I found Alyssa here through Avvo. I sent multiple personal and detailed messages regarding my horrific family law matter. Alyssa sent me a message very quickly and answered all of my concerns in an honest and caring fashion. I retained Alyssa after working with two previous attorneys and with the need of her representation for my court date which was only four weeks away. Alyssa accomplished more in four weeks to help me than my other two attorneys did in two years!
Alyssa is very honest and tells you the good, the bad and the ugly which I love and appreciate. She goes above and beyond to answer the tremendous amount of emails I send her.
We ended up getting everything I wanted during our hearing. She literally blew me away while I’m court and when it comes to a horrific custody battle, she truly put my children’s needs and my desires front and center and fought for my family in the most impressive and short amount of time.
I’m LAS Vegas, there isn’t another family law attorney that can hold a candle to Alyssa. If you are in a position where you ever need a family law attorney, contact Alyssa today! You will truly have your family in the hands of an angel!
Thank you for everything, Alyssa. Words will never be able to express my gratitude to you in words!

Attorney Brown was excellent! From the first call after my arrest and throughout the process, Phil did what he said he would do, explained the process to me, and in the end, I wasn't even charged! Phil is highly competent, and I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again.

My family, like so many, battled with a drug addicted child. The addiction led to criminal behavior. We never stopped fighting for our son for the 11 years of hardcore heroin addiction. Multiple times he was incarcerated for both petty and serious crimes. We hired Philip Brown to help on multiple cases over a period of 5 years. In each instance he prevailed in our son's favor. These victories gave our son an opportunity to be rehabilitated rather than just incarcerated. Today our son is healthy and clean for almost two years. Working a steady job and preparing to get married to a lovely young lady. Never give up hope! Thank you, Phil, for the part you played in his rehabilitation. I can't recommend Phil Brown enough. He is competent, caring and effective. his level of attentiveness was impressive.

Mr Yampolsky was referred to me by a friend and as soon as I called he got right on the case. He and staff were very friendly and put me at ease from the beginning. Everything was taken care of in a very expedient and professional manner.
I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome and not hesitate to refer Mr Yampolsky to anyone in a similar situation.
Thanks to all that assisted in my case as my life is returning to normal after such a stessful incident that could have ended much worse otherwise.
Sincerely,

I just wanted to say that Mace has a fantastic team overall. This is the second attorney team I hired to defend me for my case and Mace's team blew the other team out of the water with regards to helpfulness, approachability, accessibility, and timeliness of responses . Their paralegals answer e-mails with very helpful information and always in a super timely manner. They're comforting and supportive. Mace's partner Jason jumps in whenever Mace is unavailable and they never leave you hanging. They continue to assist me after my sentencing over a year later. I would hire this team again.

As a longtime attorney in Nevada, I have known Adam both professionally and personally for years. I can honestly say that not only is he great at his job, but he is also one of the most liked attorneys in Las Vegas. If you are like most people, you (understandably) hate attorneys. If you ever meet Adam, your opinion will change, at least as to him personally. Prosecutors and judges like and greatly respect Adam, which is crucial. Both professionally and personally, I have never heard a negative comment about Adam.

Amazing service, very responsive and helpful during the process. I would highly recommend. I moved out of state after my dui occurred and Adam made sure I could complete any required courses online, which I preferred anyways. He made sure I was comfortable and understood everything that was going on. Costs were minimal and I would have gladly paid more for such great service.

Vincent Ginn is an incredible attorney. He is attentive and compassionate. He took the time to address all my concerns and provided will thought out responses and made sure I was comfortable before proceeding through my case. He has 20 years experience and it shows. He even continued to assist unpayed after my case was dismissed. I would highly recommend him in need of a defense attorney. Don't waste your money or time on any other attorney.

I had a Ticket for rear ending someone. No damage, no-one was hurt but I got an estimated $1100 fine for not having NV license plates and $250 fine for tapping the bumper. Went to court myself (which I do not recommend) and like a dummy pleaded not guilty. No other Lawyer would take my case. Vincent Ginn is my hero! He went to pretrial for me and reduced my ticket to $75 and no points! I recommend you hire Vincent the first time. Never go to court on your own! Thanks Vincent!

