I had an excellent experience working with Mr Patrick. From the very start, they were professional, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable.They took the time to explain every detail of my case, making sure I was comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. Their communication was top-notch, and they always responded to my questions promptly. What stood out the most was their dedication and genuine concern for my case – I truly felt like they had my best interests at heart. Thanks to their expertise and hard work, my case was resolved in the best possible way. I highly recommend Mr Patrick to anyone in need of legal assistance!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Tolga Ozek on my Green Card process. From our very first consultation, I felt reassured by their professionalism and expertise. Tolga Ozek took the time to thoroughly explain the legal process and my options, making sure I understood each step. They were always responsive to my questions and concerns, which made the entire experience much less stressful. What impressed me most was he care your case more than anything. He kept update me about all the process. Thanks to their hard work, we achieved a favorable outcome that exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Tolga Ozek to anyone in need of legal assistance. Their dedication and knowledge truly set them apart. Thank you, Tolga Ozek, for your outstanding support!

Jeff was an absolute pleasure to work with on setting up our wills and advance directives. From our introductory call to the signing of the final documents, Jeff walked us through the process efficiently and thoroughly. He answered all of our questions throughout and gave us all the guidance we needed. We appreciate that Jeff traveled to our home to complete the signing and filed the documents on our behalves. It was a straightforward process from beginning to end and we are thankful to Jeff for his legal knowhow and client focus.

I called Jeff for a question that I had after being referred to him by someone else. Jeff was able to get with me on the phone me quickly and gave me his time quite readily. He listened to me in full and talked me through the situation and some options that I had, even referring me to someone with different expertise who could also be of help to me. At no point, did he cut me off or try to sell me on his services, which I appreciated. Rather, he told me his opinion honestly and with good intent. I appreciated Jeff's professionalism and willingness to promptly talk to me and for his time. Thanks Jeff!

The Taylor law firm has proven to be professional and caring about the needs of the people. I spoke with Mr Taylor and other staff members over the phone regarding a paperwork that I needed to submit to the court and they were very patient and kind to handled the paperwork. I am very pleased and grateful for their time, and the guidance that they provided. You will not be disappointed with their services.

06 May, 2024 by Ilde cap

I must say that The Taylor Firm is… to say the best and efficient in the judicial process of Baltimore City is an absolute understatement!!!! I was arrested held without bail. I’d hired the firm and within less than a month’s time, I was released without any bail review or court proceedings. As GOD as my witness… out of nowhere I was told to pack up!!!! Not to mention throughout the duration of this incarceration, the team was amazingly informative and empathetic. This firm is a firm that will go far and beyond to get the job done! They WILL work together to work for you. If you’d ask me to describe the Firm… I’d say I’d bet my bottom dollar on The Taylor Firm vs The Cochran Firm any day.

MR.TAYLOR IS ONE OF A KIND! IF I COULD GIVE HIM A MILLION STARS I WOULD! OH AND MS WASHINGTON ANOTHER MILLION STARS. SHE WAS THE FIRST PERSON I SPOKE WITH ABOUT MY BROTHER MURDER CASE AND SHE REALLY CONVINCED ME THAT I CALLED THE RIGHT FIRM.SHE SHARED WITH ME. AND SHE WAS CORRECT! IN SIDE THE COURT ROOM THE STATES ATTORNEY PAINTED A UGLY PICTURE OF MY BROTHER.I WAS VERY EMOTIONAL. BUT WHEN MR. TAYLOR SPOKE!! ALL THE HAIRS ON THE BACK OF MY NECK STOOD UP, MY HEART WAS JUMPING OF JOY!! MR.TAYLOR WON MY BROTHER CASE NOT GUILTY ON ALL 4-COUNTS INCLUDING MURDER AND HANDGUN!! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH MR.TAYLOR FOR BRINGING MY FAMILY BACK TOGETHER!

Phillip is an amazing attorney. I have worked with him on many occasions. He is knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and fights hard for his clients. I would recommend him to anyone.

