I was represented by Ray & Bishop. I almost lost everything especially 6 years of nursing school during this time my father had a TIA, car repossessed and I was without work and couldn’t pay my bills. I would recommend Mr. Bishop who knew I was innocent and understood the legal complexities of my case. While it was a long waiting period I can now get back to my career and dust myself off to begin a new. Thank you Mr. Bishop for everything! DNM

I was searching for a licensed defense attorney in California that specialized specifically in defending nurses against accusations from BVNPT/BRN and came across Ray & Bishop, PLC through a google search. I read reviews that former clients have posted about their representation and also looked up their webpage online. I decided to take a leap of faith after reviewing their reviews, website, and blog and seeing the successful comments and how satisfied clients who were represented by Ray & Bishop, PLC. were. I was dealing with a criminal matter that was dismissed but later was picked up by BVNPT and was sent an accusation that my license was being investigated and that they wanted to discipline me based on these allegations. The process from when the incident occurred to posting an accusation was approximately 5 years. Long story short, I was assigned to Mr. John Bishop regarding my matter with the boards and he was attentive, knowledgeable, matter of fact, understanding, straight forward, and responsive in answering my never ending questions and concerns. He was genuinely concerned and was available via email and by phone. Even though he was busy he would return my emails/calls promptly. Luckily, my case did not have to go through an administrative hearing and after 5 months I received the most wonderful news I could have ever asked for “accusation withdrawn” Words can’t express how grateful and relieved I am that this nightmare was finally resolved and I can finally move on. I can’t thank Mr. Bishop enough for his representation and how successful he was with his communication with BVNPT and ultimately avoiding any discipline against my license and not having to attend a hearing. I can say without reservations that if you are facing your license against being disciplined, please give Ray & Bishop, PLC. a call and do not hesitate to seek their consultation and representation.

I received a discipline in another state and California immediately followed suit. During trial, I did my best in answering the prosecutor’s questions. John would then ask me questions that further clarified my answers so that my answers could not be misinterpreted. I truly appreciate John. He allowed me the opportunity to tell my truth and helped save my career. God forbid that I ever be in this situation again; but if so, I wouldn’t hesitate to rehire him again and again. Thanks so much John!

I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional legal representation I received from Mr.Smith. With Facing multiple charges for crimes I did not commit was a harrowing experience, but he provided unwavering support and expertise throughout the entire process. From our first consultation, Mr.Smith demonstrated a deep understanding of the law and a genuine commitment to my case. He was meticulously and thorough through out this whole process. In addition to their legal acumen, he was always approachable and communicative, ensuring that I was informed and reassured at every step. Their professionalism and empathy provided immense comfort during a very difficult time. Within me hiring him and in less than two weeks my charges were dropped , he did exactly what was needed to be done with showing evidence of my innocence and making sure the state had all the correct facts to have my case dropped. I wholeheartedly recommend James Wesley Smith III to anyone in need of a dedicated and highly skilled defense attorney. Their dedication to justice and client well-being is truly unparalleled. Thank you for restoring my faith in the legal system and helping me reclaim my life.

Marshall's way of handling things makes you feel as if you are truly discussing things with a good friend who happens to be an attorney. Relaxed atmosphere anytime you meet with him. Discusses details with you so that you can understand what is going on in the confusing process of filing/settling a Disability Claim. He will get the job done, and you won't feel intimidated at all by being with an attorney! Marshall works with you all the way through the process.

It wasn't until I saw how he organized my medical history that I realized how much work really went into our case. He did such a good job that the Judge didn't even take the time to do the final hearing. Marshall definitely has a sense of humor and obviously knows what he is doing. It was a long process and I didn't get approved till the third appeal... but that sounds like how the system is set up. My only complaint is that he can be a fast talker sometimes which says more about my cognition. At the end of the day he got me a fully favorable decision and had more faith in my case than even I did.

After more than 8 years fighting unsuccessfully to win my disability claim, I was blessed to meet Attorney Cornell. Often times veterans are not capable of obtaining the best representation to assist them in applying for benefits; this was my situation. However, with the help of Attorney Cornell, my battle is over. She won my claim. Additionally, beyond being a great legal practitioner, my health was always a major concern she made sure was being taken care of. Not only is Attorney Cornell a winner, she is an individual that cares about your well-being. I encourage all individuals to utilize her services.

