I was hit by a drunk driver several months ago and had serious injuries. I wouldn't have thought of contacting a lawyer until both insurance companies, mine and other driver's, asked for recorded interviews with me. I didn't want to take a chance on saying something that would jeopardize my claim. A friend referred me to Mike Keating. He and his associate, Deidre Ostrowski, represented me throughout the process of settling my claim. I received more money than I could ever have expected. But that is only part of the story. In working through the process, I had to deal with two auto insurers, my health insurance company, two health care providers, the ambulance company, the towing company and Medicare. Amy, staff member with the firm, took care of the paperwork and kept me well informed throughout the process. She really had to educate me, since this was my first experience with such a claim. She was incredibly patient, always pleasant and very efficient. Overall, I felt that Mike and Deidre represented me very effectively, and I recommend them and the firm to anyone in a similar situation.

I can't recommend Liz Hart enough. When you've been in an accident, the last thing you want/need is to be dealing with insurance, and Liz was such a champion, helper, and guide. She is so knowledgeable, tough, kind, communicative, and skilled at what she does. The peace I felt from knowing she was on top of things was invaluable.

I met Karen when she represented several people in a minimum-wage/overtime case with a previous employer. Although the process took quite some time to resolve, Karen was honest, straightforward, and forthcoming throughout the process. But that's not the reason I'm taking time to write the review. Towards the end of the mitigation, it became obvious that Karen and her firm were not going to be making much money (if any) on our case, even if we "won." That's when she proved that not all lawyers are snakes. Karen made recommendations to each of the members of our case based on what would be best for us, even at the cost of her own financial gain. That's incredible, it really is. I ended up walking away with a settlement check that was more than I had anticipated and a new found faith in at least one lawyer. I mean, all lawyers have passed the bar, but how many can you trust? I can submit Karen as one of that number. If you're reading this review, save yourself the time of reading more and just hire her.

I would recommend the Law Office of Christopher A. German for your bankruptcy needs. He is honest and upfront with you. There are no surprises, and you know exactly what to expect. He's thorough and takes his time answering your questions and goes over everything with you before your meeting with the creditors. After my meeting I couldn't be prouder. The night before we went over everything and he answered any questions that I had. He made sure I was prepared and at ease for the meeting. However, that's not the only reason why I was proud that he was in my corner. I had witnessed a party go before me with their lawyer and I couldn't believe how unprepared she was and the lack of representation and pride she had in herself and in her client. Mr. German doesn't treat you like you're just another number to him. You're his client and he treats you as such. He communicates with you every step of the way and ensures that you are clear on what to expect. Mr. German was professional, prepared and represented me very well. Deciding to go through bankruptcy isn't always an easy decision and you feel embarrassed and judged but I didn't feel that way with Mr. German. I felt that I was in good hands with him and so should you when hiring a lawyer. Give him a call and you'll see what I mean. You won't regret it!

I am extremely satisfied with the results and grateful for his help.

Michael Zywicki: The Attorney You Can Trust With Your Life, A True Genius in Law, and a Fearless Advocate! I have worked with many professionals across various fields, but never in my life have I encountered someone as extraordinary as Michael Zywicki. To call him a genius in law feels like an understatement. From the moment he came on board, it became abundantly clear that this is someone operating at the highest level of legal expertise, combined with a compassion and dedication that are simply unmatched. Mike has a remarkable ability to break down even the most complex legal issues into understandable terms, making the entire process feel approachable and manageable. Patient beyond belief, he never made me feel rushed or insignificant, no matter how many questions I had or how complicated my concerns were. Every response was prompt, thorough, and reassuring, reflecting a depth of knowledge and experience that is truly rare. Mike is a force to be reckoned with in and out of the courtroom, he is relentless—an advocate and protector with an unparalleled drive to win. Whether it’s crafting a flawless legal strategy or passionately presenting the case before a judge, Mike embodies the word unstoppable. When you have him on your side, you know you have someone who will go to the mat for you, fight tooth and nail, and leave no stone unturned to achieve victory. What’s more, his extraordinary skill and determination come with a level of integrity and fairness that is almost unheard of. The pricing was reasonable, especially compared to other law firms, that I was honestly shocked by the value of the services I received. I expected to pay significantly more for the kind of dedication, brilliance, and results he delivered—but his commitment to accessibility and client care blows me away. I can say without hesitation that I would trust Michael Zywicki with my life. After working with him, I will never look to another attorney. Michael Zywicki is not just a lawyer; he is a true advocate, a protector, a warrior, and a friend who will fight tirelessly to ensure justice prevails. Michael Zywicki is without question the best there ever was. Fierce, brilliant, compassionate, and unstoppable, he is the gold standard of legal excellence. I will forever be grateful for the life-changing services I receive!

