Adam and his team were very professional and a pleasure to work with. The team was very thorough, took the time to explain the process and were always very responsive to my emails and phone calls. Based on my recommendation, Adam and his team have represented a couple friends. I will continue to recommend Adam for any of legal needs. Thanks Adam!

I cannot express my appreciation adequately enough for how Meyer Friedman Reed PLLC has helped our family.
Over a year ago I got a red light ticket in Dallas and Meyer Friedman Reed got it dismissed.
So when my daughter had an issue with old tickets and warrants Meyer Friedman Reed tackled them and ALL OF MY DAUGHTERS tickets were dismissed.
They have become a good friend to our family.
The most honest straightforward wonderful people is their entire firm.
The paralegals, Delilah, all the lady’s over the last few months have been incredible
I’ll never be able to thank them enough
Thank you Meyer Friedman Reed for being REAL, and the wonderful people you are

Mario at Allen Bryson, PLLC is a one-stop shop for business law. We were in need of his services with short notice and timeline to review contracts that were pretty extensive. Him and his team completed the task, and we couldn't be happier.

Mr Karns and his para-legal Rob are some of the very best in the field of military law. Mr Karns years of experience made him invaluable in defending the attack on my character. While the military is not always fair Mr Karns works hard to ensure you get a fair outcome. His professionalism, empathy, and character are among his great qualities. He was always willing to answer every question I had, and to empathize with my situation. Hiring Karns Law puts your best foot forward for your defense whether it is a Court Martial or GOMOR. Without his help I would not have been able to successfully defend myself. Thank you again Mr Karns and Rob without you I don't know if I'd have made it through.

Can’t thank Stephen and his team enough. Wasn’t looking good when I got ahold of them. They took everything and built a solid defense and saved my career. 10/10 I recommend if your in some trouble and your facing adverse actions, make that call.

Since I have never been the executor of an estate or gone through the probate process, I was clueless as to where to begin or what pitfalls to watch out for. A friend recommended Lindsey Tanner to me, and I am so glad she did. Lindsey was professional from start to finish, always ready to answer my 'dumb' questions, and returned calls and emails in a timely manner. Throughout the probate process, she gave me wise counsel. I am so glad I hired Lindsey and would highly recommend her to anyone.

Paulette Mueller made my grandmothers estate go broke, made her delinquent on her taxes (simply did not file) cancelled our homeowners insurance and accepted only roughly 8k on a full coverage 250k+ policy which has led to black mold growing in the home my grandparents built by hand making my baby very sick. Made disgusting remarks about our home upon inspection in regards to a guardianship proceeding while we remained polite and courteous despite the situation, and now, at the ripe age of 21 I am in therapy full time over the horrific consequences she and (others involved) caused that have now fallen upon my shoulders. I am utterly disappointed, and heartbroken. I will never be the same. My grandmother died in vain, under ungodly amounts of stress. May God guide Paulette to have a heart full of empathy and compassion towards her future victims. Only the Lord knows the amount of trauma and havoc she reaped on my beautiful grandmother. May God guide her to remain in a mindset of kindness, and fairness, as I wouldn’t wish this turmoil on anyone. But as my grandmother would want me to live, I forgive her. I only hope for her growth and progress in a positive direction for the future. I. Will. Never. Be. The. Same. I am gone. At the age of 21, I am now a shell of who I once was. The person that raised me from diapers, put me into college, got my first car, carried herself in such a generous and Godly manner, died in vain. May God rest her beautiful soul, because now her pain and stressors have become an everyday part of my life. The only human beings that loved me unconditionally, my grandparents(parents), are now dead and gone forever, and I am alone in this scary world. I hope Paulette can see my review as more than a mere critique but an insight to my new reality, and hopefully, some of what I said will invite a new presence of good faith to her future clients, not only for the benefit of them, but for her conscious as well. I was just a kid. God, what did we do to deserve this?

Charged my sister over 4500 to file chapter 13 when she's already lost everything in a divorce and to the IRS. Sort these reviews by lowest star and you'll find the real ones. Notice all the 5 star are written by someone who just had an initial conversation. Or never reviewed anyone until now. Or my personal favorite, a DOCTOR WHO FILED BANKRUPTCY with these guys? Look at this smart ass response to a one star review. Disgusting.

