I hired Mr Farwell about 8 years ago to try and help me recoup the great loss I incurred as a result of a home builder who did not complete my home as contracted ... Mr Farwell easily won my case against the builder, and a large judgment was awarded .... but capturing the funds awarded by the judgment would be the hard part ... Mr Farwell provided great advice and took the steps necessary to help make sure we did as much as prudently possible to secure the funds at some point in the future ... That future occurred today, when I received a settlement check to recoup what I had lost plus a fair amount of interest .... a result of the wise steps Mr Farwell took 8 years ago to secure the judgment proceeds ... Based on my personal experience, I would refer Mr Farwell with great confidence to anyone needing help with real estate law ...

I consulted with Mr. Nash on an intellectual property matter. He was very informative and went out of his way to make sure we / he had covered very avenue to help me. Then when he found out I was an artist, and had a business painting ceiling murals for children's hospitals as well as fine art, he told me so much on how to protect my art. I've never forgotten how professional and intelligent, as well as nice, he was to me. He literally spent at least an hour with me, it was well worth the money! I highly recommend Mr. Nash.

We are a top fortune 500 company and have retained the services of Troy Glander for over four years. He has handled nearly 200 large exposure property/facilities damage matters for our company. After internal attempts to resolve these claims were exhausted these claims were referred to him to pursue seeking reimbursement from third parties who had caused the damage. His incredibly hard work in establishing a strong factual foundation along with effective communication with the adverse parties allowed for favorably resolving over 85 percent of these matters prior to instituting litigation. His attention to detail and in depth understanding of the background and events associated with each claim contributed to these pre-litigation settlements. The cost savings realized by not having to bring suit were very considerable. For those matters that litigation was instituted he was aggressive, completely prepared and professional throughout the pendency of the actions. He has exceptional analytical and writing skills and has produced well researched and compelling legal and factual arguments. He has a keen ability to be able to process large volumes of information quickly and formulate an effective strategy for each case. His skill at taking and defending depositions is unsurpassed. His preparation of witnesses is extremely thorough and due to his attention to every detail there are never any surprises. He has elicited critical testimony which has led to open dialog with adversaries and favorable settlements being reached earlier than anticipated.
His is always extremely respectful toward all of the corporate clients and always interacts professionally. He is extremely personable and easily gains the trust of all of the clients with whom he works. He communicates possible and probable outcomes, discusses goals and strategies and always provides appropriate and timely updates. Through lessons learned he has shared his views on possible improvements to various business practices and those suggestions have been very well received. He has created a true partnership and he is committed to advancing the best interests of his client in every way.

I hired Dan to provide legal representation for me a few years ago. The matter was overwhelming for me. Dan provided excellent service and took the time to carefully explain all details of the case. He was always available to answer questions and went out of his way to calm my concerns. I cannot thank Dan and his staff enough for all of their hard work to make sure all angles of the case were examined and covered. His experience in civil and personal injury matters was invaluable.

Since 1997, my brothers and I have owned a series of companies ranging from a Texas licensed Retail Electric Provider (current), Texas licensed Wireless Telecom Provider (current), and Texas real estate investment company (current) among many other business through the years. We have had a relationship with Elliott and the folks at his firm since 2000. Elliott is a very trustworthy attorney and his team of associates always give us very sound advice. Through the years, we have had to file suits against others for wrong doings, which is never a task I recommend taking on unless one must with not other choice left. With that said, the team led by Elliott have never let us down. We as a business act ethically, but nevertheless have had some run ins with unethical people. Through the help of Elliott and his firm, we have been able to prevail through all of these situations with acceptable outcomes. More importantly, the team of lawyers have been able to give us sound advice along the way that allowed us to shape our businesses and not repeat past mistakes in business. We truly feel that our business outcome to this point would not have been possible without the help of Elliott and his esteemed colleagues. I would highly recommend the use of the firm and more specifically Elliott Cappuccio himself. He is fair with his billing practices and provides very good value for the money spent.

Having been an employee of Mr. Leach for slightly more than a year at this writing I can attest to his sense of responsibility to "do the right thing" by his clients. I see it from the insiders viewpoint. (Note: He is not aware that I am writing and is not the type to give a raise due to something like this or favor me for anything I say.....so I have no financial gains or incentives to be had in writing, other than a desire to express the truth when I saw that I am given this opportunity). Over the course of a 40 year career, I have associated with hundreds of attorneys thru a former business. I'm met some very impressive attorneys and I count Mr. Leach as being an exceptional attorney amongst that number. His trial preparation is superb, I am aware that he is often consulted by other attorneys, and I personally admire and respect him for his character and high degree of integrity. If I had a legal issue that required an attorney I would hope he would take the case. Thank you for providing this forum for speaking out on what we know and believe about attorney's. A valuable service, because it is difficult to determine by looking in the phone directory or at online listings who might be trustworthy and work hard for us on our legal matters.

I cannot say enough good things about Clepper Harrison & Duffy PLLC. From start to finish, I experienced the upmost professionalism and compassion. I ended every interaction with confidence and certainty. At the end of every call, Chanda and I both had clear expectations on what to do next--I had my tasks, she had hers, and every time we followed up, we were on the same page. She and her team are highly prepared, proficient, prompt, and consistent. I appreciated that the billing information was explained so well that I never felt like I had to wonder how much things were going to cost. I was billed on the 1st and the 15th of every month, and I personally loved that consistency. Although I have never worked with attorneys before, my personal opinion was that their fees were extremely fair and honest. Each bill had a running record of every item they completed, with times, dates, and explanations. I loved their practicality of providing phone calls and zoom calls, rather than meeting in person. My whole divorce was handled over phone calls/zooms and I never had to step foot into a court room. Although everyone's experience is different, I was able to complete an amicable, uncontested divorce that was finalized in just over 60 days. Without the help of Chanda and her team, there is no way I would have been able to do this on my own. I was very pleased with my outcome, which is astounding that I am even writing this sentence, because I am a person who never thought divorce was an option. If you're reading this and feel as though you have gotten to the point where divorce is now your only option, know that you will be fully taken care of by Clepper Harrison & Duffy PLLC.

James Reeves is an excellent attorney. He represented me during my one and only divorce; he worked hard and continued to stop me from offering up the "farm". Everything worked out as expected, though, I far exceeded with the final outcome with regard to vehicles, home and currency. I highly recommend defendants obtain James' legal service, he is an extremely competent, and experienced trial Lawyer. Did I say he is also an honest man; in closing, I would say James Reeves can handle any type of case, I wouldn't expect any problems securing his service for a Murder case or DWI and expect to come out on top everytime.

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.
