Ms Lenore is trustworthy explains every step by step and takes actions and delivers the ultimate goal in a professional cristal clear manner. Just trust the process! When my husband and I met Ms Lenore we only had a ITN number and now thanks to her we are US Citizens. We are forever grateful thank you Ms Lenore!

I was originally introduced to Alisha through a referral, and I am SO thankful I was. Throughout what you can imagine is always a stressful process (anything court related) she was great in every aspect. Not only is she educated, but she was patient with me when I jumped 10 steps ahead in the rabbit hole of “what ifs.” Alisha was always honest and made me aware of what was happening, or what could happen next. What will resonate with me, and definitely make me a return client, is that I never felt alone. I never felt a “where is she.” I’m 100% sure I was not her only client, but I felt like I was. I was confident knowing I had her on my side and that is what mattered the most to me.

To say that I highly recommend Maya Pinchman of Ratner and Pinchman doesn't even begin to cover it. I worked with Maya on my father’s estate and she was extremely knowledgeable, proficient, and kind. I was going through a horrific time dealing with my father's illness and countless people who made everything worse, and then I found Maya and she literally saved my father’s estate and me from overwhelming stress. It was an involved case filled with many obstacles and difficult people, and she expertly handled legal matters, and guided and coached me. I will always be grateful to her.

Matt Terry is a phenomenal DUI attorney, hands down. Searching for a lawyer can seem like quite the task, especially in a time of overwhelming chaos. I was lucky enough to have received a personal referral from a reputable source who has witnessed Matt's successful results. From the minute I walked out of our first consultation I felt like I could trust him. I valued the fact that he was personable; I didn't feel like I was "just another client." I knew he was genuine because after I hired him he continued to "walk his talk." His passion for the law is captivating and it sure shined in the court room. He handled my case throughout the entire event and there was never a doubt in my mind that he wouldn't defend me to the very best of his ability. Being in this position for the first time was terrifying but Matt made sure that my story got told. I went in looking for results, and that's exactly what I got.

As many of you Veterans may know the claims process can be long and arduous and even painful at times. I had been wrestling with the VA and their claims process for many years before throwing my hands in the air. I saw a Facebook ad for Cameron firm, and at that point, I had all but given up. I kept seeing their Facebook ad come up, and I’m not sure what made me dig a little deeper, but I decided to read some of the comments that were below, and the feedback was so great I decided to give them a chance. I am so glad that I put my case in the hands of Jamie Kolpein, and Cameron firm. The result was more than I could ever of hope for. for some reason the process goes better when you have attorneys adept at wrestling the VA for you. If you’re sitting on the fence as to whether you should let them represent you, don’t. The little bit that comes out of your claim proceeds far outweighs, the pain and frustration that you will go through without them on your side.

The Lord sent me to Cameron law Firm and sent me a wonderful caring Angel named Lindsey Sampson. The five star service I received was unbelievable and very much appreciated. I received positive results from my claims in 3 months and approx 1month later I was granted 100% service connected disability. Lindsey was supportive and encouraging. I highly recommend this law firm that provides you with Professional and knowledgable services. I will be forever grateful to the firm and Lindsey .

Sam played a critical role in protecting my acupuncture license. Apart from his foresight, understanding of the law as well as the intricacies of the administrative process - he has the ability to listen and understand different circumstances/cultures/backgrounds in formulating his legal theory and strategic counsel is what sets him apart. You can find lawyers anywhere, but you can't find one that really wants to listen and follows up and see through the entire process. Everything in relation to my license ended up working out and Sam played a huge role in ensuring that this was the outcome. Can't thank him enough and hopefully - everyone can feel confident in turning to Sam when in need.

