James was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and helpful when I contacted him on behalf of a family member in prison having issues with getting medication. He helped me understand the legal issues involved, pointed me towards additional resources, and also offered to look into it (and has since contacted my family member to get more information). Saying that I'm grateful for his help is really an understatement (thank you again, James!) and I wouldn't hesitate to contact him again for other issues or recommend him.

Can’t say it with enough words on how thankful I am with Attorneys Mike Haber and Marc Morris. I was with the wrong people, at the wrong location, during the wrong time. Everything happened so fast; I ended up in the slammer with charges which could have left me behind bars for about 40 years. I knew the only way to prove my innocents and show I have nothing to do with the operation; I had to hire an over the top, above average, bulldog lawyer. I hesitated to call anyone. I knew of lawyers that advertise everywhere, but I was concerned as to hire any lawyer who would want to charge me up endlessly and might not have the experience to duly represent me against a setup which I had not been involved. I started googling legal terminology, and I saw a series of results from this website avvo.com and a couple of these results were answers to questions by Attorney Mike Haber. I was skeptical of both the website and the attorney. I did further research and found the validity of the website, and that Mr. Haber is licensed by the Florida Bar. It helped greatly to see Attorney Haber has much social media presence with numerous YouTube videos, which are very informative. I then felt assured this is the real deal and decided to call up Mike. Mike runs a lean law practice, and therefore there are no runarounds through a receptionist or paralegal. He answers his cell phone, and when he doesn’t, it is because he is in court. Well, going back to the storyline, I called Mike, and from the initial call I was very much impressed how articulated, and knowledgeable this guy is on the matter. Over the phone, he sounded like a tough guy (which was what I was looking for). In person, boy you better be careful not to get a bite. As long, as you are on his side or at least not against him, you will be fine. In the initial call, he mentioned about bringing another lawyer on board, Attorney Marc Morris. Marc has an extensive background as he was a prosecutor. Two amazing lawyers equal much ammunition for the battle to show my innocence against the mammoth which wanted to drag me down. This review is getting longer than expected, well to rush to the conclusion. I was released with no bail set with a ROR; the case still was pending because the prosecution did not want to budge to drop the charges, and right before the start of the speedy trial (which my attorneys requested), the attorneys endlessly dropped motions onto the prosecution. On the morning of the trial, the prosecution threw the towel, and the case was dismissed. Here are some tips: these lawyers are not going to hold your hand, nor babysit you. They are actively defending your best interest and getting things done. Therefore, do not get in their way, and let them do their job. Remember they have a lean law practice, which in turn saves you much money.

Marc is always ready for war in the courtroom. After dealing with multiple issues, he fought aggressively until the charges were knocked out. I originally hired an incompetent lawyer after not doing much research, but I soon contacted Marc Morris and Mike Haber after seeing all of their amazing reviews to see if they could help with my sitaution. After first meeting them, I realized I needed to hire them and get rid of the other lawyer. Well that was the best decision I made, because not even 6 months later, all of the charges were dropped. Marc even went out of his way to help me when I got myself into hot water by not taking his advice. He truly cares, and handles the situation as it was his own. He was able to do things in the courtroom that I never thought were possible. Thanks Marc!

Mr Morris. Is an incredible human being and lawyer, I got introduced to him as I was in high school as a little kid from friends getting in trouble during the very peak times for weston Sherrifs. As a kid I didn't understand exactly how everything worked and having my dad working outside of country and mom being mother of 3 and being able to help me with expense. But Mr.Morris explained everything in detail made sure I knew where I was headed and treated me like a long lost son. He will go through everything for you and fight till the end and is really honest and tells you how it is. He doesn't sugarcoat anything and really makes you trust him as your lawyer and friend. I personally don't know where my life would be if it wasn't for Marc Morris and how great and detail concentrated he is and incredible on how he holds his presence in a court room. Mr. Morris has not helped me with one or two but 3 cases and each one ended in dismissal or approval to be expunged. He even fought for my ex girlfriend and different people as my wrong doing and really amazed what an amazing lawyer he is. He has took me from being down and being completely wrong to safe my college career and future job. He will find a way to prove there was something wrong. To be utterly honest at first I thought he was very expensive or really just wanting to pull the money out of me . But in the end my whole perception was turned upside down. You get what you pay for and if you want to save your life your record and your future Marc Morris is the man you should hire. Mr. Morris didn't even pay me or ask me to do this review, in fact 4-5 years ago reviews mattered but Marc deserves way much more than just reviews. If you hire him you will definitely not be disapointed.

