Dan is an exceptional lawyer, with a vast degree of knowledge. He has helped me on multiple projects from setting up and structuring an entity to getting property deeded into my name. He is very meticulous, and is always looking out for the best interest of his clients. I feel more comfortable when I have Dan working on a deal for me.

Dan was very good with us very understanding and he always stayed in touch with us through this whole process. My particular case was very frustrating because they would continually string the case out, but he really stayed with it and I was so glad he was my attorney. I would definitely use him again and strongly recommend him for anything.

We had a great experience having our Trust and Will done by Mr. McKenna. He was extremely thorough with the process and answered every little and big question we had to ensure our wishes were all made clear in our legal documents. We feel relieved to have finally worked on this important step for our young family. In fact, our fourth child was born the evening we signed our Trust documents! A fun day to remember!

Everything went smoothly from the submission of application , to interview and then to oath ceremony. He reviewed with me the citizenship questions and even went to the interview which I truly appreciate. I will definitely recommend him to my friends and colleagues who may need an immigration lawyer.

Clay Alger was instrumental in resolving my complex immigration case that seemed endless. With his innovative approach, he swiftly brought the matter to a successful conclusion. What stood out the most, however, was his exceptional personal attention. Clay didn’t just see me as another case number; he went the extra mile by attending a meeting during the height of COVID-19—an act of support that I deeply appreciated. His follow-up after the case was equally impressive, reinforcing his dedication and genuine care. Clay made me feel valued, and his personal touch did not go unnoticed. I highly recommend him for his professionalism and heartfelt commitment to his clients.

Reed rescued me from a very legal situation that began when my ex wife refused to pay the debt she incurred by stealing my identity and then not making the payments on the credit cards she had gotten in my name. She agreed to pay these in our divorce decree. After almost 20 years of attempted garnishment of my income, he ended this for me, and brought me closure. Case closed. He's amazing! After being told by several attorneys that I had no hope of ever having these stop, he had them stopped in a very short time, and now I have peace knowing they will never come after me again for debt that was never mine to begin with. I would recommend him to anyone. He's very kind, understanding, and thinks outside of the box.

This was my first time sueing anyone and I was very nervous. When we first met in person, Jim took the time to explain my options (including walking out and moving on with my life). I understood my options fully and I was very appreciative. When I got my first invoice, I was pleasantly surprised. He was very efficient with his time and even though he did a lot, the invoice amount was a lot less than I anticipated. I think this is partly because he talks very fast and always gets straight to the point. He is definitely not chit-chatty, which is a great trait when you are paying by the hour. He really doesn’t mess around and his experience helped move things forward as quickly as anyone possibly can in the situation. I highly recommend Jim, and I interviewed several attorneys before I decided to go with him. I felt good about him before hiring, and I felt great about hiring him after my experience with his services.

Mr. Dunn is a no-nonsense attorney. He gets right to the point and doesn't waist your time or money. We've used Mr. Dunn as our corporate attorney for most of our 40 year history. We've used him for non compete cases, employee discrimination, collections, contracts and many other cases. We've had favorable outcomes in most all cases. He is always responsive. Rarely do I find that we have to wait more than a day to get a response, which isn't typical in the legal world. He applies common sense in all maters, and most of all, I find his judgement to be sound. He speaks in terms that the lay person can understand. I highly recommend Mr. Dunn.

Had a credit union mistakenly apply my payment 2 days later than I should have missing my statement and date. They said they fixed the mistake and I will see this correction on my next statement but the issue is it was reported to the bureaus with wrong amount prior to them correcting this. The amount is over $16k so this is making a huge impact on my credit score/utilization/total balances and ability to get approved for new credit. Well, I fixed my credit and got rid off my debts with the help of PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST whom a trusted friend recommended and he did a perfect job increasing my credit score to (801 TransUnion, 805 Experian, 807 Equifax) all credit card debts are marked as paid, public record, bankruptcy and hard inquiries are all gone. I’m so happy. I refer this great hacker to those who have a fixed date to fix their credit profile. Text PINNACLE ON +1 (585) 466 4373. Tell them Tricia Walton Referred you.

