He helped me resolve 2 traffic tickets i got on the same day. He got the charges and fines reduced. The best part was from the very first call he was upfront about what his action plan is and set the expectations straight. It was a seamless experience.

Five stars all the way for the Law Offices of Douglas Scheinman! Douglas went above and beyond to help me fight off points for a stop sign ticket. His communication throughout the process was exceptional, keeping me informed and reassured every step of the way. It's evident that Douglas is an expert in his field, as he effortlessly navigated the legal complexities and delivered the best possible outcome for my case. Without hesitation, I would turn to him again for any legal matter and highly recommend his services to friends and family. Thank you, Douglas, for your outstanding representation!

Hire him!! He is absolutely fantastic! He has a rather calm approach to his clients, which is extremely helpful in stressful court situations. He had great communication throughout the process. Scheinman stays focused on his client wishes while providing a refreshing perspective that is supportive. I was able to win my case because of this talented lawyer. I am incredibly grateful because he treated me as a human being with his kind guidance as a lawyer.

We recently purchased a home in Glastonbury and chose Kane, Hartley & Kane to guide us through the process after reading so many positive reviews online. We found Tom and his team, including Trish, Austin and Dawn to be very knowledgeable, thorough and responsive in addressing our concerns and completing the closing in a timely manner .. we would highly recommend this group.

2nd go around with this firm and they just never disappoint. It’s been amazing working with Trish and Tom Jr. they are absolutely the best and make a great team! Responsive, knowledgeable, and most importantly they make it known that they work for you and they get the job done! Highly and strongly recommend this dynamic duo of a team and this firm if you’re looking to purchase a home as a first time buyer or experienced buyer look no further.

Patrick has been representing me for about almost a year now. Before Patrick I tried representing myself and I made a huge mess out of my case and it seemed like it was almost impossible for anything good to come out of it. Patrick has been there for every hearing and it wasn’t cheap and it wasn’t easy but I now have the most amount of time I have ever had with my son. I know that with time I will be able to achieve my goals with my son, even though the odds are stacked against me Patrick has been there every step of the way and has gave me hope that we will beat all odds. Martha is extremely helpful and I’m very thankful for her, I don’t understand any of the paperwork and she breaks it down for me and is extremely patient. I highly recommend Patrick, he will fight for you and get the job done. A huge thank you to Patrick and Martha.

I cannot thank Patrick O'Kennedy and Martha Solorio enough for their incredible dedication and expertise in helping me gain custody of my child. From the very first consultation, Patrick demonstrated unparalleled knowledge of family law and a genuine commitment to my case. They fought tirelessly for my rights as a parent and always had my child's best interests at heart. Martha was equally amazing, providing constant support and ensuring I stayed informed and prepared throughout the process. Their organization, kindness, and professionalism made a difficult time so much easier to navigate. Thanks to this amazing team, my family is whole again. If you're looking for a compassionate and highly skilled child custody lawyer, look no further than Patrick and Martha. They are truly the best!

I recently retained Mr. Lindsey's service for a rather complicated traffic violation. Throughout the process, he was very attentive as well as empathetic to my situation. An amicable resolution could not be reached verbally, and we were forced to have a trial. Mr. Lindsey was professional and argued my case flawlessly. His ability to make an argument in the courtroom was very impressive. I must also add, since I am from Maryland and the citation was issued in Virginia, that Mr. Lindsey is very well versed in legal codes for both states, and with that knowledge, was able to negotiate an outcome that was beneficial to me. I am pleased that I selected him to assist me, and, though I hope I don't have a need for him again, I would not hesitate to retain his services again.

