I've been a client of the firm for years, and have retained attorney Sebastian Ferrantell many times. His expertise, patience and thoroughness can't be matched.

Going through this divorce was the most difficult road I’ve had to take in my life up to this point. Throughout the process Saminski Fuller stood with me and helped me navigate towards a conclusion that gave me my freedom and a positive outlook on my new life. Siobhan Fuller was incredible to work with, she was always prepared, helped me understand information if I was confused by any legal jargon and worked with me to reach the best possible outcome. She made me feel safe, heard and supported during this process. I also have to mention Linda Salazar, I felt lost at times dealing with all the legal paperwork and Linda was very kind and patient with me any time I felt stuck. I’d highly recommend this law firm anytime someone finds themselves in the unfortunate situation of divorce. I can never thank Saminski Fuller law enough for helping come out on the other side of this whirlwind feeling positive and hopeful towards my future

Saminski Fuller Law has gone above and beyond in my case. I was recently represented by Siobhan Fuller who is sharp and detailed with her work. Nothing was hard to understand, thankfully to Ms. Fuller and the staff. She never missed anything, and everything was on point. I hate going to court so thank you for basically being my face throughout the whole thing. Beyond thankful and happy with how my case settled.

This lawyer represented me in a termination lawsuit. I found her to be professional but caring. She made sure that all the details were covered and went out of her way to make sure we represented the facts of my circumstances. She knows case law and puts together her narratives very well. I would recommend her to anyone in an employment situation where they have been treated unfairly.

I have consulted with Ms. Douglass several time and I have found that not only is she an excellent listener, she shows immense compassion and a very in depth knowledge of the law. I would not hesitate a second to hire Michelle or to recommend her to a friend. In our conversations she has really opened my eyes to many aspects of life and the law. She would be an incredibele asset to have on anyones side!

I am writing to respond to the anonymous poster who unfairly trashed Michelle Douglass. My experiences with her are exactly the opposite. I’ve never met a lawyer who cares as much for her clients or who works harder. She treats everyone with courtesy and respect. Michelle has excellent legal and people skills. The anonymous poster either is an overly demanding person, had unreasonable expectations or lives in a warped sense of reality. He descriptions of Michelle’s conduct is simply erroneous and an exaggeration from someone who is bitter about things unrelated to her case. No doubt her bitterness came through to the jury. I’d also like to point out that the cases Michelle handles are not easy, they are labor intensive and legally and factually challenging. The overwhelming majority result in the claimant losing. Michelle is an undeterred fighter who spares no expense and works until everything is done. I hope I never need her again, but I’d highly recommend her.

I cannot say enough positive things about Daniel L. Mellor, JD, LLM and his team at Kulzer & DiPadova Law Firm. My husband and I knew that we wanted to prepare our assets in such a way that if and when something happens to us, our children do not need to have to figure it out on their own, or worse lose the important things we want them to have. Dan was able to work with us, explain each of the steps and create a Trust for us that we know will go to our children. We are not lawyers, we didn’t know the lingo, yet we were treated with the utmost respect and care throughout the entire experience. Don’t wait to set up your Family Trust, and be sure to use Daniel L. Mellor, JD, LLM to create it for you, you will be so happy you did.

So I was supposed to be represented by Taylor Dibenedetto for a careless driving ticket. The day of court my attorney turned out to be someone else (female) not who I thought I was being represented by and settled the matter from a careless to an unsafe with a $500 fine. These people are a scam. Very incompetent and it’s like they didn’t even try. I could’ve gotten the unsafe driving on my own and saved the $300 I paid for this terrible attorney👎👎👎

A great resource. As a long-term labor lawyer, I often conferred with Neil Mullin and Nancy Erika Smith of Smith Mullin when my clients had issues arising under New Jersey employment law. They largely invented that area of law and have been leading practitioners for more than thirty years. Their advice has always been very smart and very practical
In the last ten years, I became partially disabled and turned to Neil and Nancy for personal legal advice about my own rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act and the New Jersey Law against Discrimination. Their counsel has been invaluable.

As I journeyed through months of treatment and recovery, Michael stood as a steadfast pillar of support, offering guidance and reassurance every step of the way. His swift action and unwavering dedication alleviated much of the stress and uncertainty that accompanied my personal injury lawsuit. With each interaction, he imparted invaluable insights into the legal process of these types of cases, empowering me to make informed decisions for both the present, and the future.
Throughout it all, Michael’s professionalism never wavered. Despite the emotional toll of the journey, he remained composed and punctual, demonstrating a deep understanding of the complexities of my case.

I do not recommend this firm. As seniors, we needed a will - a simple will. We went to T. Dengler who, as an estate lawyer, was trusted to advise us properly. A few simple questions turned into a Trust that we did not understand nor did we ask for and we told him so. He gave us a brief explanation and we told him we still didn't understand - he encouraged us to sign. Also, although we were quoted a price for this will, the Trust fees were never discussed or mentioned. Asking him how much he replied he had to "figure it out". We were distressed and sleepless worrying how much this would cost. I will state that this was settled after our complaint but now we have to start over and this has left us to distrust lawyers, Do your homework, you can get more info from Google.

"I unfortunately had Alexandra Coglianese appointed as our parent coordinator. She exhibited bias and manipulated facts to fit her own narrative. Her dishonesty led to false statements, some of which she corrected when confronted. She even presented inaccurate information to the judge, some of which she later amended in an email sent at 7 PM the night before the hearing. Whether this was deliberate or due to incompetence, she failed to prioritize my daughter’s best interests by presenting misleading narratives to the court and making false statements and unsolicited recommendations.
If you’re seeking someone who is fair, honest, and genuinely looks out for the child’s well-being, I recommend avoiding Alexandra Coglianese.”

I reached out to Roosevelt Jean via e-mail a year ago seeking representation for a case of police misconduct but did not receive a response. I called him, and we had what one could call an impromptu consultation. Roosevelt said he had a meeting in about 10 minutes or so and told me (not asked) to tell him what happened. He claimed he did not get my e-mail. I told Mr. Jean my matter is not one that can be discussed within a few minutes due to how complex it was. I then suggested that him and I plan a time to officially go over the case so he could get the full context of it. He hostilely shot back at me telling me I was going to tell him at that moment about my case and it will be within five minutes. Who the hell is this jerk to dictate how long it will take me to explain my case to him?? Mind you, this is someone who knows absolute nothing about my legal matter. He assumed as a means to merely overpower the conversation. Who does he think he is?? This attorney is so domineering it's not even funny.

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:
-
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.
