Gabrielle Jones is a compassionate, professional attorney that works hard for her clients. I am fortunate to have been referred to her, and I don't think anyone could have handled my divorce, custody, and support issues as seamlessly as she did. She took SO much weight off my shoulders. I HIGHLY recommend her!

I looked over their details online and picked up the phone. I'm very thankful to have these lawyers on my side. Their experience and knowledge of real estate law is impressive. I was walked through every step of the process and given clearly defined options to choose from. I never had to figure out what was going on or happening with my case. Not feeling defenseless or confused was reassuring. If I need legal counsel or advice in the future, real estate attorney Juliet Sussman is the attorney I want to represent me.

Rarely do you find a team of real estate attorneys with such a solid record of favorable outcomes for clients. The Las Vegas Real Estate Attorneys helped me with a joint tenancy deed and the affidavit of the passing of my father. My sister and I avoided liability for a large tax fee when we sold our grandparents' property. We were guided through the process and settled the case. They saved me a substantial amount of money. Thank you! Thank you!

When I was ending my 29 year marriage, I tried unsuccessfully to find a law firm to assist me with filing for divorce. The Hill Law Group was the only law firm that returned my phone call and set up a consultation quickly. From the first time I walked into their office, I was treated with courtesy and kindness and professionalism. Mr. Hill and Faith were through and helped me along the way. Mr. Hill helped me achieve a fair settlement and finalized my divorce. I highly recommend The Hill Law Group.

The Hill Law Group were truly amazing in helping me with both my Child Custody Case, and Personal Injury Case. Robert and Faith answered any questions I had in a timely, caring and professional manner. Robert went above and beyond to ensure I had all of the help I needed for myself and my son. His experience and expertise is second to none. His ‘no nonsense’ manner in the courtroom left me feeling calm knowing he has everything under control. The information he gave me was always straight to the point and never misleading, I was always given realistic expectations and felt prepared going into every portion of my case. Robert always fought for us and ensured I was getting everything we were entitled to. He made sure we were protected not only in the moment, but also for any future situations that may arise. I never felt intimidated by the other party with Robert by my side. Faith is an absolute asset to the team. Her knowledge and experience is beyond comparison and I truly leaned on her through every season of my case. Her caring nature combined with a dose of tough love when I needed it has grown me into a stronger woman. I was a timid, shy, scared girl walking into their office for our first meeting, and I emerged a confident woman who knew her rights and was ready to take on the battle ahead. I can’t recommend or thank them both, and Yvette who is also amazing, enough. As for my Personal Injury Case, they secured me a sizable payment for my injury and also made sure they covered all avenues possible to ensure I was getting everything I was entitled to. With Robert and Faith by my side I felt comforted, calm and informed as I went through this difficult season of life. 100/10 service.

His open door policy is great as he is always there when we needed him. He’s just a smart and caring person that we super appreciated going into our case. I’ve put him on speed dial should I ever need him which I hope I don’t. Use this guy for your needs as you won’t be sorry. We definitely will recommend to friends and family.

I called a well known attorney after seeing his commercials for years back in 2011. I knew I had a case I just needed someone to listen to me and hear my story. That attorney was only interested in taking cases that were a guaranteed win, and as many as possible. He referred me to Phil. I had never heard of Phil or his firm so I was skeptical but had no other option. I left Phil a message and he responded via text to set up a time to talk. Finally someone was willing to hear my story. I was expecting a girl from his office to call in the way that the previous firm had done. Phil called me directly and did not rush me at all. I was a little put off because his personality was different than the charismatic attorneys I had seen on tv, but no one else had given me more than 5 minutes and here he was asking questions and showing empathy and interest for an hour. He believed me. Also he was my only option. He took my case. What I saw over the year that Phil represented me was a man who was not afraid of or intimidated by anyone. He believed me. He fought for me. It didn’t matter who opposing counsel was or how big the case was going to get. He fought for me and we won. I was awarded a large settlement after three other attorneys told me I had no case. Phil isn’t going to win best personality or be on a commercial or the cover of those magazines that attorneys pay to be featured in…but I have never seen someone so passionate, determined and unafraid. I hope I have no need, but if I do need an attorney again, I wouldn’t consider anyone BUT Phil.

Philip Trenchak and his Office Staff have helped me immensely with my Separation Agreement from my previous employer. I was new to the area and had no one to speak to when middle management decided to make personnel changes while the CEO was on sabbatical. Basically, my workload was increased and the respect given to me and my support staff decreased. I tried to defend myself by speaking to Corporate directly and give my A/P staff a raise but I was repeatedly ignored. They would not speak to me directly and told me to hire a lawyer. I used AVVO to find Philip's Stellar Law Office. They were very attentive, gave me specific options with fees on how to move forward, and were very patient with me and diligent with my case. Since my employer would not speak to me, Philip and Cristina were in constant communications with them and kept me updated with any new developments. After 3 months, Philip's office secured my Severance Payment and I can now move on to working for a more ethical not-for-profit company. I highly recommend Philip Trenchak to fight for your employment rights!