09 Dec, 2020 by Kaci

During the years I needed Mr. Phillip Chalker expertise on three separate occasions. First, with a tenant that refused to leave the property. Secondly, was with a contract release of a shady management company. Finally, a mutual lease break with multi-tenants. Mr. Chalker's knowledge and quick action was everything I would hope for in a lawyer. All three occasions ended in my favor thanks to him. He's definitely my go to lawyer because I know I will receive focused attention and great results.

Let me start off by saying there are not enough positive adjectives to describe Matt Skipper and his team. I was the unfortunate recipient of an HOA organization that took FULL advantage of the residents because they could. It was an absolute abuse of power to say the least. However, in spite of the years of attempted torment, I was blessed to come across Matt Skipper. Although at that point I had PTSD from dealing with Lawyers, I left his office feeling like I had a chance to right the wrongs that had been done not only to me but others. Firm was communicative, explained things clearly in my opinion, KIND & EMPATHETIC, I never felt like I was bothering them & best of all I felt like they were on my side! !! What an awesome feeling! I hope I neverrr have to go through this again but if I do, I’m calling Matt Skipper. I’ve also sent a handful of potential clients his way. A big thanks to Matt & his team. May god bless you & I pray for continued health, wealth & success!

I had a BK-7 on my TransUnion report. The date is incorrect. It shows from 2016 but BK was in 2012. I also had 60 days late on a car loan from 2019, no collection and charge off Citi bank from 2019 paid. Started rebuilding December 2021 with 522 FICO 8 but none of the strategies worked. I have to look for a credit repair company which my colleague at work recommended to me as a PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST to me. I believed her because I knew she was having a bad credit score but that day she showed me her credit score was above 800+ I contacted them immediately to be honest I was not disappointed. Within 6 days PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST wiped out all baddies on my credit report and increased my FICO SCORE to 811 I’m so EXCITED for what they did for me on my credit report. If you need help in fixing your credit, I will recommend them to you via:

Matthew Skipper was recommended by my daughter. My family and I were being deprived of necessary access to our property that the condo association had no legal right to deprive us of. Matthew and his partner, Jeff Kahntroff, took the case based upon the association's violation of the law and our very difficult situation. Both of these gentleman were clear about their position and our rights. They carefully listened to our concerns and freely displayed empathy as problems cropped up as we moved forward. At every point they worked on our behalf to get resolution to the problem often without being asked to do so. Their talent and expertise were responsible for the excellent resolution of our situation, which was more than we could have hoped for. My entire family is grateful to them for their dedication, efficiency, knowledge, skill and most importantly, their remarkable kindness.

Ben Stirling, all I can say is Thank you!!! I was up against a large DMV car dealership that wanted to treat me a throw away with no resolution on my own. I made that call to his office and ben accepted the case. Ben stepped in and fought for me from day one and never stopped until we won the case 2 years later. Very pleasant and friendly, kept me updated on every inch of the case. My attorney for LIFE!!!

5 star above and beyond what I could have ever imagined during a very rough period after a horrific accident, Ben Stirling not only represented me but cared for my well being when I could not do for myself. From day one meeting for the first time he made sure I was comfortable explaining the process and found a way to address any concerns I had for a good outcome. Very patient & kind. He often went out of his way assisting me when not well connecting with me if impossible when I could not get to him. He reassures you that he will try his utmost best to provide you with a high level of expertise like no other and he did not disappoint. Always on top of his game, very professional, compassionate & on time with a smile on his face. If he says it, he stands by it. Never expected what I received in compensation. The staff continued to lend a helping hand whenever possible in a friendly and caring atmosphere. I am very, very satisfied with Ben and have highly recommended he and the law firm to others. If you connect with him you won't go wrong. Look him up, check him out!!!!!!!!!

