Can't say enough about Driscoll for how they work & the final results! I knew little of law and they broke everything down and build a plan that led to a successful verdict. You should meet with Driscoll before you decide on your law firm for your case.

I'm so glad I contacted Midwest Injury Lawyers for my Grandma's injury case. Brennan handled her case with the utmost professionalism.

Under the circumstances, he stopped and listened. The full case was a bit much. He looked into the person and the case. He did battle with the legal system for the person not the crime. He looked into the persons past and set them up for the best future based on what the person showed him. I was amazed at his approach to the situation. He looked for facts that most people overlook. Prompt, respectful, knowledgeable, professional and caring. You will not find a more effective attorney.

Billy helped my firm navigate a complicate acquisition. The other side literally had 3 other lawyers, as well as another one that was fired in the middle of the deal. Billy handled it all with ease, explained things to me in a way that I understood, and helped us accomplish our goal. I highly recommend Billy.

When we were looking for a lawyer to represent us against a copyright troll in CA, I was at first hesitant to contact Billy as he was in Chicago. So I called a few others first and Billy last. Billy was by far the most reasonable and knowledgeable about the industry. He did a superb job at getting a settlement that we could live with. He spent quite a bit of time going back and forth with the troll and us. I believe he does this work out of principle as he surely spent far more time than the fee we paid him.
When we called Billy, we were feeling afraid, tense, and extremely nervous. Within minutes, Billy made us feel secure and relaxed because we knew he would be protecting us from that point on. He lived up to his reputation and we cannot thank him enough. Strangely, I feel like I owe him more money for how much work he did to represent us. How many times has anyone hired a lawyer and felt that way? From our experience with Billy and his caring nature, I truly consider him a friend and hope to someday payback his kindness,

I was extremely fortunate to have found Ben Kailin and Firm Equity after being named in a Malibu Media Lawsuit. After contacting a few other law firms, I felt Ben seemed to really understand how to deal with Malibu Media. He took on my case and was able to negotiate a settlement I could live with. The initial offer from the plaintiff was way more than I could afford to pay. It took him several weeks of back and forth negotiating before he was able to bring the settlement amount down to an acceptable level. I’m not sure the modest fee he charged even covered the time he spent on my case. He is truly the friendliest yet fiercest lawyer around. If you are ever unlucky enough to be involved in something like this, definitely call Ben and Firm Equity.

Ben spoke to me on the phone and answered every single question I had before I even retained his services. His generosity with information, his frankness and honesty, and his genuine desire to help is what makes Ben a great attorney in my opinion. I was dealing with a person who expressed understanding and not just a 'matter of fact' attitude. He was always accessible via email as well as on the phone. He really went to bat for me, and he helped me settle at a price I could achieve. I owe many thanks to Ben for his work and attitude.

Benjamin has turned gloom and despair into instant relief. I had hired an attorney for a copyright infringement case (multiple infringements) who did a whole lot of nothing. So little of nothing that the accusers had plenty of time to get my real name and serve a civil court summons to me at my home. I had to hire another lawyer and this time I wanted to make sure I got someone who had the right stuff.
Enter the Benjamin. Not only did he cover the basics of what needed to be done and the strategy needed in my case, he also made it a point to treat you as a real person with real feelings. Attentive. He understood the misery and dread, and that no one wants to file bankruptcy over something like this, especially when you are over 40. He negotiated a reduced settlement that was a pleasant surprise and made the process of paying the settlement extremely easy. No hidden costs.
He’s always in communication with you so you don't feel like you are in a long line waiting to get served. He does what he says he is going to do and makes you feel relaxed through the whole process. I am extremely happy with Benjamin’s service and HIGHLY recommend him. Worth every single penny. Can’t speak high enough. You are in good hands with him.

I was charged/framed for a serious crime, my family and I were at a loss as to how we would find a good lawyer. Everyone thought that I would go to prison. My family found Joshua B. Kutnick, and they hired him. Frankly, I was not certain that he would be able to win my case, yet I waited for the results. Prior to the trial date, he invested/worked as though he was a brother or father to me, within this cruel world I realized that humility still lives. On the day of trial, my nerves were wrecked. He went in and WOW! my case was dismissed, with no penalties. I was speechless, as was everyone else with the results. That was all due to the hard work and prowess of Joshua Kutnick, this honorable man has 18 years of experience under his belt. I normally don’t write lengthy reviews, however, I know that nobody’s absolutely perfect, everyone faces is accused once, if you’re charged, the most beneficial things you could have would be this lawyer. Thus, use him to your benefit. Do not assign a lawyer with a lack of background/experience who will only feed you empty promises, to get hold of your money, which will result in a bad outcome. Best of luck to you all.

