Working with Justin on my medical malpractice case was an absolute pleasure, his confidence and willingness to see things through brought the best result me and my family could have hoped for after I was injured . I highly recommend Justin to anyone out there seeking help in their own case. The staff of Cohen & Malad and in specific, Skylar were absolutely amazing and very knowledgeable, helpful and determined to always answer any concerns I had at anytime for whatever reason . They responded quickly to every email and phone call. My overall experience in this difficult time was completely kept positive and informative thus easing my mind and stress knowing that they had my back !

I highly recommend this law firm for any malpractice / wrongful death needs. They were respectful and professional. They worked tirelessly and diligently to help us resolve the death of our loved one. They never once made us feel that this was just a dollar amount to win for them- they fought for our case up until the final day. The communication skills from the attorneys to the support staff is impeccable and support staff went above and beyond on our behalf. I pray that I would never need this type of service again, but if I did, I would return to Cohen and Malad immediately.

Glaser & Ebbs offer paid parking for the Colts games for a cost of nearly $40 if you pay for it advance on Parkwhiz. When buying a parking pass to a Colts game in advance online, they falsely promote that they have restrooms for paid parkers in their lot...this is only partially true.
The bathrooms (and the building itself) are unlocked before the start of the game. When the game ends, they immediately lock their doors, and even people who paid to park in their lot can't get in to use a bathroom. Don't they realize people might need to use the bathroom before they leave?
Also, they have multiple people help park cars before the game. After the game, there is literally a free for all leaving with no staff in sight to guide people out. Expect to wait an hour just to even get out of their lot and to make it to Interstate 70 when the game is over.

Called to see about getting help and unless your an immigration case they aren't accepting new cases. To me that's discrimination against our country. This is getting ridiculous. My child has been made so uncomfortable by his dad that he hasn't talked to or seen him in almost a yr, and has told me that if he does see him he wants someone else there because his dad makes him uncomfortable in a sexual personal way. And because we aren't immigration these people won't even hear our case or help. Seriously.

Reached out for consultation/potential aid but was immediately dismissed. No one bothered to contact for more information. Was told “call the police if you’re a victim”. How do you ask for a brief explanation then run with only that information? Poor business model. I wouldn’t recommend them if you’re looking for someone to listen and understand.

Took a wee wrong turn - so to speak- in Hendricks County, Indiana while I was stranded at a truck stop. Not the driving kind, either! I’ll spare you readers the details, but I ended up in the slammer for a night with some ugly but not too serious criminal charges , chief among them DUI. I’ve never been in trouble in this fashion so I was not only devastated but n all levels, financially etc- but I was a foreigner in a foreign land. I’m an out-of-state resident (New York City) on top of that, adding additional stress and expense to an already treacherous situation. Of course, I thought the whole affair was a bunch of nonsense, unfortunate the Law, and particularly the District Attorney, strongly disagreed with my position. They intended to throw the book at me. Not only did I face some potential jail time if I tried to flake my way through this one, I was facing certain destruction of my life and work opportunities. Oh I was bankrupt - basically - as well, at the time. It was not awesome, folks, lemme tell you! Add to that woefully, dangerously incompetent Public Defendwr and you have real recipe for trouble. I believe I could have beaten the case at trial, but thanks to her total incompetence - I lost I my opportunity and right to a jury trial. Now would be a good time to tell you all, especially you Noobs: DO NOT EVER GAMBLE YOUR FREEDOM, LIFE, and FUTURE ON A PUBLIC DEFENDER. The criminal justice system is not the place to play games of chance. Burrow the money from the devil if you have to. Things were getting way, way less awesome by the day, and I was woefully despondent. That’s when I fired that public defender and hit the White Pages. I called many attorneys and I had some decent success, but many were outrageously expensive or gave me a bad feeling. I’ve got good horse sense and finally decided on Hessler law - they were reasonably priced, had plenty of trial experience, and took the time to answer all of my questions. Sean Hessler, the head fella over there has a soft and professional manner on the phone and acted as therapist as well as attorney, calming my raging New York neuroses and calmed me down, bringing me back to my senses. He bought me tons of time to get my act and finances together. Like 20 months, I needed it desperately, too. In the end he got me the best deal possible, way Way better than the public defender. He has a lovely secretary who is massively patient and prompt with responses. Even my probation officer let out a long sloooow whistle - so impressed was he with your professional performance the deal you put together. WOW! You got easy, he admired. Yes! I agreed, that Sean Hessler was a REAL SCORE! And he sure was, with his fee plus his weight in gold. I assured him on many occasions that in spite of my passion for liquor, I got a good eye for attorneys. It was far better than what I would have gotten from that dangerously useless but very sweet public defender … though I think she meant well, they just aren’t sufficiently compensated by the system to give you the attention you need. If you slip up on the greater Indianapolis area, go with Hessler Law, you’ll thank me down the line in your head. Your future and reputation hang in the balance as once you’re in the scary and strange world of criminal justice. You couldn’t find a better guide. Nobody made me write this. I took the time because I’m very relieved that I’m on track to have a clean record and didn’t get incarcerated. It could have been so much worse. And I owe it to proper legal counsel I should have gotten from the beginning. Take it from me, folks- A BAD LAWYER IS AN EXPENSIVE PROPOSITION. Get it right the first time with Hessler Law.

