I can't say enough good things about my experience with David S. Kapp! I found him on TikTok and decided to reach out for help with my traffic case. From our very first conversation, he was incredibly professional and attentive. I hired him on a Sunday, and to my surprise, he had everything sorted out by Monday afternoon! What impressed me the most was his exceptional efficiency and communication. My court date wasn't scheduled for four more days, yet he got everything done well in advance. David ensured that I was prepared and informed every step of the way. He took the time to explain every detail and addressed all my questions, which made me feel confident and supported throughout the process. His responsiveness was remarkable—anytime I reached out, he got back to me quickly, which really eased my anxiety during this potentially stressful situation. Additionally, I found his billing to be extremely reasonable, especially considering the level of service he provided. David was transparent about his fees from the beginning, and there were no hidden costs or surprises. This straightforward approach made it easy for me to budget without worrying about unexpected expenses. If you're in need of a traffic attorney, I highly recommend David S. Kapp. He’s not just an attorney but also a true advocate who genuinely cares about getting the best possible outcome for his clients. His blend of professionalism, expertise, and personal attention is truly exceptional. Thank you for everything, David!

Steven Raiser’s law firm handled my case with excellence throughout the process. I had a SBA EIDL loan that got transferred to the Department of Treasury unexpectedly, and had a 30 % penalty added to the amount due, and due very quickly, which was very stressful. After talking with Steven Raiser, and working with Harry Gill who was absolutely brilliant in working with me and preparing the case, they were able to recall the case to the SBA. They were always available quickly, to address my concerns. Having dealt with some law firms before, I really appreciated this. Very grateful and appreciative to Steven Raiser and Harry Gill. Great work.

I have a Tenant who went from ok to really bad, stopped paying rent when asked to vacate property in October 2021. So had no choice else than evicting them. Mr. Naveed is a great help. He advised me not to get into nitty gritty, he simply asked me do i need to get the money or get the house . I wanted house so he recommended and moved with holdover case. We got judgement our favor in November and we already have warrants of eviction which can be executed, in case they don't move out by given date. So probably sheriff will have to evict them. Thanks Mr. Naveed.

I am very thankful for Naveed. I had a commercial eviction case that started before covid. The tenant refused to pay and dragged the case on for almost four years. After 2 unsuccessful lawyers, I found Naveed. He was incredibly knowledgeful about the process as well as how to handle the tenant lawyer and judge in a manner that allowed us to be successful. He knew the fastest and the most efficient way to end the case and that was all I was looking for.

I can't be more happy that Deborah was the one that picked up my phone call, since the very beginning I could tell that she loves what she does cause in her tone of voice you can tell that she's willing to help everyone from the heart. After a conversation of 40 minutes I dont gonna keep looking for more Law Firms instead of doing that. I'll call back to Deborah and that's why I've saved the phone number that I used to call. Thank you very much again for your help Deborah.

Unfortunately, I had EEOC issues that I could not resolve with my employer. After several weeks of searching for a law firm with the knowledge, ability and resources to take on an EEOC case against a large agency, I heard about Tully Rinckey, PLLC., Allen Shoikhetbrod, my attorney at Tully Rinckey, is phenomenal. Allen is extremely knowledgeable about EEOC and government agency issues. Experienced, honest, professional, detail-oriented, empathetic and warrior are words I would use to describe him. Tully Rinckey is a professional law firm that cares about the individual, not just the numbers. There were no surprise or hidden fees, phone calls and emails were promptly answered. The legal representation and advice provided during my case was well worth the cost. I would definitely recommend Tully Rinckey to family and friends.

I was close to receiving a probationary dismissal from a supervisor with negative re-hire codes as a reprisal for an EEO complaint. Although his behavior was unlawful, I had next to no options and was repeatedly harassed by the legal office to sign a vague resignation contract with an NDA clause that I was not comfortable with. I was referred to Mr. Allen Shoikhetbrod by a friend (who is also an attorney but unable to take the case). Allen immediately took action by contacting the legal office and rewriting the resignation contract to be completely in my favor. I never felt pressured and knew the firm had my best interests at heart. My family and I received the outcome we needed/desired in a period of two weeks! I could not be happier. Thank you!

