Brad Cranmer provided outstanding representation throughout my divorce proceedings. From our initial consultation to the final resolution, he demonstrated a level of professionalism and expertise that exceeded my expectations. His attention to detail ensured that every aspect of my case was thoroughly addressed, and his guidance was instrumental in achieving a favorable outcome. What truly set him apart, however, was his unwavering commitment to my well-being beyond the legal aspects of the case. His empathetic approach and willingness to listen to my concerns made me feel heard and supported every step of the way. The genuine care for his clients is a testament to his integrity and dedication to his profession. I wholeheartedly recommend Brad to anyone in need of legal representation, knowing that they will be in the most capable hands.

Brad helped me collect property payments from a family court ruling in a neighboring state. Brad is highly knowledgeable about collections and proactive in dealing with uncooperative employers and slippery exes. I live on the other end of the country, but it felt like Brad and his team were in the same city. Communication was frequent and thorough. I am so lucky to have found Brad, a trustworthy professional willing to take my case. Brad gave me closure on a lengthy and frustrating family court issue!

About a year ago I was in a car wreck, my very first, and I was not at fault. Unfortunately, though the situation turned on me after my lawyer at Morris Bart turned down my case during my treatment for body injuries. I was told that I did not have insurance, which left me on my own with injuries that continued to have me in pain.
That was until my friend told me about a friendly and passionate friend she's known a long time; Danny Russell. He was a godsend and he really and truly felt for my situation. It's not only that he's sympathetic, but also empathic to understand what it is like to be in a situation like myself. He's inspired to really fight for you, and really look into policies that you could not understand. When he says he can do something, you better believe it. Because while I lost hope, Danny found it.
Thank you so much. Both you and your wife and staff are extremely thoughtful. Thank you for the birthday/holiday cards, and for the gift basket. That was a sweet touch to the entire experience. I feel like family. I promise not to be a stranger, we are way past that. :)

It was a positive experience working with the Danny Russell Law Firm on my case. They were there to help me every step of the way. After my car accident, I didn’t even know where to begin. Dealing with insurance companies can be nerve wracking, and an injury on top of it was overwhelming. Danny was in constant communication with me. His attention to the case allowed me to recover and get back to work quicker. I would absolutely recommend Danny Russell to handle your personal injury case.

I hired Andy to assist me as local counsel on a case I had near Monroe, Louisiana. We knew from the beginning that the case would be extremely difficult and complex. Most lawyers would have backed away from the case for this reason. But, Andy did not hesitate to take on the challenge and Andy took on four corporate defendants without fear. With Andy's help, we were able to achieve a rather remarkable settlement for our case. He is loyal beyond belief and never backs down from a "bully".

”A couple of months ago I got myself in a bind by making a poor decision under pressure, and I was facing some potentially serious trouble. I found DeJean Law online, and I knew I’d made the right decision to work with them from my very first conversation with Andy and his team. I am a good person who simply made an honest mistake, and they treated me with dignity and respect during an extremely vulnerable time in my life. Andy took the time to get to know me as a person and used that knowledge as fuel when deciding how to defend my case. He made sure that I was fully aware of the worst case scenario, and then we worked together to create a list of desired goals for my court date and how we were going to approach achieving them. Andy prepared me for what to expect in court, and when that day came, we knocked our goals list out of the park… I was dropped to a lesser offense, charged a tiny fraction of what I had planned on in court fees/fines and, most importantly, wasn’t sentenced any jail time, suspension or even probation! I would recommend Andy and DeJean Law to anyone that I know. They will fight to ensure you are represented fairly and that your case has a favorable outcome.”

Divorce is one of the most trying things a woman can go through, you feel alone, taken advantage of, hurt, angry, and just simply not able to trust ANYONE.

Mr Murrell assisted us with a name change for my grandchild, who has been estranged from her father for many years. The father was very reluctant to allow her name to be changed from his last name, but Mr Murrell ultimately gained his permission.
Mr Murrell handled this very emotional situation quickly and professionally. We will use him again soon for estate planning, and we highly recommend him to relatives and friends.

Was extremely worried and scared the entire time. I have two young children and really needed some help because my ex-husband hired a lawyer, left me with the kids and all these bills and I didnt know what to do. It felt really good when we left court and everything he told me was going to happen, happened. I would definitely recommend him if you are in need of a family lawyer. He was a pleasure to work with, and didnt make me feel uncomfortable like those other lawyers when i had to share intimate details about my family situation.

I completely agree about Atty Marcantel being one of the highest rated and most intelligent and hardest working attorney's in the Southeast region of La...it's been some years since I've used his services but when I called upon him to represent me in my early 20s, he was probably the best candidate I could have chosen for my legal aid...whatever he goes on to do in his career, I feel Carson would be the ideal selection for anything he's involved in...good luck sir, and best wishes to u and you're family!!!

Crystal Matthews was very knowledgeable and professional. She is very kind and gentle at heart, but transforms into a fighter in the courtroom!! During my appearance in court, I was very nervous, as I never went to court before. I was being manipulated while in court, by my then spouse, that was in Law Enforcement, so I didn’t accept her advice as I should’ve. Years later, I found everything she said was true! Let her fight for you, her advice is golden !!! She knows exactly what she’s talking about and is great at what she does!!!