My daughter and I hired Mr Compan before our consultation was even over. With the fear of loosing my grandchildren, her children. We went into Mr Compans office like two little kittens with our tails between our legs, swollen watery eyes from crying for weeks but let me assure you that when we walk out of there we both for the first time in weeks had smiles on our faces. He blew us away with his knowledge. Making no promises but paiting a accurate picture of what was to come. He was amazing through the entire process and we won !! He is a absolute godsend. If I ever need someone to legally back me in my fight he will be the first person I call. I could not give a higher recommendation.

We got exactly what we wanted in court and he explained everything to me from the start of how we should go about everything to get the end results that we got. He truly helped me and my children in a way I can never thank him enough for! I will Hire him for any and all court matters from now on. I can’t say it enough, he is amazing!!!

We can't say enough how wonderful an attorney and human being Mr. Compan is! He knows so many people in the judicial system and has a stellar reputation. He is highly respected and, from the way he managed our case, it was easy to see why. He was always on top of it and explained things every step of the way. He is organized, meticulous, knowledgable, and his instincts are spot on. Just that would earn him 5 stars, but on top of it, he is one of the kindest people we've ever met! He genuinely cares for his clients and gets to know them personally. You're not just a dollar sign to him. He fought for our family the way anyone would for their own relative. We highly recommend Mr. Compan!

5 star 💫 review! 5 star 💫 review! 5 star 💫 review! 5 star 💫 review! 5 star 💫 review! While we all understand that people view things differently and the court verdicts can and will be viewed by some people as good and by others as bad. That is not the case with me. It is undeniable the results attained by attorney Ed Miley for me. My case was a child custody and support case. Honestly I actually felt quite abused by the family court system until I retained his services. You hear often of the great attorneys that come out swinging or in my case attacking like a prize fighting pit bull. Needless to say the results were and are outstanding. I felt that the process from start to finish was both fair, swift and the results/outcome extremely satisfying. Thank you for fighting for the little guy that didn't feel like he had a voice in the matters of what happens with my child. I highly recommend only if you're going for the jugular. Thanks a million.

Unfortunately, my experience with this attorney was not positive. If you’re going through a divorce for the first time, I would recommend seeking someone else to guide you through the process. Mr. Miley was impatient, dismissive of my concerns, and seemed unwilling to answer my questions thoroughly. His demeanor felt combative, which added unnecessary stress/anxiety to an already difficult process. Additionally, the financial aspect was frustrating. I recently paid $150 for a ten-minute consultation, only to leave feeling like my concerns were ignored and my anxiety heightened. When I attempted to follow up, Pam, the person handling communications, was unprofessional and rude in both phone calls and emails. This is just my personal experience, and I sincerely hope yours will be better. Good luck in your search for legal representation.

I was referred to Lianna Urfalyan, and while you never want to be in a situation where you need an attorney for custody-related issues, I was so grateful to have her and Mark DiCiero as partners during this challenging time. The entire team is professional, information is shared promptly, and you never have to guess where things stand. They're thorough, strong without being bullish, well-informed, and walking into court with Lianna by my side made me feel confident and secure with the position I was in. Everything turned out for the best, thank goodness, because of her experience and professional insight. Without a doubt, if an issue arises in the future (hopefully not), I will not hesitate to call Lianna or refer her to others needing an attorney. You don't have to do any of this alone, and if you're able to have an attorney represent your best interest, I truly and highly recommend Lianna Urfalyan.

The research she did was time consuming for all of us, but worth it in the long run, she presented the best arguments that awarded me the win. Rebecca was committed and devoted to my case. I highly recommend her. If you want a LION on your side, she’s the one!!!!

McAvoy Amaya & Revero , Attorney's at law are an awesome law firm that went far above and beyond my expectations. I am 65yrs old and I have have had many attorneys take advantage of me and were very dishonest and hard to reach when ever I needed to talk to them. Attorney Tim Revero was referred to me by another satisfied client and personal friend after being fired by Shook and Stone law because the man that hit me lied and denied hitting to them and his insurance company and their was no witnesses. That didn't stop attorney Tim Revero from fighting for me and my family and also getting me the best doctors and medical treatment to not only get me a very large settlement but my health was also restored so that I can enjoy a sizeable amount of money in good health. If your looking for a honest and very skilled personal injury law firm contact Tim Revero partner of McAvoy Amaya & Revero.

