I am incredibly grateful for the outstanding support I received from Jonah Anderson of Makkabi Law Group, in my personal injury case. From our very first meeting, it was clear that I was in capable hands. Mr. Anderson took the time to listen to my concerns, thoroughly explained the legal process, and outlined the steps we would take together. What truly set Mr. Anderson apart was his compassion and dedication. He genuinely cared about my well-being and worked tirelessly to ensure that I received not just fair compensation, but the support I needed during a challenging time. I truly appreciate the dedication and effort Mr. Anderson put into fight on my behalf. I highly recommend Jonah Anderson as he is the best attorney ever!

I love Makkabi Law Group for one reason and one reason only. For the first time I feel heard. Every other lawyer I spoke to gave me the vibe that I was just a number and they only wanted my money. But not here. From the first time I spoke to Jonah I knew I was being taken care of as if I was a family member. Thank you Jonah for everything.

Mr. Vojdani is a spectacular lawyer and an amazing human being. He managed to help us out with an urgent and an unexpected situation with a property. He took the time to talk to me over the phone and I was able to meet with him the next morning. I chose to work with him after contacting 12 other real-estate attorneys and realizing that they have no clue how to help. He is prompt, efficient, caring and honest. It's very rare to find an honest attorney nowadays but he is truly one of a kind and a true gem. He resolved my multiple issues in a very creative and time efficient manner. I'm truly grateful that I found him and I will definitely work with him again if I need help. I highly recommend him!

Finding Joni was a God send! Literally!! I heard her commercial on the radio and wrote her phone number down. A year later, when I decided I needed a lawyer, I couldn’t find her number so I prayed about it. The next day I got in my car driving home from work and her commercial came on the radio! I pulled over in my car and immediately called her and was able to speak with her. I made my appointment and met this wonderful, intelligent, compassionate woman who understood what I was going through, and what I needed to do. Joni not only helped me through the most desperate time in my life, but also became my friend. She was always there for me answering any of my questions, sometimes in the wee hours of the morning. I would describe Joni as a wolf in sheep’s clothing. She looks so sweet but she is fierce and gets the job done!! She knows how to handle opposing lawyers, her knowledge of judges and the court system is remarkable. She lead me away from a certain court that was convenient and close to me to make sure I got the best judge. She was ALWAYS PREPARED! She fought for me and the result was beyond what I had ever imagined. Because of Joni, I am financially secure and have a new career, home and peace of mind. I would recommend Joni to anyone who is going through a painful situation, not only for her knowledge of the law but…. She is compassionate and understanding ♥️

If you’re facing a divorce with someone you believe may go to any lengths to unjustly destroy you in court, take everything from you, and/or do you feel the cards are stacked against you for any reason? Then Danielle Salice is who you want going to war for you, because she will give everything, she has into protecting you and getting you justice. When I first met Ms. Salice, I was terrified, I felt so alone, afraid of what the future was going to hold. I was in a bad marriage, had recently been diagnosed with a health condition, and was in the beginning phases of my divorce. Without sharing too much detail, I shared a bit of my story with an online platform of a group of moms seeking advice. Ms. Salice was one of the fellow moms who reached out to me to offer support, but in no way did she appear to be seeking a client, but rather, she was simply being kind and compassionate. The mere fact that she was a Family Law Attorney didn’t even come into play until much later. When it became clear that I needed a lawyer, I didn’t even know she could represent me in my county, but on one of the scariest days of my life, I reached out to Ms. Salice in a panic unsure of what to do. I cried telling her how much I wish she was able to represent me in my county, and that was the moment I she notified me that she could. From that point on, Ms. Salice immediately went to battle for me, and continues to fight to protect me, and my child. At the beginning of the process, I was so scared that I would lose everything, including my child all because my ex has money, and I was left with nothing, and no way to work with my health. Not only has Ms. Salice fought every battle for me as if she were fighting it for herself and her own family, but she also held my hand through the whole process. She calmed me down and let me cry night after night as I would be falling to pieces over the pain caused by my divorce. I thought I stood no chance until Ms. Salice came into the picture. Since she has joined my case, not only has she secured custody for me, but she has blocked my ex and his lawyer’s every attempt to take advantage of me, push me around, or bully me into submission. I have cried several times in gratitude thanking Ms. Salice for all the work that she has done and continues to do. Thank you, Danielle, for fighting so hard for me, for protecting me, for making sure I don’t get taken advantage of just because I am scared, or don’t have as much as my ex does. Thank you, Danielle, for stopping them from taking my baby for unjust reasons just to get out of paying child support. Thank you for not letting them use the system to exert power and control over me, and thank you for always being there to support me emotionally through this process as well!