David Coombs saved my career, passion and livelihood. My initial request for information from him received a quick and thorough response. After retaining David, he quickly went to work. Once I saw what he was doing on my case, my stress levels decreased significantly. David was a true advocate for me. He worked hard and was always reachable. Best of all, he is experienced, knows the military legal system very well and had the respect of the members at the Flying Evaluation Board as he is a Lieutenant Colonel in the Army Reserve with over 20 years of service. David’s use of technology was also very helpful. I enjoyed using the collaborative website that allowed me to see and track the work being done, witnesses contacted and communications with the Command. This system was user-friendly, excellent for organizing the case and streamlined communication between the two of us. David Coombs has my highest recommendation if you need someone to fight for you and your career. He is highly skilled, responsive and dedicated to his clients.

I am so glad we ran into Mr. Coombs and that he, agreed to take our case. My daughter is an active duty U.S. Army soldier serving in South Korea. She was wrongly accused of multiple charges under a 15-6 investigation, this case was a real juggernaut, a 32-page indictment with all kinds of twists and turns. Mr. Coombs quickly reviewed the case and gave us his initial assessment. Even though we were over 6K miles apart, he always made us feel like we were right next door, access, communication and feedback was quick and insightful, questions were tough but reflected his interest and commitment to the case. As the case progressed, we started to realize his defense strategy, its was simply brilliant. At first, I was a little hesitant to engage a lawyer without a face-to-face meeting, but he definitely have proved me wrong. He never over promised but was clear on the direction and kept us informed on possible courses of actions. The final outcome was a complete vindication, this was a relief for our entire family, I was, to say the least, very happy......none; not a single recommendation from the Investigating Officer against my daughter was validated by the decision-making authority, the entire case was basically discarded, she got her career back along with another chance to move forward thanks to Mr. Coombs' outstanding defense. BREAK; I would like to take this opportunity express my most sincere gratitude to Mr. Coombs, first and foremost for taking our case, asking the right (tough) questions and putting such a brilliant defense into action. We would not have had this outcome if it were not for his hard work, dedication and expertise. Again, thanks David for all your support, now I know how to find you the next time we need the very best legal representation in all military matters. V/r Gil

This is my first time working with Lawyer Victor and I'm impressed with the result. His communication with a client is superb! I got a ticket for disobeying a traffic sign in The Bronx of which I didn't even see the sign and there wasn't any pavement marking also, so I was left with two options either to plead guilty and pay the ticket with "2 points on my license" or give it a try by giving the case to a Lawyer. Upon a recommendation from a relative, I gave the case to Lawyer Victor A. Bernace. I got the ticket dismissed yesterday. With great emphasis, I recommend him to anyone because his rates are affordable, and have a very effective communication style.

Victor A. Bernace, Esq is a knowledgeable, honest, affordable and patient lawyer, who communicates clearly. Even before I hired him, he was very generous with providing me counsel and information about my situation. He provided me a link to connect virtually to the court to appear for my hearing, which I had no idea I could do. He was also honest about my situation and the likelihood of winning. Additionally, he won my case and sent me the notes he prepared in order to do so! I would give him ten stars if I could!

As a residential renter, I was befuddled and nervous about a complex new lease my landlord presented me with. Teddy charged a reasonable flat rate to look at my old and my new lease, defined key terms, and let me know if I had anything to be concerned about. I didn’t. He’s warm, smart, and loves his work.

After researching several different attorneys to seek out legal advice in regard to my landlords failure to make repairs, I took notice to Teddy's great reviews, and called his office. He was so patient, informative, and gave my wife and I much needed legal advice to best handle our situation. Not only did he hear me out, but I could tell that he was passionate and caring in regard to our frustrating situation. My wife and I feel like we have someone in our corner now. That is enormous for us as we have had our backs against a wall for 19 months. After speaking with Teddy I feel empowered now knowing our rights as NYC tenants. I highly recommend his services to anyone with landlord/tenant issues!

Joni is a first class attorney - she was extremely responsive & knowledgeable, and handled my case very strategically. Her advice was always on point, emotion-free, and smart.

From first consultation to signing my settlement Fred was top notch throughout the entire process. Emotions on my end were hugh and Fred helped to calm me and provide me with what to expect which is exactly what I needed and what happened. His knowledge and expertise helped to get me exactly what I was entitled to. Fred is the person you want on your side when things start to get tough, he is strong and passionate and fights for what is important to you. He tells you exactly how it is, even when you don't want to heaf it but I wouldn't want it any other way because he's honest. He isn't a lawyer that just continues to charge you for everything and takes pride in his work.