Mr. Ginn helped me - (A disabled 69 year old 'two-time' stroke victim) to understand every step of my Dilemma for being arrested for falling on my room mate who called Police and told them I hit him (who had been in jail several times because of BUYING DRUGS!) AND THE POLICE BELIEVED HIM! I have never hit anyone in my life!

I reached out to several employment attorneys and found that many of them only asked me basic questions during our phone conversations. However, Davis Amberlea stood out by offering me an in-person consultation where they thoroughly reviewed all of my paperwork. Not only did they spend an hour with me, but Davis Amberlea also provided valuable advice on my case. Their friendly and informative service exceeded my expectations. Needless to say, I am extremely satisfied with their exceptional assistance.

I had talked to three or four attorneys before being lucky enough to find Jherna. The first three or four were more interested in "fighting" to prolong the issue. I wanted to resolve it. Jherna tapped the brakes and told me to send her my rental lease. We had an issue with a commercial lease and she went above and beyond what I expected. It didn't end as I would have liked because the landlord was deliberately depositing our rent after the 5th to nullify the lease. They also had written what she called "the nastiest rental contract she'd ever seen". Later, she reviewed a "business interruption" insurance policy and said there were sections that were too vague that gave them a loophole. She advised I write an addendum closing these loopholes. I did and every insurance company after that refused to agree to those terms, meaning they were going to take my money but not cover any damages for "acts of god" "viruses" and "government shutdowns (9/11)".

She will most definitely go above and beyond to make sure all of your needs are met beyond your expectations. She is very caring and trustworthy; will always put you first.

Jim represented me in a personal injury, car accident case. I was rear-ended by someone who was not paying attention and sustained major neck, shoulder and back injuries. He was able to fight the insurance company and I was able to recover a very large amount which allowed me to pay all my bills and set aside enough that will enable me to have a comfortable retirement. This guy is the best. He returns calls, is on top of his cases, and is always willing to fight hard for his clients.

A divorce judgement that needed to be moved to Nevada, alimony in arrears and current alimony all had to be resolved. I could not have asked for a better firm than what I found at Christopher Tilman's office. The interactions I had with Kathy and Paulina were excellent and calming. This was a stressful situation for me and I always got an answer, either by phone or email. My interactions with Christopher were illuminating and honest. I never felt ignored. I got a bill every month with fees used out of my retainer, which had all been spelled out during my first consultation. I would hire the firm again in a heartbeat.

You’ll trust him immediately. He knows how to calm you down and joke a bit at times but get serious at times when it’s required.
You can tell immediately he doesn’t “need” your business. Zero salesmanship. He is priced well below others who will smile, schmooze, then disappear as soon as the check clears.
Ted helped me with a DUI. My second. I paid my first attorney more than 5X Ted’s fee (for a simpler case). Ted spent at least 5X more time with me and he seemed much more prepared. The results were as good as possible with the circumstances and Ted could certainly charge a lot more (which I’m certain he knows). That’s just not how he rolls. Total class act.
Ted was referred to me by a mutual friend who is also an attorney and I’m so grateful I bit the bullet and told my friend the circumstances - it was worth the mild embarrassment for a top notch attorney.

Mr. Williams is the only lawyer I ever heard of who gives you honest advice even if that means he will not get your business. My nephew was in big trouble and instead of trying to charge my family thousands of dollars, he advised us to stay with our public defender who Mr. Williams knew and said was an excellent attorney. I've heard that Mr. Williams is kind of rich so he does not need to rip people off like other lawyers do.

Attorney Tatum was very helpful in advising me of my rights and responsibilities when I was struggling with discrimination at work. I was very afraid on how to proceed, and although he advised me I didn't yet have a claim, he told me what to do in order to protect my rights if the behavior from my supervisor continued. I will certainly visit him again.

After being t-boned, my car was totaled.

