case she starts telling you her life story instead of talking about what the next steps should be to fight for the client.

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.
