I can’t recommend Cherise Williams enough. She truly listened to my concerns, gave me clear options, and helped me achieve a better outcome than I imagined. For the first time, I felt heard and supported. She protected my assets and prioritized my time with my kids. If you’re a father looking to protect your rights, Cherise is the one you need

Not only is Dave an outstanding attorney, but also he supplies genuine concern for his clients. In the emotion of my case, Dave responded with kindness and wise counsel. Whenever I sent an email, his response was lightning fast, and his communication was thoughtful and insightful, providing guidance to help me decide how to move forward. Dave is one attorney I would recommend to any friend or acquaintance; I wouldn't think of Dave as appropriate for some but not for others. Dave invests himself 100% in your legal matter; you can feel confident you have found the best advocate. If you are looking for an attorney who will represent you with excellence, Dave's the right choice.

All around excellent lawyer. Mr. Pasti was able to get me out of a potential dui situation, knocked down to a dwi with little to none extra consequences, and beleive me I have learned my lesson. However Mr. Pasti was very professional, open to discussion regarding payment and just right on top of the case from the start.

In a world of slimy lawyers, Lindsay is a gift. Hire him immediately for all of your legal needs and never look back. I was referred to him by a friend and would not hesitate to refer him to other friends. 10/10 a very kind, honest, trustworthy, competent man.

Mr. Scott Brennan is a five-star professional. His insight and command of the legal system provided me confidence that my best interests were always protected. Specifically, his ability to explain any confusing "legal language" was priceless.
Mr. Brennan is extremely reliable, definitely sensible, and very responsive. His guidance surpassed all of my expectations and words cannot express my full gratitude.

I highly recommend this law firm. Someone directed me to this law firm when my daughter’s mother sued me for child custody and child support with the intention of extorting money from me. With the help of attorney Michael who practice under this law firm, my case was dismissed with prejudice . Michael is very knowledgeable with Maryland family law as well as international law. This was my first time going to court , I was nervous lol. Attorney Michael gave me some good legal advice with respect to my case. I am glad the case was dismissed.

I contacted Mr Hoffman on behalf of company over a contractual dispute. The opposing party had developed a majority of their financial basis for indemnification on matters not relevant to actual contract law. Additionally, the opposing attorney had made numerous errors in their filing. What I’ve highlighted is just a small portion of what Mr Hoffman was able to point out quickly and change the direction of this discussion toward a mediation and a “reasonable” level to negotiate. I felt Mr Hoffman did what was in my companies best interest to make matters practical and not emotional. As a small business owner trying to get by, the last thing I want is to deal with nuisances of a frivolous lawsuit… having Mr Hoffman on my side certainly brought clarity and confidence how we could handle this matter without creating an unnecessary and complex trial out of this.
Another item to highlight is that Mr Hoffman was quick to return calls/emails. When I originally reached out, he answered his phone. Can’t say that about any of the other attorneys I inquired with and I reached to a handful.

Called him late one evening to inquire about how to obtain my business license. He didn't get annoyed that it was after working hours. Instead, he promised to look it up first thing the next morning and get back to me which he did. He provided me with all the information I needed to get my business license. 5 stars is all this website offers but he gets 20 stars from me.
Thank you again Joel.

Recently I had received inferior work from a dentist claiming he was a specialist in a particular field of dentistry. In addition to paying an exorbitant fee for his service, I was extremely dissatisfied to say the least. I sought education on the topic of medical malpractice and found proficiency in the matter with Mr. Oakley. I suggest a person seek out Mr. Oakley for any of their legal needs.

Top caliber lawyer. I had a home improvement contract I was struggling to get out of after the contractor kept delaying the work and tried to bait and switch me with the materials they were going to use. He was thorough in going through the details of the contract and pragmatic about what my legal options were. Drafted a very well written letter to the contractors requesting a cancellation of the agreement which they promptly obliged to. Saved me a lot of headache. I'd recommend him without hesitation.

I have had a complicated case that needed to be defended.
I have searched and talked to many attorneys in this area of practice. I found Mark in Avvo due to his high rate of great answers to people's questions.
Then, I had the privilege to set up a time with him to have a consultation him. I found him a very knowledgeable and resourceful person. I would name him a researcher rather than solely an attorney, who knows exactly where to get the legal basis, what to do next, and how to act with clients and the court employees.
It has been a great journey working with him and I am very much satisfied with his detail-oriented personality and answering all of my questions.

Do not ever, and I mean ever, retain Ms. Pentecost as your lawyer. She knew her client was being held without bond since November. The client's court date was on 1/3, but she forgot, went out of town, and never told her client. Instead, she put in a motion to continue on 12/27 and filed it while she was out of town. The client found out from the CO that she was not going to court. The new court date is not until 2/6. This is ridiculous. I don’t know how she can call herself an attorney. Attorneys should not take clients if they’re not going to do their job. Cared noting about her client this has got to stop!!!

