Attorney Andrew Berman was extremely thorough. In my case he was relentless in seeking justice. I couldn’t see my self depending on any other attorney. Attorney Berman is without a shadow of doubt the best there is. I highly recommend EquitasLaw LLP and Attorney Andrew Berman.

Attorney Andrew Berman is without a doubt one of the best attorneys I have ever met. He is always accessible, a consummate professional. I would recommend him to anybody seeking representation. He made a very stressful time in my life more tolerable. Having him representing me gave me the confidence I needed. He is without a doubt an outstanding attorney. I cannot thank him enough for his work.

Attorney Berman is a consummate professional. He is very respectful and also highly approachable and accessible. He listened to my concerns with empathy and with a genuine desire to clear me of charges related to a misunderstanding gone horribly awry. He achieved the practically unachievable: convincing the judge that I deserved a Continuance Without a Finding for a charge for which judges typically do not issue CWOFs. He was able to do this drawing from his extensive criminal defense experience and by working closely with me to ensure that my case was the strongest that it could possibly be. His firm couldn't have a more appropriate name: Equitas, meaning justice in Latin, is exactly what Attorney Berman is committed to and nothing less. Anyone considering him should know that they would be in expert hands. Do not hesitate to retain him. Your freedom and record will be all the better off for it! Criminal cases can be extremely draining and stressful, but working with Andrew greatly mitigates that. I can't thank Andrew enough for everything he has done for me, and I know that he and his team at Equitas are going to keep doing what they do best: pursuing justice for their clients.

I initially went to Richard Grossack - or Rocky for short - through the suggestion of a family friend and my entire experience with him was above and beyond what I could have expected. Not only did he explain all of my options clearly and concisely, but he also communicated with me throughout the entire process and followed up with me afterwards. I highly recommend his services to anyone in need. Thanks again for everything Rocky!

Attorney Grossack was an absolute professional and was able to settle my case with almost no hassle at all. He was very confident and exhibited poise and expertise at all times. Attorney Grossack, as difficult as I may have been, never hesitated in returning my phone calls or emails or answering the many questions I had for him. I would highly recommend his services to anyone needing a personal injury attorney in Boston. Thanks Rocky.

As landlords, we contracted Erica to review our existing lease and modify as she saw necessary. There were definitely a few sections that we were missing in our agreement. She was quick to pick up on that and amend appropriately for any future tenants. She was very prompt in reviewing the lease and return the modified version for our review. Her time and cost estimate were very reasonable and competitive. Working with Erica on this small project was an absolute pleasure!

Attorney Click recently represented our large extended family in a case where a prominent attorney attempted a land taking by claiming adverse possession. When we approached David, he was extremely busy but agreed to represent us in a timely manner that was needed to answer the complaint. Prior to contacting David we had spoken with other lawyers who were reluctant to go up against this particular well known law firm. David does not shy away from difficult. He knows the laws and is able to articulate his thoughts in a concise manner. He was very professional and nice to work with, and listened to any input that we wanted to contribute. He offered to travel to meet with the multiple people involved as most did not live nearby. The case reached a settlement agreeable to all defendants as well as the plaintiff having to pay all of our attorney fees. We highly recommend David as an attorney.

A commercial customer canceled my contract and refused to pay the outstanding invoice, a five figure sum. David took on my case after direct appeals failed to product any results. David is a careful, detailed listener and assembled a fairly complete picture of the situation by the end of our first phone call. Subsequently, he spoke with other involved parties, prepared the necessary affidavits, and filed suit in Norfolk Superior Court. His preparation is very thorough, exploring multiple avenues of enforcing the payment of my invoices. Ultimately, he presented my case in Superior Court with clarity and force. When the judge compliments your attorney on his presentation, you know you've picked a winner. After the first day in court, opposing counsel promptly advised his client to move to a settlement. I was reimbursed nearly 100% of the outstanding debt. While I would prefer not to go through any of this again, David would absolutely be my first call. He is top notch, well prepared, and knowledgeable regarding the intricacies of the legal system and its exacting requirements. -- Highly recommended.

