Alicia's website says that she will help you with domestic abuse. This is not true. She represented my ex with whom I have had 3 restraining orders with in 8 years. She is completely aware of how abusive he is but took his case and I was not granted one for a 4th time. She has no moral compass anddefends the guilty and abuser without shame. As a woman I am not sure how she sleeps at night knowing how vulnerable I am. She has no class, integrity or honor or respect for woman. For a woman attorney to defend a man who you know has been physically violent and has 3 restraining orders in the past you really have no empathy or care for anything other that your wallet. She should be ashamed of herself.

Highly recommended. Alicia and her team are competent, patient, and accountable. I was confronted by a high conflict case, which she took head-on. I was confident from the beginning that I was in good hands, and she never let me down. We settled in record time and I am forever grateful. Thank you, Chalumeau Law Group!

Whatever your legal predicament; traffic tickets, DWI, narcotics smuggling, illegal arms trafficking or if you need something simple like a will or pre- or postnuptial agreement, if you’re lucky enough to have Mr Jeffrey Hersh take your case you will watch your legal troubles melt away faster than the Wicked Witch of the West. Better call Saul? No. Better call Jeff.

Attorney Kim Duell is an outstanding person. Kim is compassionate and caring. Kim made a difficult experience for me easier to deal with. Kim always made her self available to me with any questions i had even if they were - well - stupid. Kim worked with me on payment arrangements. I am forever grateful for her guidance and knowledge.

Attorney Kim Duell handled my divorce using the collaborative process. I find Kim to be insightful, compassionate, knowledgeable, and very representative of the collaborative process. I’d like to emphasize that I find her to be a caring human being. When I was feeling very stressed, Kim’s was a calm and empathetic voice of reason.

In my family court experiences with Attorney Duell, I have found her to be a no-nonsense, practical advocate that provides a real perspective of a case and professionally assess the situation at hand in order to best determine a course of action. Kim and her staff are extremely responsive, detailed and, thankfully, do not "over-lawyer" a case as some practitioner tend to do. Kim supplies useful advice and is steadfast in her commitment to her clients. I fully endorse her !

I had an outstanding experience working with Jim Miron, his assistant Gillian, and the rest of his team at the Maddox Law Firm on my car accident case. From the very beginning, Jim demonstrated professionalism, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to my case. He took the time to thoroughly understand my situation and made sure I felt supported every step of the way.
One of the things I appreciated most about Jim was his kindness and understanding. Since English is my second language, I was initially worried about being able to communicate effectively. However, he quickly put my fears to rest by offering warm words of encouragement and taking the time to explain everything in a way I could easily understand. He was always patient and ensured that I was comfortable with every decision and detail in the process.
His knowledge and expertise in handling car accident cases were evident in the way he guided me through the complexities of the legal system. He and his team, of which Gillian was my case manager, kept me informed at every stage, answered all my questions promptly, and made me feel like a priority. Thanks to his and his team’s hard work and dedication, my case was successfully settled, and I am extremely satisfied with the outcome.
Jim Miron is not only an exceptional attorney but also a genuinely caring individual who goes above and beyond for his clients. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal assistance. Whether you’re facing language barriers or simply looking for someone you can trust, Jim Miron and his team at the Maddox Law Firm is what you want on your side.

There are not enough great things I can say about Karen. My young son had a pretty serious issue and she worked hard on his behalf and accomplished everything she set out to do when we retained her as our attorney. Without her my son could of faced big consequences. Her knowledge of the court system was amazing. I would highly recommend Karen to anyone.

It's my pleasure to submit a positive review for attorney Dan Murphy.
Dan brings integrity to his profession, something I suspect he demonstrates in his personal life as well. During my 13 month divorce, he continually coached me on the value of restraint, always concerned with how any action might be perceived should we head to trial. His patience, coupled with his relentless attention to detail, resulted in a positive outcome when my divorce turned from amicable to litigious.
Dan successfully reduced my now ex-wife's settlement demand by 85%. Her lawyer tried an aggressive approach that Dan's experience and coolheadedness was able to navigate and resolve using the facts of our case.
While I am grateful to settling only weeks before our trial, part of me wishes I could have seen Dan litigate -- his tenacity and willingness to fight on my behalf was a preview I got to glimpse during deposition.
Thank you, Dan.