I got emotional when I was explaining things to her and she understood. She even allowed my sister to call her so she could also explain to my sister what needed to be done. I hope you get all the blessing in life, Danielle...thank you!

I was in a bad marriage, had recently been diagnosed with a health condition, and was in the beginning phases of my divorce. Without sharing too much detail, I shared a bit of my story with an online platform of a group of moms seeking advice. Ms. Salice was one of the fellow moms who reached out to me to offer support, but in no way did she appear to be seeking a client, but rather, she was simply being kind and compassionate. The mere fact that she was a Family Law Attorney didn’t even come into play until much later. When it became clear that I needed a lawyer, I didn’t even know she could represent me in my county, but on one of the scariest days of my life, I reached out to Ms. Salice in a panic unsure of what to do. I cried telling her how much I wish she was able to represent me in my county, and that was the moment I she notified me that she could. From that point on, Ms. Salice immediately went to battle for me, and continues to fight to protect me, and my child. At the beginning of the process, I was so scared that I would lose everything, including my child all because my ex has money, and I was left with nothing, and no way to work with my health. Not only has Ms. Salice fought every battle for me as if she were fighting it for herself and her own family, but she also held my hand through the whole process. She calmed me down and let me cry night after night as I would be falling to pieces over the pain caused by my divorce. I thought I stood no chance until Ms. Salice came into the picture. Since she has joined my case, not only has she secured custody for me, but she has blocked my ex and his lawyer’s every attempt to take advantage of me, push me around, or bully me into submission. I have cried several times in gratitude thanking Ms. Salice for all the work that she has done and continues to do. Thank you, Danielle, for fighting so hard for me, for protecting me, for making sure I don’t get taken advantage of just because I am scared, or don’t have as much as my ex does. Thank you, Danielle, for stopping them from taking my baby for unjust reasons just to get out of paying child support. Thank you for not letting them use the system to exert power and control over me, and thank you for always being there to support me emotionally through this process as well!

I see what everyone is talking about! Danielle is a breath of fresh air, all it took was 30 minutes for her to break down what needed to be done with my child support case. I got emotional when I was explaining things to her and she understood. She even allowed my sister to call her so she could also explain to my sister what needed to be done. I hope you get all the blessing in life, Danielle...thank you!

When we were looking for a lawyer for our start up, there were a lot of them out there that just didn't really responded to us at all, some were charging way too much for the job we want. Many did not even give us their time. Aaron responded to us in a timely manner and answered all our questions as well, he is patient and accommodating, he even researched about us and our business model. The feeling we got from him is that he really cares about our business and not only about $$$ Thanks Aaron, looking forward to working with you more.

Mr. Shechet is one of the few lawyers I have worked with who did not leave me with a bad taste in my mouth. He is attentive (generally responding to emails within a few hours as opposed to the weeks I have waited with other attorneys), informed and approachable. He was honest with me and never hesitated to tell me when he needed to do more research. He explained everything in terms I could easily follow without being condescending. I am pleased with the contracts and look forward to working with him again (as long as it's not because I'm being sued).