I have had the pleasure of working with David for nearly four years. He has handled numerous matters for me, both civil and criminal. I have worked with other attorneys in the past and I can honestly state beyond any reasonable doubt, that David is the most kind and compassionate attorney I have ever met. He genuinely cares for his clients and he has demonstrated that to me time and time again in the courtroom. He helped me navigate several complex civil and complex criminal cases simultaneously. He zealously represented me and fought for the best possible outcome. To this day, I sincerely believe that David saved my life. David sets the standard for excellence and professionalism. He is very responsive and made himself available to me outside normal business hours. I never had any issues communicating with him. He never wasted my time nor my money. I will forever owe David a debt of gratitude.

Last year I was injured while shopping in a larger department store. I felt hopeless and had no idea where to turn for help. My medical bills were adding up, and i had limited use of my right hand due to the injury. The department store had several of their own representatives and lawyers calling me and offering little to no compensation. They kept telling me to sign a release statement of theirs. I didn't know what to do and I was about to give up when a friend of mine gave me the number to Hamilton and Hamilton. He said they have helped him in the past and that he thought they could help me too. I called Attorney Christopher Hamilton the same day, and explained briefly what had happened to me. He listened to all I was going through and immediately took my case. He immediately made me feel at ease with his professionalism and confidence. I knew it wouldn't be easy dealing with the department stores attorneys , but he never backed down. He fought for everything I deserved.. He was so helpful, and kept me informed during the whole process. The department store didn't want to give me anything for my injury, but in the end Attorney Hamilton negotiated a fair settlement which exceeded all my needs without me ever having to step into a courtroom.. I will use him for all my future legal needs..

Not only does Attorney Hamilton serves our country as an armed forces Colonel but he is also a very dedicated, trustworthy, committed and talented lawyer with the highest ethical standards. I was recently taken advantage of by a contractor who accepted payment from me to complete a job but did not perform the services as were specified in the contract. I was out several thousands of dollars and overwhelmed by the thought of having to navigate the legal system on my own. I contacted Attorney Hamilton and he immediately advised me of my rights and started the process of ensuring justice in my case. Attorney Hamilton possesses strong interpersonal and communication skills which are key for individuals like myself needing clarity and guidance in these types of matters. He is extremely thorough in his approach, highly skilled and knowledgeable of the legal system. His commitment to resolving my case has far exceeded my expectations. If you, like me, have been treated unfairly and need a dedicated, skilled legal professional you can trust, I highly recommend Attorney Christopher Hamilton.

I found Josh when I was looking for someone to help defend my roommates and I's security deposit against a shifty landlord. Having never had to speak with a lawyer before I'd been intensely worried about the whole process and had lost a couple nights sleep leading up to meeting for the first time. After getting to talk to him however, it seemed like all the stress of the situation melted away. He explained exactly how the whole small claims process works in simple terms, helped me walk through my documentation and all of our options, and listed the various outcomes we could expect. We started the ball rolling and our landlord almost immediately folded and gave us back the sum of our deposit. Thought we had the option to try for triple damages, my roommates and I didn't want to pursue it, and Josh never pressured us in any direction. Now the whole matter is resolved, and it was way easier than I'd been expecting. I hope I don't ever have to hire help to deal with a landlord again, but if I do, I'll most certainly come back and speak with Josh.

I hired Ryan Rucki to represent me in my recent purchase of my condo. As it was my first purchase, I was very nervous. Ryan always took the time to answer any question that I had - and there were many! He always returned calls and e-mails promptly. He also explained every aspect of the transaction in a way that I completely understood and was very knowledgeable. When it came time to review and sign the purchase and sale agreement, Ryan drove out to meet me at a coffee shop so that I could review it during my lunch break. He explained every clause to me and made sure that I understood each one completely and was happy with the agreement, as a whole, before I signed. At closing, Ryan explained every document in detail and was happy to stop and explain further when I had questions. Ryan made sure that the transaction went without a hitch and I was truly happy with the results.