My family and I needed a probate attorney. We needed to settle my mother’s estate after she passed away. I looked for a probate attorney and they never got back with me after leaving several messages and I had to keep calling. When I did received a call back they did not explain the process just told me what their fee was and I had to pay it upfront. Needless to say I seek help from someone else. I called Mr. Lorenzo on a Saturday afternoon and he answered and explained the process of what to be expected. He sounded very knowledgeable and also caring. I felt so relieved after speaking to him and I knew I had found the right attorney. Mr. Lorenzo was there for my family and I through a difficult time and case. Mr. Lorenzo showed us empathy and trust which are two important factors to me.Through out the process he kept us informed of every detailed of the case. I’m so glad we did not stay with the other attorney. We made the right choice. I would highly recommend Mr. Lorenzo to others who are looking for a caring and trustworthy attorney who is knowledgeable of the law. Thank you Mr. Lorenzo. My family and I are very grateful to you.

Easy to understand, straightforward Layman terminology. It gave me all of the information and study questions along with some pretty funny humor-based answers to some of my incorrect answer choices on the demo test.

Hiring Solomon, Maharaj & Kasimati was the smartest decision I made in my legal federal employment law case. At every stage , Mr. Maharaj kept me informed, explained the lengthly process stages, argued on my behalf through well thought out legal substantive facts and equally as important, treated me like a person that mattered and not a number as many large firms sadly do. Mr. Maharaj worked tirelessly on my case, respectfully going toe to toe with the federal government attorneys and proving himself through his dedication to me as his client. While all cases are different, I would suggest the forward thinking legal arguments and attention to detail Mr Maharaj championed on my behalf, were the determining factors that resulted in the positive outcome of my case. I proudly recommend Mr. Maharaj and could not have asked for a more knowledgeable, hard working defender of my rights.

Mr. Maharaj is focused, diligent and caring in your defense and he will win. You have spent your career building your reputation, Don't let a Federal Agency try to tear it down retaliating against your for following or enforcing the law or Policy. After providing significant testimony in response to several independent and agency investigations, the agency retaliated against me. Dan aggressively countered and filed motions and appeals through various Federal Employment adjudication agencies (EEO, OSC & MSPB) The negotiated settlement agreement Mr. Maharaj arranged was better than expected and the agency had to provide significant compensatory damages as well as future employment references and opportunities.

I hired Laura not too long ago to help me with a Domestic Violence Injunction. Laura was always by my side and was on top of the case. She was there to answer my calls right away after dialing, whether at Midnight or Early in the morning. She did the same for any E-Mails sent to us, providing us with any documents that would be needed for the outcome we wished for. Then came the day of the hearing. She was punctual and there early, and she was sharp and was able to persuade the judge to go in a manner that is greatly done. Normally, Injunctions only last for about 1 - 2 years. But, with Laura's help we got an answer that seemed impossible, a ten year injunction. We got an answer that went beyond out expectations. I would recommend Laura for anyone.

My experience with Amir left me feeling so much more at ease after an unexpected conflict. His understanding of the law and application shows a depth of character and honesty. Previous dealings with lawyers left me feeling like I was being talked down to rather that respectfully as a client. Thank you Amir for relieving me of so much anxiety and stress! great team to have on your side! Amir is very. I recommend him to anyone needing legal advice and/ or representation.

I had the pleasure of working with Nichelle Womble, Esq for my son's adoption, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly professional, kind, and thorough throughout the entire process. Her communication was excellent, whether by phone or email, and she kept me informed every step of the way. Her expertise and genuine care made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a knowledgeable and compassionate attorney. My family and I are so grateful for what she has done for us. Thank you Nichelle! S. Carnegie

Ran into a situation where I needed a pretty quick turnaround. Got in contact with Amir and his team - they were QUICK to follow up, understand the details and react. They provided excellent care, guidance and reassurance in a crucial time. They were compassionate and really went above and beyond what I could have asked for. Definitely recommend and would 100% call again if ever needed!

We hired Vanessa based off of a referral. Our organization was undergoing a growth spurt and trademark and protecting intellectual property and become a concern. It took all of two emails and a Zoom call to realize Vanessa was the real deal. We threw questions and concerns at her one after another and without hesitation she was able to quickly answer our concerns away. When creating professional relationships it is important that both parties are on the same page. Vanessa not only patiently explained every step of our process but she reassured us that our investment was sound and necessary. I highly recommend Vanessa Kay Ferguson to represent your Intellectual property, Privacy, Contracts and agreements.

She settled my case outside of court with Carmax. She listened, she cared, she was thorough, and most importantly she did what she said she would do. Communication was great and she is quick to get the job done. She even returned unused retainer money, that alone shows you how honest she is and her level of integrity. She is in this business to help people, not help herself and that is rare. I am blessed to have found her. I highly recommend her and will use her again!