Following a distressing car accident, I sought the expertise of Carpenter and Zuckerman, grappling with the aftermath of sustaining multiple injuries and the total loss of my vehicle due to another driver's blatant disregard for a red light. Amid my upheaval, I remembered a friend's characterization of Paul Zuckerman as a "Super Tough, yet approachable figure with a generous heart and a distinctive New York Attitude." Their esteemed reputation, I discovered, is indeed well-earned. In the aftermath of a serious accident, one needs more than mere legal representation; one requires a steadfast advocate who not only tirelessly champions your cause but also deeply values your well-being. From the moment I stepped into their office, the sense of being in capable hands was immediate. Despite the firm's acclaim and their distinction as "Super Lawyers," Paul Zuckerman personally offered his guidance, radiating confidence and solace. Right from our initial conversation, I was thoroughly convinced of Carpenter and Zuckerman's commitment to securing the comprehensive compensation I rightfully deserved. Paul's assurance of having a committed team in my corner was exemplified not just in words but in action, particularly by Gabriela, who emerged as an unwavering pillar of support; Ivy Callahan, the Department Director of the Lien Department, who was exceptional in swiftly finding an alternative MRI center, securing an appointment in real time, and seamlessly managing the billing and scheduling details; and Anastasiya, the lien negotiator, who worked tirelessly to ensure my medical bills were negotiated down to the bare minimum. The results of her efforts were beyond my expectations, showcasing the depth of commitment and skill within the team. As my recovery and the legal challenge progressed, Zuckerman and Carpenter assertively confronted the defendant's insurance company, striving for the highest compensation possible. Despite their initial insufficient offer, Paul Zuckerman's steadfast confidence instilled patience in me. His belief in the firm's expertise imbued me with profound trust. Carpenter and Zuckerman's formidable prowess was unmistakably demonstrated, compelling the insurance company to acknowledge their disadvantage against such a tenacious legal force. In a matter of weeks, they conceded to the demanded settlement amount, a testament to the firm's vigorous advocacy recognized by all. Under Paul Zuckerman's leadership, Carpenter and Zuckerman operate with unmatched precision and resolve, mirroring a well-coordinated force dedicated to securing justice for their clients, akin to a seasoned general leading a disciplined infantry into battle. Reflecting on my journey with Carpenter and Zuckerman, it evokes the pinnacle of service excellence, Patrick Mahomes' indomitable spirit, Einstein's intellectual dominance, and the fierce determination of a charging bull. I am profoundly grateful to the entire team, including Anastasiya and Ivy Callahan, for transforming what could have been an overwhelming ordeal into a seamless journey of support and resolution. Moreover, even after securing my settlement, the firm maintained frequent updates, ensuring clarity on the progress of my disbursement with comprehensive messages that eliminated any doubt about the status of my case. My heartfelt appreciation extends to Carpenter and Zuckerman for their exceptional service, unwavering dedication, and the continuous, transparent communication that guided me through this journey.

E&L is a great law firm that employs great individuals like Michael Becerra. Michael truly cared about not only my case and the outcome, but also shared a genuine interest in my personal life and how it was being affected by it as well. Michael even opened up and shared a little of his personal life with me, and I'll tell you what, that really made me feel like more than just a client, not just "ok here's your update goodbye" Michael settled my case for a fair amount and in a timely manner and answered any and all questions I had. I would be a fool not to recommend E&L law firm especially since they have people like Michael Becerra who fight for you tooth and nail! Thx again Michael, you're the best!

Deborah was an absolute disaster to work with. She was busy on two trials and said as much and apologized when I told her that I could never get a hold of her and she never responded to calls. She charged me $14,000 for one month of horrible work product. She has line items like text message .75 hours. She said she was giving me a discounted rate which should’ve been a red flag but then just was merciless on that hourly. More importantly, when she was preparing my response, I would tell her the details, and she would write it up with blatant lies that I could never defend in court. I had to rewrite everything she did. I am in shock. As I was calling around to replace her numerous lawyers had things to say about her that I wish I knew before I hired her. Buyer beware.

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.
