We had a case where we had sold our house and thought we had moved on to our new residence without a hitch, when four months later, we received a letter from the buyer's attorney demanding money for repairs for items that they accused us of hiding from them in the disclosure document. Ryan was recommended by a mutual friend, and he turned out to be an excellent choice as our legal representative. At the first meeting, he was very easy to communicate with, as he listened very intently to glean all the details and documentation that we had concerning the case. He quickly came to the conclusion that our opponents had no grounds to make such financial demands and proceeded to elaborate on his strategy to defend us. I liked his plan and I liked his style. Within a just a few days, Ryan had come to an agreement with the opposing party, which resulted in them dropping the case. Furthermore, Ryan also showed a great amount of integrity, in that he informed us that he was giving back a certain amount of money to us, because he did not require as much as we had initially given him to proceed with the case. Ryan Sandstrom is definitely a "5 star" attorney in my book!

I never thought I would be a person who would have to hire an attorney to help resolve a simple water flood I had in my home, but the insurance left me no choice. Hiring Ryan Sandstrom was the best decision I have ever made when it came to protecting my rights and my personal assets. Ryan was always available and very understanding of my feelings and listened well to all my frustrations. With that being said, Ryan was very good at finding the facts surrounding our claim and never let emotions drive his demands and decisions while dealing with my insurance company. Every e-mail and phone call was promptly returned and was done so with compassion and understanding. This was not an easy process for me or my family. We had been fighting with our insurance company for months, moving from our in-laws to a hotel and then ultimately ending up in a rental. It was not until we hired Ryan that things started to move quickly and immediately. I would recommend Ryan to anyone who is having a difficult time getting answers or responses from their insurance company. It is only because of the expertise, professionalism and determination of Ryan that our claim got resolved and paid. We can not thank Ryan enough for his time and dedication and ensuring we were made whole for the damages that occurred in our home. My wife, 5 kids and myself are going to be able to move back into our home this weekend thanks again to Ryan. If you are ever questioning whether or not to hire an attorney, I am sorry for what you might be going through but know you do not have to do it on your own. Ryan will be your voice, your advocate and will get you what you are owed. Please do not hesitate to protect you or your family by hiring Ryan, you will NOT regret it. Thank you Ryan from the bottom or our hearts, we were blessed beyond measure to have you on our side.

We hired Ryan for a case where we were being sued. Understandably, this was very unsettling and Ryan took the time to explain everything about the case, our options and possible outcomes. Any time we had questions, he was very approachable and quickly responded to us with answers. He spent time collaborating with us making sure everything was covered and did an excellent job of pleading our case to the judge. I was extremely impressed with how he represented us and thankfully, the case was ultimately thrown out. While it is our hope that we do not need his services again, I would highly recommend Ryan to anyone facing a similar situation.

Taylor and the rest of the team at May Potenza Baran & Gillespie were absolutely great to work with! They helped us with the sale of a business and lease negotiations. Throughout the process they listened to what we had to say and provided guidance on matters we were unfamiliar with. We always felt they represented our best interests and they never pushed us to accept terms from the other party we weren't comfortable with. Having them in our corner helped relieve some of the burden of an otherwise very stressful process. They were also quick to jump in at the last minute and take over a matter they hadn't previously been involved with to help get the deals done. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. They are professional, friendly, and well-qualified!

I hired Nora after my sibling's falsely accused me of not meeting my trustee duties. It was the hardest time of my life. I lost my parents and those who were supposed to be there to support me were against me. Nora did an incredible job at clearly explaining the next steps and helping me understand what options I had available. She kept me calm and focused on one step at a time. Even when she was faced with insane drama from my sibling's she stayed positive and always reassured me everything was going to be okay. She went above and beyond countless times, especially when my mom passed. I can't imagine getting through the last years without her knowledge, guidance, and empathy. Nora has my complete trust and I highly recommend her for anyone going through similar situations.

I was in a serious auto accident a few years ago and I was given Shannon Clark's name as someone that could help me. Shannon and his firm was instrumental in working towards a resolution with a large corporation. My vehicle was totaled and I spent over a year recovering from my injuries. The financial impacts were devastating and limited resourcing to take on a large company. It was a David and Goliath situation and without him I would not have been able to reach a settlement and get my life back. He kept me informed every step of the way and I am forever thankful for not only his legal support but the emotional support.

David was able to reach a settlement for me when on my own I kept being stonewalled by personnel in higher positions. David started with a 60-day demand letter to this government entity. He followed up when we heard nothing at 60 days. He learned the request had "fallen through the cracks!" He continued to make calls, justifying that I deserved payment of back wages. A settlement finally came, including payment to cover most of his fee. I appreciate that David continued to chip away at what seemed impossible.

The death of my mother was very hard in many ways, but the loss of my stepfather/ Dad of 30yrs was devastating to say the least. I truly thought nothing could be worse. Then my step siblings and his ex-wife decided to try to make me and my nephew into thief's and horrible people. I never would have believed that the court's would have allowed this whole thing to go as far as it did. Allegations and blatant lies, not proof, but it did. If it hadn't been for Davis and Doug I honestly think they might have gotten away with it, since I'm a step daughter, FYI: Stepdaughter I found to be something of a "bad thing" automatically. Thank you for listening and fighting for us. Thank you for not allowing my dad to be misrepresented as well, even though that was a byproduct, I know he would be thankful as well.