In a business often filled with deception and dishonesty, working with Michael was truly a breath of fresh air. From our very first conversation, Michael put us at ease with his knowledge and genuine approach. His honesty was evident in every interaction, and we never felt pressured or misled. Unlike many professionals in the legal industry who seem more focused on making money than serving their clients, Michael's integrity shone through, making us feel like we were in safe, trustworthy hands. Beyond his transparency, Michael’s depth of legal knowledge was clear. He guided us through complex legal matters with ease, explaining everything in a way that was easy to understand, helping us navigate challenges we would have struggled with on our own. What truly sets Michael apart is his empathy. Rather than just treating us like another case, he approached every interaction with care and compassion. It was clear that he was invested in not just the legal outcome but in our peace of mind. His ability to balance professionalism with a personal touch made all the difference, providing reassurance when we needed it most. This level of personal care is rare, and it’s what makes Michael stand out in a crowded and often ruthless industry. In short, if you’re looking for a lawyer who combines honesty, intelligence, expertise, and true empathy, we wholeheartedly recommend Michael. He’s not just a great lawyer—he’s someone you can truly trust and will be our family lawyer for life!

If you're currently reading this review in search of a lawyer, find yourself in comfort and ease and look no further. Because this man right here is hands down the most incredible, patient, knowledgeable, caring and Apex lawyer out there. Mike has been the glue that bonded our family closer together. I mean seriously without him and how hard he fights for his clients I wouldn't have my daughter today. In the past year that Mike has spent with me, He has listened to not just me but also my family and everyone of our frustrations, and laid any fear, panic or disturbance to rest. Mike has a strategic mind that will truly blow you away. He's incredibly honest and never tells you something he won't follow through with. He's a very easy person to talk to and I've spent so much time talking with him and about so many nessesary details of my case where he has financially helped me without nickle and dimeing me. hes genuinely a caring and compassionate person and fights for what he believes in and what you believe in. If Mike was on the food chain in a tank full of lawyers that were all "sharks", he would be the creature that would slowly approach and respectively everyone of those sharks would clear his way in fear of the Alpha. trusting him with this case for my daughter was by far the greatest choice I've ever made. Something so delicate and in need of attention and with accurate precision Mike handled my case flawlessly. His communication and Dedication to my every need, thought and feeling, Everything has been attended to. This man gave me the opportunity to show the world the father I can and will forever be. He fought for my rights and my family. How can I ever find words that could truly express how grateful I eternally feel. My God honest answer is trust this man with everything and do exactly what he tells you to do or advises you to do and you'll come out on top. Mike's isn't just a lawyer but a close friend who just so happens to know the law and is willing to use everything in his power to ensure success for your favorable outcome. Mike's humor is the perfect addition to every family and he's that guy that you get excited to talk to and talk about. Like yup that's my lawyer 😎 He went waaaaaaaaaay above and beyond countless times to help me resource and find facilities, contacted people and helped get things setup and made my life easy and breathable. Mike is the answered prayer from God, coming from that feeling when you're lost at sea and feel like your drowning. Mike is that guy that brings a row boat to rescue and says wait. Till you see the boat your about to be on as he rows you back to safety, letting you rest while he does all the hard work. My sister recommended Mike in my custody case because she had previously hired him for a case regarding her daughter years ago. Because of Mike and how hard he fights, I mean with every finite detail this guy is willing to examine and find specific law in, he helped my sister gain full custody of her daughter and split custody with mine. The little girl that Mike fought for years ago, now gets to babysit her cousin in which he also helped create that possibility for. Our family gets to be a family because of him. Mike Zywicki thank you for fighting for me and my opportunity to be a father. Thank you for fighting for my niece and for my sister to be her mother. Without you, we wouldn't be the family we are today. If every person had a heart like you, the world would be a much better place.

We had a case that was being handled by another firm and just before trial we were told that there was a conflict..... Thankfully we were referred to John Case and he took on our case though it was a tough situation pushed through all the obstacles and got a final resolution to a very emotional and stressful ordeal, from an injury sustained and no one would come forward even though there were plenty of witnesses, he and his investigators stayed diligent and sent the message that got this case resolved with the best results that could be had. we are very greatful to him for all his hard work!

Mike was beyond amazing to work with. He is an incredible attorney and we got a favorable outcome on my case. From our first phone call he listened to me and was very sympathetic for my situation. I had spoke with several lawyers prior and they were not as kind or compassionate as he is. This was my first time needing a lawyer. Mike helped make the entire process smooth and not intimidating. He is very good at his job and does it with ease. He is also very reasonably priced. I fully recommend Mike if you are in need of an attorney. I hope to not need a criminal defense attorney in the future but if I do, Mike will be the one I call and who I refer people to.

I worked with Fuicelli & Lee regarding a car accident that destroyed a rather special car I was driving and left me injured. I would advise anyone in the same situation to retain them as their work and responsiveness were exemplary. The team coordinates its efforts well and they have access to significant resources that not only make the process go smoother but also provide options in a situation that usually leaves a person with few. They also showed an incredible degree of integrity during my case, which I think others have help to corroborate with their many excellent reviews. Should the need arise for representation again, I won't even consider another firm.

