Chris Finney of Bond Legal Group was incredibly helpful in handling my car accident case. From the moment I contacted him, he demonstrated professionalism, dedication, and a deep understanding of personal injury law. He carefully explained the legal process and guided me through each step, ensuring I was well-informed and comfortable with every decision. Chris was also highly responsive, always available to answer my questions and provide updates on the case. His negotiation skills were top-notch, and he worked tirelessly to secure a fair settlement that covered my medical expenses and damages. I felt genuinely supported throughout the entire process, and I highly recommend Chris Finney for anyone in need of a skilled car accident attorney.

I have a very good friend that practices law in Wichita. I called him to help me with my common law lawsuit. He referred me to Jeffrey. My friend said it wasn't going to be cheap and these cases are hard to win but that he was one of the best. My advice to anyone reading this review. If you want a cheap attorney and you don't have much to lose, keep looking. If you have a lot to lose then make the investment. If I had it to do over again I would do it exactly the same way. Jeffrey and his team did everything that they were paid to do.

I had questions about a letter I received in the mail that I did not understand, he explained it to me without making me feel like an idiot. He was straightforward, and I respect that. Even though I didn't use his firm, I highly recommend him. He will be the first one I go to if needed. Thank you for taking the time to speak with me.

Jeremy Koop was my lawyer during a very serious court case. Not only did Jeremy do an excellent job of leading our defense in my case, but he also explained things in a manner that allowed me to comprehend the legal side of things that can be somewhat confusing. Without Jeremy, I would have been at a complete loss on what to do. He went above and beyond in my case, and at the final court appearance the judge even spoke for how well Jeremy had done in our court proceedings. Jeremy truly is a live-saver.

I had a very difficult case involving divorce, full custody of both my boys and a move halfway across country. The odds were against me. David Hawley was the 3rd atty I called and by far the best. He was confident, honest and made me feel like I knew him my whole life. In 6 months time we accomplished all my goals! I have full custody of my sons, live in the PNW again, where my family is, and (if my bonehead ex can keep a job) a fair amt of child support. He was always responsive timely, aggressive when needed, knowledgeable and helped guide me to the right decisions. Highly recommend David Hawley for your family law needs!

Vince Roth was exactly the Attorney we needed as we navigated our way through the court system. He is extremely knowledgeable, very professional and kept us well informed during the entire process. He was also very responsive, and up to date on the most recent laws that pertained to our case. Vince was able to get a serious felony charge reduced to a simple misdemeanor. This is because he fought for what was right, and we never felt that we were lost in the shuffle of the system. We would recommend Attorney Vince Roth to everyone who needs an excellent attorney!

I was very impressed with my experience at Weber Law. I was looking for an attorney to help me with my estate planning. Mr. Weber was very professional and communicated everything about estate planning, reviewing all options and giving me the best advice. His secretary was also very kind and gracious, answering any questions I had about appointments and expectations. Thank you for your exceptional service and professionalism. I would recommend Weber Law to anyone seeking estate planning.

We needed some legal work done on short notice. I contacted the Weber Law Office and explained our situation. They said they could get the work done by the time we needed it. we met with them and gave them the details of what we needed. they were able to get the work done before we needed it. We were very pleased with them and the work they did for us.

Wow!! I am amazed at what Weber Law Office did for me. First, April. Amazing. I needed help, right away for my son(traffic). I called Weber law because of the ratings I saw online. April immediately assisted me during this emotional time and related. I work in customer, so to engage, and make me feel welcomed is not something that can be easily done. It wasn't transnational, all of my interactions with April and Mr. Weber were extremely memorable. That's what you need when you're going through a tough time. You want to know that you can trust and depend on the lawyer that you're hiring. I called on a Wednesday morning, probably when they first opened. By the afternoon, I had been in office, retained Mr. Weber, and had a court date for the next day. Literally Mr. Weber was able to do a walk in docket, and have the issue taken care of. Afterwards, he visited with me, my son, and mom, and we had a conversation about travel or something.
It's been a little over 2 weeks since I first called Weber law. The follow up has been phenomenal, both email and phone. If you're looking for a lawyer who will actually LISTEN to you, and make sure that you understand the process, with amazing follow through, Weber Law is what I who I would choose. They deserve more stars than 5! Thank you!!!!!!

