When I hired Tim I was looking a serious charges. He did everything to make sure I understood what was going on with my case at all times and when had any questions or concerns I never had a problem getting ahold of Tim. After a very long year we Ultimately went to trial where Tim was amazing and fought for me to be found not guilty on all charges. Without a doubt the best choice I could have made and I will never forget what he did for me.....THANK YOU TIM!!!

I had the privilege of working with Tim Note as my criminal attorney, and I cannot express enough how grateful I am for his exceptional legal representation. From the moment I first consulted with Tim, I knew I was in capable hands.
Tim's deep knowledge of criminal law and his dedication to his clients are truly commendable. He left no stone unturned in building a strong defense for my case. His attention to detail, thorough research, and strategic approach were instrumental in achieving a favorable outcome.
What sets Tim apart is not just his legal expertise, but also his genuine compassion and understanding. He took the time to listen to my concerns, address my questions, and provide reassurance throughout a challenging legal process. His clear communication and guidance made me feel empowered and informed every step of the way.
Tim's professionalism and commitment to securing the best possible result for his clients are evident in every aspect of his work. He fought tirelessly on my behalf, and I could not have asked for a more dedicated advocate.
Thanks to Tim Note's legal prowess and unwavering support, my case was resolved successfully. I highly recommend Tim to anyone seeking a top-notch criminal attorney who goes above and beyond for their clients. He is not just an excellent lawyer but also a true advocate for justice.

I was getting nowhere trying to fight my case in the system myself. Workers comp and social security. Then came rondi. She is very knowledgeable in all sides of the system. She is very sweet and personable and truly cares about the right thing but she also met any controversy during my case head on and with complete confidence. Definitely not afraid to fight for you and what is right. She always had my back and gave me peace of mind. Her characteristics I tend to think of her as a true friend that just so happens to be my atty as well. I highly recommend her.

I came to Will when I felt very lost. I didn’t know I could have such a great lawyer, he helped me throughout the whole process answered all my questions and most of all treated me as a human being. Will didn’t only resolve my case but resolved it in the best way possible. Everything Will said he was going to do for me in the case he did! He’s not only a great lawyer but a great guy. I highly recommend Will if you are looking for a lawyer that won’t only resolve your case in the best way possible but, that treats you like a friend and not just a case number.

Will and his colleagues are outstanding. My mother was charged with felony assault with a deadly weapon after being forced to defend herself from an attacker in her home. Will, Steve and their team could not have been more thorough in the time and attention spent on her case. During the actual trial, Steve and Will performed excellently. They had the prosecutor on her heels the entire time. All charges have since been dismissed without prejudice and my mother is home free instead of serving the long prison sentence she was facing. DO NOT hesitate to have Will on your side. You won't regret it.

Amazing, wonderful or just two words I would end my conversations with Mr. Finer. Jeffry always took my calls, took the time to explain my situation and was very honest as what to expect. I just adore his assistant Deanette, who is the cutest sweetest lady ever. Even when she had a hectic morning she would stop what she was doing to look for a file. Jeffry and Deanette work fantastic together. Great Team!! My last year was very stressful and with out Mr. Finer there fighting for me my situation would have been a disaster. If you are looking for a lawyer who is honest and knowledgeable in his field Jeffry Finer is the perfect pick for you.
Thank you Jeffry for everything! YOU'RE AWESOME!!

I had a sensitive case that had me upset and emotional. Mr. Finer answered my calls and emails every time I asked a question. Mr. Finer does not mince words and is one of the most matter of fact attorneys. He guided me to what I needed to do and eased my fears. Jeffrey is a man that can be trusted with the integrity that all attorneys should have.

Kyme is simply the peoples lawyer. I shopped around looking for help and no one seemed to be able or wanting to help me with my issue in getting my job back at a casino. I explained my issue to Kyme and after some time talking about my issue she was willing to help me. She laid out a plan and guided me on what do. Kyme is patient and understanding. She truly is a lawyer for the people and I would highly recommend her.

Harvest Timber a selective logging Co. was audited by the IRS, & not like we assumed; they can audit you back 3 years. Their law is they can audit you back 3 years, from any date they choose, in the time frame you have been in business, in our case was 1981-1983.This was all the agent took our check book ledger, then recorded every check with a first & last name, not a business name ,, as a employee. Long story made short according to the IRS we owed 325K w/out penalties. We had to prove every employee, & sub-contractor pd their taxes, which they already had that documentation, but stated they do not have to release the information to we the defendants. There were many names we were note able to locate to get their Income tax return forms, for it was 30 yrs ago. Those people we had no proof on but new the paid their taxes because they cashed their return checks at the bar we also owned, but IRS wanted us to pay their taxes again.
Well they got fooled, Bob raked them over the coal, & always said, don't be scared let them know you know your rights, & their history as a illegal co. operating out of Cuba, so it is hard to sue a foreign CO. or Agent. (That work w/ the phony Central Bank (also Illegal) & the Rothschild's. we ended up owing 10K, less than it cost the IRS in attorney fees.
Thank You so much Bob, You are not only a great Attorney, your a good friend.
I recommend higher than any attorney we ever had.

My wife and I have consulted with Casey on numerous occasions. Both my wife and I are in helping professions that deal will HIPPA as well as state mandates. Every time we have sought consultation from Casey Bruner he has been honest and open with us on appropriate action to pursue or not pursue (regardless of his financial gain). Casey has show integrity, character, and careful consideration each and every time we have sought consultation. If at any point my wife and I do have to seek legal representation, Casey Bruner will be our first call!

We would highly recommend Robert.

Called to ask him about his services and if they applied to an issue I was having so I could potentially hire him, and he wouldn’t even say what his services were for and he hung up on me. Extremely rude. Don’t do business with him. Look somewhere else.
Edit: You didn’t even give us the time to ask what your services were. From the information I’ve gathered it sounds like they would’ve applied to our problem but you just lost a potential client. Have the day you deserve.

I have been working with Lukins & Annis now for two years, and I must say that all the staff I have interacted with are truly professional. David Webster and his team helped me navigate the probate arena, while Charles Hausberg and Zaine M. Yzaguirre have been stellar in helping me with my litigation. Their expertise and advice is well above the price they charge, and I cannot recommend this law firm enough; you will not be disappointed.

This attorney is a scam artist. We hired him for a family member. Paid him 5 thousand dollars down. And he did not not contact us or do anything for months after. When we complained and asked for our money back, he claimed he would do the case for only the 5 grand. A year later, he sent paper work to collections going after me for 10 grand. Do not hire this money grabbing liar.

This attorney failed to communicate with clients, failed to provide adequate counsel, and failed to notify client of pertinent court motions and hearings to the point that the case was lost. Then they sent a bill to the client after telling the client there would be no cost until the case was won. Unless you want some one to screw you over in regards to your lawsuit, stay away from this 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.
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.