My lawyer and I were struggling with some major issues in my divorce negotiations. I was suddenly in a time crunch with a lot on the line. I made a crucial decision to ask Randy to step in and represent me. He hit the ground running! He's quick with math and can think on his feet. He was able to make some changes in a very short period of time, appeared on my behalf, and in one hour increased my alimony enough to cover my legal fees. He eventually got me to an arbitrator, Anthony Doniger at Sugarman Rogers, and in the end, I walked away with everything I needed to be financially secure. Randy also followed up on the details to make sure all of the documentation on pensions and QDRO were done. It was stress for me....as stress free as a divorce can be after a nightmare of difficulty.

Attorney Hadas helped me win my civil case after being falsely accused by Atty Edward A. Obrien and Atty Christopher Cercone. As a Paralegal with some experiences, I thought it was a piece of cake until I got lost in the process of the rules... Attorney Hadas came along like "David against Goliath," took time to catch up with the case with several meetings, going through stack of documents, understood my contention, sought my demands and took up the case. I've worked with several other corrupt Attorneys who took money then plan a withdraw for justified reasons, but not Attorney Hadas. He was more focused on liberating me from false accusations.

I am an attorney, and I have chosen David Hadas to represent me in a case involving new legislation and areas of first impression in this legislation. I have found Attorney Hadas to be attentive and legally informed in a fast-changing legal scenario under newly-issued Appellate decisions regarding this legislation. He has demonstrated superior abilities in factual and legal analysis in complex matters, and is able to brilliantly synthesize discussion of these issues in his legal writings. In dealing with clients under duress, Attorney Hadas is calm, logical and persuasive; as he is in court appearances and with the opposition, smoothing the path as he works diligently for his client. I would not hesitate to recommend Attorney Hadas for representation in any area he chooses.

I like to joke with Shehzad that he is too honest to be a good lawyer. Shehzad is warm, friendly, honest, trustworthy, diligent, thoughtful, caring, and tireless. He took on my first case against a big employer, and he went toe to toe with the highest price Boston lawyers, and he won. He handled their posturing, their threats, their aggression with calm demeanor and the facts. Shehzad's fees were more than reasonable. His bills were always detailed, specific down to what he talked on the phone about, not just "phone call" items. He was amazing with his turn-around time, and often asked me question late into the night as he did his homework for the case. Shehzad's practice is a family practice, with his wife and mother-in-law. Each has their specialities, so if Shehzad is not the best choice for your case, one of the other family members may have the expertise required. The practice is small and away from Boston, so you don't get the suit-and-tie salesman treatment and then handed off to a paralegal or a junior lawyer, but just an honest, wholesome lawyer trying to advise and advocate your case with conviction and passion. I highly recommend Shehzad Rajwani, and I continue to entrust his advice on our business and other legal matters. I have had a half dozen lawyers over the last 15 years, but now that I have Shehzad, like a good auto mechanic, I won't let him go anytime soon.

We handed over the whole case to her. She isn't a hot-head as many attorneys can be but she deals with these hot-heads in a very decisive fashion but in a calming way.

She facilitated the communication between us and the school management which enabled us to present part of the truth that were not known to the school and assisted us with presenting our views on the issue, all in a conciliatory and professional manner . Moreover, she helped us deepen our understanding of the school environment and school- related legal environment. Her wonderful support, both at legal and personal level, resulted in the best outcome possible for our son. Without it, our son would have faced harsh and serious punitive decisions, and I am convinced that only due to Attorney Brown's involvement we reached a fair result, and were able to restore our lives to normality.