He is currently representing me in a felony criminal case and although I don't know him very well and he hasn't been my attorney very long so far I am very impressed with his knowledge and skills as an attorney and find them to be superior of most attorneys that only have 3 years working experience. I will keep posting as the case progresses and we'll see if his representation continues to impress me....Nichole I.

Maria matters represented my X-wife in divorce proceedings. I almost felt sorry for my x with her choice of attorney. Notice I said ALMOST. She’s incompetent at practicing law and loves to tell you what you want to hear.
I wouldn’t recommend her to represent anyone in traffic court much less anything of substance. Do your research on her, you’ll thank me later!

I was mostly pleased with my experience. You definitely have to have patience, especially if you’ve never gone through the process of suing someone. I was involved in an accident where the other driver was at fault, I had an ambulance ride and emergency room visit. I was in pain for over a month, but had minor injuries. I would’ve only gotten about $5,000. I might have not gotten anything at all without them helping me. In the end I got $15,000. Covered my vehicle that was worth less than $5,000. They take a cut, but they did a good job. Worth it. I couldn’t have done it without them.

Thank you Ken.

The attorneys here will definitely take advantage of you, especially if you have zero experience with a lawsuit. They are only worried about getting their cut. During mediation they will pressure you into taking whatever settlement is offered. They did not disclose to me that I had a subrogation lein from my insurance company, not even the day of mediation. Which if i had known i would not have settled. Do not pursue them for any lawsuit. Unfortunately i didnt leave out any facts and my memory is fine, I know exactly what happened. And so do you guys. Very fraudulent and dishonest. I actually have phone records verifying what I'm saying is true and every single piece of paper work I was given from Ken Nunn, none regarding a subrogation lein.

Ms. Wade did an exceptional job with my case. A family friend of mine referred me to her, and it was definitely a blessing. I reached out to her and gave her the details of my case and traffic stop, along with my court date as well. She even DROVE 2 HOURS on my court date to represent me at the location of which my case was. Before I even got into the court house, Ms. Wade had already talked with the prosecution in order to get my case dismissed. We were the first called in front of the judge, and we agreed to terms in order to get the case dismissed. She also got it expunged in a timely manner as well.

Worse than useless. This attorney has to consistently be reminded of points of the case, issues that have been discussed, concerns that (he claims to understand & agree with) yet when it's time to file anything with the Court the entire scenario turns into groundhog's day. Follow up is less than sub-par. Does not file motions with the Court when he specifically says he will within a certain timeframe, then when questioned on the status there are a lot of ???? (i.e. deer in head light moments.) Also, repeated excuses as to delays of case or follow up because of 'sickness', personal family issues, under the weather, attorney for other party is 'non-responsive', etc etc etc. There are no words to adequately detail how completely incompetent this individual is with regards to representing the interests of his clients.

We hired Bryan for estate planning needs once we welcomed a new addition to the family. From the initial contact, Bryan was excellent. He was always prompt in responding to us via email or phone, he provided several real life scenarios to consider when drafting our documents, and was wonderful at listening to our concerns to tailor an estate plan to meet our needs. Bryan made the experience very pleasurable, considering. Moreover, Bryan was able to help us evaluate our small businesses and how estate planning is an important part of the process. Bryan provided us a concierge experience and our family will certainly be using his services again in the future.

You know when you get accused of something you did not do you still need a lawyer. I was arrested on a criminal case . The police were all over me trying to prove their case. Nothing I could say would convince them I didn't do it. Finally they charged me with 4 charges related to the incident they said I was involved in. I went to 3 lawyers and they were all in the 20 to 30,000 range I had heard of this lawyer from one of my friends. I called Dylan and explained my situation and the charges. I went to his office and had a consultation. He explained what he would do and the costs involved. I hired him at a reasonable cost considerate of the types of charges. After hiring Dylan he took charge and did everything he could to help me. He helped me piece together my actions the day of the incident , had his PI go out and interview witnesses , took depositions , and prepared a defense case for me. As it ended up all charges were dropped against me because of Dylan and his expert team I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a good attorney.