I was looking for a good criminal defense attorney to defend me in a domestic violence case. It was a case of total misunderstanding and the cops acted totally out of context against my wife's wishes. Facing severe consequences, I consulted so many attorneys until I consulted Mr. Stepen Brodsky. Unlike others who sees every case/consultation as an opportunity to earn money, the most striking quality about Mr. Brodsky is that he is very understanding of my situation and took the time/effort to help me understand my legal options and how to proceed even before I was his client. I believe he doesn't measure all cases with the same yardstick which comes from his vast experience and genuine nature to help others. His approach from the onset was very efficient. He acted quickly to minimize the damage so that the case doesn't blow out of proportion. Based on our situation, he devised the best possible defense and convinced the DA to understand the truth in our case. He made sure that the DA sees our case with a different perspective as our situation was due to a total misunderstanding. One thing I want to mention here is that he never look at us (me and my wife) separately, but rather as a young couple in trouble. Even though technically he is defending only me, he always acted in the best interests of both of us, which I could defintely say is not how any other attorneys would have done. Ultimately he was able get the charges dismissed which is very important for us. We couldn't afford to have a case like that as it would have haunted us for the rest of our lives. We were very glad to have chosen Mr. Brodsky to represent us. We would forever be grateful to Mr. Stephen Brodsky. If you need a defense attorney with tremendous legal experience and compassion to help your case, look no further than Mr. Stephen Brodsky.

Some charges are more serious than others. But, the severity of any criminal charges could only be assessed by how adversely it affects the one facing them. Sometimes, the smallest of charges would do severe damage to a law abiding person's life. I believe the attorneys at My Criminal Defense law firm understand it better than anyone. I was falsely accused of something that I didn't do. All the attorney's before I spoke to Mr. Stephen Brodsky, thought of just accepting a deal with minimum damage. They didn't even care to understand how much even accepting something like that would damage my reputation, career and ultimately my life. Only Mr. Brodsky was passionate enough to understand that and help me to fight the charges and got rid of them completely. Not just Mr. Brodksy, other attorneys who assisted in my case all showed the same compassion which is wonderful to see now a days. I would definitely recommend My Criminal Defense/Mr. Stephen Brodsky to anyone in need. Thank you Mr. Brodsky and team. You are awesome!! keep doing the good work.

Like many Veterans, I filed a claim with the VA for a host of illnesses, to include two bouts of kidney cancer, which resulted in the removal of half of my right kidney and complete removal of my left. As a result, I have been on daily dialysis for the past two + years. After receiving the VA rejection letter, I spoke with an old Air Force buddy and close friend who several years ago also filed and was rejected. He told me that after fighting the VA for nearly five years, he reached out to Attorney Eagle. Attorney Eagle took his case and began the appeal process which resulted in a 100 % service connected ruling from the VA. I put off calling her and my buddy kept pestering me to pick up the phone and to give her a call. Finally, I quit stalling and gave her a call. I knew within the first minute of speaking with her that she was a fighter and that her mission in life is helping Veterans like my buddy and I to get the benefits we deserved. We talked for a good 30 minutes and then I heard her say “You have a case “. That’s all I needed to hear. She went right to work on my appeal and within a reasonable amount of time, I got the call that the VA had reviewed my appeal and I was rated 100 percent service connected disabled. I could hear in her voice how excited she was to be able to tell me that. So, if you are looking for someone to help you appeal the VA denial of your claim, you should look no further than Attorney Katrina Eagle! If she takes your case, she will work her heart out to get you the benefits you have earned and deserve. She will stay in touch with you every step of the way and will always respond to your calls or email. She is simply an amazing Attorney and a real champion for Veterans and their families. Give her a call - you won’t be disappointed!

I served in United States Air Force from 1970 – 1974. I was stationed at Anderson Air Force Base in Guam from 1971-1973, as fuel specialist. During that time, I was exposed to many different toxic chemicals including Agent Orange. I was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2011 and then two years later with thyroid cancer, the residual effects dramatically affected not only me but my family. After speaking with a representative for the Missouri Veterans Commission, I submitted a claim for exposure to Agent Orange. That claim was immediately denied. After this denial, the representative suggested I seek legal representation and was given the name of Katrina Eagle, Esq. Veterans Law Attorney. Little did I know then the dedication, tenacity and compassion this woman would show me for the next ten years! Over the course of the last ten years, numerous denials, frustrations and moments of utter disappointment and lack of the energy to continue this fight occurred, however Katrina was always there never wavering in her support and encouragement to not give up the fight. The Board of Veterans Affairs (BVA) denied our claims several times, the cases were then submitted to the US Courts of Appeals not once but twice and both times the Courts sent them back to the BVA for review. Thanks to Katrina and Jim Radogna’s continued support, knowledge and empathy for me, I am now at 100% disability. Never could I have imagined this outcome and will forever be thankful for their continuous support and encouragement to never give up the fight!

