After my car accident, I consulted multiple lawyers in the area to see who can help me fight my case. After speaking with Nick and his team at Nicolet Law, I decided to go with their services because Nick basically broke down and explained how the process is going to go and shared with me examples of his other clients that had similar cases and roughly about what their settlement was. Nick and his team literally took care of everything, besides the documents that i need to provide them. The time from my accident all the way to the time of settlement was just about 10 and half months. Half of that time was due to me still receiving treatment for my injuries. That is WAY faster than the experience i had with my mom's accident, working with a different company, which took 2 years. My settlement was in a decent amount as well. I highly recommend Nick and his team at Nicolet Law. Thank you Nick and Team for your services!

I don’t have words to express how grateful I am to have stumbled into working with Doug to buy a house. If you are looking to buy or sell a house and are looking for someone to help you through the process, stop NOW and call Doug to request him to take you on as a client. Trust me, you — and your bank account — will thank me later! Doug is the antithesis of the stereotypical realtors who are pushy, sneaky, selfish, and intimidatingly flamboyant. Doug is a highly principled individual. He probably has more knowledge about real estate industry, including all the shady practices employed by realtors and broker companies, than anyone else in this country. Doug is on a mission to upend the real estate industry for the better, and he lives and breathes that mission while working with his clients. He goes out of his way to figure out ways to disincentivise himself from doing anything that favors him more than his clients. In fact, his dedication and passion to this cause of radically improving real estate industry for consumers led to the recent major changes in how the industry will operate going forward! While working with us, Doug was quick to provide all the relevant information about houses we were interested in. He took time to explain things to watch out for while touring houses, and helped us create the winning strategy for getting our offer accepted for a house we love (there were 9 offers on the house!). Doug is incredibly honest (almost to a fault) and always gave us the complete picture on the risks associated with any move we made. On top of all this, Doug returned a bigger portion of his commission than we were expecting! Working with him was just an absolutely incredible experience, and I feel very lucky. On the personal front, Doug is very fun to talk to, and through this process, we ended up connecting about a lot of topics other than buying a house. At the end, I’d just say that I couldn’t have asked for a better house, and I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor/attorney in this journey.

My wife and I worked with Doug to purchase a house, and he was amazingly patient, knowledgeable, and helpful. We had a long list of requirements and considered many properties. During this extended search, Doug offered lots of great advice, and his research skills were much appreciated. In a tough market for buyers, he stuck with us through a couple of unsuccessful bids until we finally clinched a deal. During the negotiations, Doug was a huge advocate for us, and we're so grateful for his expert assistance. We're also thankful for the home inspector and title company he suggested. I should also note that Doug is a great communicator and very personable. Even during times of great stress, he was calm and coolheaded. In short, Doug is a superb real estate attorney, and he has our highest recommendation!

08 Jan, 2024 by Lucy ross

I hired Doug to help me sell my townhome and it truly was a seemless process and I saved a ton of unnecessary selling costs that I was quoted from a standard realtor. Doug is very knowledgeable about the real estate market and can walk you through everything you need to do to make it happen.

I was desperately humiliated to need a bankruptcy lawyer. David was completely non judgemental and has been very kind as well as competent. Due to my disabilities, I was physically unable to get to the court hearing. David was able to arrange for me to have a telephonic hearing which helped me tremendously. I am very grateful to him and recommend him to anyone needing help with the legal matters he handles.

09 Dec, 2018 by Anonymous

David took my case when no lawyer in Duluth, MN (none, zip, zilch) wanted to touch it. That speaks volumes for his ethics. David and his team made an incredibly daunting task easy and comfortable. They kept things on track, are very organized, collected needed information, were always kind to me, always explained things when I needed. I never felt judged. David and team are incredible at their work. Intelligent group of people. Highly recommend!

31 Jul, 2015 by Ed

Not only is David a great lawyer and works hard on your behalf but he cares about his clients. He goes over and beyond. Seriously! This guy will work harder for you than anyone. I know this personally... he did for my case and its 9 months later and he is still taking my questions. He is always there for me and my family. He is a very honest and stand-up guy. You don't need a lawyer in an expensive office. If you want a good person that will have your best interest at heart then give David a call. I have had other lawyers in the past, but none like David. You will be amazed at what he and his great staff will do for you. That's another thing you should know... This firm as an incredible staff and they are a joy to work with.

Tim is a very knowlegeable, friedly, and dedicated professional. My little brother got into a business trouble last year. I helped him find Tim as his lawyer. My brother's English is not very good. Tim is so patient and considerate. He was always there to help him out. Throughout the process, Tim and his assistant Even had provided outstanding service and help. My brother is extremely happy with Tim and Even, as well as with their service. Thank you Tim and Even for taking care of my little brother.

Another lawyer, who is a family friend, strong recommended that I hire Tim. During our first meeting, he was able to explain the charges and what needed to be done before my next court date. He talked to me like a friend and used non-legal terms to explain the issues and our options. I was very happy with the outcome and can highly recommend his office.