I had to resign from the post office because it was getting too difficult for me to work with my knees. I had already had surgery on one knee and it wasn't quite right. I was depressed and my anxiety level was through the roof by the time I found him online. Thank God for finding him. I really didn't think he would be able to help me, because I lived in MO. I noticed on reviews that he took on many people from all over the US. I could even ask people who had hired him before, for reference. I liked that he doesn't charge an hourly rate. I personally like to know up front what something is going to cost me and that is how he does it. I couldn't of done this without him. I'm glad he was on my side. I recommend Robert to anyone who is trying to get federal disability retirement.

Every once in awhile, there's a person that comes along that raises the bar so far above everyone else by their knowledge, expertise, and client interaction that they become the example for others to try and follow - Stephen Stamboulieh IS the one that has raised that bar. He was made for this. I have never had an attorney spend the time, dedication and building a personal relationship with a client like he does. In my opinion his characteristics are unmatched and I am blessed and honored to have had him at the "captains wheel" of my case. His diligence and determination changed my life for which I'll be forever grateful. Forget the rest, get the BEST, and that person i Stephen Stamboulieh

Stephen took my case when other attorneys refused. It was a case against a highly political entity in Mississippi who have many, many attorneys on “outside” retainers. This prevents them from representing a person bringing suit against the entity. Stephen had no qualms about taking my case. I must say he fought a great fight for me and we did claim victory in my case, although the specific details can’t be discussed. I highly recommend Stephen Stamboulieh as an attorney should anyone need representation. In my opinion, he is the ABSOLUTE BEST attorney you could hire to represent your interests!

Mr. Grover Baxley, I am relieved as much as I am impressed with your hard work and dedication to this case. Here is my review: This was a false positive urinalysis case. I consulted Mr. Grover Baxley briefly over the phone. He knew which questions to ask, and gave advice even before the retainer fee was paid. At this point, he was polite, professional, but also detail-oriented on initial questioning. He outlined the lengthy military legal process, as well as his fee schedule. On paying the retainer fee, Mr. Baxley gave clear instructions on the items needed from me, including a rather detailed "Love Me" document -- basically a binder of my entire life including disciplinary actions, CVs, and accomplishments/awards. Mr. Grover Baxley will work behind the scenes. For some people, at times, you may feel as though there is no progress in the case, and that this is all a test of patience. However, and especially on discovery of evidence, Mr. Baxley will be prepared to cross-examine -- will be prepared to use even the government's own witnesses. If you have an engaged Area Defense Counsel team, this will make your defense even stronger. Mr. Baxley will call occasionally for updates, to clarify information, and to schedule conference calls for larger updates. In my case, Mr. Baxley arrived in the area the week before a scheduled trial. I was able to meet Mr. Baxley in person at this time, and we were able to discuss the upcoming process in depth. I was assured that my defense team was as prepared as it could be. Mr. Baxley engaged the courtroom during the trial. He strategically cross-examined and was careful with his questioning. And his closing arguments evoked in me emotions I'm sure I shared with some jury members. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication to this case. You were blessed with an important gift in life -- a much-needed voice of defense for our service members across the country. Good luck in the rest of your journey, and give my best to your family.

If you’re where I was just 7 months ago, you’re in a bad spot, with your career, reputation, and everything else you’ve worked your butt off for in jeopardy. I searched for the BEST military lawyer upon being notified of an allegation of a positive urinalysis result for marijuana. Having never done the drug my entire life, and knowing the government wanted to bring charges against me, I knew I faced an uphill battle and long road ahead. I submitted a form, giving a brief synopsis on what I was up against, and Grover quickly called me back. Right away, I knew I had found my lawyer to defend me as I navigated this nightmare of a process. Today, I type this with an immense amount of relief, as Grover successfully won the BOI, convincing the panel members their claims were UNSUBSTANTIATED and that I had committed NO MISCONDUCT! Being accused of something you know you didn’t do, and coming to terms with something that can have devastating, lifelong implications is horrifying, but Grover never faltered as the government made every attempt at kicking me out. This man is worth triple his price and is worth his weight in gold. The joy and relief I feel, after being able to put this all behind me is simply indescribable. I don’t think it’s fully settled in yet that I can now put all this in my rear view mirror, and move forward with my career, along with my reputation and dignity in tact. If you’re being charged, then you need to fight back. Not tomorrow, not now, but YESTERDAY!!! Don’t hesitate to hire Grover so he can start fighting back. He’s easily the best military lawyer, and the way he shoots the prosecution down is simply a work of art. I owe Grover my life and am forever indebted to him. The road wasn’t easy, or quick, but as I lay here and give hope to others who find themselves in the same place I was back in March, I assure you that Grover is THE MAN for the job. Thank you for everything Grover. I’ll never forget you and words simply cannot describe how grateful I am for all your amazing work.

