I wrote a really long review on the link the staff sent me in email however it does not appear here. I really want to recommend this firm to normal people sometimes face difficult situations that need legal assistance from professionals. Daniel helped me to reduce my loss to 0 and he really fought hard for my best interests. Christy is so nice and comforted me when I was under huge pressure. They are so knowledgeable, professional and empathetic. I would recommend this firm to anyone that need legal services.

I am thoroughly impressed and happy with my representation by Patty throughout my divorce and custody case. I had numerous complicating factors and she was able to help me win custody and finalize my divorce. Patty’s compassion, professionalism, and attention to detail were invaluable to me in a time where my life was understandably very hectic. Her communication stayed consistent and she took the time to make it feel very much like I mattered. I highly recommend Patty and Warnock Family Law!

It’s hard to find someone you can really trust in this town. Well, if you’re looking for an attorney, look no further, Joe Gersten is your man! He’s amazing in more ways than anyone can explain. 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.

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.

Their ability to communicate clearly and compassionately made a stressful situation much more manageable. Thanks to their relentless efforts, I received a fair and favorable outcome.

I cannot thank Mr Bret Whipple and his amazing team enough for helping me bring my mom After my previous lawyer made significant errors in handling her case, I was overwhelmed and unsure of what to do. It caused me depression, anxieties because that was my dream to bring her here. Thankfully, Mr Whipple stepped in and completely turned the situation around. His knowledge of immigration law is truly impressive, and he handled every aspect of the case with professionalism, care, and dedication. He took the time to explain the process in detail, answer all my questions, and ensure every document was accurate and complete. Throughout the process, I felt supported and confident that my mom's case was in the best possible hands!!! Thanks to brilliant Mr Whipples expertise and hard work, my mom is finally here with us, and I couldn't be more grateful. If you're looking for an immigration lawyer who truly cares about their clients and goes above and beyond, I wholeheartedly recommend BRET WHIPPLE !!! He is the lifesaver!!!!!!

Attorney Gary Zernich and his entire team were exceptional during my encounter with them. Mr. Zernich was objective, thorough and very candid even when it was not the response I wanted to hear. He guided me throughout my legal proceedings, responded promptly to my inquiries and constantly kept me updated on the status of my case. He gave me legal counsel but ultimately allowed me to make decisions which were in my best interest. I highly recommend Mr. Zernich to you if you need an expert in his field and if I had to do this all over again, I'll still request his service.

I met up with Mr Beckett, he and the whole staff was so pleasant. They explained the process and answered all my questions. The fact is this, they are half price and trust me I checked. The lawyers and staff are very knowledgeable and professional, they are second to none. They got my case dismissed, and I couldn’t be happier with the quality of service I received.

Not only did they spend an hour with me, but Davis Amberlea also provided valuable advice on my case. Their friendly and informative service exceeded my expectations.

Corey Eschweiler and the ER Team did a great job on a recent case for me. However, I realized when I started to write that this is more than a one case review. For over 25 years, Corey has been our trusted go-to lawyer in our personal and business lives. Through the ups, downs, good, bad, successes, failures and life challenges for over a quarter of a century, he has been there for our family – and been a solid rock for us. (Justin and Miriam too!) It is hard to summarize so much of life in a brief Google review, but these are people and a firm you can trust.

Joe Nold was recommended by a fellow attorney to represent me in a business partnership dispute. As a long practicing attorney myself, I have had the opportunity over the years to observe both the quality of other attorneys’ legal work as well as their relationships with clients. Based upon my experience, Joe’s legal competence is unsurpassed. Further, throughout the duration of my litigation, I was treated like family by Joe and his staff. If this review allowed, I would add a sixth star!

I was in an accident back in July. Didn’t really know what to expect from hiring an injury attorney, but I made a great choice with Lerner and Rowe. I especially want to give a shout out to Stephanie, who was the main individual I spoke to regarding my case. She was upfront and honest about the process and about how long it would all take. She would follow up when I would call and when she told me she was going to call on a specific day, she would call right on time. She’s amazing! My case is finally settled. So everyone should be realistic about the timeline it takes for cases like this to be resolved. Thank you!!

Tom Standish and his associates, mainly Phillip Spralding, do not practice evidence based law. They are scum bags, who pander to vulnerable females in difficult times to maximize their firms profits. They do not care about the best situation or well-being of children. They more focus on how they can exploit the imperfect system of family law for their maximum benefit. They are racist. I don’t know how they have such a high rating on this platform, but I strongly disagree. I hope this firm, and attorneys of this shallow caliber lose their credibility as soon as possible.

