After never having any sort of criminal record in the past, I was represented by Nicholas Wallace. He was extremely helpful, always available, and ready & willing to answer any questions I had about this completely foreign subject. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for solid legal representation.

I found this attorney through Avvo. He said he could not help both my everyone needing an attorney. So I am looking for a new attorney but my family member is going to see this attorney. I was surprised after reading the reviews he was charging a 100$ consultation fee & can't see them for five days. I pray he is a fantastic attorney. With the reviews saying their consultation was free ... I felt it necessary to let any one looking that that has changed.

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.

Whoever answers the phone calls to set up consultations are rude as hell. Also, false advertisement on website for adult guardianship.

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.

In a civilized world people try to solve their problems by sitting down and trying to find a resolution. However, unfortunately not all problems can be solved. When this occurs we hire attorneys who are unbiased and knowledgeable to solve our problems. Susan has the knowledge, compassion and tenacity to get the job done. She has encouraged us when we could not see the light at the end of the tunnel. Hopefully we will not need her services again , however; if needed again she would be my first call. Thank you for allowing our granddaughter the chance to become whatever she chooses. Susan you have the strength and courage of a lion and a heart of gold. Thank you from the bottom of my heart

l hired this lawyer to deal with a felony charge I received. He got it dropped to a misdemeanor, and no jail time. He’s very talented and responds timely. He showed up at every court date I had before I even was there! Very very great lawyer. I highly HIGHLY reccomend hiring this attorney. If you are teeter tottering in hiring him, go into his office and have a chat with him. You’ll be convinced as soon as you hear this mans knowledge.

Attorney Phillips has been representing me on a family law case for the past year. Attorney Phillips is highly respected by his peers and the Courts in Northwest Indiana. He came recommended to me by multiple other counsel when I was looking for another family law attorney to take over the case, and I am very pleased that I engaged Attorney Phillips. He has honestly accomplished more in one year as the attorney in my family law case than what three different local attorneys had collectively accomplished over a 4-year time frame. The issues that have arisen from my family law case have been abundant, and it by no means has been your average divorce and/or custody dispute. However, that hasn’t stopped Mr. Phillips from relentlessly litigating the matter on its merits and representing my interests in Court. Throughout my family law case Attorney Phillips has successfully argued evidentiary matters, contempt matters, jurisdictional matters, an injunction matter, and custody matters. He has briefed issues of fact and law through various motions and memorandums of law, he has successfully argued multiple motions in oral arguments made to the Court, and he is a skilled at cross examination.
Attorney Phillips has always been responsive to my inquiries. He has on numerous occasions set aside time for me to come into his office for us to go over matters and issues pending in my case so that I know what’s going on, and if there are ever any issues that come up he has always reached out to me to discuss them. Attorney Phillips is extremely compassionate and understanding, and he genuinely cares about his clients. My only wish is that I would have hired Attorney Phillips earlier in my case. If I had, I am certain that it never would have become the mess it had become. But, as the old saying goes…it’s better late than never. If you are looking for a family law or personal injury attorney, you should sit down and have a conversation with Attorney Phillips. You’ll be glad you did!

I went to this law firm and asked if they had a criminal attorney. I found myself at 56 years old needing a criminal attorney because of a lie from an ex-girlfriend.
I went in the receptionist said yes we have a criminal attorney that works for us. His name is Randy Fisher.
Met me on a Sunday charge me $5000 flat rate I paid him in cash. I was short $460. They let me know within three days that I owe them more money. It wasn’t quite 5000 in cash. I immediately went in and paid it.
Eight weeks later I was arrested while he was my lawyer and he told me I had nothing to worry about. I hadn’t seen my ex in 12 weeks.
Randy Fisher told me I did not need to be at my first pre-trial that he would handle it. He then called me right after court started and said you need to be here. I was wrong. The Jud said you have to be here so I raced to the courthouse.
By the time I got there, it was all over and talk to me outside the courts
The next five pre-trials Randy postponed
Because he had other clients that he had to deal with, he told me he was out of state during free trial
On the fifth one, they denied the continuance on the fifth trial that he tried to postpone while he was in Disneyland with his Family
He called me on the phone and told me I had a warrant for my arrest and it was his fault and he would take care of it not to go home until he called
Then put me up in a hotel, which he paid for
While in the hotel, he was on the phone with me pissed off that the courts denied his request after five other pre-trial extensions Because of him not me, I wanted this over with
I am immediately
Went and hired another attorney and had to spend $10,000
I told Mr. Randy Fisher that I hired another attorney. He got pissed off at me and charged me 5000 more dollars for him to stay on his attorney and he had to be lead attorney.
Seems like he was more worried about being Tony then being my attorney and doing his job instead of postponing everything that came my way while he handled his NFL clients
I went to his office at least five times complaining, but I didn’t think he was being a good attorney for me
They told me that he doesn’t actually work for their company, but that is not what they told me when I went in. They had a criminal attorney. On Staff
I went in and complained to the receptionist many times she said Randy kind of flies by the seat of his pants, but he’s got you
Randy Fisher damn they got me killed in my front yard when the police came to arrest me after he said he had everything taken care of with the DA his words exactly
I would never recommend this. They don’t what they say. They double their charges in the middle Of the case after giving you a flat rate.
Then they his office did nothing but make excuses for Randy Fisher
I’m putting this out there so nobody else gets screwed over by this company
What cinnamon over within a year has now dragged to three years because for one year and 9 1/2 months all he did was continue continue continue telling me time was on my side
Randy Fisher‘s words exactly
Then he told me because they held me at gunpoint at my front yard. I would become a millionaire by suing the police How inaccurate he was again
Also, I go to Michigan, Michigan, Michigan a lot I have a boat he told me not to ask for permission just to go and don’t get in any trouble. My second attorney I hired told me don’t ever leave the state again without the courts permission. He then asked the court if I could go to Michigan, my second attorney did and they said absolutely not. Mr. Johnson is not to be out of this state Randy told me I did not have to ask the courts permission. It’s easier to ask forgiveness than ask permission his words exactly. He. Let me go seven times to Michigan when that could’ve been a prison sentence itself.
I highly don’t recommend this company
They did nothing to help me. My second attorney had everything taken care of within 30 days of hiring him Randy two years nothing but continuances until they finally started denying his continuance because he asked for so many so he could handle his nfl Clie