Incredibly friendly and helpful! Andrew is very honest and thorough with your case. We needed help with my deceased father’s estate and Andrew gave us options and was not pushy for us to make a decision. We didn’t feel uncomfortable to make a choice one way or another.
We also really appreciated his 15 minute free consultation call! His secretary sent out a questionnaire beforehand so the call could be focused on our pressing questions.
My husband and I highly recommend him!

I had an ex who was less than pleased that I had moved on. He made multiple calls to DCF with lies and fabrications. As soon as I was contacted by someone at DCF, I called Mr. Mitchell's office and got an appointment right away. He took my case and within 2 weeks I had full custody of my children. I now tell all of my friends about Mr. MItchell for any of their legal needs.

I had an ex that kept threatening to take my kids from me because she would get mad at me. She also has a few issues she needs to get right with herself. As a dad in Kansas you always hear how it is impossible to gain custody of your kids over their mom. Mr. Mitchell got me custody of my girls and their mom has to be supervised around them until she can get herself right.

I originally lived in Kansas when my child custody case was created and I have since moved to North Carolina. There were some issues that arose with my daughter and I had to then find a lawyer that can practice in Kansas but would be willing to work with me via zoom. I was a little nervous about hiring an attorney without sitting down face to face and discussing my case.
I called and spoke with his staff to complete my intake paperwork and those ladies were so kind and caring and then after my Zoom call with Tony, I knew that I had found the right person to represent my daughter and I.
Tony is so kind and professional and he truly listens and cares. He was very patient with me during this process and always quick to respond to emails, phone calls, etc. He will fight for you and advocate for you, all the while keeping a positive attitude.
I will continue to use Tony and his staff with any future family law needs.

Since my original child custody agreement was filed, I have moved out of state and once the issue arose and I needed to hire an attorney in Kansas, I came across Tony.
I worked with his staff to complete my intake paperwork and they were so nice, friendly and professional. I then had my first Zoom call with Tony and I was impressed at how he had studied my case and he already had a game plan in mind as to how we needed to proceed. I knew at that moment I had found the right person.
Over the next 6 months, Tony was so patient, understanding and professional during the whole process. He knows the law inside and out and he continued to advocate for us all the while staying positive.
I will definitely hire Tony again and recommend him to anyone that needs a family law attorney.

I first worked with Tony several years ago regarding a family law matter. I knew he was gold then and was so grateful he took me on as a client.
More recently, through a series of sad and unusual events, I became the administrator of my ex’s (and father of my child) estate, largely due to some ongoing litigation he had prior to passing.
Tony was my first call when that roller coaster started because I trusted him and knew I would need some help navigating. Through it, I worked with three other sets of attorneys I did not hire.
I can emphatically say Tony is hands down my favorite attorney. Tony has been the only attorney that I worked with that keeps at the forefront that clients are generally not attorneys and that all the not knowing through the legal process is really hard on them. Because the estate had so many moving parts, and I subsequently had a lot of questions, I got to find out how many ways Tony aims at efficiency AND keeping clients informed.
One set of attorneys was particularly awful, and I’m grateful Tony took the brunt of that so that part could get wrapped up sooner than it would have otherwise. The other two were more on the “average” side, but getting information from them was so difficult at times. The one I had the longest working relationship with also does family law, which makes me all the more emphatic in my recommendation of Tony.
He will actually listen to you. He handles the majority of his correspondence and will get back to you in a *very* timely matter, even with a busy caseload. His office staff are absolutely stellar. He really knows the law. (After my first call for the family law matter, as well as what turned into the estate, he quickly ascertained [with little information from me] what was going on and what was likely coming and gave me a spot on summary BOTH times.) Both cases had a moment of needing a strategic move, and what he arrived at was utterly brilliant, both times. He gives excellent counsel. I’ve never felt like I was just another day at the office/paycheck to him. That’s hard to do in any line of work, but especially in one that has so much routine in the day-to-day coupled with clients who are probably having a lot of rough days in a row. His billing is extremely fair, especially given he will not be wasting his time or yours and he will spare you SO MANY headaches because of how he keeps you informed and handles things as a whole. Tony somehow manages to move towards an efficient and fair resolution without getting mired in all the dramatic back and forth it’s easy to get into in a family law situation while still treating you like a person. And he does it all with the utmost integrity. He is the only attorney I’ve worked with that I would hire again (and with a swiftness). What an absolute godsend he’s been!