I couldn’t recommend Matthew Durkin more. I was referred to him by a friend of mine. From my first meeting with Matthew, he was supportive, empathetic, and helpful. And as I began to work with him, I quickly realized how incredibly smart, thorough, and thoughtful he and his team were with their approach to my case. I had never needed to hire an attorney prior to this, so I didn’t know what to expect. I really appreciated that Matthew kept me informed every step of the way and made sure I understood exactly what he and his team were doing. I’m so grateful to have had an advocate like him behind me. Matthew Durkin is truly the best of the best. And if you’re looking for someone to be in your corner and fight for what’s right, I highly recommend him.

Charlie did a great job trying to defend my case. Although the DUI did not get dropped, he did get my careless driving dropped. DA was not budging on jail time. Danny stepped in at my last courtdate, and was able to get me IHD. On that, I was thankful. I feel I did get my $'s worth from this team. They really do try to get the best deal possible. I would say I would use them again. However I will not need their services in the future. As I will NEVER LET THIS HAPPEN TO ME AGAIN. Colorado has become tougher through the years for DUI. The cost alone with everything involved is not worth admitting to having a few drinks and refusing Breathalyzer or Blood tests! If you are ever in this situation, call these guys. They are not the cheapest, but also not the most expensive. It is worth having this team of lawyers by your side through this process.

Mr. Charlie Fife went above and beyond to protect me from the terrible decisions that I had made. He is a very knowledgeable, and respected attorney who looks at all angles to best represent his client. His communications are quick, thorough and respectful. I don't expect to have a need for this type of representation again, but for anyone who does, I highly recommend Mr. Fife.

I worked with Fuicelli & Lee regarding a car accident that destroyed a rather special car I was driving and left me injured. I would advise anyone in the same situation to retain them as their work and responsiveness were exemplary. The team coordinates its efforts well and they have access to significant resources that not only make the process go smoother but also provide options in a situation that usually leaves a person with few. They also showed an incredible degree of integrity during my case, which I think others have help to corroborate with their many excellent reviews. Should the need arise for representation again, I won't even consider another firm.

Mr. Casey helped me with a car accident in 2024. I was hit from the rear at about 30 mph by a pickup and ended up injured and with a totaled car. Mr. Casey stepped in as my shield against the risks and aggravation of dealing with the insurance company on my own. The entire process went much more smoothly because he was there to support me. Throughout the entire ordeal, Mr. Casey was responsive, warm, experienced, and never rushed. I called his firm as soon as I knew an injury was involved and was able to sign him as my representative the same day. He was usually available to pick up the phone right away and, if not, never failed to return my calls quickly. His experience was invaluable, too, because it saved me pointless effort bickering over issues for which my evidence didn't support an outcome in my favor. Yet, simultaneously, he pointed me toward issues I never would have known to pursue that helped to round out my total compensation and compensate for the weaker areas of my case. I was always honest with him and we turned out to be matched well in terms of integrity. He never ignored inconvenient facts of my case or coached me in any way to get me to fit the bill for a person with worse injuries than I truly had. I respect that kind of honesty. I will absolutely call him again should the need arise.

My case in the hands of a bad lawyer would have been a disaster. I found Michael on Avvo after reading all the great reviews. I knew my immigration case was complicated after one lawyer told me she could not in all honesty take it on, because she would be putting me in danger of deportation. The second lawyer just didn't seem capable at all. When i brought my case to Micheal, he carefully looked at everything i had, did amazing research and was able to reassure me that i might have a good chance to adjust my status. Without going in all the details, he did perform a "miracle" because i am sitting here with my green card! My husband and i are internally grateful to this amazing attorney. Keep doing great work Michael you are affecting people's lives more than you will ever know.

I can’t thank Andrew Ramos enough for his outstanding support after my two car accidents. Navigating the aftermath of these incidents was overwhelming, but Andrew made the process so much easier. He handled all my medical bills and kept me informed every step of the way, which really put my mind at ease during a stressful time. What impressed me most was his dedication to getting me a fair outcome, even when I was hit by an uninsured driver. Andrew worked tirelessly on my behalf and ultimately secured money back for me, which I didn't expect. His professionalism and commitment to his clients are truly commendable. I highly recommend Andrew Ramos at ASR Legal to anyone in need of legal assistance after an accident. He not only knows his stuff but also genuinely cares about his clients and their well-being.

One of our children was almost dead from drug and alcohol abuse and had criminal problems as well. Robert was a Godsend -- he responded immediately, was very knowledgeable about the issues and the people involved in the potential prosecution, and eased our minds with true expertise and human compassion. I have rarely met a more caring and wise attorney. We have had occasion to refer several people with such problems to Robert, and have received thanks and outstanding comments about Robert's abilities and results. I have seen him help many people with criminal or professional issues, including drug and alcohol issues, and would highly recommend him to anyone with a problem with criminal charges.

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.
