First time I had ever gotten pulled over, it was for reckless driving. I decided to make Andrew Flusche my attorney, which was very worth it. He was able to completely dismiss both of my charges. I will forever recommend him to anyone needing a great attorney!

Andrew was amazing! I had gotten a reckless driving ticket going 83 mph in a 55 mph zone, also a seatbelt ticket and a “failure to display decals”ticket and just to add to it have a CDL license. Not only was Andrew able to drop my reckless driving ticket dropped down to a “faulty equipment” ticket,which is a non-moving violation. All other tickets were dropped. He went above and beyond my expectations. He is without a doubt the best attorney in the area. Hire him and he will be worth every penny.

Mr. Andrew Flusche, as a newbie to speeding and traffic court, the whole process seemed overwhelming. As in my 50 plus years of driving, I typically set cruise control and all is good. On December 25, a series of mishaps occurred, which landed me in the hot seat with a VA State Trooper. The Trooper was spot on for doing his job, he was as I expressed to Mr. Flusche, professional and nothing the Trooper did was incorrect. I did some on line research and realized that I needed legal representation to navigate the legal system and given the fact I am also from Florida, I contacted Mr. Flusche Office the day after Christmas. Dawn answered the phone and took down my information, and gave the comfort of knowing that the case would be handled. Later that day, Mr. Flusche contacted me, my nervous were on edge, stomach was a knot, Mr. Flusche calmed me down, and told me steps that I could do and things I needed to do to assist him in clearing the case. I did as Mr. Flusche requested, on line driving school and volunteer hours(which is common as a retiree, I volunteer a good bit). Anyhow, Mr. Flusche contacted me a few days later and had the arraignment hearing waived and the court date set to appear. I completed the on line school and had 20 hours of volunteer hours and scheduled for more after the hearing. The day of the hearing, Mr. Flusche arrived calmed my nervous and said he was going to do some discussions with the Trooper and Prosecutor. Mr. Flusche a few minutes before the start of the cases, gave me the options that we had and said, it was going to be okay. The Judge called our case, and Mr. Flusche and I walked up, Mr. Flusche explained the circumstances and what I have done and my history of driving with no interactions with law enforcement in all my years. The Judge agreed with Mr. Flusche and the case was dismissed. Mr. Flusche is a good attorney – he if very knowledgeable of the VA Traffic Court, he knows based on his experience what he can ask for and what he can’t ask for based on the client. Mr. Flusche and his staff are extremely understanding, professional and are there to help. I would highly recommend Mr. Flusche law firm to any one who has the unfortunate circumstance of landing in VA Traffic Court.

Was in a tough situation, felt lost, and was really nervous. William Neely is a man you can trust in. Who better than a previous DA to represent you. Mr. Neely was alway patient and assuring in this tough time. He was patient and very knowledgeable. Best attorney to have in your corner. Got me exactly what I asked for and was prompt! He’s the guy you want on your side. 5 Stars isn’t enough. Thank you Mr. Neely

Heather represented me in a custody case. She felt overwhelmed by the opposing attorney and asked me to sign a document one day before court releasing her from representing me. She made no mention of any refund on the $10,000 retainer already paid. I refused to sign the form. She showed up in court and brought all my documents. Then she told the judge she couldn't represent me, shoved the box of paperwork toward me, and left. She's not someone you can count on.

I hired Heather for a civil case. She gave great council before during and after the entire process. With her on our case, we were well informed of everything ahead of court. She answered all our questions and helped us choose the best paths to take to meet our goals. I highly recommend her. Her prices are very fair given the knowledge and determination she brings.

DO NOT HIRE. I never for the most part take the time out of my busy schedule to write reviews but this is one exception I will make. This will be bit of a read but believe me you will be happy you came across this while looking for an Immigration lawyer to hire. At first when my wife and I needed to find a lawyer to handle our case to get her Spouse Visa I called many different lawyers and I was not confident in any of them as I was with Phil Mirarchi. I was genuinely really happy when first speaking with him, and he sounded really knowledgeable in this very important process which would change both of our lives. I would later on really be disappointed in having hired him to handle our case and you will too if you hire him. . I can't explain how tiring and upset I am because I honestly felt I would of done a better job ourselves. With the lack of communication, negligence, and apathetic care in the case there is no way I could ever refer him to anyone. With such an life changing process if you really care about your loved one please look elsewhere because this is NOT the lawyer to hire. We did not get reimbursed or even a partial refund for all the issues that were caused, and that's ok. We did learn our lesson and I hope you too don't get suckered in and suffer the same heartache we went through dealing with Phil Mirarchi. This has really negatively impacted both of us and now we are left with the damage already being done. BEWARE... out of a rating of a 5 I would give him a .5/5 because he did make a good impression in the interview. Went down hill after that. ..

Indeed, it is with a heavy heart i write to you in such a solemn manner. It has come to my attention that Mr. Bates has indulged in the unimaginable, shenanigans. During his early years as a steel worker he incited and actively participated in various shenanigan-esc activities including but not limited to, narcotics, exploitation, human enslavement, world domination, and revoking of basic human rights in adolescents. God save the queen.

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.