We were incredibly fortunate to have Stephanie Rhima represent my son during one of the most challenging times of his life. He was wrongfully accused of causing the tragic death of his very good friend in an unfortunate incident. The trauma he experienced from watching his friend pass away in his car, his efforts to revive her, and the overwhelming interactions with authorities were beyond anything we could have imagined. When the deceased's family filed a wrongful death lawsuit against my son, it added even more to his emotional burden.
Stephanie was not only highly professional but also deeply compassionate. She handled my son's emotional state with such sensitivity while effectively dealing with the opposing counsel, ultimately convincing them to withdraw the lawsuit. Her kindness and expertise were a source of great comfort to our family, and we are forever grateful for her advocacy. Thank you, Stephanie, for standing by my son and our family during such a difficult time.

Would not recommend. I called after searching on Google and finding an informative article on their website. The woman who answered cut me off before I even finished speaking, asked me one question and said the firm would not take my case. That’s fine, but the manner in which this woman was SO. rude. Non helpful. Another big box corporation just out for money.

Very friendly and efficient!! I've got into a motorcycle accident back in December. A friend recommended Hamilton Wingo to me, and it was the best choice to make to went with them. Sandra and Pricilla had been patient with me, listened to my requests, helped me to follow through my medical needs as well as the claim. Great communication, very clear and responsive. And Judith helped to make the closing process quicker and smoother than I've expected. Highly recommended if you are looking for a Personal Injury Law Firm for your case~

In any professional setting, particularly within the legal and correctional systems, maintaining a high standard of professionalism and courtesy is paramount. Mr. Ashford's behavior, as described, raises significant concerns given the gravity of the situation involving an inmate whose life is at stake. Unprofessional conduct and a lack of courtesy in such critical circumstances not only undermine the integrity of the legal process but also jeopardize the fair treatment and well-being of individuals relying on the system for justice and humane treatment.
When dealing with inmates, especially those facing life-threatening situations, it is crucial for all involved parties to exhibit a high degree of empathy, respect, and diligence. The stakes are incredibly high, and even minor lapses in professionalism can have devastating consequences. The behavior of Mr. Ashford, as reported, could lead to mistrust in the system and potentially hinder the inmate's access to fair representation and due process. It is essential for professionals in these roles to uphold ethical standards and ensure that every individual's rights and dignity are preserved.
Addressing such issues requires systemic accountability and continuous training for those in positions of authority. The legal and correctional systems must foster environments where respect, professionalism, and humanity are the norms. Ensuring this standard not only benefits the individuals directly involved but also upholds the broader principles of justice and equity that are foundational to a fair society..

My daughter-in-law was accused of several drug charges. She did not have any drugs she just moved money but they called it ghost dope. My daughter-in-law was in her early twenties and she didn't realize the extent of her actions On top she's still a kid The first lawyer that my son hired was a well-known attorney and he wanted an exorbitant amount of money. But we hired him anyway. Then they started talking about her getting 25 years when she had minimum involvement. So I started calling federal lawyers and I got a hold of John Teagle I spoke with him several times and he didn't understand how she was going to get 25 years minimum involvement. So we fired the other lawyer and we hired John teagle and I want you to know that was the best decision we could have ever made. He even went from getting 25 years and he ended up getting her time served and released. He is an exceptional lawyer He's very knowledgeable about the law I'm a paralegal myself and I was very impressed with his no-nonsense attitude and fighting for my daughter-in-law to the very end and he got her release with time served. If you want an excellent lawyer that will give you a chance for an excellent outcome you will hire him without a doubt he is the best lawyer that I have ever come in contact with. He is professional, he was a prosecutor for over 20 years, and now he's a defense attorney, Even the Marshalls say that he is one of the best and is a no-nonsense attorney because he does everything he can for his clients to get them the best outcome p I owe John so much for going above and beyond to make sure my daughter-in-law got most of the charges dropped. I wasn paralegal for 21 years so I met my share of attorney's and the best thing you can do is hire this attorney he will go to the mat for you. thank you very much,
Sincerely,
Robin Swinford

Marlo Cadeddu goes above and beyond for her clients. She is caring, detail oriented, and an advocate. Her knowledge and expertise are top notch, and she is always going the extra mile to make sure all bases are covered and her clients get the most professional and fair representation. She works hard and fights for her clients’ rights, and she is a superb litigator during trial. She knows how to navigate potential hurdles when preparing for trial, and she often accomplishes what some may deem next impossible, including an acquittal on 10 counts in my trial. She literally saved my life and kept me from spending my entire life in prison. She is someone any defendant should want in their corner.

These gentlemen handled my case with the upmost professionalism and were more than happy to answer any questions I had throughout the whole experience.