I am eternally grateful for Janaan and the service she provided with helping me get 2 criminal records expunged and 1 sealed. I consulted with many attorneys before contacting Janaan and always left those conversations feeling hopeless. This was not the case with Janaan. When she and I met, she understood my needs and thoroughly explained the process and laws as it pertained to my situation. She was consistent with providing updates and was always reassuring. As the world was halted by the pandemic, Janaan was still very diligent with moving the process along when she was permitted to do so and was still able to complete the process in a very reasonable timeframe.
If you find the process of trying to get your criminal record expunged or sealed to lengthy or confusing, I highly recommend Janaan without any reservation.

Rima Kapitan represented me as a graduate student in an academic case. As a student without significant cash flow, she immediately made me feel comfortable and was willing to work with me financial-wise, which was so awesome. Rima the epitome of professionalism, kind, but is 'no nonsense' when representing her clients. Although the case did not turn out as (anyone) had expected, I couldn't have had the great successes I did if it weren't for Rima and her partner Yusra. She can get stuff done...and quickly. I had an extremely positive experience with her law firm.

Rima takes the time to understand the details of your case and has an in-depth understanding of higher-education law. After an initial discussion of the problem I was relieved to find out that Rima concentrated her practice on representing faculty Rather than institutions. She was excellent at responding to attempts by university lawyers to bully and intimidate me, and in making sure that they respond to the concerns I raised. In the end, the settlemnet Rima negotiated for me was over twice the amount that the university originally offered.

I hired Brandon Brown to defend me on an Animal Neglect charge. At our very first meeting I learned that Mr Brown is an honest and upfront person. He spoke with so much confidence. With his professionalism and how well he considered my concerns I knew he was the right person for my case and I was absolutely correct! I only appeared in court twice for this case and on the second round Mr Brown beat my case and charges were dismissed!!! I recommend Brandon Brown to anyone who’s looking to hire an attorney.

Attorney Brown was very courteous and thorough in response to my needs. He listened to my concerns and took special measures to address the specific needs related to my brother's case. He frequently asked if we had additional questions, taking time to answer our questions. He represented us in a highly professional manner, facilitating the best defense possible. Particularly, he communicated my brothers health needs to the court and followed through on our behalf to obtain appropriate considerations and care for him.

My experience/journey with Courtney Kelledes has been a pleasant and knowledgeable one. I contacted her for help with a years long ongoing situation which had been taken upon by other lawyers with no resolve. After explaining my situations and concerns she informed me that she would contact me after reviewing my info with her partners. I was contacted back shortly where she told me, while she could not make guarantees she and her partners did find merit in my cause, requests and ultimately my goal. From there Courtney laid out a precise step by step strategy with options for said steps. After that it was blast off as she went to work on my behave legally while thoroughly explaining steps, goals, expectations and timelines. She always kept an open ear to my concerns being that I had not had the best if not down right bad experience dealing with the various organizations in past attempts. Courtney always heard my voice and broke down said concerns with answers that I could understand as it applied to the law and my situation. She was always upfront as she pointed out the upside and possible downsides and always had a plan to address any and all possibilities. I appreciated Courtney’s patience with me as there were times due to the courts, law enforcement and past covid 19 fallout the results, while when realized were favorable, seemed to go beyond what would have been thought typical time wise which was frustrating but even then that’s when she showed her value and diligence as she never let department drag go without inquiry on my behalf. Courtney represented me and performed her duties as my lawyer as I always wanted from my initial attempts in the past but had not received from other lawyers before her. We ultimately achieved our goal with me gaining confidence that the legal system isn’t just one sided. Courtney Kelledes is a knowledgeable, down to earth, professional lawyer!

Robert was recommended to me by a friend, and my past experience with lawyers was not great, to say the least. I had always seen them (in injury circumstances) as someone who has the tools and vocabulary but essentially acts as a middle man that just takes most of what you are due. Not SO with Bob. After hiring, he was very upfront with me about the circumstances and scenarios that my motorcycle accident & claim would lead to, and he helped me every step of the way. By the grace of God, and his professional team we reached a result that was beyond satisfactory. He worked at a speed much faster than the state of California and was always one step ahead of everyone else. If you have need for a personal injury lawyer I can't recommend Bob enough. He's professional, timely, candid, and will work his hardest to make sure that you are fairly represented, and given your best chance when pitted against insurance companies and 3rd parties.

I have never engaged a lawyer for anything before, and was incredibly reluctant to do so. But on the advice of friends after several months of trying to get a resolution on my own proved frustrating and fruitless, I got in touch with Bob to help sort out medical bills from a bike/auto collision. Bob was thorough in his explanations, incredibly responsive and refreshingly realistic at every stage about possible outcomes. Thankfully, the situation was resolved in my favor - but even if it hadn't been, I would have been very pleased with Bob's professionalism and service.