My Air Force veteran husband was in the hospital for eight months with an acute leukemia when we heard about Katrina. She took his case and worked through all the red tape and an appeal to get him into the VA and ultimately a settlement. I too am an attorney, but could not have managed this process without her. Be prepared, its a long process, lots of "hurry up & wait", but if you can produce the info she needs to make your case, she knows the system!

When one team member took another job, the firm's paralegals stepped in quickly to make sure there were no gaps.

I can’t even begin to express my gratitude for all that Alexandra and her team have done to help me work through a difficult tax situation. After years of sleepless nights trying and failing to resolve my tax concerns on my own, Alexandra was recommended to me by a local accountant. We had a handful of in-person meetings to bring her and her team up to speed on my situation, and within a short period things started to fall into place. Like most tax matters, this did take a fair bit of time to fully work through (around a year), but Alexandra and her team where there for me every step of the way, ensuring I understood the entire process, and in the end I saved a huge amount of time, money and grief. Working with Alexandra has truly been a life changing experience, and truncated what felt like an ever spiraling tax nightmare into something I could manage, and now put behind me. I fully endorse Alexandra and her team.

My experience with Liz Bumer has been exceptional. She is very thorough and spends a lot of time researching and reviewing, as any counselor should. While working on one of my family member's case, she was offended by the ignorance and unfair treatment a commissioner giving my brother. Liz immediately took action. She notified us every single step of the way. She is determined to do the right thing and does not hold back. With a fighter like Liz in our corner we are sure to be successful. I appreciate her willingness to send after hours messages to me about the case Liz keeps me informed as soon as she knows anything more. I feel more transparency to the case when I deal with Liz, she fights for what is right and just. Due to her diligence and research, she comes into court prepared. She has a level head and a sound mind. Her professionalism and respect far exceed many of her colleagues. Her compassionate approach to her caseload is noble and commendable.

I was in the market for a lawyer to help me clear my arrest record for a DUI that the D.A never filled charges, but the arrest was still on my record. I was all set to meet with another lawyer the day after I gave Brian a call, but I was referred to Brian from another lawyer contact that I picked up from my job. Called his office, got him on the phone, explained my situation, he told me exactly what he would do and how much it would cost. I wanted to set up a face to face meeting or we could have just corresponded via snail mail. I chose the face to face option. I went to the previously scheduled meeting with the other lawyer. The other lawyer said what Brian proposed to do could not be done and was going to charge me 85 percent more then what Brian quoted. I thanked him for his time and went to my meeting with Brian. When I met with Brian it was painless, I peppered him with questions about wether I was legally entitled to the remedy he was seeking. He said that I was, a direct contradiction of the previous lawyer that I talked to. After signing things that allowed Brian to represent me I again asked him when I could expect a result of the remedy he was seeking with SDPD. He gave me a one month turnaround. I walked out of his office reassured. And only spending a tiny fraction of what the other lawyer was quoting me. The month came and I got a letter from Brian with what he had promised from SDPD. He also requested that my arrest be sealed and destroyed. This was the same process that the other lawyer was going to charge me an arm and a leg for. I called Brian and got him on the phone right away, asked how much the extra motion was going to cost. He told me not to worry and will discuss any extra fees dependent on how SDPD responded to the request to seal and destroy. Again this was a request that the first lawyer said that SDPD usually never grants. Brian on the other hand told me to wait it out for their response. He again gave me a one month deadline for them to respond. Before the one month deadline I got another letter from Brian indicating that SDPD had agreed to seal and destroy the record of the arrest. I can not thank Brian enough, I can legally and honestly answer any question about wether I have ever been arrested with a resounding NO. Do your research first and talk to Brian and see what he says. I trust him 100 percent.

She listened carefully to my situation, formulated our strategy and provided me the guidance I needed to bring about a reversal of my claim. She outlined a series of carefully directed questions to layout a clear path of the events, the path that the judge could follow to make the determination in my favor. She reached out to me promptly with her plan and coached me repeatedly and reassuringly. She was calming and thoughtful when I was suffering from serious anxiety.

My wife and I found Bob Weaver with a Google Search because we needed a lawyer to deal with a disreputable contractor that was trying to extort us for purported work he had done on investment real property we owned in San Diego. This legal work to stop this illegal activity was way beyond what we were expecting. He is good! Later, he helped us with our home search as our real estate broker and with the mortgage process. We have the highest regard for Bob and the services he offers to clients. Highly recommended.

