Geoff did a wonderful job of informing my wife and I right from the beginning of everything we could expect and all that he will do with my situation. Within two months my criminal case was dropped and I feel that I owe a lot to Geoff for keeping my record clean and working hard to make sure it happened in a timely manner. I would highly recommend the Womack law firm to handle your criminal case. They are very professional and prompt when dealing with case and I cannot thank them enough.

Geoff is a great family oriented lawyer who made every effort to keep me informed and aware of what was going on throughout my case. More importantly, he provided exceptional results in a timely and professional manner. His staff was amazingly supportive and helpful, and he always made time for my phone calls without making me feel rushed. He is honest about the situation and will give you straight answers to all of your questions. I would highly recommend him and his firm for anyone who is tired of being led on and belittled by other lawyers.

I'm an attorney myself, so when it came to choosing an attorney to assist me with applying for disability retirement through the Federal Employees' Retirement System, I tried to do my homework and thoroughly research attorneys and law firms. I spoke with several, and ultimately felt the most comfortable and confident with Mr. Wersing and his team, including Bethany Sissons, a paralegal. They did not disappoint! From thoroughly explaining the process to me, to giving me clear directives on what I needed to do to help prepare my claim paperwork (it's the government - there's tons of paperwork to gather and complete), to answering my questions, to keeping me informed about where things stood in the process, Mr. Wersing and his team did a great job, and my application was approved on the first try. I credit that in large part to the aforementioned paralegal, Bethany Sissons, staying on top of the development of my paperwork and making sure I had a complete and correct application. For anyone considering hiring someone to help you with the FERS disability process, the reality is that nobody can do the whole thing for you. There is a lot of back and forth with your agency and a lot of documentation that you, as the employee, have to help gather (even if you're just filling out medical record release forms to send records to the firm, rather than getting your own medical records and forwarding them yourself (which is faster)). But Mr. Wersing and Ms. Sissons broke down the tasks I needed to complete to help them help me into a clear, actionable plan, which, again made the process smooth and, most importantly, successful. Finally, I found the cost structure extremely fair and reasonable, given the value received.

I had run through at least 20 different firms when trying to find representation for my federal case involving the FDA...and it was so disheartening I had to do this after 21 years of service to that agency at the time...to say it was exhausting and discouraging was an understatement. I found Aaron and his firm after three weeks of searching the internet and calling different firms, who charged ridiculous and outrageous amounts of money for representation...I had reached my wit's end before I found Aaron and his firm. I spoke to him and his staff and started the ball rolling for my case. They worked with me regarding fees and payment, went over the relevant issues, and looked at all scenarios to negotiate a settlement and help me to move from my area to get out from under that mgnt line...the mngt was pacified when they saw I hired this firm and for while they left me alone... I was shocked and surprised that they had attorneys who represented federal employees in their cases...Aaron kept it real and Andrew Young who was representing me at the time, also did. They provided expertise and possible outcomes and worked with me and tried their best to mediate and finally go to EEOC court regarding my issues...it was a long process and I had to keep my documentation in order and fight for myself as well as they, but I COULD NOT HAVE DONE THIS WITHOUT THEIR HELP...IT FELT LIKE I WAS FIGHTING FOR MY LIFE AND MY CAREER DEALING WITH THIS FEDERAL AGENCY AND ITS CORRUPT MANAGEMENT LINE...AND I COULD NOT HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT AARON AND ANDREW'S HELP...I am happier now as I have moved from the previous mngt line and their branch and Aaron and Andrew had negotiated a settlement agreement with the FDA for my restitution...but again I COULD NEVER HAVE DONE THIS WITHOUT THEIR HELP...fighting the govt is exhausting, disheartening, full of pitfalls and dishonest mgnt people and can make you question your life's purpose, but I am grateful to have found this firm and its attorneys...this is a true account and someday I will write a book about my struggles and those who helped me.

Carrie really went above and beyond during what was definitely the most stressful time in my life. She genuinely wanted the best for me and was thorough and compassionate every step of the way. She is obviously experienced and knows exactly what to expect and prepared me so well for what to expect. She went through every detail with a fine tooth comb and I highly recommend her to anyone.

