My brother was hit in the of his truck on duty. The defendant and the cop in charge of reporting the crime to the court have tried to intimidate and blame my brother to be at fault of the incident. We asked for Mr. Yeargan’s help and he fully represented my brother and won the case. My brother was not found guilty in anyways.
Mr. Yeargan is a welcoming professional attorney at law. He has years of experience in the field. He sure will also provide you with resources if needed.
Do I recommend Mr. Yeargan services? 1000% YES 👍🏾

We contacted PJI, Law to support our needs for a power of attorney and estate planning. We spoke with Jennifer Fox who provided a very thorough explanation of all the options that are available for seniors planning their Wills, POA, deed transfers, etc. I would recommend PJI, Law to others who are seeking the same types of service. Thanks - Jagdish & Kalpna.

Sarah Knapp and the Shounbach team were truly pivotal in guiding me through my divorce. Sarah is not only a highly skilled attorney but also incredibly kind, patient, and calm—qualities that make all the difference during such a difficult time. I always felt supported and knew she was advocating for my best interests every step of the way. Divorce is messy, emotional, and overwhelming, but having an attorney like Sarah in your corner brings a sense of clarity and peace. I can't recommend her enough.

I highly recommend Maureen Danker. Maureen is up front, honest and compassionate. From the beginning of my contentious custody case Maureen set my expectations. Maureen was very transparent in terms of cost. She was open and honest regarding the strength of my case to ensure I had the opportunity to weigh risk verses reward at every turn. When I made the decision to litigate my custody case, Maureen was all in. Her professionalism and knowledge in the court room was impeccable. I had several family members and friends in attendance, and they were in awe. My case was NOT a slam dunk. As we waited for the judge’s decision at the conclusion of trial, I was at peace knowing that no matter the outcome, Maureen left no stone unturned, nothing on the table and presented the best case possible. The judgment went 100% our way which is a true testament to Maureen’s superior litigation skills. My equitable distribution case was settled out of court and again, Maureen set my expectations and gave me the information I needed to make decisions. Her outstanding negotiation skills provided me a settlement that exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for an attorney who is honest, compassionate and not looking to spend your money unnecessarily, Maureen Danker is the attorney for you.

I reached out to Abrieno Law after my friend suffered a serious injury from a fallen tree at a state park. Even though I wasn’t a paying client, they were incredibly generous with their time and knowledge, offering valuable information over the phone. They went above and beyond, and offered to visit my friend in the hospital to discuss the matter personally. The customer service was outstanding, and I wholeheartedly recommend contacting them if you ever find yourself facing a legal issue.

Reached out to this firm on a whim because they seemed highly-rated, and don't regret the decision in the slightest. They responded back almost immediately to my inquiry, and that was the first of many good signs from them. I worked with Sarah, who was kind, compassionate, and personable before, during, and at the end of my case. Overall, I would highly recommend Robinson Law.

I am writing this heartfelt review to express my utmost gratitude to the exceptional team at the Thomas Law Group.
If you are seeking top-tier legal representation, look no further.
I regret not finding them sooner and initially entrusting my case to another firm, which left me in a difficult position, struggling to counter aggressive tactics from opposing counsel. By the time I turned to the Thomas Law Group, I was facing significant challenges and feeling completely hopeless.
Margeaux Thomas is truly a standout among her peers. Her expertise and professionalism were evident both in the courtroom and in her strategic approach outside of it. Elizabeth Horn meticulously analyzed every detail of my case with such precision that it felt as though she had personally experienced it. Kate Volandt, another invaluable member of the team, ensured I was consistently informed and updated throughout the process.
This team’s transparency and honesty stood out—they never overpromised or exaggerated, and their communication was always straightforward. They skillfully balanced offensive and defensive strategies to achieve the best possible outcome for my case.
Thanks to their dedication, expertise, and teamwork, they successfully resolved the complex situation I was facing.
I wholeheartedly and without hesitation recommend Margeaux Thomas and her incredible team at the Thomas Law Group for any legal matters. Their professionalism, integrity, and commitment are unparalleled.

Thomas Law is an exemplar firm that goes above and beyond to service the DC/Maryland/Virginia area. Before becoming a client, I was introduced to them through one of their many community service initiatives. The founder, D. Margeaux Thomas, was educating small businesses on the importance of partnership agreements. In turn, many budding businesses were able to protect their assets. Their integrity, dedication and legal expertise speaks for itself. Without reservation, Thomas Law receives the highest recommendation for their outstanding work.

I have known Margeaux Thomas for more than three years. She is very active in the local lawyer organizations and is a frequent guest speaker on podcasts and at conferences across the country. She is sought after as an accomplished litigator, and she focuses her practice on commercial landlord/tenant disputes, business partnership disputes, and contract disputes. While that is the type of law she practices, I know her as a consummate professional who is dedicated to her clients, highly ethical, and also a kind and caring person. I would have no hesitations in recommending Margeaux and the Thomas Law Firm to anyone involved in a contract dispute in Virginia.

