A few years ago he took my case that was up against a very powerful hospital. Mr. Finley did get justice for me. His office did keep me informed and I always felt I was in good hands. I would recommend Mr. Finley to any one who had been turned down by another attorney.

I was referred to Corey Foley, by another attorney and a family member. I lost my mother in January and inherited her property. Needless to say her lenders were not cooperating with my requests and turning an already stressful and devastating situation into a nightmare. From the moment I spoke with Corey, he put my mind at ease. During his representation, he was compassionate and thorough and took a huge burden off of my already full plate. I can't say enough great things about him and will continue to refer other people to him. Very grateful for his representation

Everyone in the office from the attorneys to the ancillary staff are stellar. I have always been recognized by name right when I walk in. (Only office to ever do so) There is absolutely no attitude, it's almost like visiting with a friend (and I do consider them friends after the way I have been treated.) Mr. Buntrock (and his assoc) are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I have used them for several areas of law, and will continue to, because of their outcomes, but also because they treat you with true compassion and concern. Recommend without reservation!

Nancy was a life saver when our lives got turned upside down in a ugly real estate battle with a mentally unstable, unethical, crazy woman and her family. I don’t know what we would’ve done if we didn’t have Nancy! We are so grateful to have had her on our side while we went through this terrible situation. It starts with my husband and I driving through our neighborhood in seeing the most adorable house with a “FOR SALE” sign in the front yard. We love it. We make an offer on it. They except it. We put our current house up for rent, we find a tenant she signs a lease agreement, she’s packing her bags getting ready to move in. We are about 2 1/2 weeks into the escrow process, we receive message from the sellers real estate agent that our seller has decided she doesn’t want to sell her house anymore. Yes, we know that real estate contract is a legally binding contract. Seems like she has to go through with it… Thing is, she simply will not cooperate now. Her mother gets involved calls our loan officer threatens him. The home appraiser needs access into the house, they won’t allow him access. They won’t reschedule. And they won’t give a reason for backing out. And we wanted to be agreeable, we’re reasonable people, but now we have nowhere to live we have already put our other house up for rent the only option for us was to hire an attorney. We end up hiring Nancy, and even though these people are crazy and unreasonable and become nasty she works it out! and we get our “dream house” after all.

Rick and his staff spent the time and effort needed to research and prepare for my case. His fees where well justified and he always had the clients interests in mind. Mr Shapiro and his staff made a very trying and difficult process much easier to go through. I would with out hesitation recommend Mr Shapiro to my closest family and friends as the best choice for a lawyer in the Phoenix area.

Lauren Garner protected me against assaults on a family trust by exploitative relatives and unscrupulous attorneys. She fought admirably and ethically for six years. It was long and arduous because the opposing, unscrupulous attorneys (one of whom has been reported to the bar multiple times) tied things up in the court with numerous expensive tricks, threats, and maneuverings-- all of which ultimately failed. She always maintained the highest standard of ethics and fought with intelligence. Eventually she was able to negotiate a settlement that was as fair to me as possible given the fraud perpetrated by the other side and bring an end to a battle that had been abusive of me and the memory of my father who had established the trust. Had she not been there for me, nothing would have been left of a trust established by my own father. She is sympathetic, well organized, knowledgeable. I can not speak too highly of her.

I can't say enough good things about Lauren Garner as an expert in probate law. My family came to her at a very emotional time to evaluate a very dramatic situation and the advice and counsel she provided in an initial consult brought both legal and emotional clarity and understanding of our situation. This helped us to resolve the issues and move on. I recommend her sound advice and counsel to anyone. I was very impressed with her integrity and her groundedness in dealing with very difficult emotional terrain concerning two deaths.