I was in serious trouble. My ex wife's very powerful family from the FLDS cult wanted me out of the way so they could get custody of my kids (they had inherited some money). He knew the stakes and right when they were playing their worst game, my kid's lives would have been destroyed, he drove 5 hours from Salt Lake to the not-so-above-board jurisdiction and fought for me in person. He and his partner worked brilliantly together. It was a miracle. I am still under the gun, but 5 years down the line Zach has managed to work the system (even though they are willing to cheat to get me) as well as anyone could. We are fighting some very powerful and less than integral forces. I am thrilled I had Zach on my side. Hire him immediately.

I contacted William through email for a consultation on probate, he gladly set up an appointment for me the following week. He was very knowledgeable in this area and provided me with the necessary information I needed regarding my mothers estate. We came to the conclusion that I most likely will not need to go through Probate so I did not need to hire him but It was a pleasure talking with him. I would certainly recommend. Thank very much William I appreciate what you did.

They say three times a charm. I was involved in a slip and fall in Utah however I live in the state of New York. I was required to be represented by an attorney in Utah. That made things extremely hard . Trusting people you never met and just holding on to their words. I had two previous attorney's who just didn't want to put the work in and kept using the fact that where I lived made things harder. After they both dropped me I called around and came across Gabriel. I knew after the first conversation he meant business. Was this case going to be a challenge bc of living across the country and depending on zoom calls due to the pandemic yes but him and his team proved to me that they were in it for the long hall. I admired the way he looked at this case. He was always confident, honest and knew how to speak to me when things would got difficult. My past experiences with my attorneys I always felt they were against me. Gabriel always put things into perspective in a professional way. Finally after 2 yrs we all met in person due to the pandemic. It was such a relief to finally put the face with voice. I can go on and on , he is professional, empathetic and will not back down until your satisfied. Thank you for everything you did for me!!!

Gabriel is a 10 star attorney. I have been searching for help with a troublesome situation I encountered with the University Neuropsychiatric Institute, Mobile Crisis Team. Gabriel was not like the other lawyers who I had brief phone conversations with. Gabriel gave great attention to the matter I proposed to him, and discussed with me the possibilities. He didn’t feel however that he could take my case, but left me feeling a level of comfort I have not received from the various attorneys. Thank you Gabriel for being a caring person, kind hearted and so professional! Oh, how we need more individuals in this field of practice who treat others as you do.

I have worked with many attorneys. Most work well, bill semi-honestly and most are afraid to go to trial. Gabe is one of the few attorneys I have worked with that has no hesitation pushing issues through to trial. There is not a glimpse of intimidation where most attorneys will do whatever it takes to avoid the complexities of litigation and trial work. That being said, if it is in a clients best interest, Gabe will settle and avoid trial but he has no fear. He is aggressive and will get you the results you would expect from a high profile law firm without the high profile law firm prices. I would recommend Gabe to anyone for anything, but especially for litigation/PI and Medical Malpractice issues. I have not had to use Gabe for medical malpractice or personal injury issues for myself but I have referred people who did and they were very happy.

I also had his law firm help me with my Will. When my Will was completed I felt nothing but peace Knowing that my family would be protected when I pass.

There hasn't been a moment in the last year when I ever questioned if Andrew was working hard for me, Andrew has not only worked hard for us, but with us, accepting suggestion, giving suggestions, collaborating with me the whole way. He listens, He is not prideful, He is compassionate about each of his client's troubles and will give you 100 percent of his effort. I know his heart is for us and that is why I chose to stay with Andrew Rawlings. He knows his skill, He works well with others, he searches for knowledge and information he might not know so much about so that he can be the best attorney he can be for his clients. I trust Andrew with the future of our family. Being where I am today, there is no one else I trust more to help me fight for that which I value above all else. Thank you Andrew.

He took the time to really hear out my situation and explain to me what could be done. He truly cares about his clients and I would definitely recommend his services to anybody that is in a bad situation and is needing a sincere and genuine lawyer that truly cares. He is that to go to Guy. Great lawyer and I am 100% happy with his services. Thanks again Jarred!

