Divine and Joseph treated me fairly and with so much respect. They never judged me for my circumstances . I was given an unfair charge following a domestic dispute . I was given a voice and they fought for me . My case was dismissed all due to their hard work. I can’t say thank you enough to you !

This truly has to be the BEST criminal defense attorney association in Tucson Arizona hands down. THE FEDERAL KING IS KATSERELLIS LAW! I hired Kat on day 1 after a free consultation and he devoted so many hours of his time to me and I was able to go over my entire case with him and explain to him how the previous attorney I have was neglecting me and not willing to cooperate with me on anything within the interest I found best fit for my case with my brother. so within 48 hours I had an answer on a Plea, within 9 days got a plea agreement, within 1.5 Months with Kat’s word given was able to get me to court to begin the process to finish my case, and in under 90 days was able to successfully execute and close out a 6 month incarceration that was potentially looking at 33-41 months maximum. Kat is the most well respected individual, COMMUNICATION IS THE KEY TO HIS ATTENTIVENESS and he is ALWAYS ON CALL 24-7! Kat has THE MOST KIND HEARTED paralegal that works with him and her name is Jasmine. She was always on call and answering me any time I needed her to. Jasmine is so organized with coordinating anything Kat needed throughout my case and the best part is their a dynamic duo and were able to dominate my case for me and make sure we all were successful within the outcome. Kat and Jasmine know how to be patient when it came to any emotions that got in the way throughout this case because of how difficult our prosecutor was. Every single time I texted or called one of them answered. They always emailed me anything I asked for, and never once did they say No to me. I always was given anything I needed from the both of them. Truly I thank them from the bottom of my heart for executing this case and helping save my brothers life. Kat and Jasmine both helped get my brothers life back and help me get my life back on track with so much support because they knew how difficult it was for me to balance an incarcerated brother while also having to be on the outside free world and make sure he was okay at the same time. I told Kat that a miracle would happen at our sentencing and that’s exactly what happened, a time served miracle thanks to Kat! The level of intelligent, integrity, loyalty, respect, and authentic work ethic that this man has is BEYOND BEAUTIFUL. KATSERELLIS LAW FIRM IS THE BEST LAW FIRM IN TUCSON ARIZONA! God forbid if anything ever happens again, Kat is on speed dial and will be retained immediately. I trust him with my entire life till the death of me. God bless this law firm for everything they did to save my families life.

My husband and I, a gay couple, engaged Beth Kruchek to do our wills and related documents this fall. Making personal decisions about wills is probably never easy, but Beth certainly guided us in the way right for us, and made it as procedurally easy as possible. She asked the right questions, answered our questions, both helped us meet our time constraints and met them herself. Even her office was conveniently centrally located! Beth was an absolute joy to work with, and the list of superlatives about our experience could go on and on. Imagine our surprise when we received the invoice for services rendered, and found it more than reasonable. We are more than happy clients, and unconditionally recommend her to our friends and anyone needing her estate planning services.

My wife and I just needed to a reinstatement of our out dated trusted from another state. Former home and beneficiaries had changed. We went through two different law firms in Tucson before finding Beth. Our estate is simple all we needed was a couple changes ; home and beneficiaries. Firm 1. had us sign a ridiculous legal contract, charging us $3,800.00. Stung us along for over4 mos. in wasted meetings.Firm 2. Wouldn't even talk to us unless we signed a contract with a $250.00 retainer, and a cost of $3,200. Beth took my phone call and free consultation meeting. She is very proficient, kind, and listens to you needs. Doesn't try to push you into something you don't need. Gives good advise of the law, and makes you understand it in laymen terms. Doesn't over fill your head with a bunch of " legal terms" that are totally confusing. Highly Recommend .

Of all the attorneys I ever worked with- this individual was one of the most helpful individuals I ever met in my life., I am a physician - I had a problem with an administration playing games that are not uncommon in Tucson. Hardy understood the problem even after my meandering attempt to explain the problem. He was able to see the problem clearly and took the appropriate steps to get the problem administration- to understand their behavior was unprofessional and was inconsistent with their own policies and procedures- and their unrealistic demands to try and get us to work several additional hours without proper compensation represents harassment. Although the same agency is still harassing their current staff- Hardy's help put the agency on notice. It allowed me and several others to escape the poor working conditions they were imposing on their entire staff. Without Hardy's help- the agency would of kept making unfair and unrealistic demands on the staff and myself. Before consulting with Hardy- the agency was ignoring its own policies and procedures - and making unfair demands at their staff. Staff who did not follow these demands were fired and threatened they agency would report this to the employees licensing board. The agency removed important protections for the workers that was written in clear language in their policy and procedures. Hardy made it clear to the agency they were in violation of their own rules. After his notification- several of us were able to successfully get out of our contracts because their demands were in clear violation of policy. When we tried to point this out to the administration before I consulted Hardy- the administration used smoke and mirrors to justify their improper demands. After Hardy made it clear that the agency was violating their own policy with their demands the administration quickly backed away from their demands and most of the staff who were effected - were able to leave the agency. If it was not for Hardy- this would never of happened- and we would of been forced to work in a hostile environment. I recommend Hardy without any reservations- he really saved many of our staff and myself from continued harassment from the agencies medical director and her distorted use of the agencies own guidelines.