I went to this law firm and asked if they had a criminal attorney. I found myself at 56 years old needing a criminal attorney because of a lie from an ex-girlfriend.
I went in the receptionist said yes we have a criminal attorney that works for us. His name is Randy Fisher.
Met me on a Sunday charge me $5000 flat rate I paid him in cash. I was short $460. They let me know within three days that I owe them more money. It wasn’t quite 5000 in cash. I immediately went in and paid it.
Eight weeks later I was arrested while he was my lawyer and he told me I had nothing to worry about. I hadn’t seen my ex in 12 weeks.
Randy Fisher told me I did not need to be at my first pre-trial that he would handle it. He then called me right after court started and said you need to be here. I was wrong. The Jud said you have to be here so I raced to the courthouse.
By the time I got there, it was all over and talk to me outside the courts
The next five pre-trials Randy postponed
Because he had other clients that he had to deal with, he told me he was out of state during free trial
On the fifth one, they denied the continuance on the fifth trial that he tried to postpone while he was in Disneyland with his Family
He called me on the phone and told me I had a warrant for my arrest and it was his fault and he would take care of it not to go home until he called
Then put me up in a hotel, which he paid for
While in the hotel, he was on the phone with me pissed off that the courts denied his request after five other pre-trial extensions Because of him not me, I wanted this over with
I am immediately
Went and hired another attorney and had to spend $10,000
I told Mr. Randy Fisher that I hired another attorney. He got pissed off at me and charged me 5000 more dollars for him to stay on his attorney and he had to be lead attorney.
Seems like he was more worried about being Tony then being my attorney and doing his job instead of postponing everything that came my way while he handled his NFL clients
I went to his office at least five times complaining, but I didn’t think he was being a good attorney for me
They told me that he doesn’t actually work for their company, but that is not what they told me when I went in. They had a criminal attorney. On Staff
I went in and complained to the receptionist many times she said Randy kind of flies by the seat of his pants, but he’s got you
Randy Fisher damn they got me killed in my front yard when the police came to arrest me after he said he had everything taken care of with the DA his words exactly
I would never recommend this. They don’t what they say. They double their charges in the middle Of the case after giving you a flat rate.
Then they his office did nothing but make excuses for Randy Fisher
I’m putting this out there so nobody else gets screwed over by this company
What cinnamon over within a year has now dragged to three years because for one year and 9 1/2 months all he did was continue continue continue telling me time was on my side
Randy Fisher‘s words exactly
Then he told me because they held me at gunpoint at my front yard. I would become a millionaire by suing the police How inaccurate he was again
Also, I go to Michigan, Michigan, Michigan a lot I have a boat he told me not to ask for permission just to go and don’t get in any trouble. My second attorney I hired told me don’t ever leave the state again without the courts permission. He then asked the court if I could go to Michigan, my second attorney did and they said absolutely not. Mr. Johnson is not to be out of this state Randy told me I did not have to ask the courts permission. It’s easier to ask forgiveness than ask permission his words exactly. He. Let me go seven times to Michigan when that could’ve been a prison sentence itself.
I highly don’t recommend this company
They did nothing to help me. My second attorney had everything taken care of within 30 days of hiring him Randy two years nothing but continuances until they finally started denying his continuance because he asked for so many so he could handle his nfl Clie

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.