I’m not going to lie this was not my ideal way to start the holiday festivities! I really got myself into serious trouble and was scared to death. I contacted Mr Maronick after being referred and reading reviews. We went into court and I was facing jail time but Mr. Maronick fought until the end in front of a very difficult judge and I ended up with no jail time and a very good outcome. Long story short if you hire him he will not disappoint. He is very blunt and straight to the point but fought every step of the way. Thank you for everything!

When our local planning office approved a gas station on a site of great historical and community significance, we (as citizens) tried to fight it on our own. The gas company's corporate attorney was too much for us, and we didn't know where to turn. A chance call led us to Michele Rosenfeld, who understood our situation and went to work on our behalf. Although the planning office's original decision remained intact , Ms Rosenfeld was able to negotiate funding from the gas station folks to mitigate at least some of the damage their construction would do. An important point is that, because the planning office had approved the project and because Maryland's standing laws are surprisingly strict, the gas station folks were legally not required to do anything. Thanks to Ms. Rosenfeld, instead of telling us to go pound sand, the gas station company provided funding to address important needs that our planning office had just dismissed out of hand. Ms. Rosenfeld worked for us with reasonable fees and terms, and settled our issue with the best outcome possible.

Based on published reviews for Sari Kurland, I hired her for a help and paid $5,000.00 retainer in February 2024. I request a few times appointment, and she refused to meet with me. As of today no word from her, no bill and no refund. We are all stun by her dishonesty.

My mother accumulated a lot of credit card debt which I discovered upon helping her with finances and her health following a stroke. Due to her stroke, she was unaware of the gravity of this situation. Paying off her debts were increasingly becoming a huge burden to her financially as she also needed to be cared for at least 75% of the day. Upon researching and contacting local law firms handling bankruptcy cases, we discovered the Kurland Law Group. An initial contact from their office was quickly followed by an initial phone conference with one of their attorneys, to determine the type of bankruptcy my mother would qualify for. Following the phone conference, emails were sent to inform my mother and I the procedure, the contract, and paperwork requirements. While the process seemed to take a long time, as long as we provided all the information required, the Kurland Law Group was quick to do their end of the process. There was always good and clear communication. They made the bankruptcy process seamless. Attorney Hope and her assistant thoroughly briefed my mother prior to the meeting with the creditors. Because of the Kurland Law Group’s help, my mother now feels more responsible with her finances, thinking more meaningfully before spending. We highly recommend the Kurland Law Group’s services. They are a valuable asset to our community, for those who have a similar problem.

They were great from Start to finish. They sent me forms and assisted me along with way promptly when I had questions. On the day of meeting with the creditors, I couldn't get Zoom or the phone number to work. Because Hope was in the meeting as well, she got both myself and the Creditor on speaker phone to complete the process. I would recommend anybody to use this firm if you need to file with bankruptcy. Thanks, Tom L.

My family and I engaged Mr. Ronald Karp following my involvement as a victim in traffic accident (involving a truck) in 2012. Mr. Karp reviewed the case as it stood, and with his staff meticulously ferreted out the evidence to support my case. That evidence uncovered proved irrefutable and the several aspects of the case (medical, insurance, adequate compensation) were reviewed and comprehensively addressed.
The fees for handling my case were addressed up-front without any further ‘add-ons’ that might have been otherwise expected. Mr. Karp was involved in interviewing me first-hand and was involved in acquiring medical reports on the extent of my injuries. At no stage was there any coercion, for me or my family, to settle on any offered compensation. In fact, his actions encouraged us to ‘stay the course’ through the lengthy process of settlement which he advised could be extended. We felt, that to a great extent, we would be directly influential and involved in the outcome of the case and were confident that our attorney was acting scrupulously on our behalf.
Mr. Karp also, in his capacity of attorney, cleverly and successfully negotiated (on our behalf) with the medical insurance companies.
In the end, we (my family and I) were very pleased and satisfied with Mr. Karp’s and his colleagues’ efforts. We benefitted greatly from such human sensitivity and support. We are extremely grateful. On the Michelin scale, the service rendered could only be described as five star (*****). We also consider this to be an understatement of our own appreciation of his services. To potential clients, we recommend his services unequivocally.
Thank you Mr. Karp.

Mr. Williamowsky is one of the BEST attorneys you will ever find!!! I unfortunately had a very long drawn out divorce, child custody and many other issues. This man is awesome!! I can’t explain to you how phenomenal he is. He will give it to you straight, not waste your time or money and just a good person. He really is, unfortunately I had to deal with many attorneys and only 2 , Mr. Williamowsky and another one were great!! You can’t go wrong with this attorney A+++++++. I just can’t say enough about this man. You can’t go wrong with him on your side. Good luck.

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.

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.