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Attorney Michael May for representing me at the hearing held today at the Arlington County Courthouse. From the very first day I contacted him upon a recommendation from another attorney, he personally reached out to me and spared no effort in advising me on all possible actions I could take leading up to the hearing date. Moreover, he provided detailed explanations and probabilities for every possible scenario, allowing us to devise a strategy together to achieve the best possible outcome.
In addition, his professional knowledge, precision, and ability to confidently and effectively represent me in court were truly outstanding. I felt immense trust watching him engage with the officer who had stopped me, handling the situation respectfully yet confidently.
If you are looking for an attorney who will genuinely advocate for you and achieve the best possible outcome under the circumstances, I confidently recommend seeking advice and assistance from Attorney Michael May. Once again, I deeply appreciate your help, Mr. May.

Mr. Smith provided excellent legal counsel and representation. He took on my case relatively last minute given that my representation at the time had not been communicative. Mr. Smith was friendly, professional, and understanding. He has a level of knowledge on the inner workings of the Virginia and Fairfax County court system that are demonstrative of an extreme dedication to his profession and a high level of experience. Thank you very much to Mr. Smith and his team!

I had a mistameanir in virginia on my way home to Illinois, was not aware of the sudden change of speed limit, when i was presented with a mistameanir and a court date, of course i was devastated. I reached out to Miss Kimberly Phillips, and Esha, and i have to admit Esha was caring and professional with all the information i needed, and Miss Kimberly phillips took care of case at court and bought the mistameanir to a ticket violation. The fine was bought down to 250.00 and i did not have to return to virginia. I really do not think i will ho back after the scare, but i highly recommend Miss Kimberly and Esha, they know what they are doing, and truely took my case in there hands.
Thank You Miss Kimberly and Miss Esha from the Bostom of my heart. I appreciate you both.

We were referred to Michael Lau through the Fairfax County Bar Association and could not have been more satisfied with our experience. From the very first consultation, Michael was professional, thorough, and clear in explaining our legal options. He went above and beyond in researching the restoration shop we were suing, providing valuable insights that strengthened our case. Throughout the process, he demonstrated an exceptional level of dedication and expertise, always keeping us informed and guiding us with sound advice. His professionalism, combined with his deep knowledge, made a significant difference for us. We highly recommend Michael Lau for anyone seeking top-tier legal representation. We ended up winning our case and getting the justice we wanted.

I cannot thank Mr. Hicks enough for the incredible support and expertise he provided during the most difficult time of my life. I was facing a false sexual assault accusation that left me feeling trapped with no way out. I was at risk of deportation and losing my job, and the stress was unbearable for months. At one point, I even felt hopeless and suicidal.
Mr. Hicks not only brought his extensive knowledge and skill to my case, but he also treated me like family. He truly cared about my well-being, and his unwavering support gave me the strength to keep going. Through his hard work and dedication, he was able to get my case dismissed and turn my life around.
If you are looking for a lawyer who will fight for you with compassion and unmatched expertise, I highly recommend Mr. Hicks. He is a lifesaver, and I will forever be grateful for everything he has done for me.

Mr. Trichilo went above and beyond to help my husband and myself with his very challenging case. When we first contacted Mr. Trichilo my husbands case had been denied by the insurance company and he was able to have a Full Commission reverse the ruling. Because of that My husband received a substantial lump sum payment and MSA approved annuity to make sure all future medical needs are taken care of. Because of my husbands very serious injuries I was the main contact with Mr. Trichilo and He helped me so very much and made me feel like everything would be ok and he told me to take care of myself and my husband and he would take care of everything else. We are very thankful for everything he did for us!

This was our first case and involvement with any attorney and we couldn’t be more pleased with our overall experience and outcome.
We called and interviewed multiple attorneys when first deciding to hire a lawyer. Mr. Trichilo was the only one that told us what to expect and sent us the needed forms and engagement letter. He even followed up and asked if he could answer any questions.
Mr. Trichilo appears to be a gentle and soft spoken man when you first meet him. When it came time to go toe-to-toe with the big insurance company, we felt that we had the bigger dog in the fight! He was professional, organized and thorough in every aspect of our Workers Comp case. He managed our expectations and in the end we received more than we ever expected.
If you need an attorney, look no further and give Benjamin Trichilo a call.

Mr. Brian Drummond came highly recommended to my family by a trusted friend, and we now know why. Mr. Drummond is an outstanding lawyer and human. He supported our family when both of my sons were dealing with 2 different court issues in 2 different counties at the same time.
He quickly responded to my many messages and questions and continually went above and beyond to support my boys in their different situations! Both court issues ended with the best outcome possible thanks to his knowledge and fantastic pre-court advice.
He treats his clients with respect, humor, and empathy.
I highly recommend Mr. Drummond if you need a lawyer.