I have the good fortune of endorsing Mr. Standish as both my lawyer and a peer. Tom Standish could possibly be THE BEST family law attorney in the state of Nevada. As a client, I appreciate his calm, level-headed approach to RESOLVING your family law issues. Family law is perhaps one of the most emotionally draining areas of legal practice for a client, but his solid, steadfast approach is productive and encourages settlement, rather than a destructive approach that encourages long-drawn out legal battles. Make no mistake, he will be your BEST advocate in a complex divorce matter. Divorce by nature, is no fun, but he helps manage the exit as seamlessly as possible.

She treats clients with the utmost care, concern and compassion. Her and her team always have you and your children’s best interest at heart. She helped my entire family navigate an extremely difficult time and went above and beyond. This led to settling the divorce in a much faster timeframe than originally anticipated. I will forever be grateful for her knowledge and expertise!!

Both the staff and attorney Sprenz were kind, patient, and professional — actively listening to her situation without judgment. This is unusual behavior for talented litigators.

I was referred to this firm. The person who referred me worked with Joe Riccio for their case. Different types of case but nonetheless, she used this law firm. I worked with Kristina Kirigin and unfortunately had a terrible experience. There was a lack of communication from the beginning. I was never spoken to or prepped before any hearing. The bill just kept racking up. The paralegal asked for the same documents over and over again. When I told Kristina my expectations, she stated that her only job was to get me the guardianship. She did that and that's it. There was no guidance at all. I wasn't even aware when I officially got the guardianship since that was not communicated. They also did not notify me when another partner at the firm was going to represent me. All I have to say is I am happy I chose to stop working with this law firm and self-represent. Unfortunately, I made this decision after losing over $6k of legal fees. This is likely from communicating the same thing over and over again. Also, going to court over and over again due to their lack of communication and preparedness. Ex. I would submit something to them and they would not file it. Or, they would ask me to complete something the day or the Friday before the hearing. Only towards the end was the communication a little better. By that time, I was already out $5k. ALSO, they assumed I had access to a shared drive which was NEVER given to me in the 10 months they represented me. So, the new lawyer who took over my case assumed I had access to this shared drive. More wasted time as I was in town and unable to complete what I needed to do that required me to be in person.

I am more than grateful and pleased with the results I received with Kristina Kirigin!! I highly highly recommend this attorney after carefully reviewing several attorneys in nevada! My choice was left between her and Joe riccio before learning that they actually worked together. I was in a highly contested custody battle in between 2 different states with another very aggressive attorney representing my ex. I found Kristina Kirigin after having to fire my last attorney and she was able to turn my entire case around that was originally going in my ex's favor due to his constant lies. We went to trial and prevailed with me getting primary physical custody, final say with legal custody, no travel and attorneys fees!! She made my ex tell the truth which broke his entire case.  She also worked out a payment plan with me during the process. Kristina Kirigin and her paralegals are life savers! They were all very  quick with responses to each email, text or call I made.

I was recently in a very difficult and time-consuming child custody and support legal battle. The matter needed a good attorney who can dedicate more time and apply practical experience on family law. I have interviewed several different attorneys and researched to find the best attorney for my case. I found Kristina Kirigin to be the most knowledgeable and experienced attorney in family cases. She represented me competently and in a timely manner. The court outcome was positive. I highly recommend Kristina Kirigin for anyone who needs a good legal advice and representation.

Mr Onello charged 30k but simply did not do his job for the amount he charged. The divorce got dragged out much longer than it supposed to because Mr Onello wanted to charge maximum for the minimum work he did. At the end, I had to file my own forms because he was asking for more after I paid 30k. The case is listed as Cassel vs Cassel in Clark county so this is a legit one star review. Avoid at all cost. One last point I want to make. Mr Onello spends more time removing one star reviews than actually working so I would assume all the 5 star reviews are not legit. Don't fall for false reviews like I did.

I went in for a consultation but definitely will go back and hire Donn. He’s knowledge is out of this world! he listened to everything I had to say, and trust me, I had way to much to say and so many questions lol. He’s Not like you're typical money hungry attorneys that give you a free 5 min consultation don’t answer your questions, don’t care about you, and only see you as as a dollar sign then they pressure you to hire them. I wanted to interview a couple more attorneys before making my decision but I definitely came back. Special thanks to Jessica she’s amazing! she has a great personality and you can hear even over the phone how much she loves her job. She answered a few questions with out giving me legal advice. Definitely the best first impression counts! And she’s by far exceptional. She went far and beyond to help me.She called me too come in sooner than my original scheduled appointment. Since she had a cancellation not something I expected or ask for but that was just amazing customer service. When I entered the office she immediately greeted me with a beautiful smile and I find that very important it shows they appreciate your business. After speaking to Donn and Jessica I have made up my mind and definitely hired him. Donn’s experience is exactly what I was looking for! I consider my self lucky for finding Donn to be my attorney. Thank you Donn and Jessica you guys rock!!

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.

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.