As someone whose life was altered by a workplace injury, I can't speak highly enough of Lyons and Simmons Law Firm. As soon as I called them, their attorneys, Chris and Stephen, showed empathy and dedication to my case.
Trying to figure out complex workplace injury law can be unnerving, but Chris and Stephen's expertise put me at ease. They led me through every step of the legal process, making sure that I understood my rights and options.
What really makes Lyons and Simmons unique is their commitment to securing the best possible outcome for their clients. They fought tirelessly on my behalf, advocating for the compensation and support I deserved. Their attention to detail and strategic approach resulted in a settlement that surpassed my expectations.
Beyond their legal skill, Chris and Stephen are caring individuals who prioritize their clients' well-being. They took the time to listen to my concerns and provided great emotional support throughout the journey.
Lyons and Simmons secured the financial compensation I needed to move forward. I am very thankful for their representation and truly recommend their services to anyone in need of legal assistance for workplace injuries.

From the moment I met with Chris and Stephen, I knew I was in good hands. They asked me to be patient and they would take care of things. I felt calm and stepped away. After some time, they called with the update followed by the final result. It was more than I expected. I never had to call for follow ups because they called with periodic updates. I have made some new friends Uptown for sure. I highly recommend the team.

I handle many properties for my foundation and had occasion to need a lawyer in Dallas to settle an estate and sell a home there working from Wilmington NC I was expecting complications.
Elliot and his assistant were absolutely on it from the start and helped me settle in almost half the time I have in other transactions.
Elliot dots the I and crosses the T's like no one else I have ever dealt with, even the big firms we have had on retainer have been very disappointing in how they handled the cases and the very expensive fees to do simple work.
I would highly recommend Elliott and his staff for any transactions you may need representation for they are both honest and efficient in my dealings with them.

We were incredibly fortunate to have Stephanie Rhima represent my son during one of the most challenging times of his life. He was wrongfully accused of causing the tragic death of his very good friend in an unfortunate incident. The trauma he experienced from watching his friend pass away in his car, his efforts to revive her, and the overwhelming interactions with authorities were beyond anything we could have imagined. When the deceased's family filed a wrongful death lawsuit against my son, it added even more to his emotional burden.
Stephanie was not only highly professional but also deeply compassionate. She handled my son's emotional state with such sensitivity while effectively dealing with the opposing counsel, ultimately convincing them to withdraw the lawsuit. Her kindness and expertise were a source of great comfort to our family, and we are forever grateful for her advocacy. Thank you, Stephanie, for standing by my son and our family during such a difficult time.

