Josh is a passionate attorney who zealously represents his clients. He assisted us in reaching a favorable resolution when a larger company would have otherwise ignored and tried to bully us into bearing thousands of dollars of losses for that company’s mistake. Highly recommend and would hire him again in a heartbeat.

I am very fortunate & blessed to have come across Mr. Taylor when looking for an attorney. I almost decided to go with another attorney until I called Mr. Taylor & he invited me in to talk about my situation. After speaking with him in person, it became very clear to me who I wanted to represent me. Mr. Taylor is extremely thorough & does an incredible job of communicating the details of each & every aspect of your case. He genuinely cared about me, my life, & how to best resolve my situation. I am very thankful to have met Mr. Taylor & would recommend his services to anyone who needs an attorney.

Look no further for a lawyer in the Middle Tennessee area. John Taylor is an incredible lawyer (and man) that has a focus on high communication and making sure you understand what is going on. For someone who has never had to deal with anything court related, I was confused and discouraged at first because I did not know where to start. John made sure we knew what was going on and took care of everything for us. My charges against me were completed dropped and dismissed as they should’ve been from the beginning. John was relentless, yet calm and collected, during his appearances on my behalf. This is exactly what you would want in a lawyer and the full dismissal is a testament to his persistent work. If you have an unjust charge or are looking to get the best case scenario from your mistake, call John Taylor.

He allowed me to ask some basic questions and gave me answers I understood. His understanding of the law and Denton County were very helpful and informative.

I contracted Mr. Rentz for a criminal case in Denton County. Although he took over the case at the point it was set for a final plea, the difference was apparent from the first conversation. It was evident to me that Mr. Rentz holds a certain degree of respect in the court room that my previous attorney lacked. After just one reset Mr. Rentz was able to work a conditional dismissal. Once I completed the required course the judge signed the dismissal and I didn't even have to return to court. Thanks to Mr. Rentz I can get the record expunged. I would highly recommend this attorney.

Amanda helped me with my child custody case against my ex-wife. My case kept getting postponed and didn't seem like it was ever going to over. I'm thankful that Amanda stuck with me and didn't give up on me even when things got tough. Her efforts made it possible for my kids and I to be reunited after a year and a half of not being allowed to see or contact them. Without her help I truly do feel that I would not have been successful defending my rights as their father as effectively as she did for me. So once again thank you from the bottom of my heart. My daughters are my oxygen that are essential to me to live a happy life. Without your efforts to help me, none of the joy that I experience today would have been possible. Thank you so very much

I had the pleasure of working with Curran Law for my case, and I couldn't be more grateful for the support and expertise they provided throughout the entire process. From the initial consultation to the resolution of my case, Curran law was extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and empathetic. They took the time to explain the legal process in detail, answered all of my questions, and made sure I fully understood my options. The level of attention to detail and the clear communication throughout was exceptional, which made a stressful experience much easier to navigate. Thanks to their hard work and dedication, I felt confident in the defense strategy, and they were able to secure a favorable outcome. I would highly recommend to anyone in need of a reliable, professional, and effective attorney. Their expertise and commitment truly made a difference in my case.

Can I give more than 5 stars? Because I would! I have never met a more “work for you” lawyer in my life. I can't say enough good things about Whitney Eiland. From the moment I met her, I knew I was in good hands. Whitney took the time to really understand my situations and explained everything to me to put my mind and heart at ease. Throughout my cases, yep plural, she has always been just a call or email away, keeping me updated and answering any questions. What really stands out to me is how much she genuinely cares. She treated me with nothing but kindness and respect! If you need a lawyer who’s not only super smart but also truly compassionate and will work for you, Whitney is the one to go to. I'm so grateful for everything she has done and will do for me, because I will continue to use her for anything I might need!

If you are considering letting Mr. Plummer representing you or your family you won’t be disappointed. Mr. Plummer represented my son in a case recently. He was determined and honest the entire time. He established a comfortable relationship allowing us to be more relaxed during the process and confident in his skills and knowledge. He assured that all my questions were answered and explained everything in such great details so I’m those moments I was a little confused, he broke it all down. He made sure my son was comfortable and he understood everything that was going on during this entire court process. If I had to choose an attorney again I would definitely go with Mr. Plummer. He communicated with us very frequently and did not rush us when we were talking. When ever I called and needed a question answer, he responded with such urgency. It was as if my family and I were the only case he was working on. Thank you so much Mr. Plummer for all your hard work and dedication. You are amazing.