I am incredibly thankful for Andrew Lindsey representing me in my case, my ultimate decision to go with him was because he went through a similar case and has great experience with criminal defense. He was also the only attorney to give me an hours worth of his time free of charge to explain in full depth what my case entails and the hypotheticals that could take place. We were expected to go to court, with Mr. Lindsey's extensive knowledge with statements back and forth with the judge and prosecutor he was able to get my case dropped before the preliminary hearing and I face no charges brought against me! I am elated that I paid for a great service but because of attorneys like Andrew Lindsey that are representing you for your best defense. All my questions were answered in full depth and explained clearly. He is Calm, collective, and keeps composure with strong logical thinking! 10/10

Estoy increíblemente agradecida con el equipo de The Grande Law Firm por su apoyo durante todo mi proceso. Antes de trabajar con ellos, tenía otro abogado, pero me resultaba muy difícil obtener la ayuda que necesitaba. A menudo no podía comunicarme con nadie, y me sentía perdida y sin claridad sobre lo que debía hacer. Todo cambió cuando comencé a trabajar con The Grande Law Firm. Han sido increíbles, siempre apoyándome y estando allí cuando los necesito. Gracias a su arduo trabajo, mi hija ya tiene programada su entrevista. Lo que más me impresiona es cómo me hacen sentir como parte de su familia. Cada vez que hablo con ellos, me siento lo suficientemente cómoda como para compartir mi historia, y de verdad siento que puedo confiar en ellos. Es raro encontrar personas que sean no solo profesionales, sino también amables y compasivas. Recomiendo muchísimo a The Grande Law Firm a cualquiera que necesite ayuda; ¡ellos te cuidarán como si fueras parte de su familia!

I'm opening with the statement: INCREDIBLE service, attention to detail, and follow up! I sustained injuries in a car accident where the other driver was at fault, and for the first time in my life I realized that I was going to need more than my own auto insurance company's assistance. Fortunately for me, I was referred to the team at GJEL Accident Attorneys as a starting point, and I didn't need to seek any other guidance after that. I completed a very quick and efficient phone call to explain my circumstances to the firm, and before I could blink I had received an email with clear and simple steps to take to begin the process. I was treated with kindness and compassion during a time when I had a lot of worries about the accident. They made me feel so at ease by advising that they would essentially take over all of the difficult correspondence that was already starting - whether it was my insurance company, the other driver's insurance company, hospital bill inquiries, etc, they handled it all immediately. I was informed and advised at every step down the path to settlement, and their timeliness along the way was so impressive that it made me feel that somehow I was their only client. I wholeheartedly recommend GJEL Accident Attorneys should the need arise, as the entire team had incredible industry knowledge, and they were punctual and professional at every step.

My husband got into a bit of a pickle and we randomly found Maureen on google searches. We had a consultation call with her and she was up front and honest about her ethics, her pricing and if she thought we had a good case or not. She listened to my husband and then she listened to me and what I had to say. It’s literally been like this the entire transaction between us! She’s compassionate, and caring and will give you options but wants to do what YOU want. She showed and up was a bulldog in court when we thought things were going to go south. She fought for justice and what was fair after waiting over six months for a simple video to be sent over, which still hasn’t been done! She brought to light my husband had to forfeit his right on a speedy trial for the lack of evidence that was produced. Needless to say, if we have ANY issues going forward, we’d hire Maureen over and over and over again. We will recommend her to anyone and everyone.

To start I’m a real person, which is something I have to ensure whenever I read other reviews of things online. My spouse struggles with vast mental health challenges and unfortunately had a mental health crisis that resulted in his arrest. I’ve been hunting for someone who not only could represent him, but for someone who is compassionate and fierce. I found out and researched Mr. Flohr before leaving him a voice mail. He called me later that same day and for the first time since everything happened I finally have some hope again for my husband. Christopher Flohr listened and heard me. I 100% intend to hire him today. I’ll provide an update afterwards, but for now I needed to say just how much relief I feel having someone take the time to hear me like he did. Thank you!

