Unfortunately my Mother passed away without having a Will or any of her Estate affairs in order. Prior to my mothers passing I had never handled an Estate before. I contacted a few attorneys but didn't feel they were the right fit for all of the complications pertaining to the Estate. Some attorney's weren't even willing to take it on. A neighbor of mine (who is an attorney) suggested that I contact Mr. Andre McDonald to handle my Mothers Estate. After our initial phone consultation, I knew immediately that he was the the right fit for all that needed to be accomplished. It was around the holidays. Mr. McDonald went above and beyond the typical duties that involve getting an Estate opened. He stayed involved and was on top of every aspect regarding the Estate throughout the entire process. He followed through with getting the Estate closed in a timely fashion. Mr. McDonald was very professional and knew exactly what to do and how to handle the Estate. He was always informative and reliable. Mr. McDonald always personally returned my phone calls and my emails in a timely manner. His staff was very pleasant and a joy to work with during a very hard time in my life. He kept me up to date on anything that needed to be done. He took the time to answer any questions or concerns that I had. Dealing with the loss of a loved one is a challenge within itself but Mr. McDonald put my mind at ease. I felt comfortable and confident knowing that he was the attorney handling my Mothers Estate during a very hard and difficult ordeal. I highly recommend Mr. Andre McDonald for any and all of your Estate needs.

My 18 y/o daughter and I consulted John about her first modeling contract. He took the time to explain and educate her about the contract and highlighted some red flags for her to follow up on. He gave her good advice and I definitely came away feeling that he had her best interests in mind. Would highly recommend John and his staff, and would definitely consult him, again.

Adam Frank is an immigration lawyer I would recommend to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and honest lawyer! He has provided support to my case from the J-1 waiver to get a green card. At the first consultation, Adam exhibited a profound understanding of immigration law and a genuine commitment to my case. He took the time to carefully explain the intricacies of the process, addressing all my questions with patience and clarity. He has thought strategically and has provided solutions in challenging situations for the past five years. Even after I left Maryland, he continued to work with me. He is very reliable and client-oriented. His expertise was evident as his firm navigated the complexities of immigration and legal requirements, ensuring that all documentation was meticulously prepared and submitted on time. Also, his staff was very supportive and responsive. Thanks to their dedicated efforts, my petition application was approved smoothly. I highly recommend Adam, as he is very skilled, combining legal acumen with exceptional client care!

David has represented my company for more than 15 years. We can always count on him to be there with a cool head and excellent legal advice. He has helped us with everything from updating or creating our contracts, collecting old debt, partnership agreements, contract disputes or sometimes just a well-worded letter to help move a stick in the mud. One thing I can say about Mr. Hotes, he is always on your side the way it is needed. If we ask for fire and brimstone he will be there, if we need him to help nudge a friend, he will be there. If we need a contract to say what needs to be said but with a delicate touch, he is your attorney. I sleep well at night for two reasons, I have excellent insurance and Dave Hotes.

It could have been a timing issue, but it took 10 days and three attempts to finally connect. The day before we were to finally speak, I retained someone else who I was spoke with and had a connection. He did offer a hour consultation pro-bono, which was a nice touch, but I had retained someone already.

I needed assistance with navigating the purchase of a business I was helping to build. The case had a lot of unusual circumstances, and David expertly structured the deal so that we got what we wanted. He also helped to advise on the right things to say or not say as we closed the deal. In the end the deal took a long time, but we stayed the course and having his knowledge on my side was a huge advantage.

My experience with the PA Davis Law Office has been excellent! Ms. Davis and her team provided invaluable assistance in updating a joint custody agreement while serving overseas in the military. Navigating the complexities of military service and updating a legal custody agreement could have been incredibly challenging, but Ms. Davis and her team handled it with expertise and professionalism. I had reached out to several attorneys, but due to the unique circumstances of my case and where i was stationed, they were unable to assist. Being from Maryland, I was relieved to find that the PA Davis Law Office team had the necessary expertise as they cover the DC/MD/VA area. The initial communication was a bit challenging because of the time zone difference pertaining to the update of the case, but Ms. Sofia and the team were extremely patient and understanding, which I really appreciated. I am grateful to Ms. Davis for taking on my case and to the entire team for their dedication and support throughout the process.

Top Questions to Ask a Real Estate Lawyer
Before hiring a real estate lawyer, ask the following questions to ensure they are the right fit for your legal needs:

Ensure the lawyer has experience in the type of real estate transaction or dispute you’re facing, whether residential, commercial, or development-related. -

Experience with similar transactions or disputes can give you confidence that the lawyer knows how to handle your case. -