I had an urgent legal matter that needed immediate attention. Without any delay whatsoever, on the day of the issue arising, Russ was able to strategize on the correct actions providing multiple options, and we selected the optimal strategy moving forward in order to deal with the problem. The turnaround was astounding, impressive, and much needed. The issue was resolved the same day, and the immediate connection and ability to speak directly greatly helped everything within the process. Unlike other law firms that you have to work through an army of admin assistants, working with Russ was easy, fast, and I received expert-level resolution without any back and forth or time wasted. I always prefer working directly with the experts due to efficiency and getting the right answers instead of wasting time or any miscommunication and Russ's law practice was able to to resolve my issue efficiently and exceeded my expectations. Thank you, Russ, for all your support and expertise!

I was terminated by my employer and I thought I had a case. I was either ignored or turned away because of "conflicts of interest." Russell came by way of a referral from a Labor Rights website and I am so grateful. He really looked into my case and listened to me. When Russ believes in something, he's passionate about it. I don't know anything about law and he made sure to explain each phase and had multiple courses of actions so I always knew all my options and was fully involved in each decision. At first, I was so worried. My employer had a team of legal professionals and a lot of money to pour into litigation and I definitely do not. Russ was a one man army and handled each interaction with tact and grace. In the end, we won the claim and I know it was all due to 2 things; the truth and Russ. I will continue to recommend anyone having any issues with current or former employers to Russ. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication. Thank you for all your patience and mental fortitude!

I want to thank you for helping me to obtain my green card through VAWA. It was an arduous and difficult process for me, since I had not been able to go see my family for years. You have been an angel that God put in my path. I went through very difficult and desperate moments. I wanted to leave the USA and put everything aside, but you always gave me encouragement that we had a good case and we would achieve it. And so it was, with God's help and with your commitment and dedication we did it!! ! Your degree of professionalism surprised me to see how hard you worked on my case. Today I thank you because with your help we were able to achieve it. I am so happy that I do not know how to express my gratitude, I can only express my infinite thanks and may God continue to bless you greatly.

My wife and I were in need of a lawyer. After 47 years of home ownership we were leaving for Florida and wanted a younger firm to represent us while we were in the process of relocating. A colleague of ours mentioned Eric Stowe and we set up a quick meeting to meet him. We were both impressed immediately with his friendly and approachable demeanor. But, knowing his extensive background and experience made our choice quite easy. We just looked at each other and knew right away that Eric Stowe was our guy. Eric and his paralegal, Lori, remained at our side throughout the selling process. Abstract Title searches, instrument land surveys and documentation of allsorts was expedited and, when needed, UPS Overnight Air shipped to us for signatures. No small undertaking. We are most pleased to recommend The Eric Stowe Law Firm to anyone in need of professional legal services. We could not have asked for more. Nor will you!

Chad helped me to obtain my green card, in a situation that was far from typical. Though I was married to a US citizen, I had to travel constantly for both work, and personal reasons, and my case really fell into a grey area. Chad was able to help me navigate the process with relative ease, and provided assistance whenever I needed it. I will be contacting Chad again in a few years, to obtain my citizenship. Thank you for all your help and support.

Highly recommend!!! Many years ago my father met with Laura Dunathan to do his estate planning. She was incredibly thorough, efficient, and patient. Laura explained everything to my Dad and made the entire process easy!!! Years later, sadly, my mom passed without any estate planning completed and Laura Dunathan has helped me throughout the entire process with compassion and care. If you are looking for a firm who will put you first, look no further than Dunathan Goodale PC. Laura and AnnMarie use their years of experience to make sure their clients are prepared and protected for the future. After working with Dunathan Goodale I know I have #DunGood for my children and future.

I recently worked with Jenice to negotiate a business buyout, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From the start, Jenice was incredibly helpful and deeply invested in achieving the best possible outcome for me. Her expertise and dedication were evident in every step of the process. She was always prompt in her communications, ensuring that I was kept informed and that everything moved along efficiently. Additionally, her billing was extremely fair and honest, which I greatly appreciated. Overall, I highly recommend Jenice to anyone in need of legal services. Her professionalism, commitment, and fairness make her an exceptional choice.