Giving Jane 2 stars as she has the potential to be a good lawyer however when she represented me in 2022 as a Keffer-Hirschauer attorney I was disappointed on many occasions . Jane completed a lot of work last minute, which might have been the result of Keffer-Hirschauer overloading their attorneys with too many cases. Regarding spousal maintenance, Jane wasted months before asking the court for a hearing on spousal maintenance, and Jane did not follow through with the request once filed. Jane recommended signing certain financial agreements without communicating the possibility that future hearing dates may be rescheduled or extended, which lead to me being left without funding for many months. Lastly, a few weeks before a scheduled mediation and final hearing date Jane was either fired from Keffer-Hirschauer or left Keffer-Hirschauer on her own, (I have not been given a reason for her departure from either side) which then extended my mediation and final hearing, left me in a desperate financial situation and resulted in an exorbitant amount of legal fee's as I had to start over with a new lawyer.

What a Criminal Defense Lawyer Can Do for You
A criminal defense lawyer provides legal representation to individuals or organizations accused of criminal conduct. If you're facing criminal charges, a defense lawyer will work to protect your rights, build a defense strategy, and ensure you receive a fair trial. Their primary goal is to reduce or dismiss charges, secure an acquittal, or negotiate a favorable plea deal.
Criminal defense lawyers have extensive knowledge of criminal law and court procedures. They investigate your case, identify weaknesses in the prosecution's evidence, and represent you in court, ensuring that you have the best possible defense.
When Should I Hire a Criminal Defense Lawyer?
It’s crucial to hire a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible if you are facing any criminal charges. Some situations in which you should seek legal representation include:
- Arrest or police questioning: If you've been arrested or are under investigation, hiring a lawyer early on can prevent self-incrimination and protect your rights during police questioning.
- Felony charges: Crimes such as murder, assault, drug trafficking, or robbery carry severe penalties, including long prison sentences. A defense lawyer is essential in these cases.
- Misdemeanor charges: Even for less serious offenses like DUI, theft, or simple assault, a lawyer can help reduce penalties, negotiate alternatives to jail, or get charges dismissed.
- Plea negotiations: If you’re considering a plea bargain, a lawyer can evaluate the deal, advise you on its consequences, and negotiate for more favorable terms.
- Probation or parole violations: If you’ve been accused of violating probation or parole, a lawyer can defend you against additional penalties or revocation.
- Juvenile offenses: For minors charged with criminal acts, a criminal defense lawyer can protect their future by minimizing legal repercussions or keeping the case in juvenile court.
What Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Do?
Criminal defense lawyers provide comprehensive legal services to protect their clients’ rights throughout the criminal justice process. Their duties include:
- Case evaluation and investigation: Reviewing the evidence, interviewing witnesses, and investigating the facts to develop a strong defense strategy.
- Legal advice: Advising you on your rights, the charges you’re facing, and potential defense strategies, including whether to take a plea deal or go to trial.
- Negotiating plea bargains: Working with prosecutors to negotiate a plea deal that could reduce charges or minimize penalties.
- Court representation: Representing you in all court hearings, including bail hearings, pretrial motions, trials, and sentencing hearings.
- Filing motions: Filing motions to dismiss charges, suppress evidence, or reduce bail, depending on the specifics of your case.
- Trial preparation and defense: Preparing a defense strategy and presenting arguments, evidence, and witnesses during trial to contest the prosecution's case.
- Appeals: If you are convicted, a defense lawyer can appeal the conviction or sentence, arguing errors in the trial process or legal rulings.
How Are Criminal Defense Lawyers Paid?
Criminal defense lawyers generally charge clients in one of three ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Payment structures include:
- Flat fee: For straightforward cases (e.g., minor misdemeanors), some lawyers charge a one-time flat fee that covers all aspects of the defense.
- Hourly rate: For more complex or ongoing cases, lawyers may charge by the hour, with rates varying based on the lawyer’s experience and geographic location.
- Retainer fee: In cases where extensive work is expected, the client may pay a retainer fee upfront. The lawyer then bills against that retainer for their work on the case.
The cost of criminal defense services can vary greatly, so it’s important to discuss fees during your initial consultation.
How Much Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a criminal defense lawyer depends on several factors, including the severity of the charges, the complexity of the case, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost guidelines are:
- Misdemeanor cases: For relatively minor offenses, such as a DUI or petty theft, a flat fee may range from $1,500 to $5,000.
- Felony cases: More serious charges, such as assault or drug trafficking, can range from $10,000 to $100,000 or more, depending on the complexity and duration of the case.
- Hourly rates: For cases billed by the hour, lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on their expertise and the case's location.
- Additional expenses: You may also be responsible for other costs, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, or the cost of private investigators.
Be sure to clarify the lawyer’s fee structure and any potential additional costs during your consultation.