I contacted Mr. Baxley in February of 2022 after a positive urinalysis result. Not knowing how this result came to be I knew I needed an expert. I have 12 years of honorable service (active and guard) with no history of ever being in trouble. Mr. Baxley commanded the board room and after two days of the hearing, the final result was no misconduct, retained in the Air National Guard. Now I can continue to serve until retirement. If you are in need of an expert, Mr. Baxley is your guy.

Constant contact, constant updates.....Very detail oriented, specific, highly knowledgeable and persistant. He told me on day 1, after reviewing my VA medical records that I would eventually be awarded. He was right. My case just NEEDED a Judges review and Hearing. His preparatory brief that was submitted to the Judge in advance of my Hearing was what won the case (that came directly from the Judge's mouth to my ears upon entering the Hearing). No questions were even asked of me in the Hearing; his summary Brief spelled it all out for the Judge. Immediate Awarding with 2 years BackPay. I cant thank Cia enough. Never ever go it alone.

James or Jimmy has worked on a numerous of my cases with amazing outcomes. One thing that stood out to me was how understanding and down to earth he is. During one of my cases which was a couple years ago. I was a reckless and broke college kid and he arranged a very reasonable payment plan for me. To this day I can’t thank him enough for that . I’ve known James close to 4 years and I know this review is long over due. But James is someone who cares more about the outcome of your case than the money involved, which is very rare these days. I laughed reading the reviews talking about how well known he is at the courthouse. Which I can tell you none are fabricated. In my case was able to meet the judge in private and the first thing the judge says to me was “ You are lucky I like this guy”. From then on I knew this was my guy. Thankfully I don’t have to reach out to him much anymore but all I can say is this man right here changed my life.

Who would you want to better retain then a guy that has worked on both sides. I recommend him to anyone. I have referred James on more than one occasion.

Courtney went above and beyond to help my son with his child visitation case. She came in on her day off , during pandemic when the opposing counsel pulled a shady court order. She immediately handled the situation and with good results. My son's case was a tough case and ended with good results without even having to go to trial. She is worth every penny and then some. She will fight for the rights of her client and any children to the fullest. I would highly recommend her and definitely seek her help again if needed.

When I made the decision to modify custody for my daughter I knew it was going to take a GREAT attorney to make it happen. I was told Courtney Hull was the woman I wanted, and boy was that information correct! Courtney is an amazing attorney who is passionate about what she does, I felt like like she was more than just my attorney but a friend! She did everything in her power to help my case and I ended up with joint custody, 50 50 after signing sole custody over to my childs father and after not seeing my child for a year. Almost unheard of right? Yet Courtney made it happen. Custody cases are always hard and your esentially putting your life in your attorneys hands which is a scary thing, but I promise you Courtney is a must you can trust! She cares and does everything she can in her power and in a timely manner. I will forever be greatful for her and Twiford Law.

I hired Mr Williams over 8 years ago for an ESC case. He did an AWESOME job and won my case hands downs!! He also remembered exactly who I was, when I consulted him recently about a new case. Although I did not win my case, Mr Williams went above and beyond what I would have ever expected from him, and never charged me a dime. He was sincere, compassionate, light hearted and is just truly an incredible person and attorney. I highly recommend Jerome Williams, if you ever need help with the ESC!

I hired Nicole Li from the Li Law Firm for a matter under investigation by the Department of Health. Her responsiveness, communication style, and emotional awareness were impeccable. Nicole responded to emails almost immediately, relieving any weighing concerns. Communication via phone and email conveyed assertiveness and authenticity, which showed the traits of a genuine individual. Nicole alleviated my concerns the whole time we worked together, easing a disruptive and emotionally difficult time in my life. After what seemed like forever, the matter under investigation was closed with no further action. My license is unaffected- I recommend Nicole Li!

Nicole is an excellent lawyer. I felt so seen by her. She listened to me, she shared herself with me, and she believed in me. Her support was comforting and so necessary as I moved through the formidable process of being investigated by the DOH. From the outset, she made herself completely available to me and made sure to include me in every aspect of our process together. She advocated for me in a skillful and honest way, and because of her support, we were successful in closing the case within four months (granted my case was not a complicated one). I highly recommend Nicole for any case involving the DOH of Washington State. She is caring and personable, efficient and talented.