The experience received by attorney Trevor Hatfield was phenomenal, to say the least. Although borrowing the motto from another familiar business due to it's ideal application, I must say, I immediately knew we were in good hands! We approached the elevator and took it to Hatfield and associates offices. Suddenly, surrounded by glistening white walls beautifully garnished with interior floral decorum, I felt encompassed within a style of professionalism and class. The leather seats were comfortable and of quality. Even the cylindrical glass tabletop shone so immaculately, you'd have felt comfortable eating food served directly upon it! The ladies at the front desk were pleasant. We did not wait long before Mr. Hatfield invited us beyond the door into a private conference room. Trevor Hatfield was clearly a gentleman of stature and wisdom, an asset to his trade. His skilled approach to the issue at hand was reassuring, and suddenly we took comfort for the first time, knowing that things will work out exactly as they should! Mr. Hatfield was thorough, went over every detail of the case, explained our options, and confirmed we understood what was needed to move forward successfully. There is no doubt his representation is top notch. Hatfield is an attorney who won't nickel and dime you; he genuinely cares about doing the job well and taking proper care of his clients. Trevor Hatfield has been a recipient of the city's recognition, and was awarded as such. He was readily referred by other colleagues within the same field and he takes the time to adhere to each case in order of finding an appropriate solution. He is worth the expense of a high priced lawyer, while willing to help those who are justified in their predicament. I wanted an attorney of moral integrity who was truly discerning. Hatfield's shrewd observational ability and keen eye for detail quickly identified convolution dwelling behind the veil built by a condescending company. Hatfield uncovers corruption beyond efforts to keep it hidden. He is one of the good guys, ready to support cases, big or small. Within our current world's state of affairs, he found the silver lining within a formerly bleak situation. We were victims of a targeted circumstance, and now may finally obtain recourse! There is hope because of individuals such as Hatfield; he stands for justice and truth, and in that, no failure could exist. I commend your firm and highly recommend your services to anyone who needs solid representation pertaining to any area within the vast field of employment law.

At times, this kind of planning can be a bit nerve wracking, and he has a great sense of when well-placed humor is needed!!! He will meet with you in person when/where it's convenient for your busy schedule. We feel blessed to have Robert Morris and GMD in our corner.

She was very efficient with communication . I never had any issues with getting ahold of her . She was amazing in the courtroom . She was aggressive and fought hard for me . She was always on time and took hours of her time to prep me every time we had to go to court . She was knowledgeable and a strong advocate for me when I really needed it, even helping me to advocate for myself when I had never been able to do so before. I highly recommend Julie Raye as an attorney and would definitely use her again !

My Father passed unexpectedly and thought he had his estate taken care of because he paid for his funeral in advance and had assigned an administrator/power of attorney to handle his affairs. The nightmare began about 30 days from his death when the administrator my Dad had assigned failed at his duties. From lies and misinformation that cost me thousands of dollars and having to move out of the house, storage fees as well mis-filed paperwork. When it was apparent that the administrator was in over his head and the estate was going nowhere with threats of foreclosure and the integrity of any assets that my Father had worked so hard to pass down, the decision to call Lee Drizin was made. From day one Mr. Drizins firm took control of the mess on hand and navigated the probate process seamlessly. Janine @ Drizin Law is an asset you cannot put a price on. The absolute best communication I've ever encountered in all my 53 years on this planet. From explaining this difficult and confusing process to her countless 2 minute email replies, her dedication and service to her job and her customers is unmatched. The best advice I could ever give to anyone is to establish a trust for your estate if you care that your wishes be carried out after your death AND call Lee Drizin to handle the process for you. You will not be disapointed!

There's a reason Lee Drizin is so highly rated on Google, and it's because he is a really good attorney. I'm a young woman, still in college, and when my mother passed unexpectedly and suddenly, I wasn't sure what to do to handle her estate and everything that comes after someone passes. I found Mr Drizin on Google, and it has been history ever since. Him and his team are constantly available to answer any questions one may have during the entire process, and he has steamlined the entire thing to be as painless and direct as possible. It is not easy at all, as there are so many accounts nowadays that people can have, but I was always directed to who exactly to contact and what to do. My advise is twofold to anyone going through the probate process after the loss of a loved one: one, use Lee Drizin, and two, make sure to keep on top of all you have to do on your part to get paperwork and documents. These are the best ways to make it as painless as you can. I also want to thank Mr Drizin and his team for also suggesting an accountant to help with the final tax documents, which also smoothed the process. With decades of experience, it clearly shows in everything Mr Drizin does to run his attorney's office. I cannot recommend him enough. I'm not sure how the other attorneys compare, but I can guarantee that he knows his stuff and gets it done here.

We have had the pleasure of working with Joe Riccio and his staff recently for our son's divorce. He was 21 when he got married, and was married in CA, where his ex still resides. We weren't sure if two states being involved would be tricky. Joe knew exactly what needed to happen, and when, to benefit our son, and our case. His expertise was very apparent in our consultation. The whole staff was incredible. Each person that had a hand in this, was extremely professional, empathetic, and always answered our questions in a timely fashion! There was also tons of communication, which can be lacking with some firms. The process went very smooth, and was resolved much quicker than anyone expected, given the circumstances. We cannot thank Joe and his staff enough for their dedication to our family in getting this matter resolved! I would use Marathon Legal again in a heartbeat! Lisa and family

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
