I have used Geoff Hawkins and his firm on a number of occasions for a number of different legal actions. He always explains the process and potential outcomes with all of my cases and keeps me informed as things transpired. He is the only attorney I recommend to all my friends and family as I know he is a good guy and does right by his clients...

I usually never write reviews but after all the wonderful help and support that I received at the Law Offices of Hawkins -Melendrez, I felt that I needed to share my experience with others.
I highly recommend anyone in need of an attorney to contact Geoffrey Hawkins. This is the second time that I needed representation from an attorney and quite frankly I was nervous because I had a horrible experience with my first attorney. I didn't know what to expect when I began searching for another attorneys but after contacting Mr. Hawkins I felt comfortable right from the beginning. He's a very knowledgeable,cordial and experienced attorney. he guided me from the first email we exchaged and then answered all my questions and concerns when we met in person. he explained every step of the way and what to expect during the process. Geoffrey Hawkins definitely exceeded my expectations in regards to settling my case. I would highly recommend Geoffrey Hawkins and best of all, the fees are as reasonable as you'll find!

Cynthia handled a difficult, multi-party case with a tremendous amount of diligence, professionalism, knowledge, and patience. Her efforts resulted in a positive outcome for her clients, and it was a pleasure to work with her. I'd recommend Cynthia highly.

Cynthia consistently approached our very complex bankruptcy case calmly and with a level head. With more than a dozen defendants (individuals and entities) and over 100 allegations in multiple actions leveled by an very aggressive creditors committee, Cynthia handled our case professionally at all times. This case was often frustrating to me, and Cynthia was patient in hearing my gripes and providing counsel within the bounds defined by the law. I learned so much from my involvement in this action, some from observation but much of it from discussions with Cynthia.
Bottom line for any review is "would you work with this person again?" I hope not, because I hope to never find myself in such a position again! Knock on wood, but if I do find myself in need of legal service again, I would be glad to work with Cynthia.

Jason has a natural ability to transform difficult concepts into cogent and persuasive arguments both orally and in writing. As a litigator, he is assertive and confident; as a writer he is deliberate and conscientious; and as a person he is charming and witty.
Perhaps more than any other person I know, when Jason makes a statement, you can count on it being true. I have lost more than one argument by discovering that the facts were stubbornly in Jason's favor.

I am a business owner that unfortunately needed help resolving some problems with a frivolous lawsuit. I found Vincent thru a referral from another business owner. I cant say enough about his professionalism and his fast response anytime I called him. He actually took care of the situation and kept it from turning into a long drawn out court case. I refer him to all my customers and friends if they ever need an attorney.

Vincent handles our companies legal at Elite Automotive, LLC. and I can't say enough about his services. He has handled a few headaches for us at our business which resulted in our favor and we are totally satisfied. He returns calls and doesn't nickel and dime you for faxes and bull!@#$ like other attorneys do. He has fare rates and is worth what he charges.

I am very grateful to my lawyer Mr. Page. He has a thorough knowledge of the law and has over 20 years of experience in contested litigation. He defended my case (and several of my friends' cases) with determination. After trying other lawyers before him, I can say he is the absolute best lawyer I have ever had. And, he genuinely cares for his clients. I am very grateful to have found him. I highly recommend this law firm.

My divorce was nothing short of the most awful and stressful part of my life. Overwhelmed and feeling as if I would loose custody of my two little ones, I reached out through a recommendation. Mr.Page was even tempered, diligent, professional, and amazingly knowledgeable about family law and the family court system here in Las Vegas. He answered my questions and explained everything clearly. Even in post divorce disputes he has provided me with excellent legal support. I truly appreciate the peace of mind he brought me during my case and through that, to my family. Anytime I need legal assistance, I will contact him first. Thank you Mr.Page.

I have worked with Dylan Ciciliano on several cases involving corporate matters and real estate deals. Dylan exhibits tremendous legal knowledge and has surpassed my expectations on more than one occasion. He responds quickly and effectively to my legal requests with several business options best suited for the situation. I leave any interaction confident that the right decision was made. He is a true asset for a company of any size.
Dylan is an outstanding individual with a rare combination of talents. He genuinely cares for his clients and goes above and beyond what's required to provide the best legal advice. I would highly recommend Dylan Ciciliano to my friends, family, and business community. I look forward to continuing to work with Dylan in the future.

Dylan Ciciliano is an A-Player. His star talent is proven by his history of personal and professional successes. Dylan's dedication and work ethic allows him to outperform most legal counsel we've worked with, with minimal impact to our company's bottom line.
Our corporation has worked with a variety of legal firms and we knew immediately that Dylan Ciciliano's contribution was far more than just that of providing us with legal "tips" on how to grow our business. His services went far deeper and his involvement was far more profound. Dylan can be clearly set apart from most attorneys in that he is dedicated to servicing his clients with not only his technical skill set, but his intuition for strategy and positioning. Ultimately, Dylan's legal support has been valuable to our company's immediate needs as well as long term growth objectives.
An example of this would be whereas most attorneys will do "exactly as you ask", Dylan will help you work logically through decisions, considering any potential threats and the supposed outcomes if you were to take such direction. Dylan works to accomplish the client's goals, but also to help the client gain perspective and mitigate risks.
In addition to his skill and knowledge base, Dylan is also a pleasure to work with and has a charming personality. His attitude is always positive and this is a key driver for successful collaborations.
It is also important to mention Dylan's extensive background in economics, a sure benefit to any new business client he may have.

Dave took my case to trial and did better than the settlement offers extended by the other side, by a large margin. He's willing to challenge the other side's lawyers (or the judge), yet knows how to control the room with a direct, comfortable presentation that is confidence-inspiring and familiar. I am deeply grateful that I had Dave representing me and recommend him to others.

My company has worked closely with Byron for >10 years, and I can't say enough about how helpful he's been! Trucking companies like mine sometimes find themselves in interesting legal waters, and Byron has never failed to deliver, year after year and case after case. Sure, like any good attorney, he's busy; but in his uniquely responsive style, he always keeps us informed and ahead of the game. He is very knowledgeable about the current state of transportation law, and I can trust him to represent us with honesty and kindness. He makes it easy for us to focus on what we do best--trucking your stuff all over the planet!

I had the liberty to work with Cody on a multi unit case stemming for disclosure issues and Cody was instrumental in getting me a settlement in a short amount of time. He was on the case since day 1 and along with Terrry Moore these 2 attorneys are super knowledgeable with the current real estate laws in Vegas. Not only that they are very reputable based on their billings and the efficiency and results they bring. I would not hesitate to consult and utilize Cody's expertise next time in any real estate matter.

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.
