I can't thank Alana and Tom for their exceptional work in settling my case. Alana is knowledgeable, professional, personable, and in my opinion, deserves a raise. They're both great communicators and waste no time. I'm very thankful that my son, Matt Whiddon, recommended Tom and Pajcic & Pajcic. Job well done. I will not hesitate to refer others to your firm. Thank you.

I hired Jennifer and knew what I wanted but had no knowledge of the process. Jennifer was realistic and thorough. I knew what to expect from her consultations which helped ease my mind and that's how the process went. I was pleasantly surprised with the swiftness of the process. I would recommend her to anyone needing expert advice and wanting to get the job done.

Jennifer was amazing, Originally, I was going to try this case on my own I quickly realized that I was not equipped with the knowledge to this alone. From the moment I called Jennifer she was ready and on alert. I was so thankful! If you want an understanding lawyer to get the job done Jennifer is your women. She is determined and by your side every step of the way. I cannot forget about Ms. Michelle AKA Ms. Make it happen! She is dedicated and completely on her "A game" she was always communicating with me and reassuring. I will forever be thankful for these women they're God sent. Thank you so much for all your hard work and dedication.

We were referred to Cobb & Gonzalez after a bad experience with our contractor. They are experts in construction defect litigation. They were able to quickly reach a settlement before costly litigation. Not only do they understand the law, but they are business savvy and understand how expensive litigation is. We worked with Chris Cobb and Summer Reed. I would definitely recommend them. In fact, I plan to work with Summer on all future legal matters.

Patrick helped me with a complicated and drawn out case. As a healthcare provider facing legal issues can be detrimental, so having good representation is a must. I met with various lawyers, but Patrick’s knowledge of military law, rules, and regulations was extremely impressive. During our consultation call, with no prior knowledge of my situation, he was able to tell me exactly what the case would entail, the outcomes that I could expect, and accurately reference Air Force guidance. From the moment he began representing me I felt supported. He immediately began communicating with my command and advocating for me. Patrick fought hard for me and thanks to him we had a favorable outcome.

I hired Patrick Korody to help with my clearance hearing related to a guideline F item. Mr. Korody worked with me to identify the evidence needed to present a strong case and present it in the best light possible. Thanks to his experience, expert advice, and clear communication with the opposing council my case was dismissed in my favor prior to the clearance hearing. Additional details: While searching for an lawyer to represent me, I contacted several law offices. While I was impressed by the questions and responses I received from a few lawyers, Mr. Korody actually asked me to provide a few documents related to my case. After reviewing the documents I provided, Mr. Korody called me back and provided me additional feedback on my case. It was this additional attention to detail and personal touch that gave me the confidence to hire Mr. Korody. As you'd imagine with the results provided above, I'm very happy with my decision to hire Patrick Korody.

It was very pleasant working with Mr. Korody. During the free consultation, he gave me sound advice on what to do if I wanted to represent myself and also what he can do as my attorney. I chose to hire him because I didn't want to risk losing my clearance from any mistakes or lack of information I might have submitted on my own. Mr. Korody was very detailed and his communication level was excellent. I felt confident that he would resolve the issues with my clearance and he did! My clearance went through and I'm thankful to be able to celebrate the holidays without having that burden on my mind. I definitely would recommend him! He's an amazing attorney and a great person.

Upon receiving his Opinion Letter, I wrote him and his firm the following response: Mr. Tad: Thank your for your prompt delivery of this Legal Opinion Letter. Your work is proficient, professional, comprehensive, and most informative. Before contacting your firm, I researched to find your reputation and qualifications #1 in Jacksonville and among the top ranked within FL. Through your listening skills, workmanship, care, and expertise, I now know why you command such high regard within your profession. Outstanding job Counselor!

So I am definitely going to take the time to write about this amazing experience that I had with Christopher. Christopher walked me and my brother through the entire process of the litigation. I never had any doubts that we had this in the back. I recommend Chris to anyone that has any legal issues with life insurance.

I truly appreciated the fact that he was working on my case during those late hours, which is a testament to their dedication toward their client(s).