We never thought that one day we would need to look for a Family Law Attorney for help, but life at times brings us unexpected sudden events!
We were extremely rewarded when we were referred to The Law Offices of Rashmi N. Patel.
We still remember details of our first conversation, occurred on the same day in which she was asked to call us back, but the major one is that we noticed that above all we were speaking with a True Human Being, instead of just an Attorney!In anything that one does in life, it does not matter at what level, sense of Humanity needs to be present, a cordial smile should be seen even over the phone, and the W.I.T. will to help needs to be firm and honest.We were indeed quite impressed with that phone call and we knew at that moment that we could place our entire Trust on Rashmi N. Patel as we did feel that she would get the job done!Well, let me tell you! We were right! She immediately became familiar with our case, asked important questions and moved forward with the process.During its course, which was not very long at all, she proved herself to be a very clever and experienced Family Law Attorney, firm on her words, truthful on her commitment, and kind on her guidance.When in Court at the first required appearance, on a very crucial part of the litigation, she proved again to be a Winner! Not a Winner on that moment, but a Winner of all!What Rashmi did that day, how she professionally performed, and how she guided us showed once again that we were dealing with a Fighter, not for her Rights, but to defend ours, which became as important to her than they were at the time to ourselves! We did not measured words to express our sincere appreciation for all that she wanted to do, did, and we knew she would do!Every time we needed her; she was there. Every time we e-mailed her, she got right back. Every time we texted her, she texted back. Every time we called, she called back!All of the many conference calls we had were done timely and to the point! She did not extend it to be long. She led the conversation to decisively address that important points and got it done efficiently.Rashmi immediate responses showed us how we were important to her and assured us on how rewarded we were in counting with her skilled Legal Services. We knew that when she said we would celebrate Victory that she meant it and she knew within her heart that no unfairness should remain unpunished so that people should somehow be penalized for their unjustified and evil actions!It did not take long, besides many days passing by, for the final honestly Victory come to fruition!We still remember Rashmi N. Patel very strong words when of the very first call: “We will help you!”
We for sure do encourage you, if in need of a Family Law or Immigration truly competent Attorney, to call the Law Offices of Rashmi N. Patel. You will not talk with an assistant that will transfer to another Paralegal, and so forth and so forth! You will speak with Rashmi on the first shot and every time you need to!There is a huge difference between people who chose certain Professions because of the “money” involved and people who do what they love to do with the intensity of their soul and passion within their heart!Rashmi is one of them!
Rewarding True Success comes not to those who enrich themselves from serving others but from the conviction that we as Humans are on this Earth to Make A Difference to others! Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (Mahatma Gandhi) - 1869/1948 - was also an Indian Lawyer, and on one of his most famous Quotes, “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others”, Gandhi pretty much reinforced our personal view of Rashmi N. Patel, also an Indian Attorney.
“By serving others from the heart and soul, the difference that you make to yourself and others is without any doubt quite priceless! Thank you so much, Rashmi! Awesome Legal Performance!

Before writing this review, my family and I are forever grateful and indebted to Rashmi for representing our case & helping us to keep our family together.
When we first approached her, we were scared, confused, and clueless about how the case is going to unfold. She listened to the entire case very patiently and offered necessary guidance. She was honest about the chances we had to win. During the whole process, she was very thoughtful, dedicated, and promptly responded to our questions. At times, we lost our hope, but she persistently tried everything to win this case. I am thankful to her and her entire team to help me keep our family together.
I highly recommend her expertise and professionalism if you are looking for an Immigration Attorney for any complicated immigration-related issues.

