Wayne, Jackie and the team handled a case for our son. They were subject matter experts with the type of case that we were pursuing, they were expedient, thorough and kindly through the entire process and outmaneuvered the opposing side every step of the way. Our family will be forever grateful for the efforts of the Steedman Law Group. Thank you!

Mr. Steedman is extraordinary. He is thorough, incredibly knowledgable, calm, and even keeled, all making him so very effective. I hit a grandslam finding Mr. Steedman's services. Having kids with IEPs for the last 12 years, if I knew then what I know now, the last 12 years would have been so much better for my children. I will not approach another IEP or IEP meeting without his consultation and expertise. He is reasonable and completely focused on what the individual child needs to be successful. Working with him is not only a game changer, but a life changer for me and my children.

You will not find better, ever. Mr. Steedman has consulted on needs for 2 of my children. He is extraordinary, thorough, incredibly knowledgable, calm, and even keeled, all making him so very effective. I hit a grandslam finding Mr. Steedman's services. Having kids with IEPs for the last 12 years, if I knew then what I know now, the last 12 years would have been so much better for my children. I will not approach another IEP or IEP meeting without his consultation and expertise. He is so reasonable and completely focused on what the individual child needs to be successful. You have no idea what you don't know or what your children should be supported with, even if you think are doing all you can. The schools, IEP teams, and counties do not know either, even if they are trying their best. Working with Mr. Steedman in support of my children's educational needs is not only a game changer, but a life changer for me and my children.

That won't happen to me, I said. I am not of that race, nationality, or ethnicity, and so I did not speak out. That won’t happen to me, I said, I don’t practice that religion, and so I did not speak out. That won’t happen to me, I said, I’m not of that sexual orientation, and so I did not speak out. That won’t happen to me, I said, I’m not part of that income bracket, and so I did not speak out. That won’t happen to me, I said, I don’t have that disability, and so I did not speak out. That won’t happen to me, I said, until it was physically in my face, had me backed into a corner, and was spewing utter vitriol at me. That won't happen to me, I said, he'd never lay a hand on me, until one day the physical aggression caused me physical pain and injury. That won’t happen to me, I said, until thirteen months ago, when I found myself on the phone with a domestic violence hotline. That won’t happen to me, I said, until thirteen months ago, when I found myself hurriedly packing a bag and fleeing my home, and boarding an aircraft out of state, because I feared for my life and safety. Fifty years ago, when my mother and her family escaped their war-torn country with nothing but the clothes on their backs and one bag per person due to religious persecution, I never imagined that one day, fifty years into the future, that I too would one day find myself following in her footsteps, quite literally.
I never imagined that I would one day find myself fleeing my home with nothing but the clothes on my back and one small carry-on bag, and boarding a same-day aircraft bound for 1,000+ miles away, because I too feared for my life and safety. Thirteen months ago, when I found myself on the phone with a local domestic violence agency in my state, I never imagined that the proverbial door would get slammed in my face, on the basis that I earned too much money to qualify for any help or support. Since I was born and raised abroad, and with my own family still living halfway around the world, it was in that moment that I truly realized, and that it genuinely sunk in, that I was going to be completely and entirely alone in the process of escaping the cycle of violence.
In 1848, divorce was practically unheard of. Most states had fault-based divorce laws outlining the requirements and criteria permitting divorce: lunacy, adultery, desertion, or cruelty. This meant that couples could only pursue divorce IF they could prove, in a court of law, that one or the other had committed one of these offenses. However, given the laws (or lack thereof) governing women's rights and freedoms at the time, divorce was far more complex for women, as they remained at risk of being unable to regain their last names, unable to retain property acquired prior to their marriage, or unable to obtain custody of their children. These fault-based grounds are in stark contrast to the no-fault system that exists across most states today. Today, after decades of tireless advocacy, and thanks to incredible attorneys like Laurie Wasserman and Virginia Yeoman, people are no longer required to remain shackled to their spouses, and have the freedom to escape the cycle of violence. Thanks to the fabulous support of Laurie and Virginia, I've not only been able to survive, but I am slowly on my way to thriving again. The words "happiness" and "divorce" are the last two words you'd expect to see in the same sentence, but that is exactly what Virginia and Laurie have facilitated for me.
For anyone considering engaging the services of Laurie Wasserman and her team, from the bottom of my heart, I wholeheartedly recommend them and their entire office. They'll not only save your life, but they will also help re-unlock your door to freedom, health, independence, and joy again.