I worked with Mark Savoy and Diane Barrera Joseph Santaularia was my primary attorney or my main attorney for six months he helped me. I went through a situation that I’ve never been through and I should not have been in long story short I had three charges and was unaware. I found out through getting hired at this job when they did a background check they chose not to hire me and that’s when I became aware of my situation! So I had to prepare to turn myself in, which is something I’ve never done I didn’t do it right away I gathered information and did it about a month later I Went through that whole process ended up having to turn in my firearm. We fought hard on this for six months three charges dropped case dismissed as of 4 months ago last August 30th it was finalized. They helped me go through a process to where I was able to get the entire case sealed with the Help of Mark & Diane and now my case it now no longer appears on my record or anywhere, and they were able to help me get my firearm back. Colorado Legal Defense was always there with advice and if someone couldn’t make it, their whole team would make sure somebody was there to represent you in court. I would highly recommend Colorado Legal Defense group. If you are unsure about your situation or if you don’t think you already know the outcome these guys will give you some insight. Thanks Joseph my attorney and the rest of theColorado Legal Defense Group! Thank you Mark and Diane as well! Happy New Year! 💪🏽

Starting with Laura and Maureen they took on my custody battle and they were open and honest the entire step of the way. Nicole then joined my case and she stepped right in where Maureen left off, assisting Laura. Laura is fierce and has grit like no one I've ever met. She works so hard to get her clients the justice they deserve. Ive never met someone with so much compassion for her patients. This office keeps things moving! Calling at 8pm at night to give an update! When she says she is all in, I assure you she is all in. I am forever grateful for all of the hard work Laura and Nicole have done for me over the years.

Mr. Hennessey was my attorney many years ago, but from reading his reviews he has only continued to his greatness as an attorney... He represented me in a criminal case that started with me facing life. He always made sure to encourage me and let me know not to worry. During my case he fought so hard for my freedom and to ensure the courts treated me right that he ended up with a charge himself (which I believe was dismissed latter) for contempt of court from a shady judge. Well from that threat of life and after a lengthy trial I walked away with a sentence that was worthy of my crime. I never came to Mr. Hennessey an innocent man, I knew I did wrong and deserved punishment but Mr. Hennessey made sure that's what I got. Ive been out for some time now and have a good life now, and I honestly give Mr. Hennessey much credit for fighting so hard to allow me to have this second chance at life... There were actually 3 of us in this case and although we all had our own attorneys Mr. Hennessey fought so hard for all of us that we all ended up coming home from this case. Believe me if you want or need an attorney who will fight to the end for you and who knows his stuff then Sean Hennessey is the lawyer you want in your corner...

Out of the 15 attourneys Ive discussed my case with, Sean was the only one who walked me through the process, explained my worst and best case scenarios, and reassured me that everything will be okay. I really don't know where I would be if it wasn't for Sean. He saved me thousands of dollars on lawyer fees and gave me my peace of mind back. If you need a lawyer who knows the system like the back of his hand, who has your best interest in mind, and someone who isn't trying to suck the living financial blood out of you, I highly recommend Sean D. Hennessey. Thank you again Sean, I can't thank you enough!

My case was plagued with lots of police misconduct and violation of my rights. Every attorney I got was "ready" to fight or so they said until they got the retainer. All my previous attorneys wanted me to settle for ridiculous plea deals. Sean was the only attorney that was able to uncover 2 different police reports for my case and brought to light all the things the police lied about to get the case to stick. Sean is like a pit bull in the court room with still being beyond professional. If your case has a lot of issues or you simply just want someone that will actually be thorough and do what they say, get Sean.

I contacted Bryan after my husband was arrested and was accused of assault. My husband suffers from Parkinson's Disease and has mental health issues, and we needed help from an attorney who was a good listener and would fight for what was right. The case went on for over 14 months. Bryan was patient and dedicated throughout this experience. He kept the family focused on the end result and he never gave up. His sense of humor and personality made a very challenging situation bearable. I would highly recommend Bryan as a criminal defense attorney.

I was in what I considered the worse situation of my life and had no idea what to do. Flynn Bertisch took my case and walked me through every step that I needed to take. I’ve never been in “trouble” before so to say I was scared was an understatement. My first conversation with Flynn, eased my mind and gave me hope. He worked so hard from the second he took me on as a client. Even after my case was declared as “no file”, he continued to answer my questions and simply just check in with me to see how I was doing. I can’t say thank you enough to Flynn! I highly recommend him to anyone in need.