Upon our first meeting Candice was extremely calming, informative, and an excellent guide. Although Candice wasn't able to be physically present during our last couple hearings due to her having her baby and getting some well earned maternity leave, she placed yet ANOTHER AAA+ family law attorney from their practice as her fill in, Haley..As scary as needing a family law attorney can be Penner Lowe has your best interest at hand from all angles! Best results I could've asked for!
Hopefully I never have to use them again, but if I im placed in such a predicament I will definitely be choosing penner lowe and Candice as my family law council!

Unanswered emails, phone calls, then had to stop by his office daily until I found him there without a locked door and lights out during normal business hours. He cost me 9 months of my life and thousands of dollars. He offered a refund due to his mistakes
and then renigged when I hired other council. Beware!!!

Megan and her associate Kayla were not only extremely knowledgeable but also compassionate and poured their hearts into our two girl’s cases. Don’t let those pretty faces fool you, these two are bull dogs that give 110% in fighting for justice for children!!!
They took on the DCF establishment which helped us adopt our special needs child with an adoption subsidy that met her needs!! Every child deserves a family!!

In what was easily the most difficult situation/scenario we could have envisioned as we entered into a contested adoption for our daughter, Megan served as a pillar of strength, hope and most importantly unparalleled legal advice.
She did a fantastic job of balancing the heightened sensitivity and emotion of the situation with the professional, well-organized and meticulous expertise necessary to obtain the desired result (which ultimately culminated with the birth father agreeing to an open adoption half-way through Megan’s deposition).
She was extremely detailed in keeping us apprised of developments as they occurred and used her wealth of experience to provide invaluable insights and recommendations in crafting an initial strategy and modifying/revising her approach based on the evolution of the matter.
We cannot thank her enough for her efforts and would highly encourage anyone in need of representation to utilize Megan and the rest of the team at Martin Pringle.

I endorse Attorney Megan Monsour. Adoption and surrogacy are collaborative processes and frequently involve attorneys licensed in different states. I have worked with Ms. Monsour many times in the last five years and always had excellent experience with her. She is professional and knowledgeable. She has an impeccable reputation and demonstrates commitment to the best legal and ethical practices.

Brendan represented me in a case where I was involved in a traffic accident. He was always there for me and explained everything in a manner that was simple. He covered all necessary bases and minimized any further issues as a result of these alleged criminal and civil charges. He was able to get them dropped and reduced to a manageable fine and probation. The best possible outcome for a case of my kind. Brendan was the best choice for me and I would recommend him to anyone out there. He will be able to give your case the attention it deserves opposed to other overpriced overworked lawyers who only concern themselves with their biggest money cases and brush you aside. Try him out, you will not be disappointed.

When I made the determination to retain a lawyer for my divorce, I paid the money for three separate consultations to ensure I would get the best legal representation possible. Save yourself the money and hire Paula from the beginning. When I read the very first letter from Paula to the opposing counsel, I knew immediately that I made the right decision. Between that one single letter and the threat of the exhibits Paula intended to use, the opposing counsel agreed to settle the case without going to trial. I was even surprised to receive money back. Paula did a fantastic job.