I’m guilty of what most are, a preconceived notion of how someone or something will be or turn out, before allowing a fair chance. In other words, I didn’t let the fat kid play quarterback...turns out he had a damn good arm. Jacob Fausette, in every way, shattered my perception of public defenders. Keep in mind, he also has a law firm with his brother, along with the grueling docket of cases handed charged to him by the state. Well, I assumed I would get little to nothing from Mr. Fausette, and could you, could me, could anyone really blame him. I don’t think so. Now, hear I am, telling you how WRONG I was. The outcome, in light of my legal circumstances, turned out better than I could have ever hoped, thanks to Mr. Fausette. He got a better outcome than perhaps spending thousands of dollars or hiring five different attorneys could’ve gotten me. He was persistent, he showed conviction and here I am praising him for his efforts. He negotiated tirelessly with the prosecutor, and would not just settle for an easy plea. He is sharp, straight to the point, and willing to actually listen to your side of things and fight for the outcome you hope for. He knows the law and is experienced working with many of the judges and state attorneys. Myself, along with many others who put themselves in the hands of attorneys who are also human and tired and overworked and work based on pay, are lucky and should be grateful to have a lawyer like Mr. Fausette. Is this a new standard that Mr. Fausette is creating? Probably not, however, it’s great to know that lawyers like Jacob Fausette are available to those who may not be able to fork out a few hundred bucks an hour for his or her attention or services. I can’t imagaine what paying Mr. Fausette would get you. Atticus Finch...well, certainly an ode. Thank you, Mr. Fausette, an ode to Atticus indeed.

I found myself on the wrong end of a lawsuit, which unfortunately in USA is all too common. It was completely baseless but when you are being sued you do have to respond to the suit or settle the suit. I was being sued for an exorbitant amount of money and on a rather tenuous, if not frivolous claim. In reality the basis of what I was being sued for would not have withstood a judgement even if the plaintiffs established jurisdiction, which they likely would not have had I chose to fight. The grounds of the settlement are confidential so I can only say that in some states the basis of the suit is actually thrown out by judges based on law and the plaintiffs are forced to pay attorney fees and a penalty for bringing such a suit. Unfortunately Arizona does not have these laws. As a result I was in a panic and just wanted out of the suit. I had previously hired a "blazing gun" type attorney who specialises in this type of law but he made matters worse. There was an offer of settlement but it involved large sums of money to be paid and I was not guilty of any wrongdoing so I was not willing to do that. I had contact with Brad Denton who was also amazing and Sterling handled my claim and to be honest I am so happy he did. Within weeks we had a settlement offer as soon as he replied to the lack of basis of the lawsuit. I would likely have won but been out a lot of money so when he had got the opposing counsel to simply see that they really did not have a winner they offered a settlement that had little impact on my life, no out of pocket expenses and it has now been dismissed. I did have to fall on my sword and do something I disagreed with morally but as it has no effect on my life the saying, "I'd rather be happy than right" comes to mind. I am thrilled with his ability to see through the facts of a claim and relay that to his opposing counsel and effectuate a settlement I otherwise do not think I would have got. I cannot say enough good things about Sterling. He is personable, approachable, knowledgable, funny, and talented as a lawyer. What he did my "blazing gun" lawyer who allegedly specialised in this type of law was unable to do. I highly recommend him as a lawyer and his firm is great, they give their time and do not just give you time you are paying for but had contact both on an amicable (human) basis, as well as great legal communication.

Scott Bennett was an excellent choice of an attorney for my case. I was faced with a life changing event that I did not even understand was an offense. He was extremely thorough in his explanations of the offense, the potential charges I faced and what each one of them meant to me as a professional and a person. Scott demonstrated knowledge of the legal system and the compassion of a human being. Scott worked diligently on the case to minimize the effect it would have on my life. He was able to assist me with lowering the offense from three felony charges to one misdemeanor. Along the way, he lessoned my anxiety, but kept me informed each step of the way of the potential results. He made suggestions to me that increased my chances for a lower sentence and reached out to my friends and family to obtain additional information that would be helpful. I believe that he was able to assist me in obtaining the best outcome possible. Scott was attentive to my needs and his responses were prompt and knowledgable. I would recommend Scott Bennett for any case you might have.