As a new business owner, I was looking for someone to help navigate the world of compliance in the therapeutic world. Nicole was both knowledgeable about the legal requirements for my business and mindful in her delivery of information and recommendations. Nicole became just as invested and enthusiastic about my business as me! She established an efficient communication system where we could easily brainstorm and share ideas about the business and update documents like client intake forms and policies. It has been a great partnership!
 As my business grows, Nicole continues to be a wonderful and reliable source - from answering my business questions to helping create new documents and policies. I know that I can count on her for my business needs. Michele Owner, The Wanderers’ Nest www.twnfarm.com

Alex represented our son in a civil and later criminal case. From the very moment we contacted him, he showed he cared for our son’s wellbeing & took charge of a very difficult case. We had no legal experience at all and he patiently & thoroughly explained things to us. He knew right away our son was suffering from an underlying medical condition & he knew we needed to get him home as quickly as possible. His expertise and professionalism were amazing. Alex represented our son at the preliminary hearing so well, the plaintiff didn’t show to the actual hearing. We were able to get our son home and the cases were later closed. I can’t say enough about Alex. He literally saved our son’s life! If you want the best of the best, you need Alex to represent you.

I got hit with a TPO full of false allegations in Kitsap County out of the blue stemming from a dispute with my HOA (ironically involving other false allegations). After hiring Alex, he immediately got to work and provided invaluable guidance every step of the way in getting the case together. By the time we got to court, we were so prepared that we never even got to testify, the judge threw the case out in our favor after the petitioner's story completely fell apart. I was almost disappointed to win so quickly, as we had so much more to go over! I had total confidence in him every step of the way. If you ever get in a situation like this, I would highly recommend his services.

I called Alexander's law office from the Sacramento airport while I was on a layover where I had to be in court in Seattle to respond to a legal matter. He only had about 18 hours to prepare and defend me, yet he did so in impressive fashion: CASE DISMISSED. He educated me on the what to expect in a legal process before we entered the courtroom and walked me through a mock Q & A scenario on what to expect at the time of my hearing. It was exactly as he described with the exception that I didn't have to do any talking at all because his explanation was so sharp and to the point that he blew the whole case apart in one session without dragging my dear friend into the case who was called as a witness when she did not want to be used as a scapegoat and set up to be embarrassed by questions unrelated to her. He really knows how to thread the needle to help protect everyone all while reminding you that YOU, THE CLIENT is always his main concern. No less important, his fee structure is extremely honest too. I was expecting to pay one amount much higher than what he actually retained from me, but actually ended up with money back that I had considered gone. Finally, after our victory, he sat with me for about 35 or 40 minutes and just gave me true down-to-earth legal counsel and advice on what to do moving forward to avoid disputes like mine all while telling me about alternative options if I ever need him again. Put this guy on retainer, it's a no-brainer in the adage when it comes to him.

He won my case with the best possible outcome; the Admin Board results were 3-0 no misconduct and 3-0 retention, a unanimous win. His extensive experience and tremendous talent was the reason my board went so well. No matter what the details of your case are, he will ensure you get the best possible outcome.

I was facing TWO allegations in my Command which are 112a and 93. With 16 years in the Navy, I knew the Navy has ZERO tolerance when it comes to illegal drugs and I take it very seriously. I got so worried that my 16 long years I spent my life in the Navy would just flush thru a drain like waste. As soon as I found out about it, I didnt hesitate to call Mr White and he gave me some advises before I even hire him and met in person. The moment I met Mr White, I felt very comfortable and ease. He is so flexible that I can meet or call him almost anytime of the day to answer any questions and worries I had. I will never forget that time he told me that he will go to war for me to win this battle. The day of my Adsep board he truly proven me what he said by shutting down our opponents who tried to take me down. I highly recommend Mr Bruce White to anyone who is facing the toughest time in life.