Mr. Flohr was hired by our family to navigate the sticky, complicated mess that our loved one got into due to his mental health issues. There were three separate cases all at once. Mr. Flohr took time out to talk to multiple family members to understand the situation at home. He not only empathized but was compassionate about our difficult situation. On multiple occasions we were able to reach out to Chris over phone, email, and text to get updates or provide him with relevant information. Chris was able to persuade the state that our loved one needed help and had a stable home/family waiting for him. As a result of his effort our loved one is now free and getting the help he needs. We are so thankful for his service and expertise.

I am beyond grateful for the exceptional legal representation provided by James Papirmeister in a challenging case that lasted 9 months. From the very beginning, Mr. Papirmeister demonstrated an extraordinary level of professionalism, intelligence, and dedication that truly set him apart. His profound knowledge of law, particularly Maryland legislation, was evident at every turn. This expertise, combined with his strategic acumen, allowed him to navigate the complexities of the case with remarkable skill. Throughout the entire process, he was incredibly attentive and patient, taking the time to explain every detail and ensuring that we felt supported and informed at every step. One of James’ most impressive qualities is his ability to connect with the courtroom. His persuasive arguments and commanding presence won over the judge, showcasing his mastery in the art of legal advocacy. He truly did everything within his power to secure the best possible outcome for us. Mr. Papirmeister is not only a master of his craft but also a compassionate and kind individual who genuinely cares about his clients. His unique philosophy and strategic approach to handling cases are a testament to his brilliance in the field of criminal law. I can confidently say that you won't find another lawyer like him anywhere—he is truly one of a kind. I cannot thank Jim enough for his unwavering support and expertise. His ability to navigate complex legal challenges with confidence and precision is truly remarkable. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of a top-notch criminal lawyer who is committed to achieving the best possible results.

What stands out the most about Mr. Papirmeister isn’t just his reputation and understanding of criminal law, though, both are impressive. It isn’t even that he gets results, though, he definitely does. The thing that told us we had the right attorney was the genuine empathy he displayed from the first consultation to the final hearing. He takes the time to explain what he’s doing and why, and conveys genuine concern for all parties involved.

The best experience during a worst case scenario. My son was facing false allegations of a Title IX violation. We researched and consulted several leading legal advisors throughout the country. Several took the approach of "fear factoring" us into needing their legal services but didn't necessarily express a true regard for my son's state of mind. After initially speaking with Atty. Joseph Lento, and immediately being treated with the utmost sincerity and having been acknowledged for our feelings with the matter, we felt we would be moving forward with obtaining their counsel. They even granted a follow-up call waiving an additional consultation fee to allow us the opportunity to address a few points with no pressure to choose their firm. At that point, we knew they had more interest in our comfort level and goals than simply collecting a payment. Once on board, we were assigned to Kyle Adams, who had the knowledge and expertise in this area of law and whom was an absolute pleasure to work with. He made himself available in the evenings, weekends and on his direct cell via telephone, Zoom, as well as in-person simply at our request to ensure my son was comfortable, even though he was over 2 hours away. Kyle's client-centered approach made a significant difference in his case, from a thorough investigation, supportive evidence, and his skillful negotiation helping him achieve a quick resolution to obtain our desired outcome of a withdrawal of the claim. Thanks to the Lento Law Firm and their Atty. Kyle Adams expertise, my son avoided severe academic penalties, if this wasn't handled with the care and diligent efforts that were needed to navigate this endeavor. In the end, my son had regained his reputation and respect of his friends and peers. I cannot express my most heartfelt, and sincere gratefulness for all that was done. We will only reach out to Lento Law Firm and his team if we are ever in need of legal services going forward. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Michael is a good human and an amazing Lawyer. I found myself in a situation I had never been in before facing an unnecessary and un-true charge that stemmed from a home and self defense situation. I found Michael and knew right away I could fire the 1st Lawyer I had retained and stick with Michael moving forward. Thanks to Michael's experience, talent, and *care*, my case was dismissed and records sealed. I hope I never have to retain a Criminal Defense Lawyer for myself ever again. However, I will forever recommend him to anyone who may be need of one.