Annie took over a divorce case where another Tucson attorney had charged 14,000.00 with no outcome, at all. Annie is extremely professional and honest. Yes. A honest attorney does exist in Tucson and her name is Annie Rolfe. From the very first consultation, Annie treated my daughter with kindness, empathy, and integrity. Annie was able not only to achieve a positive outcome for my daughter and granddaughter, she also kept both my daughter and granddaughter legally safe from individuals who were emotionally, physically, and sexually abusive. Annie’s ability to integrate the law within current and possibly dangerous situations is exemplary. She is beyond capable. Annie excels in using legal strategies to manage extremely challenging and potentially dangerous circumstances. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ANNIE. You won’t be disappointed in any way.

I highly recommend Rolfe Family Law for those in need of help during a child custody case. Annie is knowledgeable and was supportive the whole way through my custody process. She was firm in getting what was fair for both my child, and myself and made sure my expectations were realistic. Annie was great at explaining all of my options and weighing the pros and cons of every situation. She was always patient and put my mind to ease during that stressful time.

My wife and I would like to sincerely thank Ms. Dombrowski for her the time, effort and dedication to our case involving my wife’s accident. Our settlement totally changed our future. Never having experienced something like this before, we were lost as to what to do following the accident. This type of experience, as we learned, create a feeling of fear, confusion, and helplessness as to what actions to take. We might not have taken any steps and would have moved on with our lives. Ms. Dombrowski’s knowledge and expertise was extremely helpful in making our decision and took the worry out of our daily lives. I would also like the thank the staff and a special recognition to Jessica for her hard work and keeping us in the loop when there was action to be taken by us. Extremely helpful. She made a special trip to our home to sign some paperwork as scheduling on my wife’s part made it impossible to make an office visit. Very helpful and in an era were customer service is dwindling, she stepped up. We were very appreciative. I wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Dombrowski to anyone going through an experience like ours.

I contacted them after getting denied disability the first time, Caitlin and the team at Hallinan & Killpack have gone above and beyond helping me with this process. I would recommend them to anyone that has been injured and disabled. Its nice to know that there is still someone out there that is willing to fight for me in a time of need. Thank you for all your help.

I am very pleased to have found Doug. He is very knowledgeable in Trust laws. He has a dedicated work ethic which is difficult to find these days. I knew before the consultation was complete that he was an excellent choice. I am very satisfied with his services. Even though I reside on the East Coast he managed to maneuver around that obstacle. No one wants to have a legal dispute with family members and he was very understanding of my concerns. I quickly found myself confident in his knowledge and professionalism. Doug has excellent communication skills and was quick with replies to my questions. During what has been a difficult situation, it was comforting to know that I could trust his counsel. He was just what I was searching for in an attorney. I can’t thank him enough!

My elderly father hired Atty. Newborn to resolve a breach of a verbal agreement between himself and his son where his son took a significant amount of money not owed to him after the sale of my fathers property. Atty. Newborns assistant Isaiah researched case law due to the nature of this particular incident and along with other factors in this case helped my father *win* his case. Atty. Newborn and the office personnel were always professional. Our calls were returned if we had questions and my father was kept current about case progression. *The down side to this case, which has nothing to do with Atty. Newborn who did a fantastic job, is that my father will probably never recover his money because the COURT SYSTEM/LAWS do not protect the victim/plaintiff from defendants who liquidate assets to avoid liens or collection of payment and or disappear prior to the case being decided in court. How does a victim recover his stolen money from the unscrupulous defendant? Something to think about if pursuing a defendant in a civil case where money is involved. These laws need to be changed to protect the victims. Yes my father won which is great - but on paper only.

I met attorney Kevin Kinghorn and his team at a very difficult time following the sudden death of my father and the death of my mother shortly thereafter. Kevin and paralegal Amber Kirkley were kind, patient and professional in the administration of my parents' estate. They worked closely with me for over two years to ensure everything was done properly. I can't thank them enough for taking such good care of my family in a very stressful time. I highly recommend Kevin Kinghorn.