My friend’s license got revoked because of the mistake on her address. He took my friend’s call and worked on her case right away, and got her license reinstated within 7 weeks, though not fully dismissed but he and his team are working tirelessly to restore my friend’s license back, and we are confident that they will. Truly I recommend atty. Yong and his team for an amazing work they did. And mind you, he won’t keep asking you for attorney fees. Truly blessed she picked him. May God bless him and his team!

I've been a board certified Registered Nurse since 2015. Pediatrics has always been my back ground. In 2020 I worked PRN for a home health company and met the sweetest little boy. He is trach/vent dependent, immobile, and non verbal. He was fully dependent on nurses and his mom. In February 2021 I decided to go full time. I was working over 60 hours a week helping his mom care for him. The BON and nursing school they tell you not to get attached to patients. That's harder said than done. His mom and I became great friends. We are both single mothers. Well, by fall of 2022 I started working less and dating. The mom was irritated because I wasn't there. Mind you, I still worked 40 hours. Every day I would come to work and this poor kid was filthy. Diaper overflowing, trach was disgusting. Mom and I started to be irritated with each other. He was on seizure precautions and the lights had to be off or dim. In October 2022 she called the office and accused me of sleeping. Of course that's a big violation. I was let go (my boss came in the morning, I wasn't told I would be let go until after my shift was completed) weird how the mom felt I was endangering her child yet let me stay another 12 hours. 🙄 Well the company filed a complaint with the Texas BON. I was terrified to lose my license. I'm a single mother and didn't know what I would do. I reached out to Yong on the last few days of the cut off to respond to the Board (I procrastinate). He was able to stop any action the board would have taken. He video chatted with my that night and discussed details. He made me feel comfortable and helped ease my anxiety on the matter! I barely had to do anything after I hired him. A few documents and a written paper on "why I wanted to be a nurse" easy right? I finally received the news yesterday that the BON dismissed the case and expunged it from my record!! So from 10/22-6/24 Yong took care of my case! I don't think I would have been able to do it alone! Thank you so very much Yong! You guys... I highly recommend him!!

However the Crystal Henry Office helped so much from emotional support to paying for all my MRI’s and therapies. Today we have closed the case and I am satisfied with the results of how everything turned out. Bless this office and the entire crew. Big shoutout to Ana for taking over my case.

I had 100% confidence in their readiness to go to trial on my behalf. My case was dismissed and now I can go on with my life unimpeded.

Non fake review. I also have paperwork I can load with pictures that I was a client if this were to get denied. I should have placed this review long time ago. They dropped the ball on my case I paid a lot of money for them to only lose the evidence on court day. They simply said there’s nothing we can do. In his video he explains how he likes to get people and court while there defenses are low. That is an accurate description of how they act when they can’t/ couldn’t win against the court. they take the same approach to their customers after that. If they’re willing to fix this problem without additional cost to myself I’d be glad to change the review.

I was referred to this law firm by Godsey/Martin (Ijustgothit.com). They didn’t want to do what was necessary to take my case to trial if need be. This man; Mr. Presutti gave me is direct cell number, told me that he promises to never get more than his client, and that I can call anytime. Everything he said came true. There is on other person I would trust more than Mr. Presutti to handle any litigation for me. He took care of me on all fronts. If I called, he answered; if he didn’t answer, he called me right back. I mean he does things unexpected of attorneys.