My husband just died. He left me various tasks to do for him. There is a problem that prevents me to do one of the tasks. It is about tax. I am not really sure who can I trust, who can I ask. I prayed hard for solution. Then one sleepless night, I was in the front of my computer. I googled " Tax Lawyer near me". The very first name came out was his. I read the reviews . He is their saint and savior! And then I thought he could be my savior too. I hit my keyboards and started to email him. I told him what bothers me. I sought for his professional advice... Hit send and went to sleep consoling and telling myself not to expect and that he may not waste his time to me. I was wrong, on the second day I got email from him saying " Please call me ". I was so surprised and relieved . He is very accommodating, professional and very straight forward . He taught me what to do and even guide me how to do my solution. He spent time and double checked if am doing it right. What a man! He doesn't know me but he accommodated me and didn't take anything in return. Since then, I spread the news. Telling anyone to get this lawyer if they will have problems in tax. Not all heroes wear capes !!

11 Feb, 2019 by James

While it's clear to me that Kamyar deals with much larger cases than mine, he gave us every indication that our state and Federal tax concerns were of the highest priority to him. He has been so thorough, so proactive, so friendly and so helpful in every imaginable way, helping us navigate the process for offers-in-compromise. He made a potentially stressful situation so easy to navigate, ensuring our compliance with state and Federal regulations and arriving at a very desirable outcome, saving my family tens of thousands of dollars. We were amazed at the results and give him our highest recommendation and praise.

Shannon Hammond is an exceptional attorney. We have two children with special needs and had many concerns and questions on how to best plan for them if something happened to us. Shannon answered all our questions, and helped us to determine the best solution for our family. She is kind, patient and professional. We have referred other families in our same situation, and they have had the same experience with Hammond Law. Highly recommend!

14 Sep, 2016 by John and susan

Shannon and her staff could not have been more informative or professional. All options for Elder Estate Planning were presented, , which allowed us to make informed decisions regarding wills, financial power of attorney, and advance directives. The drafts and the final documents were crafted and presented in a timely manner. Shannon thouroughy reviewed and explained all documents prior to execution. Her personal style and expertise was comforting during an emotional period of time in our lives. Reasonable fees add value to this experience. We have referred Hammond Law to a dear friend.

12 May, 2016 by Anonymous

Shannon Hammond did an excellent job for my parents. Her expertise was/is so impressive. Originally, we went to a lawyer in Rockville who didn't do anything and yet charged my parents $3,500. I witnessed the initial experience with both lawyers. On our first meeting Shannon Hammond spent over 2 hours asking questions and with the information created an excel spreadsheet - the information was unique to my parents' situation. One month prior to meeting Shannon Hammond we met with a Rockville lawyer who spent 1/2 hour with us; we knew nothing when we left her office. The Rockville lawyer directed me to provide all information to her; her paralegal filled in an already issued template from the information I provided which took me over a week to gather. The Rockville lawyer did not create anything original (it was a template) whereas Shannon Hammond created the unique excel spreadsheet that pertained directly to my parents' situation. The Rockville lawyer rushed through whatever information she was trying to provide us whereas Shannon Hammond took so much time that even my mother understood what she was presenting to us. My parents will continue to use Shannon Hammond as will the rest of my family. I have already recommended Shannon to friends who will be using her in the future. She's the best and I cannot say enough great things about her especially since I had experienced a horrible lawyer prior to meeting Shannon. Shannon Hammond respects all who speak to her unlike the Rockville lawyer who was always too busy to take calls, etc. I highly recommend using Shannon Hammond for any elder care services but especially if applying for Medicaid.

Mr. Nyombi represented me and some of my colleagues in a class action against my former employer. Mr. Nyombi consulted with me before asking for any money, and what he did request as his retainer fee was quite reasonable. He worked diligently with me and my co-workers to successfully hold the employer accountable for violating MD Labor Laws. We resolved the matter within 8 months, which was extraordinary considering all of the evidence, interviews and research our case required.

These guys are great! They are fair, honest, reasonably priced, and are willing to represent both policy holders and insurance companies. They are true experts in the field of insurance claims and litigation. That's all they do. I would use them again in a blink. They saved me thousands of dollars and headaches. Highly recommended!

Within two days of him handling the matter, the issue was resolved without fines. While his practice area usually focuses on insurance litigation, Mr. Siems was able to cut through Baltimore City's red tape with ease.