My citizenship case involved multitude of items that had to obtained from various sources (agencies). Some of it was obsolete, some of it was archived, none of it readily available. Once gotten, it then needed to be cross referenced and checked for accuracy. From the distance it looked like a long and winding road.
Ms. Patel handled the case with aplomb and alacrity: my case was completed sooner than expected.
This attorney is highly effective, very efficient and utmost professional. Thoroughly recommended.

Attorney Perimenis is an amazing person and one damn good attorney. She helped me in my time of need during a domestic violence case and a child custody case where my son and I were the victims. When I thought all was lost she came and protected and defended my son and I like a guardian angel. She has gone above and beyond for my son and I and she continues to do so. I am forever grateful that I met her and I trust her completely. I cant write enough here to explain to you how satisfied I am with Georgette but if your looking for top notch legal representation, Georgette and her team are the very best hands down!!

I had an insane case! Multiple emergency custody and restraining order motions, from myself and my ex during our divorce. It was an extremely contentious situation. After I hired Attorney Maren Klawiter, everything fell into place!
Not only did she help me defeat all motions against me, she helped me win everything I wanted in this divorce. And we didn’t have to lie or do anything that made me feel like I compromised my morals or integrity. Maren is not only a great lawyer, but a great person too.
Hire Attorney Klawiter, you won’t regret it!

I have used Paul Greenan for estate planning and trust management for 20 years. He is easy to talk to, very insightful, responsive, caring and above all honest. He has been a great asset to me and my family and I appreciate all the hard work he has done for us over the years. I know he does not charge for all the time he puts into matters he handles; That alone sets him apart from other attorneys who have a stopwatch in hand.

He managed to turn what was the most horrible time of my life, into a positive life experience. He is straightforward and honest. Everything I thought attorneys weren’t. You can’t go wrong in hiring this man. I would definitely return for any other future needs due to the accommodations and services rendered in my experience working with Attorney Sargis.

Sharon was the first attorney I have ever retained and I'm pleased to say that my experience was fantastic! I was looking for a prenup and the matter was time sensitive. Sharon struck the perfect balance between advocating for me and understanding what I was looking to achieve out of the document. She made me feel at ease when discussing my personal situation and life circumstances. She made sure I understood what I was agreeing to and was flexible during the process. Fee structure was more than reasonable. I am so glad I chose Sharon and give her my highest recommendation.

I met with Sharon for a consultation on a Child Support case. I had been preparing for a few weeks and had documents ready to turn over for a professional to take it and run with in court. Sharon met with me for an hour though I scheduled for 30 minutes. Reviewed my docs and provided invaluable guidance…then sent me on my way to represent myself. While it was the last vote of confidence I needed, it was also a display of nobility: at times like this we are willing to do and pay anything for our children but Sharon didn’t even think about a check and I’m sure her hour of time is worth a lot. I had what I needed and the priceless tweaks and advice Sharon gave helped me get everything I wanted and then some AS the defendant! This is the only review I’ve ever done AND I’ve included my name because I want all to know of the authenticity of this attorney; World-class! If you are in need of representation, I definitely recommend her…can only imagine what she can do in court herself if her guidance accomplishes so much.

Mrs.Moore is a straight beast. She went hard for me in the court room on a child custody case. I was looking at TPR and now I have a chance to bring my daughter home. She is very knowledgeable of the law, professional and understanding. She gains insight and applies it in the court room to her clients advantage. She keeps great communication and she fights for you and she fights hard. She is by far the best lawyer I’ve ever used. She doesn’t judge you and she gives you advice to help you. She comes into court very presentable and shuts every other lawyer down with her tactics. She is an absolute savage in the courtroom and knows her stuff!!

Attorney Moore is the best Attorney I have ever had. She is so professional and she really gets to know about the client. She is so knowledgeable, our first case went from me owing money, to getting paid by the party that wanted to sue me.
She is without a doubt, the most principled Attorney I have ever dealt with.

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.