Marianne helped me contest a DCF negligence finding that was erroneous, political and based on a improper facts. She did her homework, worked with me to define a strategy, and constructed a rock solid case based on specific details and irrefutable logic. She was thoroughly prepared for the Fair Hearing and laid down a detailed argument that the other side could not factually dispute. She skillfully interviewed the witnesses and carefully poked holes in DCF’s initial finding. Her argument was so logical and on point, that the DCF case workers had to admit during the hearing that they cannot stand behind many of the facts presented in their finding.. Her preperation paid off and the finding was reversed. I strongly recommend Marianne to those in the education profession looking for someone who understands the complexities of our field.

She was tenacious in researching and supporting our legal position and in drafting very strong documents which forced the school to concede. She took a genuine interest in our case and our child.

This was important as it involved family. In representing us, he did his best to resolve the issue and not go to court. We went to court and won on all three of the counts.

I have hired Tim Moriarty to be my attorney a couple times in criminal cases. He is a very nice and a very smart guy. He is easy to talk to and has the answers to your questions. He works very hard for his clients and I think hes worth every dollar. I think he is fair priced compared to what other attorneys charge and don't do for their clients. He is very good at what he does, he explores all avenues in your case and will let you know your options. He will be truthful to you, hes not there to just take your money. When he is in the court room presenting facts or whatever he might be doing he is amazing, you can tell he is in his element. He does a great job at how he lays all the evidence out then sums it together. I know he enjoys his job and it shows. Hes an all around great person and is the attorney I recommend to everyone. Thanks again Tim

Attorney Moriarty recently represented me on a number of legal issues involving criminal defense. He is extremely hardworking and well-prepared. I like that he is such an easy person to communicate with. I was most impressed with his work at trial. He pretty much killed it in front of the jury and embarrassed the prosecutor. Highly recommended.

I hired Chris after being hit with a restraining order from my soon to be ex-wife right before the holidays. Chris worked very closely with me and my divorce attorney to understand the background to my case, helped analyze the implications of the restraining order and thoroughly explained my options going forward. Despite this all occuring several days before Christmas, Chris was quick to respond to my questions and thoroughly prepared me for my day in court. Chris also worked with my soon to be ex-wife's attorney and was able to work out an agreement that was mutually beneficial for all parties. I can't thank Chris enough for his work and would highly recommend him.

Chris is a true professional and knowledgeable in his field of law. He was very helpful with my sons case. I gave him the facts because we felt the charges were extreme. Chris listened and gave us the assurance we needed to hear compared to other lawyers I Interviewed. He is not out to take advantage of his clients. I felt confident he knew what he was doing. His fees were what we agreed and reasonable. There was no 'dog and pony show' here! I want to thank Chris publicly and would highly recommend him.

Bruce Bierhans helped our family after the tragic loss of our mother. Bruce supported our family every step of the way. He helped us to tell my mother's story and honor her memory, while seeking justice on her behalf. Bruce's tireless dedication and integrity were evident throughout the entire legal process and particularly at trial. Bruce Bierhans is an intelligent, kind, experienced and compassionate attorney who puts everything into his work. I am so grateful he was in our corner. Bruce Bierhans is truly in a class by himself. As a practicing attorney myself, I must add that the legal profession is better because Bruce Bierhans is a member.

I found myself in a tough situation when my landlord threatened to withhold my security deposit and demanded that I compensate him for two years of water and sewage bills amounting to just under 3k. I consulted Bryan and he reviewed my lease and sent a letter to the landlord. Bryan negotiated the return of my security deposit and I did not have to pay any money toward water and sewage. Bryan was well informed as to the applicable laws, knew my rights, and kept me well informed. I would certainly hire Bryan again, and recommend him to anybody seeking legal representation

I have a breach of contract case and need consult an attorney. I got Jill's name from google search via lawyer rating website. She called me back the next day and we talked over the phone for longer than I can expected (especially from an attorney). She analysed my case vs the potential cost to me. She is very caring and thoughtful attorney, different from the general impression I got for "attorney's reputation". I highly recommend her and definitely use her in the future.

She pursued our case doggedly and didn't give up when we were denied at first. She persisted and tried various approaches until we ultimately succeeded. Gina was a tireless advocate for us.

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.
  • 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.