I came in for a consultation and Sam listened to me and gave it to me straight. This is exactly what I needed. To understand what I wanted to accomplish and how I may need to compromise. He gave me alternative situations and advised me that I may not get exactly what I was looking for because of my situation. But he also explained that what I was looking could be accomplished down the road if it didn’t work now. The consultation was so informative he even told me I might not even need him and I could do it myself. I knew this going into it. (And was relieved to know he wasn’t just trying to get my money. As I’ve heard other previous horror stories from friends and family when it comes to other Lawyers.) However my other Co-Parent had already hired a lawyer, I wanted the peace of mind Sam brought to the table. Also his firms reputation was nice. And it shined through in his professionalism and timely communication. In the end it went exactly how Sam and I discussed it would happen. In six months I will be 50/50 Co Parent. Thank you Sam!!!

I went through a high-conflict divorce that involved false accusations and threats around taking away custody. It was a stressful process, but Sam guided me through it, kept things in perspective, always had a game plan, and somehow managed to add in some humor through it all to lighten the mood. We won literally everything I asked for in court - I'm so glad I trusted him with one of the biggest decisions of my life. Highly recommend.

Sam is great. I would not recommend another family law attorney to anyone. My case was quite extensive and very high conflict. Sam got me a result that I would have never expected. He conducted himself professionally with me and with counsel on the other side and it is easy to see that Sam is highly respected amongst his peers. He was extremely empathetic with my situation and was able to guide me through each issue that arose calmly and professionally. He gave me straight forward advice and never promised me anything that he couldn't deliver. He told me all the risks involved with each path we could take and enabled me to make informed decisions. Sam was able to walk me and talk me through some of the lowest points of my entire life. If you are going thru a family law case and want a fair, reasonable, intelligent, straight shooter that delivers real results, go with Sam.

Catherine Mary Cherkasky (aka Katie) is indisputably the best military lawyer in the world. Katie has represented me for over 2 years now. Katie is brilliant, articulate, intelligent, and beautiful. She possesses huge amounts of common sense, and is cool, calm & collected at all times. I can think of no finer professional who performs their duties in a noteworthy manner! Fox News agrees with me...Katie is their “go to” expert on many legal issues. It was crazy being in confinement, and seeing “my lawyer” opining on Fox News, regarding some legal issue of the day...it gave me inspiration, and boosted my morale! Katie filed my Appellate Brief to the Navy-Marine Corps Court of Criminal Appeals on 24 September 2018. She made sure I got a copy the same day. The instant I read through it, I knew my serious conviction would be set aside “WITH PREJUDICE” for factual & legal insufficiency by the Appellate Court Judges. It took nine more long months in confinement, but on 1 July 2019, the Appellate Court Judges set aside my serious conviction “WITH PREJUDICE” and my sentence in its entirety! Imagine being me for a second at 1610 on 1 July 2019, and you get a legal call from your lawyer, informing you of the good news. I don’t get choked up often, being an Infantry Marine, but I was babbling like a baby that afternoon when Katie called me with the good news! Katie’s brief on my behalf will be studied by generations of future law school students. It was the perfect brief...read the transcript! The brief was so good that the Appellate Court didn’t require “Oral Arguments”...no need to waste time & money when Katie had laid it out so perfectly! Following my EXONERATION, Katie & Andy continued to stick with me. They negotiated my release from confinement, and “NO PUNISHMENT” for the remaining minor convictions. I will literally do anything for Katie until my last dying breath! Katie had my back through the Appellate Court’s total acquittal...I will have her back forever!

I am extremely impressed with Cory's skills as a lawyer and I have benefited tremendously because of his legal expertise and advice. Cory is extremely knowledgeable in criminal and civil law. I am currently involved in a highly contested civil litigation case. Cory has done a tremendous job helping me navigate this challenging situation and the advice & expertise he provided were crucial in helping me secure a victory at a recent emergency motion hearing. His fees are very fair for the service he provides. He is extremely accessible, too. I have exchanged messages about my situations with Cory at all times of the day and night.

You will not find a more experienced attorney who will get you the best possible outcome in your case than Bubba Head. A very well respected attorney in Atlanta referred me to him for my personal injury claim resulting from being rear ended in a car accident. My case was complicated and Bubba knew how to navigate through the multiple layers. Ultimately, Bubba wrote a masterful Holt demand letter that included all of the details of the incident and resulted in the company granting our full request. Besides being the most competent attorney you can hire he is the most compassionate attorney you will find. He understood the nature of my injuries as well as the associated stress of the accident and was supportive throughout the process of my recovery.

These attorneys handle cases ranging from constitutional law, administrative law, regulatory compliance, and government contracts to defending or challenging government actions.

Government lawyers help individuals and organizations understand their rights and obligations under the law, represent them in disputes with government agencies, and assist in matters of government contracting, procurement, or public policy.