Chaim reviewed our financial situation and directed us to tools on the IRS website to determine if we might qualify for a reduction in our taxes. After going through those tools together, we concluded that we weren't candidates for an "offer in compromise". Throughout the process, Chaim was professional, knowledgeable, open and supportive.

Attorney Ortega is an extremely knowledgeable lawyer. She is very methodical right from the get go, and collects as much information as possible to make your case rock solid. She then provides alternatives and recommends the best course of action. I followed her recommendation on a case against debt collectors, and she was able to achieve very favorable results. The payout I received couldn't have come at a better time. What complements her legal knowledge is a genuine sense of empathy and concern for folks going through rough times. Her fees are very fair. She's very good at responding to emails and promptly keeps you posted on the progress of the case. Overall, I'd highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable, responsive and knowledgeable attorney.

Ms. Ortega helped defend me against a debt collection lawsuit from Midland Funding LLC. This lawsuit was the first time I had sought legal help. During my initial meeting, I was already high-strung from thinking about this case. My first impression of Ms. Ortega was that she is experienced and knowledgeable with this type of litigation, and that she commands a strong presence of confidence. I also felt the price for representation was extremely fair. Ms. Ortega even supplied me with very responsive pro bono contacts. After taking day to decide with my spouse, I retained Ms. Ortega. Ms. Ortega made of point of saying she could only recommend certain courses of action and that she could not guarantee any particular result. The strength with which she emphasized this threw me a bit. My spouse, however, had had a lot of experience with legal proceedings as a guardian ad litem and told me this type of language was very common. My spouse also felt Ms. Ortega was extremely confident and signaled she could definitely take some positive action on this case. Therefore, I was fortunate to see not only the legal disclaimers but also into the confidence behind them, from a different lens. I felt Ms. Ortega was clear in communicating the process of the case and what information she needed from me. From my perspective, the case was initially a very emotional situation. Before the outcome, I reflected that I was fortunate to connect with Ms. Ortega for help in this matter and that I was benefiting from the best representation possible. Through Ms. Ortega's work, the case was dismissed with prejudice so Midland cannot re-file the case against me.

Gerald Kelly handled a horrendous, protracted personal tax problem for me and my husband. Mr. Kelly’s conscientious, knowledgeable and responsive representation prevented our personal assets from being levied. He was an aggressive advocate for us with the IRS to have penalties and other fees abated. We would highly recommend his legal services to anyone who seeks highly personalized and competent attention to outstanding problematic tax matters. Clients with tax issues will likely not receive the trustworthy, attentive services Mr. Kelly provides, through an impersonal, toll free number, advertised through infomercial information.

What a Consumer Protection Lawyer Can Do for You

A consumer protection lawyer specializes in safeguarding individuals from unfair, deceptive, or fraudulent business practices. These lawyers advocate for the rights of consumers in disputes with businesses, helping clients recover damages related to fraud, defective products, false advertising, or violation of consumer protection laws. They work to enforce laws that prevent businesses from taking advantage of consumers and ensure that businesses adhere to fair practices.

Whether you’ve been the victim of a scam, sold a faulty product, or misled by false advertising, a consumer protection lawyer can help you navigate legal options and pursue justice.

When Should I Hire a Consumer Protection Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a consumer protection lawyer when you’ve encountered unfair or illegal business practices and need legal assistance to resolve the situation. Common scenarios include:

Fraud or deceptive business practices: If a company misled you into purchasing a product or service under false pretenses, a lawyer can help you seek compensation.
Defective products: If you purchased a product that was unsafe or defective and caused harm, a lawyer can help you file a product liability claim.
False advertising or unfair pricing: A lawyer can assist if you were misled by deceptive advertising or charged for services or products in a way that violates consumer laws.
Debt collection harassment: If you're being harassed by debt collectors or are facing illegal debt collection practices, a consumer protection lawyer can enforce your rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).
Credit report issues: If errors on your credit report are affecting your financial standing, a lawyer can help you resolve disputes with credit reporting agencies or creditors under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).
Predatory lending practices: If you've been subjected to unfair loan terms or practices by payday lenders or mortgage companies, a lawyer can help you challenge the loan and seek a resolution.
Data breaches or identity theft: If your personal information was compromised due to a company’s failure to protect your data, a lawyer can help you recover damages related to the breach.