I cannot speak highly enough of Bob Bennet and the exceptional legal representation he provided during my character and fitness hearing before the Texas Board of Law Examiners. His expertise and dedication were instrumental in securing the approval of my character and fitness to practice law in Texas. From our very first meeting, Mr. Bennet demonstrated a deep understanding of the nuances involved in character and fitness evaluations. He took the time to thoroughly review my case, asking insightful questions and offering candid advice that proved invaluable throughout the process. What truly sets Mr. Bennet apart is his ability to navigate complex legal proceedings with both professionalism and compassion. He meticulously prepared our case, leaving no stone unturned in gathering supporting evidence and crafting compelling arguments. His attention to detail and strategic approach were evident in every aspect of our preparation. During the hearing itself, Mr. Bennet's presence was nothing short of impressive. He articulated our position with clarity and conviction, effectively addressing any concerns raised by the Board. His extensive knowledge of Texas law and the bar admission process shone through in his eloquent presentation and quick thinking. Perhaps most importantly, Mr. Bennet's unwavering support and guidance helped ease the stress and anxiety that naturally come with such a critical proceeding. He kept me informed at every step, patiently explaining complex legal concepts and always making himself available to address my questions and concerns. The positive outcome of my hearing is a testament to Mr. Bennet's skill, dedication, and effectiveness as an attorney. Thanks to his efforts, I can now pursue my legal career in Texas with confidence, knowing that my character and fitness have been thoroughly vetted and approved. I wholeheartedly recommend Bob Bennet to anyone seeking top-tier legal representation, especially in matters related to professional licensing and character and fitness evaluations. His expertise, professionalism, and commitment to his clients' success make him an invaluable ally in any legal proceeding. Thank you, Mr. Bennet, for your outstanding service and for playing such a crucial role in launching my legal career in Texas.

His deep understanding of the law, coupled with valuable relationships within the Board of Law Examiners (BOLE), made a significant difference in resolving my case with them. His direct approach and deep knowledge led to a swift and favorable resolution. Bob is not only a skilled attorney but also genuinely empathetic, making a stressful situation much more manageable. I'm grateful for his exceptional representation. One of the administrators there actually commented that Bob is one of only a handful of attorney’s that regularly appears before the BOLE and knows what he is doing.

I had a character and fitness hearing with the Texas BOLE and I can confidently say I made the right choice in picking Bob Bennett. He guided me throughout the entire process, adequately prepared me, and had me on my way as a licensed attorney. If I ever had any concerns, I could call Mr. Bennett or email him and he would always pick up and respond right away. I highly recommend Mr. Bennett for any licensing issue!

Mr. Goss has represented me for the entire time my disability claim has been in appeal stage and at each level (NOD, DRO, BVA and even CAVC) we have increased rating percentages. I'm very satisfied with his representation. He understands the complex law and that is what is needed to prevail in a VA disability claim.

Attorney Goss is not only a veteran himself with a disability, but also a straight shooter and very professional during the VA Appeals Hearing. My case has been in process for 20 years and before hiring Mr. Goss I was getting nowhere, however, after my recent hearing with the Judge I truly feel I will finally achieve success.

Troy Moore was extremely helpful to my family during very difficult times. After my father passed, he guided us through the challenging and confusing probate process. When my mother passed a year later, he again provided excellent help and support with our estate issues. Like most people, I had no idea how to settle my parents' accounts and deal with all the other legal issues involved when someone dies, so I cannot thank Troy enough for his work and support. He was always available to answer questions, clearly explained everything that we needed to do, and was always prompt and efficient with everything. I highly recommend consulting with Mr. Moore for any estate planning and related problems!

Title: “Unethical, Unprofessional, and Part of a Systemic Problem – Avoid at All Costs” Review: I trusted Charles Johnson to represent me in a critical legal matter involving my rights as a parent and the safety of my child. Instead, I encountered unethical conduct and a lack of professionalism that I believe reflects broader systemic issues within the legal community. 1. Failure to Follow Instructions: Mr. Johnson refused to file motions that were critical to my case, despite explicit requests and legal urgency. Instead, he pursued strategies I advised against, which I believe were contrary to my best interests and to those of my child. 2. Broken Promise for Refund: After withdrawing from my case, Mr. Johnson explicitly promised in writing to refund my retainer. However, he later reversed that promise without justification. 3. Neglect of the Best Interests of My Child: Mr. Johnson’s inaction and disregard for my instructions directly contributed to delays and worsened the legal situation for my child. His failure to address critical legal violations has exacerbated the harm my child has endured. 4. Part of a Larger Problem: I believe Mr. Johnson’s actions align with systemic issues of unethical behavior within the local legal system. His failure to prioritize the law and his client’s needs reflects a disregard for justice and ethical standards. It is my opinion that his conduct perpetuates the very systemic rot that undermines trust in the courts and legal professionals. 5. Unprofessional Communication: Mr. Johnson and his staff failed to communicate adequately, delayed responses to critical matters, and ignored requests for accountability. These failures reflect a lack of professionalism and integrity that no client should have to endure. Conclusion: I believe Mr. Johnson’s actions have caused irreparable harm to my child and my legal case. His refusal to uphold his professional and ethical obligations is unacceptable. Recommendation: I strongly advise against hiring Charles Johnson. In my experience, his actions contribute to systemic issues in the legal community and have caused significant harm to me and my family. Jeremy Oluma