The attorneys and staff of The Law Offices of Patrick N. Anderson and Associates are very professional and exceptional to work with. I worked specifically with Mr. Mejia, and I highly recommend him.
For those of you unfamiliar with the legal system, and/or reading google reviews in search of a good attorney, perhaps the most critical thing you should know is that a good attorney is not solely defined by his/her knowledge of the law. In the legal system, there are various intricacies in the courts that may play a larger role than you realize in determining an outcome. If you want the best possible outcome, you need an attorney with firsthand experience in that realm, who can help you navigate these nuances.
Therefore, it is on both his knowledge of the law, and his experience with the court circuits in Northern Virginia, that I commend and endorse the services Mr. Mejia can provide for you.

David is an exceptional lawyer who is honest, diligent and knows the law explicitly. He displayed compassion, integrity and resilience when handling my cases. David is not shy to suggest on best practices and past case rullings and he made sure I understand all my available options.

Dave Bateman represented me in a partition matter.
Dave was an expert in setting my expectations and providing insights on the most likely outcomes. My questions were responded to quickly and thoroughly using language and examples I could understand. While legal representation has its price, I walked away from each conversation/email knowing the path forward and feeling that I was getting the best representation and return on my investment.
As a result of his strategic thinking and expertise, the court made a determination that was extremely favorable.
Having observed Dave Bateman in deposition and trial settings, there is nobody I would rather work with. He is professional, quick on his feet, and used all available resources to secure my win.

5 Big Stars for Attorney David E. Bateman
I needed legal representation when an unlicensed contractor was attempting to extort $25,000 from me for work he did not perform on a construction project in Arlington VA. I now realize the advantage in using a good law firm to handle disputes for my company. I hired David E Bateman from Rathbun/ Bateman in Fairfax VA.
He was recommended to me by another happy client he had represented.
Mr. Bateman did a phenomenal job. I have been in real estate/ construction for 38 years. Mr Bateman’s knowledge about real estate, contracts and construction astonished me in the courtroom He exhibited terrific listening skills and responded with eloquent and concrete answers that obviously impressed the Judge because he threw the case out and awarded me all legal fees.
I highly recommend Dave Bateman. He is the best! He will work hard for you and win your case!!
Thank you

It's hard to believe that a month ago I didn't even know Robert Pope. In the past few weeks, he has been the calm in a stormy sea. His manner has always been professional. His accessibility and competence have been reassuring during a most stressful time.
Robert is a good listener, and an even better writer. His interactions with other members of the Bar are collegial and respectful, and I believe all of these qualities enabled us to resolve our contract dispute without need of litigation.
I highly recommend Robert to any person seeking an honest, hard working attorney who possesses the highest level of intelligence and integrity. If a case can be settled, saving all concerned time and money, Robert will make it happen.

I contacted Mr Gross's office to help me review a lease contract and was pleased to find out that he answered the phone and helped me. He was very patient and answered all of my questions. He is very understanding of my needs and was happy to help. I decided to hire him. He was very quick to respond to later emails and questions and was able to help me review the lease to my satisfaction. I would recommend him to anyone looking to do the same thing. Thanks ED

Words cannot describe the gratitude that my wife and I feel for Mr. Gross' exceptional representation. We had a highly complex case against a very able adversary. Mr. Gross and his firm represented us in the most exemplary fashion. The case was handled quickly, professionally, with great decency and immense legal talent.
I am a Professor of Surgery and a Thoracic Surgeon. In my profession precision and expert talent is the difference between life and death. I pride myself in my highly personal and precision-driven approach to my patients. I must say that I have been humbled by what I have seen in Mr. Gross.
I will return to Mr. Gross and his firm for all my legal needs in the future. If you want to win your case I cannot recommend any one else.

When I first met Ed Gross I was General Counsel for a technology company located in Northern Virginia, and we were soon retaining his services for business matters requiring outside counsel services. I was so impressed with Ed that I have been working with him ever since to handle both my personal and corporate legal matters. Highly recommended for anyone looking for that rare combination of superior legal skill and a real personal touch.

Mr. Romanick and his associates work smartly and efficiently. We hired him for a collection matter that evolved into an adversary proceeding in a chapter 7 bankruptcy. These cases can be quite complicated and expensive. He always had a complete understanding of the complexities of our business. He was able to spend a minimal amount of time and still turn out quality pleadings. He allowed us to have substantial input in the way the case was handled. We were pleased with the manner in which the account was handled and would not hesitate to hire Mr. Romanick and his firm again.

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:
-
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. -
What are the potential outcomes of my case?
Ask for an honest assessment of your case's strengths, weaknesses, and the likelihood of success. -
What is your fee structure?
Clarify how you'll be charged, whether by the hour, a flat fee, or on a contingency basis. -
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. -
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. -
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.