I am based on the East Coast and required an attorney on the West Coast. Mr. Fell was recommended to me by a firm on the East Coast. I found Mr. Fell and his Firm very professional, efficient, pleasant, and effective. We discussed the case parameters, and I promptly forgot about them. Well, Mr. Fell did not forget about it; over a year later, he contacted me with a complete resolution of the case and a large refund of the retainer. I have NEVER received a refund for a retainer from any attorney; it has always mysteriously gotten "used" up. If you want an effective and honest Law firm, you can be confident in Mr. Fell and his firm.

Kevin was beyond exceptional. I had such a stressful case with family law and DV, however with Kevin as my attorney I always knew what to expect and what our next step was. You won’t find another attorney as well versed in law as Kevin is and as empathetic to your family needs. Every and any question was always answered , I was represented and treated professionally and recommend him to everyone I come across and I won’t be going to anyone else.

I was arrested for a felony and did not know where to get help. My friend told me to call the Wizard. That nickname is not an understatement. Grant asked me all the right questions so I could gather the necessary evidence that I did not commit the crime. He strategically planned the presentation of the evidence and essentially discredited the witness for the prosecution. Case dismissed! He is brilliant and transparent - always provides straight answers. Need a lawyer that fights, hire Grant, the Wizard!

She was respectful to responding to my requests, a great listener, and most importantly showed that she cared even with her other case loads at hand.

What a Juvenile Law Lawyer Can Do for You

A juvenile law lawyer specializes in legal issues involving minors, including those facing criminal charges, child welfare matters, or status offenses (like truancy or curfew violations). Juvenile law lawyers aim to protect the rights of minors and advocate for rehabilitation rather than punishment in criminal cases. They also help families navigate child custody, abuse, neglect cases, and other legal matters involving children.

If your child is facing criminal charges, or you are involved in a child welfare case, a juvenile law lawyer can help protect your child’s rights and work toward the most favorable outcome.

When Should I Hire a Juvenile Law Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a juvenile law lawyer in the following situations where minors are involved in legal matters:

  • Juvenile criminal charges: If your child is accused of a crime, such as theft, assault, or drug offenses, a juvenile lawyer can represent them in juvenile court, advocating for leniency and alternatives to detention.
  • Delinquency proceedings: A lawyer can help navigate delinquency charges, defending your child’s rights and seeking rehabilitative outcomes like counseling, probation, or diversion programs instead of incarceration.
  • Status offenses: If your child has committed a status offense, such as truancy, running away, or underage drinking, a lawyer can help you resolve these issues in juvenile court, often focusing on rehabilitation rather than punishment.
  • School disciplinary issues: If your child is facing school suspensions, expulsions, or other disciplinary actions, a lawyer can help protect their educational rights and challenge any unfair or unlawful school policies.
  • Child protective services (CPS) investigations: If your family is being investigated by CPS for alleged abuse, neglect, or dependency, a lawyer can represent you and protect your child’s rights throughout the investigation.
  • Custody disputes: A lawyer can help in cases involving child custody or guardianship disputes, ensuring the child’s best interests are prioritized and advocating for the child’s rights.
  • Emancipation: If your child seeks legal emancipation from their parents or guardians, a lawyer can assist in navigating the legal process and help the child understand their rights and responsibilities.

Hiring a lawyer early in the legal process ensures that your child’s rights are protected and that the best possible outcomes are pursued.

What Does a Juvenile Law Lawyer Do?