I made the biggest mistake of my life one night and was pretty sure that I had destroyed my career and my life. I called Rob on the recommendation of a friend and he immediately talked me off the ledge, showing care and compassion that an idiot like me did not deserve.. Once the proceedings started, Rob was as effective as could be imagined with regard to handling the case but more importantly he kept me fully informed about what was going on. He not only knows the law, he knows people and he knows how judges think. He framed my case to the court in such a way that I ended up getting supervision when I deserved much worse. In the end, Rob saved my butt with his great skill, I was truly lucky to hire him as my attorney.

Garrett was quick to respond to all my questions and concerns. He always outline my options in a concise, easily digested manner. I completely trusted his work as well as his opinion.

Garrett has been nothing short of miraculous for me. My situation has proven to be less than optimal, as far as my case evolving into a garden variety law suit. It has been a rough ride thus far but Garrett has kept me abreast of all levels/stages/expectations of my case and has done so in a personal and professional manner. He's made time for me whenever I've called him with comments, questions or concerns. From the time I met him I liked him. Our professions may be at the opposite ends of the spectrum but I retained his services based on my impression of him as a person as well as an attorney. I never felt like an obsolete client with Garrett. He talks to you, not at you. Garrett's a good guy and a good attorney.

What a Civil Rights Lawyer Can Do for You
A civil rights lawyer focuses on protecting individuals whose constitutional rights have been violated by government authorities, employers, or private organizations. These lawyers specialize in cases involving discrimination, police misconduct, freedom of speech, and other fundamental rights guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution and civil rights laws, such as the Civil Rights Act, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and the Fair Housing Act.
Whether you've been discriminated against due to race, gender, religion, disability, or other protected characteristics, or you believe your civil rights have been violated by a government entity, a civil rights lawyer can help you seek justice, hold wrongdoers accountable, and secure compensation for any harm you've suffered.
When Should I Hire a Civil Rights Lawyer?
You should hire a civil rights lawyer when your constitutional rights or other protected rights have been violated, and you need legal assistance to seek justice. Some key situations in which you may need a civil rights lawyer include:
- Employment discrimination: If you have faced discrimination at work based on race, gender, age, religion, national origin, or disability, a civil rights lawyer can help you file claims under laws such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act or the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
- Police misconduct or brutality: If you were the victim of police brutality, unlawful arrest, racial profiling, or other forms of misconduct, a lawyer can help you file a lawsuit for violations of your Fourth and Fourteenth Amendment rights.
- Freedom of speech or assembly violations: If your First Amendment rights to free speech or peaceful assembly have been restricted by the government, a civil rights lawyer can represent you in challenging the violation.
- Housing discrimination: If you’ve been denied housing or faced unfair treatment due to your race, ethnicity, gender, or disability, a lawyer can help you file a complaint under the Fair Housing Act.
- Voter rights violations: If you believe your right to vote has been unfairly suppressed or you’ve faced discrimination in the voting process, a civil rights lawyer can help you fight for your rights.
- Disability rights violations: If you’ve faced discrimination in accessing public spaces, employment, or services due to a disability, a lawyer can help enforce your rights under the ADA.
- LGBTQ+ rights violations: If you've experienced discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity in employment, housing, or public services, a civil rights lawyer can help you pursue legal remedies.
Hiring a lawyer early on can help you understand your legal options and build a strong case to protect your rights.

Top Questions to Ask a Civil Rights Lawyer
Before hiring a civil rights lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with civil rights cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it’s employment discrimination, police misconduct, or First Amendment violations. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer works on a contingency fee basis, hourly rate, or flat fee, and ask for an estimate of the total cost of your case. -
What is the likelihood of success for my case?
Ask the lawyer to provide an honest assessment of your case, including the strengths, weaknesses, and potential outcomes. -
Have you handled cases like mine before?
Inquire about the lawyer’s experience in cases with similar facts and legal issues. -
What is the timeline for resolving my case?
While exact timelines can vary, ask for an estimate of how long your case may take, from filing to resolution. -
Will you handle my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may work on parts of your case, so it’s important to know who will handle your legal matter directly.
How to Check the Credibility of a Civil Rights Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable civil rights lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their state bar license: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for specific civil rights experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in civil rights law and have a history of handling cases like yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who can speak to their experience with civil rights cases.
- Check for advocacy or nonprofit work: Lawyers involved with civil rights organizations, such as the ACLU or NAACP Legal Defense Fund, may have a strong reputation in the civil rights legal community.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a civil rights lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- A detailed account of the violation: Provide a written summary of the events, including dates, times, and any people involved in the violation of your rights.
- Documentation and evidence: Bring any supporting documentation, such as emails, letters, photos, or video footage that may help prove the violation of your rights.
- Records of complaints or reports: If you’ve filed complaints with a government agency or reported the violation, bring copies of those documents.
- List of questions: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes of your case.
- Information on damages or harm: Be prepared to discuss the harm you’ve suffered due to the violation, such as emotional distress, financial loss, or physical injury.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and get the best possible legal advice on how to proceed.