I was served papers a few months ago on an old credif card that went to collections. I found Randall online in a quick search online and sent a request for a quote. He got back to me immediately. He handled everything quickly and made sure I understood everything surrounding the case. The experience was 100% stress free knowing I had him in my corner. He even worked during his vacation! I am extremely pleased with the outcome and quick responses. I hope to never have to hire Randall again, but would not hesitate to if needed. I will be recommending him to anyone that needs a consumer debt lawyer.

12 Apr, 2017 by Heather

The day my doorbell rang and I was being served papers stating I was being sued by a law firm representing and old school loan I had forgotten. I thought there was no way this was going to end good, I was a nervous wreck! Being recommended to Randall was the best recommendation! From the day I met him he was very understanding not judgmental on the situation, he was very personable and friendly and even though I had no idea how this would turn out he put me at ease. This at times was a very emotional scary process, but every time I felt this way he went out of his way to call me and make me feel at ease. He took every step possible to make sure everything about my case was legit as in our day in age there are alot of scams out there. He helped me understand my rights, my options and ultimately in the end he helped me receive the best deal I could have gotten. We settled this before it went any further than being served those papers, no court and no judgement. He is very honest and very responsive, he was on vacation and still went out of his way to take care of my case in a timely manner. I would highly recommend him he is amazing in every way! And hopefully I never have to go through this again, but if I did he would be my number 1 pick.

I was sued two years ago by a well known predatory debt collector. I contacted and hired Randall to represent me. I feel he provided me the best possible resolution to my matter, and I couldn't have been more satisfied. Additionally, Randall has been receptive and responsive to any questions or concerns that I have had since that time. I would highly recommend him. I believe he was the best representative I could have had to help me resolve my legal issue.

He clearly knew what he was talking about and despite the fact the call was not going to end in a client for him ( at least for the time being), he still gave out a few nuggets to try to help us try save our case on our own. If we ever need Todd’s services in the future, we are absolutely calling him again to retain him.

I hired Mark for defense against a claim brought by my out of state BD based on an indemnity clause in my RR Agreement for loss resulting form FINRA arbitration panel award to former client who lost money in a private placement, alleging misrepresentation among other claims. Mark drafted an excellent Answer asserting firm legal and equitable defenses, challenging the efficacy and applicability of indemnity clause, among other confidential arguments. Mark secured my home-state forum in contravention to contract forum clause, and after extensive negotiations prompted by detailed and strategic discovery requests, Claimant BD settled the arbitration for a confidential amount with which I was very satisfied. Mark was aggressive in my defense and I would highly recommend him to anyone needing professional legal services. 10 out of 10 for performance and commitment to my case!!!

03 Aug, 2016 by Tim

I purchased a large agency and Mark help me with purchase agreement loan documents and non compete clause. He has been great to work with over the past 6 years. Mark has also helped September and I set up an estate plan that we are very comfortable with. He has been a great asset to me as a small business owner.

22 Mar, 2016 by Robert

My FINRA broker dealer terminated me alleging I, and others I controlled, engaged in document alterations. FINRA and the MN DOC made inquiry into my conduct. Mark shadow authored my submission that more accurately showed what had happened and put me in a more favorable light. He was incredibly valuable while appearing for an on-the-record interview by making sure I answered questions to my favor. He is prepared and thorough, and has a personal caring that you do not get in a big firm.

I hired Adam when I had a debt collector threatening me, charging me illegal fees and telling me they'll hack into my bank account, trying to collect a debt which was actually my husband's debt to begin with. I reached out to several attorneys and I selected Adam over more experienced ones because he was really kind and reassuring. Over a period of time as Adam worked on my case, I was very pleased with his progress, he got me a really good settlement and he is absolutely the most wonderful attorney. I wish him all the best of luck in his career, he is not just a good attorney but he is also a wonderful and kind person. At a time when I was juggling suits with several attorneys, Adam became my favorite.

04 Aug, 2016 by Nahor

Attorney Adam Richard Strauss is an amazing lawyer. He helped me through a settlement case that i thought had no leg to move forward from speaking with other lawyers and he was able to proceed with the case with no issues and exceeded my expectations. His knowledge, strong professional work ethic, passion and attention to detail are off the charts and i would highly recommend him to family and friends without a second thought. He put in a lot of time in my case (more than we originally discussed) and his price stayed the exact same and so did his efforts. I am extremely grateful for his services and its the best decision i made to hire Adam. Once again, Thank you!

03 Aug, 2016 by Mike

Adam handled my case with care, sensitivity, and made me feel like I had a real advocate. He is the epitome of a great attorney who has his clients' - and frankly ALL consumers' - rights at the forefront of his mind at all times. He is an excellent communicator and helped me understand the process while managing expectations (which he would eventually knock out of the park!). Lastly and most importantly, he helped me out of a difficult situation and my life is forever changed as a result. I find it difficult to find the words to properly recommend him to anyone in need of representation. He is simply THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS.

