Jim was referred to me by a friend during a very difficult time in my life. Over the next 3 months, Jim was always just a phone call away, either answered me right away or called me back within 5 minutes. During the process, he helped me understand the laws, provided sound advice on all of my issues. Most importantly, he got shi7 done in a timely fashion and got it done correctly. He's not one of those lawyers interested in stringing you along, creating drama, or digging his heels in on immaterial items just to rack up legal fees - quite the contrary he always looked out for my best interest in the most rational way. But, when needed he brought out the big guns and fought for me and my rights. In addition, throughout it all he kept his humor (keeping me sane) and was very empathetic to my situation. I will use Jim going forward and would recommend him no questions asked to any of my friends who need a lawyer to look out for them. Thank you Jim!

He listened to me and was able to allay my concerns as we went through the legal process. He guided me on what was best for my case and his advice led to a positive outcome. I would definitely hire him again and highly recommend him.

I was on the receiving end of a car wreck back in 2019. Two days later I could hardly walk. I knew I was in trouble physically so I reported my work. At that point it was a worker comp situating. After several doctors appointments and physical therapy sessions I decided to do some homework for an attorney. Jim was recommended to me by my employer’s attorney. I trust my employer to send me to the best attorney. They did. I reached out to Jim and he took my case. He told me on the front end that this case would be difficult due to the reputation of this particular insurance company. He is great at communicating and keeping me in the loop. He’s not afraid to fight in court if it would have come to that. It didn’t because Jim had gathered enough ammunition that they knew they had to settle. I highly recommend Jim. He’s a great person, attorney and friend.

I can’t begin to express how grateful I am that Heather Piper represented me during my divorce. The amount of detail and care she took with my case was phenomenal. She was always available if I had a question or concern and made sure to fully explain the process and what I should expect. I could go on and on, but I’ll finish by saying if you need a family law attorney that is responsive and really cares about their clients then Piper Law is where u need to be.

I retained Ms. Piper's services midway through divorce proceedings. During my initial consultation, Ms. Piper truly listened to my concerns & priorities. Not once did I feel like a number when dealing with Ms. Piper. Each conversation left me with a feeling of confidence that I was in the most competent representation imaginable.
Ms. Piper & her team developed a strategy that lead to an outcome that I was previously told would be impossible. Parenting time was the utmost importance to me & when we finally put pen to paper, I had more parenting time than what would have been granted in trial.
Ms. Piper respected my time & worked efficiently to provide an amazing outcome while avoiding unnecessary billable hours. I have and will continue to recommend her services to anyone going through the trying times that are divorce proceedings.

She handled everything with great care and professionalism, walking me through the process with ease of mind. Words cannot describe my level of satisfaction. Thanks so much!!!!

From our first introductory meeting to receiving that final decree, Mrs Redmon provided sound advice. Her swift action and a tireless effort to represent my truth turned a potentially negative outcome in a multi-layered complex divorce to a positive result. Honest and transparent communication at the front-end, her strategy never wavered, but rather was supported by fact, law and a fair defense.

I highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone needing legal help. I had gotten into a situation with a family member so a friend of mine told me to call Elizabeth Russell. I Did and I am so glad I did. Elizabeth worked passionately in my case and got everything dropped. She treats her clients with respect and makes them feel everything is going to be okay. She calmed my nerves and did a great job to boot. Elizabeth is dedicated to her clients in every way. She goes far above what she has to do and does it with kindness and respect. Elizabeth demonstrated her willingness to go to any length to make sure justice was served in my case. I would recommend her to anyone I know needing legal help. She is a Class Act.

I highly recommend Liz to those seeking a legal advocate. I was contacted by Liz to assist her in finding substance abuse treatment for one of her client. Liz worked tirelessly and passionately in support of her client. Late night calls, trips to the jail and courthouse all in an effort to help her client get the help he needed. While her client sought her for help with a legal problem in the end, due to Liz's efforts, he received what could be life-changing/life-saving help with his addiction.
What Liz demonstrated to me is that she is willing to go to any length to help...legal and otherwise.

Tom Boylan did an amazing job dealing with Evernest our rental agency for a home in Franklin. They simply bullied renters into having no reasonable recourse but to either accept their approach or seek an Attorney. We did the latter. We ended up paying Tom around $2K for what was services over a few months dealing with them. In total, we'd have lost about $8K had we not had him on our side. It was well worth it, and also really wonderful to not allow this rental agency to simply do whatever they want without regard to meeting their obligations. Tom was accessible, responsive, and spot on with his advice. Will use him again in the event we are unfortunate enough to need an Attorney in the future!