I have personally hired Mr. Wirth and his team when I was involved in a horrific auto accident last year. They are absolutely Amazing and very knowledgeable with the law!
They delivered both professional and personalized service.
You can count on him to listen to your concerns, explain the law and process, understand your rights, and guide you through excellent service while obtaining the best outcome. Mr. Wirth and his team are very attentive and you don't feel like your just another file or number that gets lost. They are very attentive to your needs and they minimize all your stress from the paperwork, to speaking with insurance companies, organizing all your doctor records, and really manage your case so I was able to focus on getting myself back on track. They even work early and later hours and accommodated my schedule. They even called me after I got out of work at 5PM to speak about my specific needs. They are very attentive and treated me with great respect that was greatly appreciated and noticed. Thank you Mr. Wirth and your team for really taking care of me! You guys are the BEST =)

Emily will fight for you like you were one of her family members. She fought rigorously against the District Attorney’s office on my behalf and continues to do so on a daily basis. My case had very unusual circumstances and Emily has exhausted every resource fighting for dismissal of my matter in both Las Vegas Justice Court and District Court. God forbid, I ever found myself in need of a criminal defense attorney again in the future I would immediately know who to call.

Alex De Castroverde and his entire staff went above and beyond for me both before AND AFTER my case was closed. His firm represented me during my DUI case and did so in a timeless, efficient manner. There was never a time where my phone calls went unanswered or my emails were not replied to. Along with handling my DUI case they minimized and dismissed other traffic violations that I had prior, saving me thousands of dollars (and did so without my asking). I could not be more grateful to Alex as well as every other dedicated member of his staff.

My father was rear-ended while completely stopped at a light; clearly, the other driver wasn’t paying attention at all and hit my dad’s car. We tried just going through insurance initially but it seemed like we couldn’t get their time of day. After a friend of the family told us about Tony and his firm, we called and they actually took good care of us. From the initial consultation with ernesto, to the countless phone calls we had to make to the firm for updates and treatment adjustments, each time we didn’t feel like we were being ignored or put off.
If you actually want a lawyer, and a team, that will help you every step of the way, call Sgro and Roger. My dad and I had never used an attorney before and it was a good experience, especially because all of the losses we had were compensated.

I was in an accident and didn't think that Sgro & Roger did personal injury cases; I went to their website and found that they recently began taking on PI cases so I decided to give the office a call. I was impressed with how nicely I was treated by the attorneys, specifically Mr. Sgro and Meredith Weiner.
They made me feel like my case was just as important as the rest of the cases they must've been working on. Plus I got reimbursed for the cost of my medical treatment and damage to my vehicle. I'd recommend this office to anybody in the city.

Several years ago I worked with Tony Sgro on a small criminal matter. He and his associates were always on top of my case and never let anything slip. It was very easy to get ahold of the firm and definitely worth the money to get a private attorney and not an appointed attorney. Considering going back to his firm to get my records sealed. Great experience.

Trying to find the words to write this review has taken me months. As I didn’t know where to start. So I’m going to start by saying THANK YOU. From the depths of my heart. Your service and work to help me will forever be ingrained into my life. You helped and believed in my HOA case from day one. Atty. Michael Anello is intelligent and dedicated. He is driven and amazing! I always felt like a priority and my case was handled exceptionally. He understands my situation and genuinely cares. He takes the initiative on how to progress and move forward in great detail in "The Settlement letter." He has a sharp legal mind and is paired with great communication skills. I highly recommend his services. I am grateful that I found attorney Anello.

I met Mr Anello the day after a DUI arrest. I was feeling hopeless going into the office but during the meeting he explained what was going on with my case and my options so I left feeling confident that I had a good competent attorney. Along with the DUI charges we also discussed how the arrest could effect a family law case that I was involved in at the time and his knowledge about those matters were a huge help to me. I only had to meet with him twice before choosing a plan that worked for my personal situation to move forward with my life without spending years in court or becoming financially exhausted. At the end of my case, the results were better than I initially expected so I was very satisfied with Mr. Anello’s work on my case. I was happy that I had found him and I don’t think any other attorneys in my town would have had the same knowledge and experience to help me with all my issues.