Her ability to combine intelligence, unwavering dedication, and a results-driven approach with genuine compassion and a strong human connection is unmatched. Mekisha made a challenging situation manageable and gave me peace of mind throughout. If you’re looking for the best attorney, look no further—she’s it!

Attorney Jordan is thorough, professional, kind-hearted and most importantly he GETS THE JOB DONE. From our initial consultation he was very considerate of my unique situation; As an out of state full-time professional student, my future was at stake for a crime that was completely out of my character and that would surely hinder my my career pursuits if convicted guilty. As a first time offender with so much on the line, Attorney Jordan fought my case and got it COMPLETELY DISMISSED. I took an 8 hour online theft course and that was it..NO FINE, NO COMMUNITY SERVICE.. just a class. I had high hopes when I hired Attorney Jordan but he has far surpassed my expectations. A case dismissal in Houston is rare; so, that alone speaks volumes. But to say the least, I truly believe that Attorney Jordan will do all that he can for the benefit of is clients, and not to mention, he was accommodating and affordable for my fixed income. Strongly Recommend!! :)

What a Government Lawyer Can Do for You

A government lawyer specializes in legal issues related to government policies, regulations, and disputes involving public entities. Whether you are a private individual, business, or government agency, a government lawyer provides expert guidance on navigating the complexities of government law. These attorneys handle cases ranging from constitutional law, administrative law, regulatory compliance, and government contracts to defending or challenging government actions.

Government lawyers help individuals and organizations understand their rights and obligations under the law, represent them in disputes with government agencies, and assist in matters of government contracting, procurement, or public policy.

When Should I Hire a Government Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a government lawyer in several situations involving government regulations, compliance, or disputes. Common reasons to hire a government lawyer include:

  • Government contracts and procurement: If you are bidding for or negotiating a contract with a government agency, a lawyer can help ensure compliance with federal, state, or local contracting rules.
  • Regulatory compliance: Businesses operating in highly regulated industries (e.g., healthcare, finance, environmental sectors) often need legal guidance to comply with government regulations and avoid penalties.
  • Government investigations: If you're being investigated by a government agency such as the IRS, SEC, or EPA, a government lawyer can help defend you against allegations or negotiate settlements.
  • Challenging government actions: If a government agency has denied a permit, license, or benefit, a lawyer can help you appeal or challenge the decision in court.
  • Constitutional and civil rights issues: If you believe your constitutional rights have been violated by a government entity, such as in cases involving free speech or discrimination, a government lawyer can help you seek justice.
  • Public policy or lobbying efforts: If you are involved in lobbying or advocating for policy changes at the local, state, or federal level, a government lawyer can provide legal advice on compliance with lobbying laws and strategies for effective advocacy.

Hiring a government lawyer early in the process can help you navigate complex legal frameworks and avoid costly mistakes when dealing with government-related legal issues.

What Does a Government Lawyer Do?

A government lawyer provides a wide range of services that cover interactions between individuals, businesses, and government entities. They can:

  • Assist with government contracts: Helping clients navigate procurement laws, drafting contracts, and resolving disputes related to government contracting.
  • Provide regulatory compliance advice: Offering guidance on meeting regulatory requirements for industries subject to federal, state, or local laws.
  • Handle administrative law matters: Representing clients before government agencies, such as appealing administrative decisions, applying for permits, or defending against regulatory enforcement actions.
  • Challenge or defend government actions: Representing clients in lawsuits involving government agencies, including constitutional challenges, civil rights violations, or disputes over government decisions.
  • Negotiate settlements with government entities: If a government agency is pursuing legal action against you or your business, a lawyer can negotiate settlements to avoid costly litigation.
  • Advocate for policy changes: Advising clients on legal strategies for influencing public policy, including lobbying and drafting legislation.
  • Litigate constitutional issues: Handling cases related to the Constitution, such as First Amendment rights, due process violations, or unlawful government actions.