We hired Nichole Dusche for my nephew in Williamson County,, she was absolutely amazing from start to finish! If I could give her 1000 stars, I would without hesitation! She was very knowledgeable and she was reachable every time we had questions about the case. She definitely knows her way around the courtroom! Dealing with a loved one being incarcerated is always tough, but she gave us hope and she most definitely delivered! I recommend her to anyone in need and I’m very grateful that we chose her 10/10!!

I always felt confident that I was in good hands. Moreover, their professionalism was evident in every interaction. They were always prompt, courteous, and transparent, making what could have been a stressful process much more manageable.

I strongly recommend Jill Hudson and Lizzy Wilson of Crosier Hudson Family Law. My case had some unique issues and was high stakes for me. Highly effective counsel and thorough.

Todd Sandahl handled my divorce with the utmost of respect and professionalism, and has a knack for communicating his legal guidance in a way that was easy for me to understand, given the high emotions of a marriage dissolving. His CPA background proved invaluable in terms of protecting my assets, as I was the breadwinner in the marriage. His communication was always quick and thorough, and his follow up was impeccable. I highly recommend Todd Sandahl for a divorce attorney....I am confident that my divorce ended with me getting an outstanding settlement given our financial situation.

The first time I contacted Mr. Barney, it was to assist my wife and me with creating wills and reviewing a lease contract. He was extremely professional, and we were happy with the service we received. So, when my brother told me he was being sued by a major corporation, we recommended Mr. Barney for his defense. Mr. Barney exceeded our expectations with the case. He was extremely knowledgeable and committed to the cause. We felt like we had a true partner who cared about us and about justice. He worked long hours due to international conference calls occurring in different time zones and traveled out of state to attend the court hearings, but he never missed one opportunity to defend us. My family could not have been happier with the service we received. I would highly recommend Mr. Barney for any legal matter and for that reason I have given him a 5 star rating.

What an amazing experience! Megan was absolutely wonderful!!! Can not express enough how thankful I am for her. I've had dealings with Megan for over two years now and I can tell you now, some of these negative reviews are either, flat out lies, or Google claims old reviews from years ago when she had partners as "recently ". There are no men operating out of this office as some of these reviews claim. It's just Megan, her paralegal, and a large friendly dog. Megan is a rare gem in the legal community. A God fearing, horse riding, pistol packing, dog loving, southern belle, who will look you in the eye and speak the honest truth. And she will do it for less of the cost than any other attorney in Williamson County.

Whatever you do, do not use Laurie Parker to do a Trust. If you do, this is what you can expect. You will pay a large retainer fee before anything is ever initiated (mine was $3000). Then you will be in a several month process with you attempting repeatedly to get Laurie to return your calls & emails. You will finally have to contact her staff to ever get her to follow up with you. There will be so much time elapsed between discussions that Laurie can't even remember what you discussed previously. She will claim that she is too busy and overwhelmed, she will lie & tell you that she sent you emails when she doesn't & that they are having server problems is why she didn't respond to your emails. By the time we got done we had so little confidence in the final product that we just went to a new attorney and basically got absolutely nothing but a great deal of frustration and disappointment from the experience with Laurie … $3000 completely down the drain! Do yourself a favor & find someone competent who will do a Trust in a couple weeks & at a third of the cost of Laurie. She way over complicates the process and honestly does not know what she is doing. If you could give a -0- Star review, that is what she would get from my wife & I.

I don't normally like to rate or give reviews, but I feel I must warn others. This woman should find a new career or retire. She clearly should not be a lawyer. I don't even get how she has been able to work in that nice Franklin law office with her lack of skills and confidence this long? When she was my lawyer there was a lack of focus and no care involved. My case was completely mismanaged, what a complete and utter nightmare this experience was. She took months to even return a call or email, only to respond with information I already had and excuses. I would ask her a question and she would say that she seemed to have a lack of know-how. My simple probate case dragged on and on when it should have been wrapped up so much sooner. This is done on purpose to give you fatigue so that you finally give up. My simple probate case took years and years. I recently spoke to other lawyers about it and they were appalled at the time frame of it all. I would NEVER recommend this women or the firm she represents. I heard they take their sweet time with all these cases as to drain you financially over time. Sorry Laurie A Parker, you asked for this review so here it is.

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.