Danny is generous with his time, forthcoming, and attentive to clients' needs. I appreciate his knowledge, his willingness to help, his stature and his seriousness when it comes to even the smallest of legal problems. He will make himself available and he will tell you how it is. I used Danny's services to set up a Trust, I relied on Danny when I had a business location issue, and I called on Danny when I had a labor dispute. Each time, Danny was there for me. He told me how it was and helped me to the fullest capacity. Danny is not the type of person you meet and instantly want to hug, but when he comes through, guns blazing, you won't stop hugging him. He's not a bullshiter, he's a doer, and everything he's done for me was quality work and didn't cost me an arm and a leg. I really appreciate Danny as an attorney and as a friend.

Shaneela is a great attorney. I had filed for disabilty social security and was denied. I contacted Miss Marlett and she was not only kind and understanding she won my case and I am now receiving my benifits. I had one issue after and she took care of that has well. I could not have gotten through all of the waiting and forms if it were not for her. I would highly recommend her for any one trying to get Social Security Disability.

This review cannot fully express my profound gratitude for all that Patrick Griffin and his team have done for me. I was wrongfully accused of a crime I did not commit, and despite being attacked in my own home, I was the one charged with a felony. When I was arrested and charged, my attempts to assert my innocence fell on deaf ears within the justice system. Those who did listen, did not believe me. Having never been arrested or charged with anything in my life, facing a felony charge was a terrifying experience. I felt alone, until I found Patrick Griffin. Patrick was not only kind and empathetic, but he also listened to me. From the moment I shared my story, Patrick believed in my innocence and fought relentlessly to prove it. Patrick and his team were always available to address my questions or concerns, keeping me informed every step of the way. I never felt ignored or treated as just another case. Patrick’s fierce advocacy in court never wavered. My case began as a felony charge, but with Patrick’s help, it was reduced to a misdemeanor after the preliminary hearing. This later led to the pursuit and granting of diversion. Ultimately, Patrick was able to get my case dismissed. Searching for an attorney in San Diego was overwhelming and at times, seemed hopeless. I write this review to encourage others in similar situations to seek out Patrick Griffin. He is truly one of a kind, and I cannot thank him enough for giving me back my life

Robert Daniels is above and beyond what you need and want in a LAWYER, or when experiencing any of the uncomfortable, scary times in your life (Divorce, Being sued, Leins, legal issues) where you need an EXPERT wtih experience on your side. As some of these other reviews have said, you want EXPERIENCE, but also someone who is compassionate and caring AND able to explain things in understandable terms and determine what your situation needs, and what the risks and exposure is. Lets face it, I am an expert in my field, but I cannot possibly know what and when to do things legally, in my best interest. To talk to someone who at the end of the conversation, you KNOW you have recieved the best of advice and will have the best of council is all you can hope for in the world.

Robert Daniels by my side was PRICELESS. He's the whole package! I have tremendous gratitude for the communication, support, wisdom, experience & protection Robert gave me. His results were everything he promised & what I hoped for. Before I hired Robert, I took part in a drawn out & unfair court battle with my former spouse. I was ready to give up. I felt so helpless & defeated. Then my friend, Randy referred him. During my first phone call with him, Robert gave me hope. He was honest & upfront with his thoughts on my case & the possible outcome. My case was difficult due to rare settlement details my former spouse & I agreed upon in our stimulated order that he later wanted the court to terminate.  Robert was so understanding & caring with me & extremely professional & respectful to all involved, including with opposing counsel. Robert's priority was to make sure my & my daughter's support order would be protected from any future modifications, no matter any change in circumstances. My mistake was not investing in Robert as my attorney sooner. “Don’t win the battle and lose the war.” ~ Best Advice

After 3.5 years battling in the courts I took my case to Antonyan Miranda. What my previous lawyer couldn't pull together after what seemed like endless court appearances and conferences with opposing counsel not to mention close to $100k in legal fees which amounted to absolutely nothing, Carlos Tavares was able to resolve in less than 6 months. Mr Tavares is tough. He's intelligent. He's prepared. He takes no s*it. He's responsible and trust worthy. He gave me my life back and operated with my best interest at every point along the way. Your life and your childrens' lives are in the hands of not just the court but the lawyer that represents you. Choose wisely. If you're just starting your case or if you have been wrapped up in a case that seems to be going no where give this company a call and request a consult. I can guarantee you it'll be one of the best decisions you ever make.

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.