Paula instantly made me feel safe and taken care of when I became her client. She and Julie are highly organized and knowledgeable about my case. Paula was prepared for anything the opposing side threw at us, reacted professionally and timely, and remained in complete control of the case. I never felt like the opposing attorney took control of my case. Paula knew exactly how to keep my kids safe, and made sure to provide proper evidence to the judge to do just that. She also provided all my options to me and explained them (and the possible consequences) to me when I had any questions. She was my voice of reason many times, which was so reassuring to me. I am very grateful to have Paula as my attorney. My case is now complete, and I am so peacefully relieved. She and her team did an amazing job.

Andrew was wonderful. He handled everything quickly and professionally. When the hospital billed me incorrectly, he straightened it out and I never had to deal with anything on my own.

I unfortunately, waited too long to finally take that first step to obtaining some legal assistance from a vehicle collision. If I had it (which I hope I do NOT) to do over again, I would have sought the legal advice immediately after I noticed pain as result of the accident. Although, I was reluctant to obtain a lawyer, I couldn't be more satisfied with the services and advise Mr. Geren provided. He is knowledgeable, willing to listen, and works diligently to understand his client's needs and demands. Most of us just want to be treated fairly when unfortunate situations arise that are beyond our control. Mr. Geren will thoroughly explain your options and do all he can to make you feel comfortable while doing so. He can turn a very difficult and sometimes unfair event into a more positive experience.
Mr. Geren is compassionate and does his best to show you that you are important, and regardless of what kind of pain and suffering you may be going through, he shows you that you don't have to be doing it alone, nor do you have to "accept" what has become- as a result determined by the insurance companies involved. I believe he deeply cares about each of his clients. He does what he can to make things right. Most importantly, he does this with integrity, compassion, and with care.
If ever you find yourself not feeling the same as before an accident, and you have exhausted the resources the insurance companies first give you, seek legal advise from Andrew Geren. I assure you, you won't be disappointed or regret that you had. He will guide you through the entire process, explaining thoroughly every detail along the way so that you understand completely. There will be no pressure, only guidance and suggestions and very good advise.

Richard and the rest of the staff at Devaughn-James are great people to work with. They gave me accurate expectations for the outcome of my case, explained the entire process in a way that was easy to understand, and gave good answers with quick responses to all of my questions.
What I most appreciated is that his staff was very flexible to work with and easy to contact, both by phone & by email. They kept me well informed throughout the entire process, checked in with me periodically to ask how I was recovering from my injuries, and were patient with me in allowing me to balance my own personal & work life with getting them the paperwork from my doctors & everything else they needed from me to process my case.
I would highly recommend this lawyer, and if I am ever in the position to need his services I would definitely work with him again.

I give Mr. McDowell a 10 star rating. 5 is not anywhere near enough stars. He is professional and I have hired him twice now for custody issues against the same father. I have walked into court confident every single time with Mr. McDowell and he ALWAYS wins my case. You cant believe all ratings that you see posted here. Mr Ray Neighbors, for instance, he is a troll. No offense to him, but do your research. He seems to really hit hard on the legal system and judges. I saw his rating and it infuriated me. Mr. McDowell is by far the best attorney around!!

I came to Don with a financial problem. (bankruptcy). He and his staff were very thorough. It went very smooth and quick. They kept me up on the whole procedure. They told me what they needed, as far as documents, pay stubs etc. but also how I could get the information with little effort. They were there every step of the way. The great thing about all this they were very professional at a lower cost than about 7-8 other attorneys I called.

I have used Dan on many occasions for a variety of legal matters and he is a zealous advocate who has a passion for the law and an extreme passion for helping people. In addition to practicing law, he is very active throughout the community and serves on many different charity boards and assists in raising money for those charities. In my experience, Dan's greatest gift is his ability to solve problems and work out complex problems between two idealogical different positions. He is just a excellent all around attorney and person.