When Should I Hire a Government Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a government lawyer in several situations involving government regulations, compliance, or disputes. Common reasons to hire a government lawyer include:

  • Government contracts and procurement: If you are bidding for or negotiating a contract with a government agency, a lawyer can help ensure compliance with federal, state, or local contracting rules.
  • Regulatory compliance: Businesses operating in highly regulated industries (e.g., healthcare, finance, environmental sectors) often need legal guidance to comply with government regulations and avoid penalties.
  • Government investigations: If you're being investigated by a government agency such as the IRS, SEC, or EPA, a government lawyer can help defend you against allegations or negotiate settlements.
  • Challenging government actions: If a government agency has denied a permit, license, or benefit, a lawyer can help you appeal or challenge the decision in court.
  • Constitutional and civil rights issues: If you believe your constitutional rights have been violated by a government entity, such as in cases involving free speech or discrimination, a government lawyer can help you seek justice.
  • Public policy or lobbying efforts: If you are involved in lobbying or advocating for policy changes at the local, state, or federal level, a government lawyer can provide legal advice on compliance with lobbying laws and strategies for effective advocacy.

Hiring a government lawyer early in the process can help you navigate complex legal frameworks and avoid costly mistakes when dealing with government-related legal issues.

How Are Government Lawyers Paid?

Government lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the nature of the legal work involved. Common payment structures include:

  • Flat fee: For specific services, such as drafting a government contract or filing an administrative appeal, some lawyers charge a flat fee.
  • Retainer: For clients who need ongoing legal support, such as businesses frequently interacting with government agencies, a lawyer may charge a retainer fee. This is an upfront payment that covers future legal services.
  • Contingency fee: In some cases involving litigation, such as civil rights violations, a lawyer may work on a contingency basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case.

It’s important to discuss fee structures with your lawyer during the initial consultation to avoid surprises.

Be sure to get a clear estimate of costs during your consultation to ensure that you understand the fees associated with your case.

Top Questions to Ask a Government Lawyer

When hiring a government lawyer, it’s essential to ask the right questions to ensure they have the experience and skills needed for your specific situation. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What is your experience with government law cases?
    Make sure the lawyer has substantial experience in handling cases or issues involving government agencies, regulatory compliance, or constitutional law.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Ask how the lawyer charges for their services - whether by the hour, flat fee, retainer, or contingency fee - and request an estimate of costs.
  3. What are the potential outcomes of my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment of your legal options and the likelihood of success based on your specific situation.
  4. How do you handle interactions with government agencies?
    Ask about their approach to dealing with government entities and their experience with specific agencies relevant to your case (e.g., IRS, EPA, SEC).
  5. Have you handled cases like mine before?
    Ask about their experience with similar cases and whether they have achieved favorable outcomes in the past.
  6. Who will handle my case?
    Clarify whether the lawyer you are meeting with will personally handle your case or whether junior attorneys or paralegals will do most of the work.

How to Check the Credibility of a Government Lawyer

To ensure you’re hiring a reputable government lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:

  • Check state bar association records: Confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Review their professional experience: Look for specific experience in government-related legal issues, such as regulatory compliance, government contracts, or administrative law, on their website or professional profile.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Check online reviews and ratings on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to get insight into the lawyer’s reputation and track record.
  • Ask for references: Request references from previous clients who have worked with the lawyer on government-related matters to understand their experience and effectiveness.
  • Check for membership in relevant organizations: Look for memberships in professional organizations such as the American Bar Association's Administrative Law Section or the National Institute of Government Procurement, which can indicate the lawyer’s focus on government law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first meeting with a government lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant information and documents. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Detailed description of your legal issue: Be prepared to explain your situation, whether it’s a regulatory compliance question, a government contract issue, or a dispute with a government agency.
  • Relevant documents: Bring any paperwork related to your case, such as contracts, permits, letters from government agencies, or notices of investigation.
  • A list of questions: Write down any questions you have about your case, including the legal process, potential outcomes, and costs.
  • Timeline of events: Provide a clear timeline of any relevant events, such as the issuance of government orders or interactions with government agencies.
  • Goals for the outcome: Be ready to discuss what you hope to achieve, whether it’s a favorable settlement, regulatory compliance, or overturning a government decision.

By being organized and prepared, you can help your lawyer understand your situation more quickly and give you the best legal advice moving forward.