My father had a trust with Kinghorn Law and after his passing, I became the Trustee. I retained Kevin's firm to do the Trust Administration and worked with Amber from their office. Amber was able to resolve all of the issues dealing with Canadian investments, Treasury Direct, creditor notices and many other items. She is also creating beneficiary trusts for the survivors and taking care of all paperwork. It has been a difficult process in dealing with the loss of a parent but Kinghorn Law has been there to assist in every aspect of the entire process. I would highly recommend them for any type of Family Law needs.

I was new to the world of estate planning until my husband and I got a trust with Kinghorn. I can say with all honesty, it was the best thing we've ever done! If anyone wants to know more about estate planning, Kinghorn Law has to be at the top of the list. They are extremely helpful, answer any question thoroughly, and treat clients with genuine appreciation. If you're looking for a good estate planner, as well as financial services, consider reaching out to this exceptionally professional company. You won't regret it.

This truly has to be the BEST criminal defense attorney association in Tucson Arizona hands down. THE FEDERAL KING IS KATSERELLIS LAW! I hired Kat on day 1 after a free consultation and he devoted so many hours of his time to me and I was able to go over my entire case with him and explain to him how the previous attorney I have was neglecting me and not willing to cooperate with me on anything within the interest I found best fit for my case with my brother. so within 48 hours I had an answer on a Plea, within 9 days got a plea agreement, within 1.5 Months with Kat’s word given was able to get me to court to begin the process to finish my case, and in under 90 days was able to successfully execute and close out a 6 month incarceration that was potentially looking at 33-41 months maximum. Kat is the most well respected individual, COMMUNICATION IS THE KEY TO HIS ATTENTIVENESS and he is ALWAYS ON CALL 24-7! Kat has THE MOST KIND HEARTED paralegal that works with him and her name is Jasmine. She was always on call and answering me any time I needed her to. Jasmine is so organized with coordinating anything Kat needed throughout my case and the best part is their a dynamic duo and were able to dominate my case for me and make sure we all were successful within the outcome. Kat and Jasmine know how to be patient when it came to any emotions that got in the way throughout this case because of how difficult our prosecutor was. Every single time I texted or called one of them answered. They always emailed me anything I asked for, and never once did they say No to me. I always was given anything I needed from the both of them. Truly I thank them from the bottom of my heart for executing this case and helping save my brothers life. Kat and Jasmine both helped get my brothers life back and help me get my life back on track with so much support because they knew how difficult it was for me to balance an incarcerated brother while also having to be on the outside free world and make sure he was okay at the same time. I told Kat that a miracle would happen at our sentencing and that’s exactly what happened, a time served miracle thanks to Kat! The level of intelligent, integrity, loyalty, respect, and authentic work ethic that this man has is BEYOND BEAUTIFUL. KATSERELLIS LAW FIRM IS THE BEST LAW FIRM IN TUCSON ARIZONA! God forbid if anything ever happens again, Kat is on speed dial and will be retained immediately. I trust him with my entire life till the death of me. God bless this law firm for everything they did to save my families life.

I recently had the privilege of being represented by an outstanding legal team comprised of John, Mark, and Halley, and I cannot express my gratitude enough for their exceptional service. No one else was willing to take on my case, and with only three months left before the deadline to file my lawsuit, I was beginning to lose hope. Fortunately, fate led me to John, Mark, and Halley, who not only accepted my case but worked tirelessly and diligently to ensure its success. Throughout the entire process, the team consistently kept me informed, providing updates even when progress seemed stagnant. Their dedication and commitment to my case went above and beyond any expectations and they exhibited a level of professionalism that was unparalleled. I never felt alone or in the dark, as they consistently checked in on me, demonstrating a level of empathy and understanding that truly set them apart. What stood out the most was their tactful handling of my case and the genuine sympathy they showed me during a challenging time. They were not just lawyers; they were my champions, guiding me through the legal intricacies with expertise and compassion. Their ability to alleviate my stress and concerns allowed me to navigate the process without unnecessary worry. To anyone facing a legal battle, I wholeheartedly recommend this exceptional legal team. Instead of wasting your time with other lawyers, choose John, Mark, and Halley. Their collective expertise, genuine care, and commitment to their clients make them the ideal choice. Thank you, John, Mark, and Halley, for giving me hope when I needed it most. I am truly grateful for everything you have done for me.

I can’t say enough good things about Mr Katsarelis, Joseph, and his paralegal Divine at Katsarelis Law Firm. From the very start, Joseph was professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to helping me through a difficult criminal case. Thanks to their expertise, we were able to get the case diverted and ultimately dismissed. Divine, in particular, went above and beyond, always responding to my questions, even late at night. Her dedication and patience were incredible, and she truly made a difference throughout the process. The team was always responsive, and the flat-rate fee was a huge relief, as I didn’t have to worry about any surprise costs along the way. If you’re looking for a law firm that genuinely cares about their clients and fights hard for them, I highly recommend Katsarelis, Joseph, and Divine.

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.