What a Probate Lawyer Can Do for You
A probate lawyer assists with the legal process of administering a deceased person’s estate. This often involves guiding executors (if a will exists) or beneficiaries (if no will exists) through the probate process to settle the estate according to the deceased’s wishes or applicable laws. Probate lawyers can help validate the will, distribute assets, resolve disputes among heirs, handle outstanding debts or taxes, and ensure the estate is legally and efficiently administered.
Whether you’re an executor of an estate or an heir facing probate proceedings, a probate lawyer can help you navigate the often-complex legal process to ensure the estate is settled correctly.
When Should I Hire a Probate Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a probate lawyer when you are responsible for managing the estate of a deceased individual, especially in the following situations:
- The estate has substantial assets: If the estate includes significant assets like real estate, investments, or business interests, legal assistance is often necessary to handle the distribution properly.
- The will is being contested: If there are disputes among heirs regarding the validity of the will or the division of assets, a probate lawyer can help resolve the conflict.
- The estate includes complex or unclear provisions: If the will contains complicated instructions or there are no clear beneficiaries, a lawyer can ensure that the estate is administered according to legal requirements.
- There is no will (intestate estate): When a person dies without a will, the estate is subject to intestacy laws, which determine how assets are distributed. A probate lawyer can help navigate this process.
- Debt or tax issues exist: If the estate owes significant debts or is subject to estate taxes, a probate lawyer can help ensure debts are paid appropriately and taxes are minimized.
- Probate disputes: If family members or other parties are disputing the distribution of assets or challenging the executor's actions, legal representation is crucial to defending your rights and ensuring the estate is handled properly.
Hiring a probate lawyer early in the process can help avoid costly mistakes and ensure the estate is settled efficiently.
What Does a Probate Lawyer Do?
A probate lawyer provides a wide range of legal services to help manage and settle an estate. Their tasks can include:
- Validating the will: Filing the will with the probate court and ensuring its legal validity.
- Guiding executors or administrators: Advising the person responsible for managing the estate on their duties, including inventorying assets, notifying creditors, and paying debts.
- Filing necessary paperwork: Preparing and submitting the legal documents required to initiate and complete the probate process.
- Resolving disputes: Mediating or litigating disputes among heirs or between beneficiaries and executors, including challenges to the will or disagreements over asset distribution.
- Handling debt and tax matters: Ensuring that outstanding debts, taxes, and estate taxes are properly calculated and paid from the estate’s assets.
- Distributing assets: Ensuring that assets are distributed to the beneficiaries according to the will or intestacy laws, and that all legal requirements are fulfilled.
- Closing the estate: Completing the final steps of the probate process, including filing a final accounting with the court and formally closing the estate.
How Are Probate Lawyers Paid?
Probate lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the estate and the nature of the legal work involved. Common payment structures include:
- Hourly rate: Most probate lawyers charge by the hour, with rates depending on the lawyer’s experience and the complexity of the estate. Hourly rates can range from $150 to $500 or more.
- Flat fee: For simple estates or straightforward probate tasks, some lawyers may charge a flat fee that covers all of the necessary legal work.
- Percentage of the estate: In some states, probate lawyers are allowed to charge a percentage of the estate's value as their fee. This percentage typically ranges from 2% to 5%, depending on the size of the estate and state regulations.
- Retainer fee: Some lawyers may require an upfront retainer fee, which is billed against as the probate process progresses.
It’s important to clarify the fee structure during your initial consultation to understand how you will be charged and avoid unexpected costs.
How Much Does a Probate Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a probate lawyer depends on several factors, including the complexity of the estate, the type of legal issues involved, and the lawyer’s fee structure. General cost estimates include:
- Simple estates: For estates with straightforward assets and no disputes, probate legal fees can range from $2,500 to $10,000, depending on the lawyer's fees and the state's probate laws.
- Complex estates: For larger or more complicated estates with multiple properties, business interests, or disputes, probate costs can exceed $10,000 and may reach $20,000 or more.
- Hourly rates: If charged by the hour, expect rates between $150 and $500, depending on the lawyer’s expertise and geographic location.
- Percentage fees: In some cases, a probate lawyer may charge 2% to 5% of the estate’s value, particularly for larger estates or those involving complex legal matters.
Always ask for a clear estimate of fees during your initial consultation to understand the total cost of probate representation.
Top Questions to Ask a Probate Lawyer
Before hiring a probate lawyer, it’s essential to ask the right questions to ensure you’re hiring someone qualified to handle your estate needs. Key questions include:
-
What experience do you have with probate cases like mine?
Ensure the lawyer has experience with estates of similar complexity, especially if disputes or high-value assets are involved. -
How do you charge for your services?
Ask whether the lawyer charges an hourly rate, a flat fee, or a percentage of the estate, and request a cost estimate. -
What is the likely timeline for my probate case?
While it’s hard to predict exactly, an experienced lawyer can give you a general idea of how long the probate process may take based on the specifics of your estate. -
What steps will you take to manage and distribute the estate?
Ask about the lawyer’s approach to handling debts, taxes, and asset distribution. -
Will you be handling my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle some aspects of your case, so it’s important to know who will be working on your probate case. -
What are potential challenges we may face?
A good lawyer will be able to anticipate possible issues, such as will contests or creditor claims, and explain how they would handle them.
How to Check the Credibility of a Probate Lawyer
To ensure you’re hiring a reputable probate lawyer, follow these steps to check their credentials and experience:
- Verify their state bar status: Check with your state’s bar association to confirm the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary action.
- Look for probate experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in probate law and have experience handling estates of similar complexity.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for online reviews on platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell to see what past clients have said about the lawyer’s probate experience.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who can vouch for their professionalism and expertise in handling probate matters.
- Look for membership in professional organizations: Membership in organizations like the American Academy of Estate Planning Attorneys (AAEPA) or the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys (NAELA) can indicate a lawyer's commitment to estate and probate law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with a probate lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- A copy of the will or trust (if applicable): Bring any estate planning documents left by the deceased, including wills, trusts, or powers of attorney.
- List of assets and debts: Prepare a detailed list of the deceased’s assets (e.g., real estate, bank accounts, investments) and outstanding debts (e.g., loans, mortgages, credit cards).
- Death certificate: Bring a certified copy of the deceased person’s death certificate.
- Contact information for heirs and beneficiaries: Have a list of all individuals or entities named in the will or who are entitled to inherit under intestacy laws.
- Questions about the probate process: Write down any questions you have about the process, costs, and potential issues you might face.
- Relevant financial records: If available, bring any relevant financial documents, such as bank statements, property deeds, and tax returns.
By coming prepared, you can ensure a productive consultation and allow the lawyer to provide the best advice for your situation.