After contacting other attorneys who wanted to charge me a consulting fee, I was referred to Alexis by a friend. I never really have understood a consulting fee. I feel the purpose of meeting with an attorney is an interview process to determine whether you believe that person would be a good fit and to decide if you choose to hire them or not. After contacting Alexis I made an appointment with her. Alexis is very friendly and outgoing. She's easy to speak with and communicates very well. During our meeting Alexis explained the benefits and protection that a trust provides. She outlined the entire process and disclosed all the cost involved. At that point I decided to retain her services. Alexis and her staff were in constant contact from that point on via email and they were always available by phone as well.
Planning and forecasting your future needs is not as simple as you made think until you have to do it. Alexis and her team clearly understood this more than I and were prepared to guide myself and my wife through it simplifying the process and easing the stress.
I always have a feeling of confidence when dealing with professionals and Alexis did not disappoint. I would highly recommend consulting with Alexis to see what she can do for you.

At first I thought I could represent myself in my custody trial. After finding out the hard way after a couple of the hearings, how stressful and emotional it is, I decided to find a lawyer to represent me. After a few different consultations, I found that Mike (who was referred to me by a friend who also had won her case while being represented by Mike) really was the most honest & ethical out of the ones I interviewed. He was completely honest with me in regards to expectations, and I could definitely tell his knowledge from his years and years of experience. I decided to go with Mike, and I couldn't be any happier. Fast forward a year and a half later, we won our case. To top it off, his assistant, Danay, is really the nicest and best. She helped me so much throughout this, with whatever question I had. She was patient, personable, knowledgeable, and friendly. I can go on and on about how great Danay is :) Both of them are really a great team! I've already recommended them to a friend of mine going through a custody battle as well, and will continue to recommend people to them, without a doubt.

Ben is AMAZING!
I had a felony warrant that I have had since 2017. I called three different law offices before I called Bens law office, and all of them were in a rush and made me feel like a burden. I didn’t even feel comfortable asking any questions because I felt so rushed. It felt like they just wanted me to pay them their fee but not ask too many questions.
But when I called and spoke to Ben, I knew immediately that he was the attorney that I would be hiring because he was patient, and explained everything in great detail. Not only that but he was just a breathe of fresh air after speaking to the other law firms. He seriously went above and beyond and just gave me a sense of relief. He didn’t make any false promises and he did exactly what he said he would do. I am BEYOND satisfied with the services of this law office and would definitely recommend them to anyone who is needed legal assistance. My warrant is now clear and Ben did everything that he said he would do.
They also kept me in the loop every step of the way. Amazing service and with every penny. Cheaper than the other law firms that I spoke with too.

I am really thankful I hired Paola for my case. Paola took the time to get to know me and understand my legal issues and how they would impact me both short and long term. She answered all of my questions and walked me through the legal process. I appreciate her frankness as she never held back explaining the best and the worst case scenarios and everything in between. Paola’s professionalism, attention to detail, and responsiveness helped me mentally and emotionally get through this difficult time. Paola and her team were always available via phone or email. Paola’s knowledge, skills, and experience of the courts did in fact get me the best possible outcome for my case. I am very grateful to Paola and her team.

I found myself falsely charged with a serious criminal offense. A conviction would have been devastating and due to my profession the plea offer presented by the district attorney’s office would have ended my career. Paola Armeni recognized that this was not an option and she walked me through this very difficult process. She was relentless in fighting for me to clear my name. She demonstrated an exceptional knowledge of the law and showed great skill in dealing with the district attorney’s office. She ultimately resolved my case without needing to go to trial. I am truly grateful to have found Mrs. Armeni and hiring her was the best decision I could have made. In addition, she demonstrated a great deal of compassion for what I was going through and was willing to communicate with me on a regular basis. You will never regret hiring this lawyer.

Hard working, honest, ethical, kind and caring! But don't be mistaken - Ms. Paola is one tough adversary - NOT afraid to take on the establishment when they are wrong! Handled our Civil Rights case that was drawn out by the defendants. She not only prevailed at a jury trial, but twice at the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. A real professional. Through her hard work and dedication we ended up with most favorable results.

I've known Mike for thirty five years. We've retained him for numerous sensitive legal matters over the years. The matters ranged from Real Estate, Trusts, complicated parental/family issues and General counsel advice. Each case resulted in a positive outcome. He is a great source for honest advice. Most recently I called to discuss an extremely sensitive matter regarding my chronically ill, young adult son. Mike was attentive, sensitive and informative. It's best to say Mike is the real deal. He has a huge heart and is genuine to the core.

