was referred and from the minute I spoke with her she put me at ease! She listened, asked questions, I was given options, and then always asked what did I want to do. She handled and knew every detail herself so it was personal. She guided me, instructed and taught me through every step of the process then gave me the option to file paperwork myself which reduced the cost! She is kind, sympathetic, relatable. She is loyal, direct, and tough when she needs to be. She is Exactly who you want representing you and if I could give her 10 stars I would.

For some one who was not from Maryland, I based how I found my attorney off of reviews and did I find the right one. Marvin Ochoa went above & beyond to make sure I got the best possible outcome in my case. I highly recommend him & would use him again in a heartbeat. He was easy to talk to & worth with & remained calm in times when I wasn’t.

Words can't express how much we appreciate everything you did for our family. Chris and EJ were so compassionate and so understanding. The research they did was nothing short of amazing (thank you, Myesha and Sara, too). Very thorough and efficient. They won the medical malpractice suit for our family, and we are so thankful. I would highly recommend this firm!

I’m truly grateful for the hard work and effort and outcome that we achieved, all thanks to the dedication of every member of the Brown and Barron team.

I had an outstanding experience working with Potter Law. From the very beginning, the team demonstrated a level of professionalism and care that truly exceeded my expectations. John and Kelsey, in particular, were incredibly knowledgeable and patient, answering every question I had along the way, no matter how small. Their attention to detail and willingness to explain everything thoroughly made a world of difference.
I was referred to Potter Law by my father, and I’m so glad I took his advice. What sets Potter Law apart from larger injury law firms is that it’s not about the number of clients they serve, but the quality of service they provide. They truly prioritize their clients and make sure you feel supported throughout the entire process. Their expertise and personal approach turned what could have been a stressful situation into one that I felt confident navigating.
I will continue to refer Potter Law to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney. Their commitment to their clients, combined with their extensive knowledge, makes them an exceptional choice. Thank you again for everything!

I wanted to share my experience working with Jim. We had tried several lawyers, but none of them were able to explain the process clearly. Jim, in just one meeting, walked us through the entire process, the strategy we would use, and what was needed. He was easy to get ahold of and our process went through faster than anyone I had heard of. I would rate him 10/10 and would use him again.

Jim is the MOST dependable & knowledgeable immigration attorney in the DMV area. We would 110% reach out to him again with any immigration needs in the future. No doubt, Jim is THE BEST OF THE BEST.
After our initial contact, Jim set up a virtual consultation to get more information about my wife and I’s needs (i.e. my green card application) and answered all of our questions (and we had a *lot* of them!) with clear and concise explanations. He thoroughly goes through every step and follows up via email promptly. He sent our papers on our behalf and made sure we heard back about any details as soon as possible.
As a result, our I-130 and I-485 were approved in 7 months from the date of submission, without any complications or RFEs. The interview was waived too.

I truly appreciated Rob Greenberg’s help and legal services with my divorce. It was not an easy situation, but I believe I was given appropriate and helpful advice. Rob took time to be supportive and encouraging when my situation became complex and daunting. Additionally, the law firm’s legal assistant, Ashley, was a dream and kept me informed of the details.
Rob will be my legal representation of choice in future matter.

If there was a way to rate less than one, this man and his law firm deserve a zero or a -5. Always unprepared. I never saw his office despite my multiple calls (a friend said "that is what they do in Baltimore and Annapolis"),
He will always get documents the day before court date or sometimes in the court house on the hearing date (when do you prepare a defense or a strategy dear attorney?)
He first advised to countersue just to bump up his time and money arguing that it was the best strategy in a divorce case. While this aggravated the situation with my ex-wife, he advised me to consent to a protective order where I did nothing and I had evidences and a witness (it was just a strategy from the other side to get me out of the marital property). Until this day I don't understand why you will ruin someone life just to make sure your firm is making money. Contersuing will mean that you are presenting another case against the plaintiff, which he never did, it was just a way to bill the time and make more money. Mr greenberg and his law firm are the place where you should never go. He prepared documents, billed me for the time spent preparing those documents and surprisingly never submitted the documents but I should pay for it while I was waiting to see the document submitted and was never aware that he decided not to submit my documents without consulting me. He sent me emails saying "this is what you can get at a minimum" but ended up going for less, still today, my ex still owe what came from the settlement under his magnificiently poor advice) and convincing me to let my ex take my son to another state under the reason that if we are in the state where the defendant was moving I will have 50/50 physical and legal custody. Anyone else who saw my case and evidences wondered why I did not get full custody. Why focus on my immigration status when I already had a brilliant immigration attorney and had/have no issue with my lawful residency in the US? In term of confidentiality, don't trust this man, He called my immigration attorney to discuss the status of my bill and make me look bad.
Today I have to travel from Maryland to Houston every other month to see my son, barely see/communicate with my boy, I'm still struggling because I have no family here and at that time I had been living in the US for 3 years including the 2 years I couldn't work, the support I was supposed to receive each month as child support for not making enough including my share on this marriage, the support my ex wife was federally binded to provide through a signed affidavit of support for leaving everything behind to come here were left on the table and this man called "greenberg" or "nightmare" is going after my wage under the pretense that I did not finish paying him. My marriage was not a success, but picking the phone and contacting this man based on fake reviews online was the worst thing in my life. I could have just show up by myself at the court house and get better outcomes. NEVER GO TO THIS MAN AND HIS LAW FIRM. He will put you in a worst situation than the one you are trying to get out off. It's because of this kind of man that some people don't trust attorneys/lawyers.

