I can’t thank Marci Ball’s law firm enough for their incredible support after my car accident. From day one, they were professional, compassionate, and dedicated to my case. The team kept me informed every step of the way and fought tirelessly to ensure I received the best outcome possible. Their attention to detail and expertise made a stressful situation much more manageable. I couldn’t have asked for a better team to represent me. Highly recommend to anyone in need of top-notch legal assistance!

Regarding a matter that involves a family cabin that was taken into consideration during the process of estate planning, Morgan Legal Group did a wonderful job with the case to deal with the situation.
Furthermore, they consistently demonstrated a high level of sensitivity towards any queries or concerns that were brought up during the process. From the very beginning to the very finish of whatever was being done, this ensured that everything went off without a hitch and that everything occurred without any problems.

During the process of estate planning, Andrew did an excellent job of leading us through each phase of the process. He accomplished this by walking us through the process step by step. Not only was he extraordinarily comprehensive and well-organized, but he was also able to explain everything in a way that ensured it was easy to comprehend. He was a master of communication. I found this to be a very beneficial resource for those persons who had no prior experience working in the legal sector.

Robert is the best! He represented me in my divorce case. The first thing that he did was to explain the legal papers that I was served in layman's terms, as opposed to the legaleze it was written in. He handled everything, and kept me informed every single step of the way. The way that he simplified legal jargon, without talking down to me really left an impact on me. By the time the process had come to an end, Robert got me much more than I assumed I would walk away with. He never tried to run my pockets dry. In fact he didn't charge for some of the things that he did. I highly recommend Robert L. Bogen. If you are smart, you would stop shopping around, and call Robert now.

Mr. Bogen is a highly professional, knowledgeable, and caring advocate. I recommend him without qualification! He completed all necessary estate planning documents for my mother and for my wife and me. He also handled a very contentious divorce for a teacher colleague of mine. She was thrilled with the settlement Mr. Bogen was able to secure for her. He is an excellent attorney and a person who has earned my trust and appreciation.

If you find yourself needing an attorney, Steven Ganim, is the attorney to choose!
Steven represented me for a Real Estate case and he didn't just represent me he educated me, respected me, and ensured I was in trusted hands. Steven's communication and follow through is impeccable. His integrity, intelligence and commitment definitely shone through. Regardless of his case load (I would have no idea but I would have to assume it is large due to his ability) you will feel as if you are his only client and his #1 priority! I highly recommend Steven and Ganim Law Group.

Jordan Gerber is a complete angel on Earth. She was willing to take on my complex case, which had already been set for trial, when most attorneys wouldn’t touch it. My case was not only complex by legal standards, but I had also unfortunately been representing myself and had undoubtably made things worse (although Jordan was too gracious to tell me so.)
Nevertheless, Jordan jumped right in and was truly so compassionate and very knowledgeable about the outstanding issues in my case. Within weeks of taking me on as a client, she managed to make great strides in removing a major obstacle that was a thorn in my side for the many years of my legal battles.
She fought hard for me every step of the way, she was thorough and fierce in her representation, and she put a lot on the line because she believed in my rights to due process. That means a lot to someone when their chips are down. I felt empowered by having Jordan in my corner, she is an absolute Rockstar in my book.
If you are looking for a family law attorney that will take their time to learn about you, your family, and your case, and will fight like hell for you; look no further, hire Jordan immediately.

Sander proved to be an exceptional divorce attorney, offering not only legal expertise but also a calm and supportive presence throughout the process. From the initial consultation, he took the time to listen carefully, understanding the unique circumstances of the case and providing personalized advice. His thorough knowledge of family law was evident in the way he explained complex legal matters in a clear and understandable manner, making it easier to navigate difficult decisions.
Throughout the proceedings, Sander remained proactive and detail-oriented, ensuring that all necessary paperwork was completed accurately and on time. His strategic approach to negotiation was impressive, as he helped secure a fair settlement that reflected my best interests. What stood out was his ability to remain calm under pressure, even when emotions ran high, allowing me to feel reassured and confident in the outcome.
Beyond his legal expertise, Sander demonstrated genuine empathy and care. He understood the emotional toll of the divorce process and made sure to check in regularly, offering both legal guidance and emotional support. This combination of professionalism and compassion made a difficult time much more manageable, and I would highly recommend Sander to anyone in need of a skilled and caring divorce attorney.

I consulted and ultimately hired Julia Wyda and her firm to represent me for guidance on contemplating a divorce. I felt immediately at ease after the consultation as she described the best plan of action to protect myself legally and my rights. She was clear, direct, but empathetic. She is also extremely knowledgeable with all laws that pertained to my case in Florida. My divorce was complicated, emotional, and required the skillset of only the best professional lawyers and team to finalize the divorce with the best outcome possible. I can not express the gratitude I have for Julia and her team. She really listened to what I ultimately wanted, was always available, and took the time to honor those wishes. I would highly recommend Julia Wyda for any family law representation.

Divorce attorney Wendy Hausmann took over my case with a high level of professionalism and integrity. She explained all the legal aspects in detail and she was up front with me from the beginning about my chances, legal options, time expected, possible outcomes, and legal fees.

In addition, she was always well prepared and performed extremely well in the courtroom. I will retain her services in the future, if needed, and recommend her without reservation.”

Divorce is the hardest possible thing I've dealt with especially involving kids. I had taste buds taken off my mouth not wanting to eat due to this matter of divorce to crying that my now ex-wife would let me see my kids.
I left her so she had an avenue which is making my life hard through attorneys to get back. Long story story short I hired a cheap attorney versus not having one worst mistake ever... Hired Andrea she gets to the point divorced in record time. She doesn't play games and plays devils advocate as she knows the system. Best thing she advised to me is that she said to me with ease. "Your the same person going through a divorce with a different last name" She's a 10 Star. Me and my ex wife next to me. She turned a 14 month battle and converted in 90 days.

The Reid Law Group worked with me during the most difficult time of my life. The were compassionate from the start. The best part is their empathy is matched with their wisdom (which is invaluable during this process) and knowledge. I have worked with lawyers in my professional life but never have I had a entire team support and guide me the way Andrea and her team did. They were there every step of the way. If you want a strong advocate who will create a strategy that helps you achieve your individual goals... there is no one better. They understand that clients may have different desired outcomes and they work with you to help you meet these goals. Everything is explained thoroughly but ultimately they want what is best for your situation. I truly feel blessed that a friend (a-highly respected family law attorney) recommended her to me. Thank you for leading me to the best outcome for me in a remarkably trying situation. Forever thankful!

- 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.

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.

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.