Attorney Chester has been referred to me by the online Montgomery Bar Association Referral Service. NO THE PHONE REFERRAL SERVICE, I have to underline that because they are incredible and do they best to assist. Back to Mr.Chester! I contacted him for a Condo Association dispute. first thing on the phone, He asked me what is the management company, I told him and he answered: " the company is owned by a good friend of his". Without being an attorney I spotted a conflict of interest right at the beginning of the conversation and the end of the conversation attests it and the lack of objectivity of this attorney. He found normal for a management company to hold a storage key of an owner for 2 years, He found normal a management company don't have and hold accurate and update paperwork. That management provide a 1989 ( 35 YEARS OLD) contract to be applied on a newly owned property of 2020. and so on.
I definitely DO NOT recommend this attorney.
He doesn't go to court to represent you or the law he studied!!

We are very pleased to have engaged Nicole Livingston and Council Baradel to complete our estate planning. Nicole and her team helped us through the process efficiently and caringly. All our concerns were answered, and they ensured all areas were covered, several of which we would not have otherwise known to address. We have since recommended Nicole to friends, who have told us how pleased they also were with the services provided. We would strongly recommend anyone in need of estate planning services to contact Nicole.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional service I received from the Eric Rosenberg Firm and Carolyn E. Dustin, Paralegal, in handling my injured auto claim. From start to finish, their professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for my situation made all the difference during a challenging time.
Eric Rosenberg and his team demonstrated a deep understanding of the legal process and ensured every aspect of my case was handled efficiently and thoroughly. Carolyn E. Dustin, in particular, was a true gem. She was always accessible, kept me informed at every step, and patiently answered all my questions, no matter how small. Her attention to detail and dedication to my case went above and beyond my expectations.
Thanks to their hard work, I was able to focus on my recovery while they took care of everything else. The outcome of my case exceeded my expectations, and I am incredibly thankful for their support and advocacy.
If you are looking for a firm that truly cares about its clients and delivers outstanding results, I wholeheartedly recommend Eric Rosenberg Firm and Carolyn E. Dustin. They are simply the best in the business!

I cannot thank Attorney Kiran Najeeb, from Rosenberg, Fayne & Raden, L.L.P. , enough for the incredible job she did with my first lawsuit and trial following a devastating car accident. From the very beginning, she demonstrated exceptional professionalism, compassion, and expertise. Navigating through my first legal case was overwhelming, but Kiran guided me every step of the way, ensuring I understood the process and felt supported throughout. Her attention to detail and dedication to securing the best possible outcome were evident in every aspect of her work. Thanks to her, I received the justice I deserved and felt a huge weight lifted off my shoulders.
For my second case, Eric stepped in, and he did an outstanding job handling everything with precision and care. He and Esther were very responsive, knowledgeable, and worked tirelessly to address every concern I had. Their collaborative efforts made the process seamless and stress-free for me, and I couldn’t be happier with the results they achieved.
Overall, I highly recommend Kiran and Eric to anyone in need of legal assistance. Their expertise, professionalism, and dedication are unmatched. Thank you all for making such a challenging time in my life much more manageable and for delivering outstanding results!

Attorney Davis consistently responded to my questions quickly, ensuring I felt informed and supported every step of the way.
Despite the challenges posed by a difficult opposing party, she successfully protected my custody arrangement, allowing me to keep my son in a stable environment. She also ensured that child support remained in place, which was critical for my son's well-being.
Her expertise, professionalism, and dedication made all the difference. If you’re looking for an attorney who truly cares about achieving the best outcome for your family, Pawnee Davis is the one to call!

My experience with the PA Davis Law Office has been excellent! Ms. Davis and her team provided invaluable assistance in updating a joint custody agreement while serving overseas in the military. Navigating the complexities of military service and updating a legal custody agreement could have been incredibly challenging, but Ms. Davis and her team handled it with expertise and professionalism. I had reached out to several attorneys, but due to the unique circumstances of my case and where i was stationed, they were unable to assist. Being from Maryland, I was relieved to find that the PA Davis Law Office team had the necessary expertise as they cover the DC/MD/VA area. The initial communication was a bit challenging because of the time zone difference pertaining to the update of the case, but Ms. Sofia and the team were extremely patient and understanding, which I really appreciated. I am grateful to Ms. Davis for taking on my case and to the entire team for their dedication and support throughout the process.

Atty Valkenet is a very straight forward kind of guy. Very knowledgeable, honest and to the point. No sugar coating. Provided key details as to why this situation would be a very difficult situation. Even though not exactly what we were hoping to hear, we respect his insight and direction. We are going to review some information so that we can make an informed decision on how/if we would to proceed. If needed in the future, we will give him a call and we would not ever want to me on the opposite side of the court room.