I am very grateful to God for leading me to Attorney, Robert Wooten. God truly acts in mysterious ways. I am currently going through a divorce. My wife filed an Order of Protection against me, so she could gain access to our children, my home and my business. I thought I could handle the Order of Protection hearing on my own. I didn't really want to retain an attorney because I did not think I could afford to pay for one as I do not make a lot of money. I was very wrong. Attorney Robert Wooten not only charged me less in attorney's fees than most criminal defense lawyers would normally charge, he also went above and beyond the call of duty. As a result of Attorney Wooten's hard work, the restraining order was modified and now I get to spend invaluable time with my precious babies... priceless! Thank you Mr. Robert Wooten! Engen. N

Attorney Stewart has the ability to mirror his action, in both timing and aggressiveness, to the task at hand with the ability to draw upon his legal experience while being able to provide an explanation to someone who is not an attorney in such a way that can be understood and acted upon. His advice is sound, appropriate and realistic to my needs.

We hired Tim Tarter in regards to an IRS audit in 2009 - 2013. The IRS stated that we owed hundreds of thousands of dollars due to the fact that we were raising and training horses as a hobby. Tim Tarter helped us prove that our quarter horse ranch was not a hobby. Anyone having tax issues or audits should hire Tim Tarter. We would not have been able to settle our case without his expertise

I had the opportunity to work with Casey to set up my LLC. Before engaging her services, she provided about at 45 min consultation which was very helpful in deciding which path I needed to take. After that initial call, I did decide to use her services to set up my company and am planning on engaging her going forward for my additional business legal needs.

I am in the early stages of litigation, but Casey has been outstanding so far. My case has severely affected my emotional and mental wellbeing so when seeking an attorney, I was looking for someone who showed compassion and empathy for my situation. Casey displayed both of these traits and for that I am thankful. I look forward to continuing our relationship. Thanks!

I consulted with Casey about a Severance package between myself and a now former employer. Casey not only took the time out of her busy schedule to meet with me within hours of the time I reached out to her, but she was honest, and read through everything carefully, as well as educated me on multiple other realistic options I have available to me. She looked out for my best interest. I highly recommend Casey, and would work with her again with no questions asked. Thank you Casey. The world could use more people with your integrity, and sense of urgency when it comes to helping people in difficult situations.

I hired Mohamad to handle a particularly awful civil case. His professionalism and calm demeanor made me always feel confident that I was in good hands. His work was always thorough and the billing fair. He kept me informed at all times and took the time to explain the process when I did not understand it. I would highly recommend Mohamad and the Dumond Law Firm.

I am so glad "we found each other". She not only helped me manuever through the legal process of my divorce, but helped me "survive" it also. She genuinely WANTS to help her clients. She is worth a ton more, than what she charges. She should add "divorce counselor" to her title!

Mrs. Lepore has been my attorney during a very difficult divorce. After 3 long years of getting no where, while having another divorce attorney, I was referred to Mrs. Lepore. By my first appointment she had already acquired as much information as she could put her hands on, so she was was already prepared when I met her. She has displayed her knowledge of TN law, by being completely accurate in every question I threw her way. She has been readily available through phone or e-mail, keeping me currently updated on every detail of my case, almost on a daily basis. If unavailable, my phone calls or emails are returned within the day. She has not only been a terrific lawyer, but a counselor to me as well, always sensitive to my feelings and emotions. Many times I have called her in tears, with her reassuring encouragement that things would be OK, often referring to her as "my therapist"!!! I began quickly to trust her completely, and have followed her advice, which has proven to be very beneficial. My divorce settlement came out in my favor which I completely attribute to Mrs. Lepore; (things were looking very grim with the attorney I previoulsy used.) Athough my divorce was granted a few months ago, Mrs. Lepore has continued to follow through, making sure the stipulations of my settlement agreement have been followed by my ex-husband. I completely trust her, not making a move without her. She continues to be the person I seek out for advice, and has made a horrible time in my life, quite tolerable. Mrs. Lepore is an intelligent, as well as concerned and sensitive person, and I would highly recommend her as an attorney. She has truly been a life saver to me.

Working through corporate litigation cases and personal employment legal matters for a number of years I’ve found it’s important to have the most detailed and passionate attorney to represent you. Charitie is above and beyond the best legal mind I’ve worked with in my career. She manages her cases with total ownership and a meticulous understanding of not only the law, but her clients position and best interests. She is very straight forward and won’t take a case for the sake of taking a case. She is a champion for the law and her clients. I highly recommend Charitie!

Charitie is the best lawyer I have retained. Before my initial phone consultation, she had already thought of few strategies to present to me. She has actual experience and can advise her clients on expected outcomes and what's worth fighting for. She's brilliant, responsive, and goal-oriented. She wanted me to succeed with a realistic path forward. (Other lawyers I retained were always late to execute paperwork, they didn't know how to negotiate, or I was the client that provided the strategy for them to adopt. She had a plan.) She has established herself in Phoenix as a very hard-working attorney. Upon our first call, I knew that I wouldn't have any concerns to have her represent me.

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.