What Does a Consumer Protection Lawyer Do?

A consumer protection lawyer provides a wide range of services to help protect consumers' rights and seek compensation for harms caused by businesses. Their role may include:

Filing lawsuits: Representing clients in lawsuits against businesses that have violated consumer protection laws, whether through fraud, deceptive practices, or negligence.
Negotiating settlements: Working with businesses or their insurers to negotiate fair compensation for damages caused by unfair practices or defective products.
Pursuing class action lawsuits: When a company harms multiple consumers, a lawyer can represent a group of plaintiffs in a class action lawsuit, seeking collective damages.
Advising on consumer rights: Helping clients understand their rights under various consumer protection laws and advising on the best course of action.
Handling product liability claims: Representing clients who have been injured by defective products and holding manufacturers or retailers accountable for the harm caused.
Defending against debt collection harassment: Enforcing the rights of consumers under the FDCPA and other laws that protect individuals from abusive or unlawful debt collection tactics.
Resolving credit report disputes: Helping clients correct errors on their credit reports that may be causing financial harm or affecting their creditworthiness.

How Are Consumer Protection Lawyers Paid?

Consumer protection lawyers typically use different fee structures depending on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work required. Common payment methods include:

Contingency fee: For many consumer protection cases, such as class actions or product liability claims, lawyers may work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win or settle the case, taking a percentage (typically between 25% and 40%) of the awarded amount.
Hourly rate: For more complex cases or ongoing legal disputes, some lawyers charge by the hour. Hourly rates can range from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
Flat fee: For specific services, such as reviewing a contract or filing a small claim, a lawyer may charge a flat fee that covers all the necessary legal work.
Retainer fee: For clients needing ongoing legal assistance, some lawyers may charge a retainer fee, which is an upfront payment that is billed against as the lawyer works on the case.

It’s important to discuss fees upfront with your lawyer to understand how you’ll be charged and to avoid unexpected costs.

How Much Does a Consumer Protection Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a consumer protection lawyer depends on the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the type of legal service required. General cost estimates include:

Contingency fee cases: For cases handled on a contingency basis, the lawyer typically takes between 25% and 40% of any settlement or damages awarded.
Hourly rates: Hourly rates for consumer protection lawyers generally range from $150 to $500, with higher rates for more experienced attorneys or cases involving complex legal issues.
Flat fees: For specific services like contract reviews or handling a small claims case, flat fees may range from $500 to $2,000, depending on the scope of work.
Class actions: In class action cases, fees are often paid out of the settlement or damages awarded, and individual plaintiffs usually do not have to pay upfront.

Make sure to ask for a clear estimate of costs during your initial consultation to avoid surprises and to understand how much you can expect to pay.

How to Check the Credibility of a Consumer Protection Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable consumer protection lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:

Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
Check for experience in consumer protection: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to confirm they specialize in consumer protection law and have handled cases similar to 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 willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their ability to handle consumer protection cases.
Look for industry affiliations: Membership in organizations like the National Association of Consumer Advocates (NACA) can indicate that the lawyer is committed to protecting consumer rights.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a consumer protection lawyer, come prepared with all relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

Details of the product or service in question: Bring any purchase receipts, warranties, or contracts related to the product or service involved in your claim.
Documentation of your complaint: Provide evidence of your complaint, such as email exchanges with the company, photos of a defective product, or a timeline of events related to the dispute.
Communication with the business or debt collector: If you’ve communicated with the business or debt collector, bring copies of letters, emails, or phone logs.
List of questions: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes for your case.
Information on damages: Be prepared to discuss any financial losses or harm you’ve suffered as a result of the unfair business practices, including medical bills, lost wages, or emotional distress.

By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer understand your situation more effectively and get the best possible legal advice on how to proceed with your case.