Michael Davidson is a wonderful lawyer I had a very sensitive matter regarding my ex not providing additional support for my children needed to continue their college education. It was very complicated because Mr. Davidson not only had to understand Nevada law but also Pennsylvania law. He was able to utilize case law in both states to allow my children to pursue their college education. Without him this would not have happened. Trust me you can not go wrong in hiring him and getting legal advice.

My specific legal needs (family law/divorce) required aggressive well-organized representation. The marriage was long and invested with children involved. My divorce required a tough attorney. Karen Connolly listened to my case, advised me of my rights, clearly outlined her expectations, and worked diligently on my behalf to achieve the appropriate results. She leads a great legal team that will keep you on track and ready for court (if necessary). My situation called for a tough, but compassionate lawyer-client relationship. An attorney should work on your behalf and best interest; Ms. Connolly will do just this. I would highly recommend her services and will use her for future needs. Angela C.

I am so glad I made the decision to fire my previous attorney and enlist the representation of Karen. I am confident in stating without her by my side, I would not have fully be capable of protecting my family and standing up for what was true and fair. I definitely recommend Ms. Connolly and would hire her again if the need ever arises.

I have used Karen Connolly for years. She is an excellent lawyer. She is forthright--with the good and the bad, which is what I wanted. You need to hear the strengths and weaknesses of your case before you go in. You do not always get what you want in divorce or custody court. She was realistic and spot on. Her staff are professional and courteous. Lawyers are not cheap, I knew that going in.

I am extremely satisfied with the results Mr. Figler was able to produce. He worked very hard and went above and beyond for me. It felt like he cared about myself and my case, and went the extra mile to get things done. Very easy to work with and explained things in a straight forward way, which was helpful for someone like me who doesn’t know much about the legal/court system. I am very glad I went to him because I don’t believe I would of had the same results or urgency with a public defender. I absolutely recommend him.

Mr. Figler represented me in a case in which I was faced with 2 counts of Domestic Battery. As most of the time the man will be charged. I was hoping for a gracious Plea since I was lied on by 2 family members. Mr. Figler was able to get the case thrown out. He is great and I recommend him.

I hired a lawyer Mike Aisen from this firm and boy did he make it such an easy experience! I am out of state and had some old charges from when I lived in NV. From our phone consultation Mike sounded confident in my case and made me feel at ease. Not once did I have to show up for court and he took care of everything. He e-mailed me updates and even called me directly with the outcomes of my court dates. He was able to dismiss my possession charges and even get them sealed! My other case he was able to negotiate down to just minimal fees to the court. He did all of this at a fantastic rate too. He set up an easy payment plan I could afford and was flexible with the payments. All I can say is it was a fantastic experience all around and I would hire him in a second if I ever had something else come up.

Adam is truly passionate about defending his clients; he loves what he does and is very good at it, he has a direct but calming energy a bout him. I had several heavy charges and was extremely shook up before meeting Adam. I was referred by a friend to Adam but had met three other lawyers before our meeting-I left all three of those other offices feeling super discouraged and that the process could take well over a year or two, costing me an enormous undo-able amount of money. Adam was beyond reassuring but honest and upfront about the potential ways he could work my case. Adam worked with me on how to go about everything the right way to get the best case scenario and in a timely manner (8 months). I was facing 15 charges that could of put me away for a very long time and after Adam refused to accept the first couple plea offers, he got my case dropped to 2 felonies with no jail time recommended (I am freee). Thank you SO much to Adam and his team!!

I would like to thank to Justin first for my case result!
I hired him as my attorney for an immigration issue. He was not only the most honest lawyer through out the whole process also, put a lot of efforts and time for my case. Justin is the lawyer paying attentions to little details for a case, such as he had me to prepare for pre-interview one on one which he didn't have to. My case took over an year and half and the whole time he always quick to response to my questions. Now that my case has been closed very successfully, I am very happy with my experience with Justin. You won't get to see a lawyer that cares about you a humane level like him. if you are looking for a lawyer who cares about you and your case rather than money, WORK WITH HIM. You won't be disappointed

I hired Justin to handle a traffic citation that I had received in Dec 2017. He explained to me very clearly the actions he would take to get my legal matter resolved. He followed thru on everyone of them and kept me informed. It was resolved just the way that he had explained it to me - so, I was very happy with the final outcome of my case. He even texted me when he saw that I had paid the court fines a couple of days later - another example of how Justin stays focused on what's important.