When I first went to Scott over a stressful contractor remodel job that ran way over the estimate. The contractor was suing me. Scott calmed down my fears over the legal process. Whenever I needed to talk to him he was there. He always responded back to emails and text messages quickly. He has a quiet, calm personality, but don't let that fool you. If you need a trial attorney he is an excellent negotiator with a solid ethical code. You can expect because of his ethical code that you will not be over billed for his time. Scott was able to settle my case without it going to court. It was no surprise to me that he made partner as quickly as he did at his firm. I will forever be grateful to Scott!

Brian represented us as Receiver in a very contentious litigation where we were appointed to oversee a business undergoing a dispute between family members. He was able to effectively manage the relationship with both Plaintiffs and Defendants while allowing the Receiver to operate the business until a resolution would be reached. His advice was invaluable during a very difficult process.

Brian worked tirelessly to obtain title on an automobile purchased out-of-state from an entity that went bankrupt shortly after the transaction. Brian located the entity that assumed control of the bankrupt entity's assets, negotiated transfer of the title, and ensured the title was timely delivered. Throughout the entire process, Brian kept me informed of developments. I could not be happier with the results or the entire process.

This was the first time in my life that I had ever been in trouble. I was TERRIFIED! From the moment I spoke with Derek Oliverson I knew I did not need to worry. He took the time to listen to my case and then he explained what he was going to do. He kept me informed through the entire process. I could not have asked for a better outcome. I am so grateful to Derek and his entire team. They are the best and I highly recommend them to anyone that needs legal help.

What a Litigation Lawyer Can Do for You

A litigation lawyer specializes in representing individuals, businesses, or organizations involved in legal disputes. Whether you're the one filing a lawsuit or you're being sued, a litigation attorney will advocate on your behalf throughout the entire legal process. Their goal is to resolve disputes, either through negotiation, settlement, or trial. Litigation lawyers can help with a wide range of disputes, including contract disagreements, real estate issues, employment disputes, personal injury claims, and more.

Litigation lawyers provide strategic legal advice and manage all aspects of your case, from filing motions to representing you in court, ensuring that your rights are protected and that you have the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome.

When Should I Hire a Litigation Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a litigation lawyer if you're involved in a legal dispute that you cannot resolve on your own. Common situations include:

  • Breach of contract disputes: If a party to a contract fails to fulfill their obligations, a litigation lawyer can help you seek damages or enforce the agreement.
  • Business disputes: Litigation lawyers can represent you in cases of partnership disagreements, intellectual property disputes, or business fraud.
  • Employment disputes: If you're facing issues like wrongful termination, workplace discrimination, or wage disputes, a litigation lawyer can help resolve these matters through negotiation or court action.
  • Personal injury claims: If you've been injured due to someone else's negligence and are seeking compensation, a litigation attorney can help you pursue your case.
  • Real estate or property disputes: When there are conflicts over property ownership, boundary issues, or lease agreements, a litigation lawyer can assist in resolving the dispute.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process is beneficial, especially if a lawsuit seems imminent or you have already been served with legal documents.

What Does a Litigation Lawyer Do?

A litigation lawyer handles all aspects of your case, from the initial investigation to the trial and even the appeals process, if necessary. Their role includes:

  • Case assessment and investigation: Analyzing the facts of your case and advising whether it’s worth pursuing or defending.
  • Pleadings and motions: Drafting and filing documents to initiate or respond to a lawsuit, including complaints, motions to dismiss, and answers.
  • Discovery: Gathering evidence, including depositions, interrogatories, and document requests, to build your case.
  • Negotiations and settlement discussions: Attempting to resolve disputes through mediation, arbitration, or settlement talks before going to trial.
  • Trial representation: Presenting your case in court, examining witnesses, introducing evidence, and making legal arguments before a judge or jury.
  • Appeals: If necessary, filing appeals to challenge or defend the outcome of the trial.