This truly has to be the BEST criminal defense attorney association in Tucson Arizona hands down. THE FEDERAL KING IS KATSERELLIS LAW! I hired Kat on day 1 after a free consultation and he devoted so many hours of his time to me and I was able to go over my entire case with him and explain to him how the previous attorney I have was neglecting me and not willing to cooperate with me on anything within the interest I found best fit for my case with my brother. so within 48 hours I had an answer on a Plea, within 9 days got a plea agreement, within 1.5 Months with Kat’s word given was able to get me to court to begin the process to finish my case, and in under 90 days was able to successfully execute and close out a 6 month incarceration that was potentially looking at 33-41 months maximum. Kat is the most well respected individual, COMMUNICATION IS THE KEY TO HIS ATTENTIVENESS and he is ALWAYS ON CALL 24-7! Kat has THE MOST KIND HEARTED paralegal that works with him and her name is Jasmine. She was always on call and answering me any time I needed her to. Jasmine is so organized with coordinating anything Kat needed throughout my case and the best part is their a dynamic duo and were able to dominate my case for me and make sure we all were successful within the outcome. Kat and Jasmine know how to be patient when it came to any emotions that got in the way throughout this case because of how difficult our prosecutor was. Every single time I texted or called one of them answered. They always emailed me anything I asked for, and never once did they say No to me. I always was given anything I needed from the both of them. Truly I thank them from the bottom of my heart for executing this case and helping save my brothers life. Kat and Jasmine both helped get my brothers life back and help me get my life back on track with so much support because they knew how difficult it was for me to balance an incarcerated brother while also having to be on the outside free world and make sure he was okay at the same time. I told Kat that a miracle would happen at our sentencing and that’s exactly what happened, a time served miracle thanks to Kat! The level of intelligent, integrity, loyalty, respect, and authentic work ethic that this man has is BEYOND BEAUTIFUL. KATSERELLIS LAW FIRM IS THE BEST LAW FIRM IN TUCSON ARIZONA! God forbid if anything ever happens again, Kat is on speed dial and will be retained immediately. I trust him with my entire life till the death of me. God bless this law firm for everything they did to save my families life.

We initially consulted with Shahar while thinking of a different legal path that we thought we needed to take for our son. She was so honest with us in the initial consultation about how that path might not be the best one to serve our son's needs. We are so happy we listened to her. Shahar has been invaluable to us. She has always been available and ready to advocate for our son even when outside of business hours and during what was a difficult situation we were experiencing. We never had to wait for responses when communicating with her or her office. She is the attorney you want in your child's corner. It always feels like Shahar advocates for our son as he were her very own. I cannot recommend Shahar strongly enough!

Matthew Rinaldi never filed A Motion For New Trial and scammed me for $15,000 and committed Fraud. He made a deal with The Prosecutor in my case. I’m a innocent wrongfully convicted man, and now I don’t have any money left to challenge or appeal my wrongful conviction because The McGregor Law Firm stole all of my money. Matthew Rinaldi is very unprofessional and thinks he knows it all. Matthew Rinaldi also acts like A Prosecutor instead of a Criminal Defense Attorney. Matthew will cross examine you like a Prosecutor, instead of talking about how to build your defense. Matthew Rinaldi doesn’t care about his clients. In my opinion he seems like a Undercover Detective working for The Prosecutors Office.

I originally sought a divorce/separation consultation from Attorney Crane and due to her complete honest feedback and well thought out options I decided on hiring her. She was a beacon of hope to my family at a time when our options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed next to impossible. Attorney Crane was extremely thorough, very persistent in achieving a positive resolution, diligently research focused, fair priced, goal oriented, and always provided timely and honest feedback and answers to all my questions. Not only did she provide an outstanding service where I was able to accomplish a desired result for me and my family during my time of need, uncertainty, and heartache, but she was able to defend me from unjust accusations as well. Her calm, professional and empathetic demeanor offered emotional support and hope to myself and those I care about most. My children and I are eternally grateful for her service and I sincerely trust her with any legal need as well as the lives of me and my and children. I highly recommend Attorney Crane without reservation.

I honestly don't even know where to start. My divorce case was a complete nightmare. There is no worse feeling as a parent, than to know your child's best interest lays in the hands of someone else. It was terrifying. At the end of my case, I can honestly say Ms. Evans was the best lawyer I could have ever asked for. She fought hard for my daughter. I genuinely felt like she was fighting for her well being, just as she would want for her own. She kept her safe. Ms. Evans knows her stuff and is on top of it. She is prepared and can rebuttal facts! She is not only good at what she does, but she cares for her clients. She is very affordable and will work with her clients. Bianka is just as amazing. She is always polite and listens to your concerns. All around, I couldn't be more satisfied and will definitely use them again, when I am ready for my adoption case. If you find yourself looking for the best, definitely hire Ms. Evans. I promise you wont be disappointed. She is worth every penny! Ms. Evans won my divorce case, and also handled my tpr case and won it as well. My daughters and myself are now safe, due to her diligence, hard work, outstanding knowledge of family law, and passion for what she does. I give her a 100%

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.