Jenice Malecki is an excellent attorney and extremely reliable. My family had a shocking, horrible, and extremely stressful experience that their money, all their savings were stolen all of a sudden. We had no idea what type of lawyer we needed, we had no experience in issues like this and we didn't know any lawyer. It was extremely shocking and complex involving at least 2 huge financial institutions globally known and brokers. After doing tons of research, I found Malecki Law to be one of the best in the Financial Industry. We decided to have a consultation with her to get to know more about her experience in issues like this. We are so thankful we decided to hire her. Jenice Malecki and her team (including Darryl J. Bouganim) are extremely hard-working and highly experienced. They helped us day and night trying to solve our problem. It was an extremely hard case. It would not have been solved if it weren't thanks to the fact that we had Jenice Malecki as our attorney. I realized how important it is to have a really good attorney (and I repeat, it HAS to be that good when the stakes are so high and the case is so complex and hard) on your side with experience in this particular field. I feel it's important that whoever is reading this and if a similar situation happened to you, that you know that Jenice Malecki is truly one of the best in the securities industry! My family is extremely thankful that we found her. I'd definitely recommend her and her office with no doubt at all! It's very easy to communicate with her and she keeps you updated throughout the case. She really cares about her clients. She is excellent at trial too when the stakes are so high and you have to prove your case. She is also very honest and transparent with everything, including expenses and fees. You won't get any surprises or hidden fees. Extremely professional, ethical, experienced, and knowledgeable in what she does! We ended up working with her for over 3 years!

9 months ago, I reached out to Joseph at J.S. Fritzon Law to see if he would be able to help me litigate a case between an abusive employer and myself. He told me in the beginning it would not be a very big case however he would be happy to take the case based on the information that I provided. Over the next 9 months he was attentive to the case he was responsive to me and he treated me like a human being. In the end he got a decent settlement for me. I would highly recommend using this person. He is a patient attorney and very effective. My former employer was hedge fund billionaires. They had no intention of treating me like a human being.

Mr. Fritzson knows the law better than any person I have ever met. But it was his preparedness that truly won me over. He filed three motions before I even knew and I was back in the arms of my family. He called my mother 2x a day. He worked tirelessly on my behalf. And when all was said and done, he helped me win my appeal case and go home. I am choked up just thinking about how much he saved my family. My mom now carries his picture with her in her purse and she invited him to Thanksgiving.

I cannot sing the praises of Mr.Ungaro and his staff, loudly enough. When we first spoke on the phone, I was impressed that he instructed me in a very pragmatic manner on what my options were, and possible outcomes if I were to allow his law firm to represent me. He made it clear he could not guarantee the outcome that I was looking for, but reassured me that he and his team would do their best to help me achieve the result that I sought. I am very happy to say that his words were not empty, because that's exactly what he did; I got the results I'd hoped for, and "won my case". Every member of his staff that I dealt with, were stellar in their actions. This firm exceeded my expectations, and I'd advise anyone seeking representation in this firm's area of expertise, to unhesitatingly engage them to fight on their behalf.

I'll admit that I felt a little reluctant to let Randy handle my case. He's very young and I was concerned that a lack of experience would hurt me. I needed a lawyer that could make sure the ethics issues related to my bar admission wouldn't stand in my way. And I thought Randy might not be the person to handle it. All of my concerns were unfounded. Randy was the perfect lawyer for me. I have no complaints whatsoever and have nothing but good things to say. I gave a 5 star review, so obviously, he handled the legal aspects appropriately. But more than that, Randy recognized that being a lawyer requires something that doctors would call "bedside manner." Each case may just be a case to a lawyer, but to the client, it's their life. And he made it seem like my case was as important to him as it was to me. I can look back now and admit that there were times I behaved unreasonably or irrationally. This case was a big deal to me, and it elicited big emotions. Randy did an incredible job of making me feel like my response wasn't absurd, while also directing me toward behavior that was more helpful to my situation. I'm a lawyer now, in part, due to Randy Tesser's efforts. And I can tell you that it's rare that a lawyer is so capable of commiserating with his client, while also pushing them appropriately, while also excelling at the law. I highly recommend him.

I am one of thousands of out-of-state attorneys licensed in New York State who had their license unknowingly suspended en masse by a court order years ago after leaving the state and no longer filing bi-annual registrations. In my case, the NY license was not required in my new state of practice, where I also had obtained a license by passing that state’s bar exam., so my suspension persisted unbeknownst to me. Upon learning of the suspension, which was extremely unsettling to me, the best thing I did was engage Randall Tesser. He has extensive experience in the reinstatement process. Randall clearly outlined an approach and was highly skilled in successfully reinstating my license according to the accelerated timeline he laid out for me. Along the way, I found his counsel, advice and work product to be highly skilled, empathetic, judicious and very responsive. I highly recommend Randall Tesser to anyone finding themselves in a similar situation.

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.