We used the Rozas firm to help a friend who is a recent immigrant. The issues were complicated as we had criminal issues with immigration implications. They quickly came up with a strategy that was coordinated between the two sides of the matter. Their communication was outstanding and they were able to get the criminal matter dropped and get their client on the right path for immigration status. Bravo and thanks to Rachel and Lacie.

What a Family Law Lawyer Can Do for You
A family law lawyer provides legal services related to family relationships, including marriage, divorce, child custody, and adoption. Family lawyers help clients navigate emotionally charged legal issues, providing guidance and representation in disputes that affect spouses, children, and parents. Whether you're going through a divorce, seeking custody of your children, or drafting a prenuptial agreement, a family law lawyer ensures your rights are protected and your interests are represented.
Family law attorneys often handle sensitive matters and offer objective legal advice, helping clients reach fair outcomes either through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
When Should I Hire a Family Law Lawyer?
Hiring a family law lawyer is beneficial in several situations, especially when legal matters involve close personal relationships. Common reasons to hire a family law lawyer include:
- Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.
- Child custody and visitation disputes: If you and your co-parent can't agree on custody or visitation, a lawyer can represent your interests and work toward a solution that benefits your children.
- Child support: Whether you’re seeking child support or defending against a claim, a lawyer can help ensure the appropriate amount is calculated and enforced.
- Prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: A lawyer can help draft or review agreements that protect your assets in case of divorce.
- Adoption: Family law lawyers guide you through the legal process of adoption, ensuring that all requirements are met.
- Domestic violence or restraining orders: If you're a victim of domestic violence or being falsely accused, a lawyer can help you obtain or challenge protective orders.
- Paternity cases: If there are questions about the paternity of a child, a lawyer can help establish or dispute legal fatherhood.
Hiring a lawyer early can prevent issues from escalating, and they can offer you the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome in emotionally charged situations.
What Does a Family Law Lawyer Do?
A family law lawyer provides a wide range of services depending on your specific legal needs. Their responsibilities may include:
- Advising on legal rights and options: Helping you understand your legal rights regarding divorce, child custody, support, and other family law issues.
- Filing legal documents: Drafting and filing petitions, motions, and agreements with the court, such as divorce papers, custody agreements, or support orders.
- Representing clients in court: Arguing your case in front of a judge if a settlement can’t be reached through negotiation or mediation.
- Mediation and negotiation: Assisting with alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation, to reach agreements on issues like custody, property division, and support without going to trial.
- Enforcing court orders: Helping you enforce court orders related to child support, alimony, or custody if the other party fails to comply.
- Drafting prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: Creating agreements that protect your assets in the event of a divorce.
- Handling adoption proceedings: Ensuring that the legal process of adoption is followed, from filing paperwork to finalizing the adoption in court.
How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?
Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:
- Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
- Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
- Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.
The exact cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure, which should be discussed upfront.
How Much Does a Family Law Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a family law lawyer varies based on factors such as the lawyer's experience, the location, and the complexity of your case. Here are some general cost guidelines:
- Hourly rates: Family law lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
- Flat fees: For simpler cases, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.
- Retainers: For more complex matters, such as contested divorces or custody battles, lawyers may charge a retainer ranging from $2,500 to $10,000 or more. The lawyer will bill against the retainer for the work they do on your case.
- Additional costs: You may also be responsible for additional costs, such as filing fees, mediation fees, or expert witness fees.
Always ask for a clear breakdown of the lawyer’s fees and any additional expenses during your consultation.
Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer
Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:
-
What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption. -
How will you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved. -
What are the possible outcomes of my case?
An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case. -
What is your approach to resolving disputes?
Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals. -
How long do you expect my case to take?
While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases. -
Who will be handling my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work, so make sure you understand who will be your main point of contact.
How to Check the Credibility of a Family Law Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable family law lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:
- Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and is in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on websites like Avvo, Google, or Martindale-Hubbell. Previous clients can give you insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and success in family law cases.
- Request references: Ask the lawyer for references from past clients who can speak to their experience with the lawyer.
- Review their website or professional profile: Look at the lawyer’s background, case history, and areas of focus to ensure they have substantial experience in family law.
- Look for professional memberships: Membership in reputable organizations, such as the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), can indicate a lawyer's expertise and dedication to family law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a family law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:
- Relevant documents: Bring any documents related to your case, such as marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, financial records, custody agreements, or court orders.
- List of assets and debts: For divorce cases, prepare a detailed list of all assets (e.g., homes, bank accounts, retirement funds) and debts (e.g., mortgages, loans, credit card balances).
- Details of the family issue: Provide a written summary of the situation, including key dates and facts related to your divorce, custody dispute, or support issue.
- Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes.
- Your goals: Be prepared to discuss your objectives, such as custody arrangements, property division, or spousal support, so the lawyer understands your priorities.
Being organized and clear about your situation will help the lawyer evaluate your case more effectively and offer the best advice for moving forward.