If I could give a 10 star rating, I would have! I was recommended to Charlene Wilson by my sister (who advised me that she was the best) and I can truly say she was right on the money!
I live in a different state; therefore, Charlene is not able to represent me; however, she took time out of her day to educate me and provide invaluable options & information that will surely equip me to ask the right questions and make the best decisions when looking to hire an attorney in my state.
Charlene was genuine and caring and her personality is amazing! Made me want to move back to Maryland so that I could retain her services! -- No kidding.
I could go on & on, but I will end with this. If you are looking to retain a lawyer in the MD area, you should 100% go visit Ms. Wilson & team!

A lawyer who doesn’t keep her words.
I used to delivery for this lawyer. Said will tip when handed but not or maybe “lawfully” yes. The security needs to call to confirm to let me in and I ring the door when I arrived. There re sounds but she tends not come to avoid tipping. Considering the hard parking and hard entry, it kind of funny that a LAWYER doesn’t keep her words. All I can say is look out, my friends. She tends to use law to fight for her benefits from everything, maybe it’s from you, her clients, too.
------------------------------------------
First thank you for your time to reply instead of delete my review which actually surprise me and make me want to give you a better star score for you honesty until I saw what you state afterwards.
Second Sorry about your pronoun, I didn't know it. I've changed them to show respect.
Last, the security have to call you first to make sure you have delivery to let me in. So you knew the delivery guy's coming. I knocked/ringed on the door several times before I hit the complete button and then knocked/ringed your door again to see if I could have the chance to get the tip. I couldn't wait longer which I see you a lawyer should understand perfectly. Even though I'm just a delivery guy I can't wait you for more time than I could after all steps I've done.
I understand you want to keep this review for purpose. But NOT BY SLANDER ME.
And everyone, I know my comment won't change your mind, as from her comments, she seems to be a very excellent lawyer in the field she excels in. But I think I still have the right to leave a message, so that everyone can see a comment from another perspective.
P.S. In the future, if you plan to tip other delivery workers, I hope(I simply hope that you would consider giving a tip. After all, not tipping isn't against the law, right?) you'll do so even if we can't deliver directly into your hands for some reason and have to leave the order at your door. Please understand that we're doing our best. It's quite challenging to get close to your office.
More importantly, as a busy lawyer, you probably can't always be available to hear the knock and open the door for every delivery, right? :)

I am satisfied with the way my legal representative presented during the conference with CPS regarding my case of unsubstantiated child maltreatment, I am satisfied with how my divorce case is handled by the legal team, the only issue with this law firm is that it charges a lot of money even before the case goes to court so if i have any questions it will be about billing

My husband and I hired Justin to develop our wills and medical power of attorneys for us. The process was seamless. He called us to discuss the initial details, asked us questions and promised to develop the paperwork. In a couple of weeks, the paperwork was completed and we met with Justin to sign the documents. The process was simple, effective and Justin was very efficient. He addressed all the questions we had along the way, was extremely approachable and he comes highly recommended.

Morgan Leigh counseled me during my application for the Maryland Handgun Qualification License (HQL) application process. With her assistance I was able to successfully navigate the Maryland HQL process resulting in an approval of my application. My case was complicated due to a prior (40 year) old out of state run in with the law at the tender age of 19. With Morgan's advice and counsel I was able to confidently approach the process with a much-needed understanding of case law addressing my regulated firearm status in Maryland. I would add that Maryland State Police were also helpful and the process was very smooth. Morgan has created YouTube content that addresses many aspects of Maryland and DC gun Law. Based on my requirements I consider her one of the best gun lawyers in the state of Maryland. I would highly recommend her services in the area of 2nd amendment and Maryland Firearm law.

Morgan Leigh counseled me during my application for the Maryland Handgun Qualification License (HQL) application process. With her assistance I was able to successfully navigate the Maryland HQL process resulting in an approval of my application. My case was complicated due to a prior (40 year) old out of state run in with the law at the tender age of 19. With Morgan's advice and counsel I was able to confidently approach the process with a much-needed understanding of case law addressing my regulated firearm status in Maryland. I would add that Maryland State Police were also helpful and the process was very smooth. Morgan has created YouTube content that addresses many aspects of Maryland and DC gun Law. Based on my requirements I consider her one of the best gun lawyers in the state of Maryland. I would highly recommend her services in the area of 2nd amendment and Maryland Firearm law.

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.