A juvenile law lawyer provides various services to help minors and their families navigate the legal system. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Representing minors in court: A lawyer will represent your child in juvenile court, advocating for their rights and seeking rehabilitative outcomes rather than punitive measures.
  • Filing motions and legal paperwork: The lawyer handles all necessary legal filings, including petitions, responses, and motions to dismiss charges or suppress evidence.
  • Negotiating with prosecutors: In some cases, a lawyer can negotiate plea deals or diversion programs that prevent the child from having a permanent criminal record or serving time in detention.
  • Advising on rehabilitation programs: Juvenile law lawyers often focus on alternatives to incarceration, such as counseling, community service, or probation, helping minors avoid long-term legal consequences.
  • Handling CPS and child welfare cases: If your family is involved in a CPS investigation or child welfare case, the lawyer can advocate for your child’s safety and well-being, ensuring that their rights are upheld.
  • Defending minors against school discipline: A lawyer can help challenge unfair or excessive disciplinary actions taken by schools, ensuring that your child’s educational rights are protected.
  • Advising families on legal options: A lawyer will explain the juvenile legal process to families, offering advice on the best legal strategies and what to expect during the case.

How Are Juvenile Law Lawyers Paid?

Juvenile law lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the time involved. Common payment structures include:

  • Hourly rate: Many juvenile law lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
  • Flat fee: For simpler cases, such as status offenses or school disciplinary hearings, a lawyer may charge a flat fee that covers all legal services related to the case.
  • Retainer: In more complex cases, such as defending against serious criminal charges or handling a long-term CPS investigation, a lawyer may require a retainer, which is an upfront payment billed against as they work on the case.
  • Sliding scale or pro bono services: Some juvenile law lawyers offer sliding scale fees based on income or may provide pro bono (free) services for families who cannot afford to pay full legal fees, especially in cases involving child welfare or delinquency.

Discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to understand the total cost and payment options.

How Much Does a Juvenile Law Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a juvenile law lawyer depends on the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the time involved. General cost estimates include:

  • Juvenile criminal cases: Legal fees for defending a minor in juvenile criminal cases can range from $2,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on the severity of the charges and whether the case goes to trial.
  • Status offenses: For cases involving minor offenses such as truancy or underage drinking, legal fees typically range from $1,500 to $5,000.
  • CPS or child welfare cases: Legal fees for representing families in CPS investigations or child welfare cases can range from $2,000 to $8,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the case.
  • School disciplinary hearings: Legal fees for representing students in school-related issues may range from $1,000 to $3,500, depending on the legal work required.

Make sure to get a clear estimate of costs during your initial consultation to ensure you understand the full scope of fees and services.

Top Questions to Ask a Juvenile Law Lawyer

Before hiring a juvenile law lawyer, it’s important to ask key questions to ensure they have the experience and expertise to handle your child’s case effectively. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with juvenile law cases?
    Make sure the lawyer has handled cases similar to yours, whether it’s juvenile delinquency, child custody, or CPS investigations.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, offers flat fees, or requires a retainer. Ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost.
  3. What is the likelihood of success in my child’s case?
    Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of the case, including potential challenges and likely outcomes.
  4. How long will the process take?
    Juvenile cases can vary in duration, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to last and what factors might affect the timeline.
  5. Will you personally handle my child’s case?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing the case and representing your child in court.
  6. What rights does my child have?
    Ask the lawyer to explain your child’s legal rights, including their rights during police questioning, school disciplinary actions, and court proceedings.

How to Check the Credibility of a Juvenile Law Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable juvenile law lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and experience:

  • Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice law and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Look for juvenile law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in juvenile law and have successfully handled cases similar to yours.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate in juvenile cases.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on juvenile law matters.
  • Check for certifications or memberships: Look for memberships in organizations like the National Juvenile Defender Center (NJDC) or certifications in juvenile law, which can indicate a lawyer’s dedication to representing minors.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

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

  • Court documents: Bring any legal documents related to your child’s case, such as summons, complaints, or court orders.
  • School records: Provide any relevant school records, including disciplinary reports, attendance records, and communications from school officials.
  • CPS or investigation reports: If your case involves child welfare, bring any reports or documentation from CPS or other investigating agencies.
  • Timeline of events: Prepare a detailed timeline of events related to your child’s legal issue, including interactions with authorities or school officials.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions about the legal process, your child’s rights, and potential outcomes for the case.

Being well-prepared will help the lawyer assess your child’s situation more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice tailored to your needs.