His response time is quick with concise communication which was important to me as I’ve never dealt with filing a personal injury claim before and didn’t know how the process worked. I can comfortably say I think we took the best course of action after my car accident last year and I don’t feel as though I have any remaining unanswered questions or doubts on the results. I received a very respectable settlement and most importantly, I got the treatment that I needed to tend to my injuries through a high quality rehab center all thanks to Ron and the entire team at Truman and Radford Injury Attorneys.

Lincoln Hobbs was recommended to me by another lawyer so I contacted him when I was most stressed by an employment dilemma. I was able to see him within 24 hours of contacting his office. During the one hour meeting with him, he provided a path forward and before I even got home from the meeting, he had prepared and emailed a draft letter to me that would ultimately be sent to my former employer. Even though I was completely overwhelmed by my situation, Lincoln always remained calm and provided the most excellent service. He kept me involved in the process and provided options for me at every decision point. When it finally came to mediation, Lincoln very patiently sat with me for 10 hours and kept me in the loop of his every move and strategy. Not only did he exude professionalism and knowledge of his practice, he was conscious of how stressful this was for me and tried to keep things light and friendly. In summary, I would hire Lincoln for any legal trouble that I may find myself in. He was honest, professional, and very cost effective considering how much time he spent with me on the phone and in person. Lincoln defies the typical attorney reputation and I was and am proud to have his representation,

Lincoln Hobbs is the best attorney I could have chosen for my case. The case he worked on for me was very complicated, and we went to jury trial. Lincoln won the jury trial with 100% of the jurors voting for us! He acted to the letter of the law, making sure we had every advantage. Lincoln is very intelligent and he doesn't let anything slip by him - he never misses a beat. I recommend him, as he's the absolute top in his field. He's a fantastic attorney! As I learned - you should always have the best in the industry, and he is certainly the BEST!

It is an honor to recommend Lincoln Hobbs, a member of Hobbs and Olson LC, as well as his entire firm. I have been actively involved with many aspects of the legal system since 1977 and find him to be an ideal attorney; preferring to negotiate a settlement when advisable, yet extremely skilled in the courtroom if necessary. At the onset of our relationship he researched the other party to determine the viability of my case in an effort to save me money and personal anguish. He has since repeatedly demonstrated this balance of personal concern and professional skill, while maintaining high moral standards in what is a very dirty legal battle spanning over many years. And even though I was initially the defendant, the other party’s case was quickly dismissed, and I received a multi-million dollar award, as the defendant and counter-claimant.

I had Gaven return suit against my bad brother who rented my home for 22 years. He claimed that the rent payments were made toward a verbal rent to own agreement. When he saw that I was caught in the Houston Flood where I live as a disabled veteran near the VA hospital. He, knowing that being financially ruined by the flood, I was not likely to be able to answer the Utah lawsuit within the 30 day stipulation or loose the home. Gaven Wenzel went right to work and after the Bias Judges proved their bias through discovery and evidentiary hearings, proved to outwit all of them. And I sold the home while my evil brother’s attorney Parkinson’s inability to focus, allowed the open window to jump through. Gaven is wildly good.

Attorney Marlon Bates went above and beyond in advising me and drafting an agreement to modify and modification to easement for my house purchase and I'm 100% sure I would not have been able to go through buying my first house without his help. This was my first every need for an attorney, so I found Marlon through just the regular online search. After sending inquiry to over half dozen attorneys I found, Marlon was the very first to respond with immediate availability. He spent more than an hour on our consultation call, providing more than I was hoping to learn and get advice on the my easement situation. He left on a family vacation the week after but he was still very responsive to my questions and when I decided to move forward with the house with only left few days till diligence deadline, he was able to provide me with the perfect agreement and easement modification draft that I needed to close on my house with a peace of mind. In addition, he was able to clearly outline the risks and the steps that I needed to know and take to fully implement the contract and the modification. Buying my first house with easement issues was a very scary decision and I would have never gone through buying this house if it wasn't for the reassuring consultation and the contracts and modification drafts that Marlon provided. I would go through this all over again with his help. Ultimately, I ended up with a better term on the house and more favorable modifications to the easement than I would have initially accepted on the house.

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.