Litigation lawyers are also skilled negotiators and often work to resolve disputes outside of court to save time, money, and stress for their clients.

How Are Litigation Lawyers Paid?

Litigation lawyers typically use a variety of fee structures depending on the type of case, the complexity of the legal matter, and the financial circumstances of the client. Common payment arrangements include:

  • Hourly rates: Many litigation attorneys charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and geographic location.
  • Flat fees: For specific, predictable legal tasks (such as filing a motion), lawyers may offer a flat fee.
  • Contingency fees: In personal injury or other cases where you seek damages, a lawyer may work on a contingency basis, taking a percentage of the settlement or award if you win.
  • Retainer: Some clients pay a retainer fee upfront to secure ongoing legal services. The lawyer then bills against this retainer as work is done.

The exact structure should be discussed in the initial consultation to ensure you understand how and when you'll be charged.

How Much Does a Litigation Lawyer Cost?

The cost of a litigation lawyer varies significantly depending on the nature of the dispute and the lawyer’s experience. Factors affecting the cost include:

  • The complexity of the case: More complex litigation involving extensive discovery, expert witnesses, or multi-party suits typically costs more.
  • Time spent: Litigation cases can be time-consuming, especially if they go to trial. The longer the case, the higher the legal fees.
  • Type of fee arrangement: Hourly rates can range from $200 to over $1,000 per hour, depending on the lawyer’s reputation and location. Contingency fees generally range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or award.
  • Stage of litigation: Cases that settle early in the process are often less expensive than those that proceed to trial or appeal.

It’s crucial to ask about cost estimates during your initial consultation to avoid surprises.

Top Questions to Ask a Litigation Lawyer

Before hiring a litigation lawyer, it's essential to ask key questions to ensure you're choosing the right representation:

  1. What is your experience with cases like mine?
    Ensure that the lawyer has experience handling your specific type of dispute, whether it's a contract issue, personal injury, or business matter.
  2. What are the potential outcomes of my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment of your case's strengths, weaknesses, and the likelihood of success.
  3. What is your fee structure?
    Clarify how you'll be charged, whether by the hour, a flat fee, or on a contingency basis.
  4. How long do you expect my case to take?
    While it's hard to predict, an experienced lawyer can give you a rough estimate based on similar cases.
  5. How often do you settle cases versus going to trial?
    Some lawyers are more inclined to settle, while others may be more experienced in the courtroom. It’s important to understand their strategy.
  6. What is your approach to resolving disputes?
    Some lawyers prefer aggressive litigation, while others focus on settlement or mediation. Choose one whose approach aligns with your goals.

How to Check the Credibility of a Litigation Lawyer

To verify a litigation lawyer’s credibility, consider the following steps:

  • Check bar association records: Ensure the lawyer is in good standing with the state bar and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Online reviews can provide insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and track record.
  • Look for litigation experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they have handled cases like yours and have a record of success.
  • Request references: Ask the lawyer to provide references from past clients who can speak to their effectiveness and approach.
  • Research their trial experience: If your case is likely to go to trial, ensure the lawyer has a history of courtroom success.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make your first consultation with a litigation lawyer productive, you should prepare the following:

  • A clear outline of the dispute: Provide a timeline and key details about the legal issue you're facing.
  • Any relevant documents: Bring contracts, emails, letters, or any other documentation that pertains to the case.
  • A list of key players: Provide the names of individuals or companies involved in the dispute.
  • Questions about fees and the litigation process: Make sure you understand how the lawyer plans to approach your case and how you will be charged.
  • Your goals and expectations: Be clear about what outcome you're hoping for, whether it's a settlement, compensation, or another resolution.

By coming prepared, you can ensure that your initial meeting with the lawyer is both efficient and insightful, giving you a better sense of how to proceed with your case.