Jared Miller is the very best, Tribal attorney I have ever met. When I first contacted Mr. Miller, I left a message, within a couple of hours he called me back. Mr. Miller listened to my entire story without interruption, he is an incredible listener to my legal issues. It is after, I had expressed your concerns, he begins to focus in what the issues real are, confirming with me as we further our dialog. Mr. Miller really cares about my legal problems, never showing, to pressure me at all, he does not work that way, like other attorneys have in my past. Mr. Miller's legal acumen, knowledge of the law is far advanced & superior. In other words, he knows what he is talking about. I have found my experience with attorney Jared Miller as been an incredibly wonderful experience. I would highly recommend him to family & friends. He is a 5 star attorney! Respectfully, Rod

Beyond ethical. I wanted him to do something that he made clear he would not do, however, he took a look at my case and made multiple suggestions as to how to win and as he says "achieve my objective"!!! And he did. He took an approach that even the judge had never seen. Not only did we, actually he won, nothing went to my criminal or traffic record. HE IS AWESOME...

He was extremely compassionate and caring through the whole process!

Ryan provided significant help when I was dealing with having taking over the financial affairs of a seriously ill relative with significant medical debt. Responding to collection agencies pursuing collections of this debt was well outside of my comfort zone.

I highly recommend Ryan Peterson for experienced counsel in dealing with debt issues.

I hired Don McNeil to assist my business partner and I on a very sensitive matter involving a lawsuit threatened against us individually and against our company. Don immediately jumped into our case reassuring and educating us on the legal process related to the frivolous allegations made against us. He let us know what we could expect in a situation like ours. Defending against a lawsuit is every business owner's worst nightmare. With Don's exceptional representation, we came out of a very difficult situation completely whole and unscathed. I would highly, strongly recommend Don to any business owner facing a potential lawsuit. He is caring, compassionate and extremely service-oriented. But beyond that he is an excellent legal strategist. He defines what it means to advocate for a client. I have worked with many lawyers and Don is definitely a cut above the rest!

I hired Don McNeil in 2011 for help with defending me against a non-compete case. And soon after that, my business partner and I used him to help with our partnership documents. When I first met Don, we formed an immediate repore which has lead to a long-term client/attorney relationship that I still depend on to this day. Don is a strong advocate for me and my business. In fact, because of my belief in Dons abilities, I will continue to engage him long-term for my business needs as well as refer my friends, family and clients to him. He is well educated, extremely intelligent, very experienced - and has a great sense of humor to boot! Honestly, I think the world of Don and still tell people that I'm grateful for the unfortunate situation I was in back in 2011 because it introduced me to Don McNeil who I am extremely grateful to call my attorney and my friend.

Joe helped us navigate several hurdles and challenges in regards to child support, post decree issues and navigating the family law system. He also helped us with a conciliation court case. He was a bright spot in our dark experience in the family law world. He is down to earth, genuine, and calming in the midst of the chaos of legal drama. Even when busy, he always responded to us via email or phone right away to talk through the latest challenge we were up against and create a strategy/plan. Before we met Joe, we were working with another attorney and ultimately had to walk away from her because she was making matters worse by stirring things up so that I would need her services forever--and she'd be paid forever! Working with Joe was the opposite experience. Not only is he incredibly knowledgeable, professional and efficient, but he also truly listened and understood the nuances and complexities of the issues. He could follow us throwing out all kinds of information at once and he would synthesize it beautifully and truly “get it”. He then provided a pathway for an outcome that was best for our child and our family in a straightforward and realistic way. His communication and listening skills are impossible to beat as well as his genuine personality. He genuinely wanted to see things work out for our child and our family so we didn’t need to be caught up in the family law system. I have yet to meet another lawyer that genuinely wants to see that for his clients. All of his efforts ended up helping us ultimately do a stepparent adoption! He is the BEST OF THE BEST and we are forever grateful to him.

An associate of John Kelly at Hanft Fride, PA, Mr. LaCoursiere helped successfully defend me in a civil suit. He initiated and finalized very thorough legal case precedent analyses and memoranda of law, as well as interviewing affiants and securing affadavits. His communications with me were timely and helpful. I think he is polite, capable, competent, professional, painfully honest, objective, articulate, and honorable. I'm convinced he'll mature to become one of Minnesota's best lawyers.

He represented me in a very comple commercial matter that involved numerous depositions and substantial motion practice. He was always prepared and had a great rapport with the judge. Very laid back and easy going but aggressive in court and in dealing with opposing counsel. If you want a great lawyer that doesn't have the big firm mentality and charge the big firm fees, I highly recommend him.

Several years ago my company was involved in five lawsuits involving patent litigation and patent ownership, and Darren handled all of these cases. We are very happy with the outcome, which allowed us to move forward with our business.

Jesse Kibort - is a fabulous attorney, having all of the attributes you look for in an attorney: he is smart, intuitive, has legal chops from years and years of experience, and he is super personable. What separates JEsse from the rest of the civil bar, usual lawyers, is his understanding of his client's psychology. He grasps the anxiety with which folks experience in civil litigation. He soothing demeanor and his attentiveness to clients questions, emails, text messages separate him from all others. During his representaiton of me, Jesse ensured I was educated about the law, he was readily available day and night for direct communciation (text and phone) and he made sure I was comfortable by setting realistic expectations and then he followed through. I highly recommend Jesse (on a side note as a practicing criminal attorney I refer many clients to Jesse due to my positive experince with him.

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.