I would give this Firm 0 star if I could. Clients who come through LegalShield.com don't receive much attention and are treated like second-class citizens, or maybe even fifth-class, perhaps because they don't bring in money. Male ATY's tend to be a bit more friendly and show more respect and empathy. However, female ATY's have a rude, condescending attitude, which is even more pronounced when the client is also female. Apparently, they feel superior when they hear the problems presented to them, adopting an attitude like: "You're done, your problem is unsolvable, and you'll have to accept it and deal with it." In a profession that involves interacting with people, where empathy is important. It's clear that many of these women pursued a legal career just for status and ego. If you are referred by Legalshield, be prepared for the worst scenario. For those who have a lot of money and are willing to spend thousands of dollars on a case, well, the rules of the game change.

Mr. Felsen was absolutely amazing! He went over and beyond his call of duty for me, ended up taking on an additional surprise case, and stepped in for my bond hearing. He worked over the weekend to ensure my needs were met for my cases. He even delivered our evidence to the court room in a snowstorm for the next day. Mr. Felsen gave me both the pros and cons to each decision that would be made on my end. He was a diamond in a rough. I wasnt just another number to him. I could tell he truly cared. He also is a monster in the court room and knows law very well. He knows when to be aggressive. My situation is very weird and was a challenging one, but he came through and won our cases. He even visited me while I was incarcerated on a Sunday and he spoke with the Commissioner at 12:30 AM unexpectedly for a different case he wasnt planning on working on. Mr. Felsen truly cares and is passionate about what he does that is what sets him apart from the millions of Attorneys out here. He will fight to the end for you. I am so grateful to have had him because I knew he would be fully transparent and give it to me straight. I would highly recommend calling Mr. Felsen for your representation needs.

I had a unique situation where I had a tenant move out of an owner occupant property in Baltimore city. The tenant was a nightmare to deal with. Anything she could do to postpone, or take responsibility for her actions, she would do. Ian and his team worked diligently enforcing the legal side and made sure I was in the loop of every step of the process. Ian was easy to talk to, understanding, and compassionate towards my situation. Ian was very knowledgeable in this process and also helped me feel at ease with the situation I was in.

Jonathan Scott Smith is the most professional and knowledgeable attorney I have ever met. After a few months of research, I drove almost an hour to ask him to take a case previously held by another attorney. I knew after our first meeting he was the only person that I would trust going forward. The case was capped by my coverage and full of complications. Not only did he take my case, but he also won my case! He counseled me throughout, made it very convenient, fought for me no matter what came our way, even during Covid, and stood his ground. I was consistently kept in the loop of information and prepared for deposition and settlement. He was always 10 steps ahead and prepared for everything, even the unexpected which did arise. His confidence and knowledge gave me confidence when speaking in settlement. Linda in the office is amazing! She kept me informed and answered my questions, along with making me feel better on even my worst and most painful days. I could never say enough about how amazing the Jonathan Scott Smith law team are and I recommend them to everyone. They gave my family and I part of our life back!

I was a victim of a slip and trip accident at a prominent casino. 4 other firms turned down my case. Mr. Smith was my last chance. I am glad I made the call to him when I did. He fully explained that cases like this are a hard win, because the property has to accept liability. He took on my case and was diligent with acquiring all document from my medical providers. This was a long case held up by my very own medical providers, but Mr. Smith persevered and kept after what was needed. All of this while he experienced office staff changes, various paralegals errors combined with a strong caseload of his own. The fruit of the tree came to pass, he secured me a settlement that exceeded my minimum acceptable settlement.... SIGNIFICANTLY.. exceeded. I would recommend this firm and Johnathan Smith to anyone who feels they need a real advocate and someone who will do the work for you.

We contacted Mark after my son received his first, and hopefully last, speeding ticket. Mark was very knowledgeable about the law, process and was very reassuring and honest with us. We could not have asked for a better outcome. Mark was amazing and we are very grateful for his services.

He listens to every word you say and even if it takes 20 minutes without interruptions he will allow you to explain the case.
Then he cautiously gives you the best advice you need. What more can you ask for? Thank you Mr. Charles!

Mr. Ware is not your typical attorney. His years of experience, intelligence, integrity, patience and creativity make him one-of-a-kind within the legal industry. I came to find Mr. Ware during the most difficult time in my life - my separation/divorce. His kind calm and reassuring manner put me at ease while he diligently continued to work on my case. He was (and still is) with me every step of the way, no matter what. He will not give up. I highly recommend Mr. Ware if you are in need of an attorney.

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.