I can’t speak enough about how great this man is and how much he has helped me even long after my case was over. During my case He went to hell in back to win for me and never doubted a word I said most lawyers immediately assume your guilty not mr. Banyai and years after my case was over he still remembers me on a first name basis, still takes my calls and helps me anyway he can. Mr. Banyai is the greatest desision I’ve ever made and when your backs against the wall I hope you make the right decision too and call mr.Banyai,I have the upmost respect for him not only as a business man but as a human being as well, I’m proud to say he’s not only my lawyer but a friend also. I can keep going on but you should call him and see for yourself, he’s just a great person and will fight for you when your down and out. Thank you for everything you’ve done for me even when I was living outta state you still helped me,I thank god everyday for sending me your way. God bless you and anyone lucky enough to have you as a lawyer and friend....

Jose is very clearly good at what he does. I had spoken to a few lawyers before choosing him for my mother's estate planning and none made me feel quite as comfortable as he did. I read every page of those documents and came back with what seemed like a thousand questions. He never missed a beat and never made me feel like I was taking up too much of his time. He showed my mother the utmost respect and patience and for that I'm so grateful. I would absolutely recommend Jose if you're looking for a kind, patient, and capable lawyer.

I was looking for an attorney to protect my rights against discrimination and retaliation in the work place. After many phone calls and phone interviews with to several attorneys, all efforts seemed like a dead end. Through my friend and mentor, God led me to Attorney Mark J Berkowitz. I have never felt so secure having Attorney Mark as my attorney to represent through what might be a lengthy process. As an Electrical Engineer, with an MBA, I appreciate and benefitted from his laser focus on what is relevant information to the filing. He drafted all relevant complaints, filings of discrimination in an expeditious manner. We are not near the end of the process, I feel very secure in his competency, patience, and his accessibility and returning phone calls same day. He met with me on a holiday when the courts were closed. That is how dedicated Attorney Mark Berkowitz is. I highly recommend attorney Mark J. Berkowitz. I want him to represent my case as we navigate the process.

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.

What Does a Civil Rights Lawyer Do?

A civil rights lawyer provides legal representation and advocacy to individuals whose rights have been violated. Their work can include:

  • Filing lawsuits: A civil rights lawyer can represent you in court by filing lawsuits against individuals, businesses, or government entities that violated your rights.
  • Advocating for policy changes: Civil rights lawyers often engage in advocacy work, pushing for reforms to laws and policies that infringe upon people's rights.
  • Representing clients in discrimination claims: These lawyers help clients file claims with federal or state agencies, such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
  • Negotiating settlements: In many cases, civil rights lawyers work to negotiate settlements for their clients before a case goes to trial, securing compensation for damages such as lost wages, emotional distress, or legal fees.
  • Defending freedom of expression: Lawyers may represent clients whose rights to free speech, assembly, or protest were violated by government restrictions or other actions.
  • Handling appeals: If your civil rights case has been decided but you wish to appeal the ruling, a civil rights lawyer can help you through the appeals process.

How Are Civil Rights Lawyers Paid?

Civil rights lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work involved. Common payment structures include:

  • Contingency fee: Many civil rights lawyers work on a contingency basis, meaning they only get paid if they win your case. Their fee is typically a percentage (usually 25% to 40%) of the settlement or damages awarded.
  • Hourly rate: For cases that require extensive legal research or litigation, some lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
  • Pro bono or sliding scale: Some civil rights lawyers or organizations may work on a pro bono (free) basis or use a sliding fee scale for clients who cannot afford typical legal fees.
  • Flat fee: In specific cases, a lawyer may charge a flat fee for services like drafting legal documents or filing a complaint.

It’s important to clarify the fee structure during your initial consultation to avoid unexpected costs.

How Much Does a Civil Rights Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a civil rights lawyer varies depending on the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the type of legal issue. General cost estimates include:

  • Contingency fee cases: For cases taken on a contingency basis, the lawyer’s fee will typically range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or judgment awarded.
  • Hourly rates: Many civil rights lawyers charge hourly rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
  • Flat fees: For straightforward legal tasks, such as filing a complaint with a government agency or drafting legal documents, flat fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.
  • Pro bono work: Some civil rights lawyers or nonprofit organizations provide free legal representation in certain cases involving important constitutional or civil rights issues.

Be sure to ask for a detailed estimate of costs during your consultation to understand the financial commitment involved.

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Have you handled cases like mine before?
    Inquire about the lawyer’s experience in cases with similar facts and legal issues.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