I had reviewed a few employment and labor attorneys/firms online and consulted a couple before being referred to his firm. His firm was recommended by another attorney and having that endorsement made it an easy choice for me. When I am looking for a specialist in a field, I expect that professional to know his/her trade like the back of their hand. James is very knowledgeable and diligent, and meticulous in his approach. He was very quick to grasp the nitty-gritty of my situation. I would have to say that my case was probably a little unusual and it turned out to be more complicated than I had initially foreseen but that did not faze James. He outlined the probable outcomes and developed a course of action. He gave good advice and patiently answered my numerous questions. His negotiation skills are par excellence and I believe that clinched the matter in my favor in the end. I would strongly recommend Attorney James Poindexter to anyone looking for legal counsel or representation in the area of employment related issues. He will meet or exceed your expectations.

An absolute amazing man and a wonderful staff to match. I didn't know how to use technology when he helped me in my time of need. So this is a few years after the matter. My husband had just passed away and I found out the insurance company didn't want to pay up. My sister referred me to this angel. He got me my husband's policy I was owed. It was a hard time for me and I didn't know how to deal with this part and i was crying uncontrollably . He was so professional, yet an understanding human. He told me to ake all the time I needed, because the thought of signing these papers seemed so final on his death, that it was a realization to me that he was really never going to come back to me. It's going to be 8 years on the 24th of February. Not a day goes by that I remember the kindness that he and his staff gave me, as this was and still is the first REAL loss (close to me), that I've experienced.

When Atty. Matthew Collett was referred to me to handle my case, the first thing I did was reviewed his profiles against the other attorney profiles that I had in my list. I was impressed with all that he had successfully accomplished and I said to myself "hmmm...this guy would fit in the case". He was actually the one that hit the bell and made my decision to retain him. He put in his full efforts and worked hard on my case for a reasonable and affordable charge. He listened closely and carefully to and understood my situations and/or opinions and provided with legal advice, he was really easy to work with, he advised me that my case could be referred to other attorney if it were outside of his expertise, and most importantly the untiring patience that he had shown throughout the entire case process. He was able to resolve my case in a short period of time with positive outcomes. Now, the biggest thing to me is that I am able to retain my employment because of his expertise. He is second to none with his undoubted dedication, knowledge, skills and abilities. I would definitely recommend Attorney Matthew Collett for consultation and eventually for retention to handle your case all the way through the end.

Whether it be something small like a traffic ticket or something major he makes himself available at all times. His dedication to helping his clients is something that really impressed me. Matt is also very well connected, there have been a few things that Matt was honest with me and let me know that isnt his expertise, but he was able to set me up with someone.

Going up against the SAO or the DOJ, the odds are already stacked against you. An attorney with the knowledge and experience like Curtis Fallgatter brings to the table, helps level that playing field. His office works together like a fluid team and I can promise you he'll outwork every attorney you have ever met. He works long hours and leaves no stone unturned. I've never met an attorney that worked as hard as he does for his clients. The situation and year I found myself needing Fallgatter's services was by far the worst year of my life. He helped me get through that year on a professional and personal level. No need to look further for an attorney give his office a call and see for yourself.

An absolute amazing man and a wonderful staff to match. I didn't know how to use technology when he helped me in my time of need. So this is a few years after the matter. My husband had just passed away and I found out the insurance company didn't want to pay up. My sister referred me to this angel. He got me my husband's policy I was owed. It was a hard time for me and I didn't know how to deal with this part and i was crying uncontrollably . He was so professional, yet an understanding human. He told me to ake all the time I needed, because the thought of signing these papers seemed so final on his death, that it was a realization to me that he was really never going to come back to me. It's going to be 8 years on the 24th of February. Not a day goes by that I remember the kindness that he and his staff gave me, as this was and still is the first REAL loss (close to me), that I've experienced. Thank you cannot begin to express or acknowledge the respect, and love I have for this man and his staff. Thank you isn't enough for the help and genuine thoughtfulness y'all showed me.

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.
