Shyster. Whole office gets important dates mixed up, names and roles mixed up, rushes you to a settlement, makes settlement offers without clients’ approval, makes you feel inferior, dishonesty, withholds important case information, overall does not make you feel at ease, and more. Heed with caution.

Today I spoke with Mr. Baumstark regarding a few concerns in preparation for court. To say he was helpful as well as thorough, would be an understatement. He provided context and professional insight for my concerns & assured each questions was answered before the end of the call. In the event someone needs representation in the near future, I’ll advise them to request a consultation with his office!

My journey through the judicial system in Illinois was not easy. My husband was attacked and later died from the injuries. The attacker was charged and after 5 plus years of trial postponements the attacker was acquitted. I couldn't find an attorney that would represent me in the civil suit until I found Luke. Luke took the case knowing it was not a slam dunk. When Joe (the attacker) was acquitted I expected Luke to tell me there was no hope for the civil suit and walk away. Instead Luke searched the court transcripts, connected the dots from the criminal trial and negotiated a settlement for me. During the process Luke kept me informed, he explained the difficulties of the case, what I could expect and really understood how difficult this process was for me. He guided me through the process making sure I didn't settle too soon for too little. The settlement can't bring Don back, nothing can. But now my family and I have closure and we can move forward. Luke, I can't thank you enough for being an excellent attorney and a caring person. Nelka

Luke stepped up to take on my sister's civil suit when her attorney became a judge and no one else was interested in taking on the challenge. The matter was complex and Luke's thoroughness in reviewing the statements and findings resulted in his being able to put together a solid case to win. Further, he guided my sister in the settlement negotiations to be sure she didn't settle too soon for too little. Beyond his legal expertise, Luke was personable and helped my sister through this very emotional period listening to her and guiding you throughout the process. Luke is a true partner from start to finish.

First time needing a lawyer so I was not sure what to do.Mr Walter was top notch . He explained everything in detailed as to how the system works. Never did I have to call and ask him what the next step was. He always called me to keep me informed , even if it was on weekends . He was always looking out for what was right, for me and my Family. And I believe at some points he took it personally. Eric Walter was our best choice in the end for me and my family , hands down!

We were looking for help with our estate planning and aked a couple of friends for recommendations. Emily Kirk came highly recommended and rightfully so. She made the whole process very simple and easy to understand. My husband and I don't have any legal experience so it was nice to be able to ask plenty of questions. She was super organized and provided a lovely binder with everything we needed and went over exactly what we needed to do on our part to make sure we were set up for success.

Caleb Petersen is hands down one of the best you will find in St. Louis. I hired Caleb to handle a complex family law matter and could not have been more satisfied with the level of professional work that he delivered. As things progressed in my case, Caleb was always on top of the relevant information regarding my case. He was extremely knowledgeable and was always very upfront and realistic when we discussed the aspects of my case. The biggest selling point for me was that he was always quick to respond to my questions which was a very big issue that I had with my previous attorney in my initial divorce. I have and will continue to recommend Caleb to those needing an attorney.

Six years after my home was built I hired a outdoor sprinkler company to install there system. One week latter I discovered that a finished section of my basement was flooded. I met with the insurance company that covered this company and showed them the damage. At that time the insurance company inspector told me that the damage was not there fault. He said that the company that built my home was at fault. By now I had a local plumber dig up the area that the system connected to my water source found the leak and had the pictures to prove that the system was not properly installed and was leaking into my foundation wall causing the flooding. I hired Ken Heinz. After a series of phone calls and letters Ken got the insurance company to pay for the entire cost of redoing my basement...new carpet, drywall, wood trim and paint. I along with my entire family have used Ken for wills,trusts and real estate transactions.

Ken Heinz has been the City Attorney for Richmond Heights since the mid 90's. During this time I was elected to the Council and elected Mayor. The Council and I relied on Mr. Heinz for all legal issues with the city, legislative and litigious. His research was always thorough and ensured that the city was on solid legal footing. Ken helped me organize my personal papers and make my wishes known for my family. I also had a dispute that required me to sue to recover funds owed to me. Ken was able to recover everything and in a timely manner. In short I trust Ken Heinz with all things legal and have not been disappointed.

In the end we decided not to take legal action, and he told me exactly why he made this recommendation. My impression of him was that he is very tough, very smart, and does not like to lose in court.

In addition, he and his son, John, have been very fair to us, yet challenged us in many ways of things we need to be more aware of going forward. They have not seemed to be just interested in "money," as is so frequently the buzz on the street about lawyers.

I had the pleasure to work with John on a very difficult and sensitive employer issue, and would recommend John to anyone who finds themselves in a difficult position. John demonstrated clear understanding of the facts and specific situation. He was compassionate, very knowledgeable, offered clear explanations, and developed several clever approaches for this delicate issue. Finally, John provided that level of comfort and firm representation that a client always desires - I felt he was committed to finding a satisfactory and fair resolution for me, irrespective of the effort involved, and spoke eloquently and comprehensively on my behalf. Thank you, counselor!

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.