How Are Government Lawyers Paid?

Government lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the nature of the legal work involved. Common payment structures include:

  • Hourly rate: For ongoing legal matters, such as regulatory compliance or government contract disputes, lawyers may charge by the hour. Hourly rates can vary depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
  • Flat fee: For specific services, such as drafting a government contract or filing an administrative appeal, some lawyers charge a flat fee.
  • Retainer: For clients who need ongoing legal support, such as businesses frequently interacting with government agencies, a lawyer may charge a retainer fee. This is an upfront payment that covers future legal services.
  • Contingency fee: In some cases involving litigation, such as civil rights violations, a lawyer may work on a contingency basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case.

It’s important to discuss fee structures with your lawyer during the initial consultation to avoid surprises.

How Much Does a Government Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a government lawyer depends on the complexity of the legal issue, the lawyer's experience, and their fee structure. Here are some general cost estimates:

  • Hourly rates: Government lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
  • Flat fees: For specific legal services, such as drafting a government contract, flat fees can range from $1,000 to $5,000, depending on the nature of the service.
  • Retainer fees: A retainer for ongoing legal work with government agencies can range from $5,000 to $20,000 or more, depending on the scope and frequency of the work.
  • Contingency fees: In cases where a lawyer works on contingency, their fee is usually a percentage (typically 25% to 40%) of any settlement or damages awarded if the case is successful.

Be sure to get a clear estimate of costs during your consultation to ensure that you understand the fees associated with your case.

Top Questions to Ask a Government Lawyer

When hiring a government lawyer, it’s essential to ask the right questions to ensure they have the experience and skills needed for your specific situation. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What is your experience with government law cases?
    Make sure the lawyer has substantial experience in handling cases or issues involving government agencies, regulatory compliance, or constitutional law.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Ask how the lawyer charges for their services - whether by the hour, flat fee, retainer, or contingency fee - and request an estimate of costs.
  3. What are the potential outcomes of my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment of your legal options and the likelihood of success based on your specific situation.
  4. How do you handle interactions with government agencies?
    Ask about their approach to dealing with government entities and their experience with specific agencies relevant to your case (e.g., IRS, EPA, SEC).
  5. Have you handled cases like mine before?
    Ask about their experience with similar cases and whether they have achieved favorable outcomes in the past.
  6. Who will handle my case?
    Clarify whether the lawyer you are meeting with will personally handle your case or whether junior attorneys or paralegals will do most of the work.

How to Check the Credibility of a Government Lawyer

To ensure you’re hiring a reputable government lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:

  • Check state bar association records: Confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Review their professional experience: Look for specific experience in government-related legal issues, such as regulatory compliance, government contracts, or administrative law, on their website or professional profile.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Check online reviews and ratings on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to get insight into the lawyer’s reputation and track record.
  • Ask for references: Request references from previous clients who have worked with the lawyer on government-related matters to understand their experience and effectiveness.
  • Check for membership in relevant organizations: Look for memberships in professional organizations such as the American Bar Association's Administrative Law Section or the National Institute of Government Procurement, which can indicate the lawyer’s focus on government law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first meeting with a government lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant information and documents. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Detailed description of your legal issue: Be prepared to explain your situation, whether it’s a regulatory compliance question, a government contract issue, or a dispute with a government agency.
  • Relevant documents: Bring any paperwork related to your case, such as contracts, permits, letters from government agencies, or notices of investigation.
  • A list of questions: Write down any questions you have about your case, including the legal process, potential outcomes, and costs.
  • Timeline of events: Provide a clear timeline of any relevant events, such as the issuance of government orders or interactions with government agencies.
  • Goals for the outcome: Be ready to discuss what you hope to achieve, whether it’s a favorable settlement, regulatory compliance, or overturning a government decision.

By being organized and prepared, you can help your lawyer understand your situation more quickly and give you the best legal advice moving forward.