Mr. Leavitt was kind and skilled. He helped me through a very difficult situation and helped steer me down the right path. I wouldn't be where I am today without his professional help many years ago. He convinced the Judge that my immature behavior was an aberration and prevented 1 (or 2) stupid nights from ruining my entire life. I have him to thank for everything and I know that I wouldn't be a successful business owner without his help.

Robert cares about his client and will do his best to defend his client. He was able to obtain a release without posting bail under own recognizance. He was able to answer my questions when I seek advice. After many months of negotiation with the District Attorney he was able to negotiate a plea deal which reduced the felony to a gross misdemeanor. Thank you, Robert!

Kurth law office has handled 2 of my custody battles and has been by far the most outstanding attorney anyone could ever ask for. He has gone out of his way to make me as a client feel like I've mattered. He knows the law well and pushes for what is right. He doesn't take no for an answer and always went out of his way to make sure things were handled. Even when he's busy he always has time for his clients and manages his time well. My cases have been long and drawn out and very out of the ordinary but Robert always was on top of every aspect of the case and knew the case inside and out. It's nice to run into him and have him rememeber the kids names and ask how they are doing. He's an extraordinary man with great family values and it shows in his work. he has a wonderful staff always available on top of all the case paperwork and making sure everything was accounted for and filed on time. If your in the market for shopping for a new attorney and law firm you'll be more then satisfied with Kurth law and Robert Kurth!

Went above and beyond in every instance. Retained for a felony criminal case, that was dropped to a misdemeanor thanks to his efforts! Worked around the clock to file appropriate motions, including late night visits, while incarcerated, in order to discuss details of the case. Have also retained him for a personal injury, car accident claim for a fellow family member, and he made the process as quick and painless as possible. Took care of every detail to where all the injured had to do was show up for her treatment, and then was later compensated for it. Would recommend him, with no hesitation, for any situation!

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.
Top Questions to Ask a Criminal Defense Lawyer
Before hiring a criminal defense lawyer, you’ll want to ensure that they’re a good fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask:
-
What is your experience with cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has a strong track record with the specific type of criminal charges you’re facing, whether it’s DUI, drug offenses, or violent crimes. -
What is your fee structure?
Ask how the lawyer charges for their services and whether you’ll be responsible for any additional costs. -
What are the potential outcomes of my case?
A good lawyer should provide an honest assessment of your case and the likelihood of dismissal, a plea bargain, or conviction. -
How many cases have you taken to trial?
While many criminal cases settle with a plea deal, it’s important to hire a lawyer with courtroom experience in case your case goes to trial. -
Who will handle my case?
Ask if the lawyer will be personally involved or if other attorneys in the firm will handle most of the work. -
How do you communicate with your clients?
Be clear on how often and through what channels you can expect updates on your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Criminal Defense Lawyer
To verify the credibility of a criminal defense lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check their standing with the state bar: Confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any past disciplinary actions or complaints.
- Read online reviews and testimonials: Platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google can provide insights from previous clients about the lawyer’s communication, professionalism, and case outcomes.
- Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should have past clients or other professionals who can speak to their competence and work ethic.
- Review their case history: Look at the lawyer’s website or professional profile to see their experience with criminal cases, including high-profile or complex cases.
- Look for trial experience: If your case might go to trial, make sure the lawyer has a strong history of courtroom advocacy and success.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most of your first consultation with a criminal defense lawyer, bring the following:
- Details of your case: Be prepared to provide a detailed account of the charges against you, including any documents related to your arrest, police reports, and court dates.
- Criminal history: If you have any prior criminal convictions, inform your lawyer so they can understand how that may affect your current case.
- List of witnesses or evidence: If there are any potential witnesses or evidence that may support your defense, share this information during the consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare questions about their experience, legal strategy, and fees to ensure you understand how they will handle your case.
- Bail or release documents: If you’ve been released on bail, bring any paperwork related to your release conditions or restrictions.
By being well-prepared, you can help your lawyer quickly assess your situation and begin building an effective defense strategy.
