Absolutely great. We had the pleasure of working with Ms Mehrani for my wife’s case and it was as smooth as it could be. The 2-year home requirement waiver cases are really difficult to obtain especially for hardship reasons. You have to be very experienced and spend a lot of time personally to make sure everything is in order. I am from a couple of states away and still got her services. Couldn’t be happier with my choice.

I got a pretty bad speeding ticket because I was late going to my pregnant wife’s appointment to meet the specialist because she had a high risk pregnancy. The ticket I received was also a super speeder. My job requires that I have a clean record. I hired Kevin and he was able to help me get a great outcome. No points, no reporting to my MVR, this helps SO much because I work and drive a company vehicle for an insurance company. Kevin made the process very easy and seamless. Out of FOUR lawyers that I contacted, Kevin was the only one who was responsive, he was up front about his pricing and steps that I would need to take going forward. Most lawyers are lazy but not Kevin. I would hire Kevin again if ever needed his services! Thanks for the hard work Kevin!

My fiancé and I originally contacted an attorney in Cincinnati to help with our K1 Visa process, however he seemed a bit…busy? Anyway, after the initial phone conversation and odd feeling, we were lucky enough to find Neil Fleischer. Neil was there EVERY step of the way, walking us through every aspect with respect, politeness, and a TRUE sense of caring! My (now wife) and I are truly blessed to have worked with him and were married earlier this year. I can’t speak highly enough of Neil and his team. He always responded right away, was there for a phone call if I was confused about anything, and is a great human being. We are now working with him for my wife’s change of status paperwork. You won’t find a more kind, caring, and knowledgeable attorney for immigration! I guarantee it! I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend him and his team, and my wife and I are forever in his debt. Thank you so much!!!!

I am free to just be my kids mom without being scared of what he will think or say. Andrew was transparent from day one and Jennifer was always there to listen. Since I filed for divorce in 2014 I’ve gone through plenty of attorneys and not one could ever come close to what this man accomplished. He asked me to trust him and I did. Thank you so very much for bringing peace to our lives.

He paid great attention to detail, and worked directly work the court officials to make sure my case was handled correctly. He was very thorough in making sure we took care of everything we needed to as the process progressed. He was also very fair with price to attain his services.

My situation was incredibly challenging. Arnie got me the absolute best result without question. I was charged with Felony DUI, Hit & Run. Most importantly, the injury was non-life-threatening and everyone walked away from the accident. However, I was facing jail time, a criminal record and would have to serve time in Colorado as someone who resides in Pennsylvania. I have a successful career in research and faced losing it all due to my poor decision. I spoke with every reputable attorney in the area, including the team who represented Kobe Bryant. However, from the minute I spoke to Arnie he assured me that this was a "hiccup in life" and that I would get through it. I will never forget that, and he was right. Arnie gathered all of the information not only the night of the accident, but of me and my personal situation, including the recent death of my father, successful contributions to society and collated the "full picture". I flew back and forth from PA to CO for hearings and Arnie always ensured it was smooth and necessary. He constantly reassured me that everything was under control and that we would take this to trial, if necessary. As an obsessive researcher, he would agree I was a very tough client to keep calm, but his confidence and aggressive mentality was evident and reassuring. I trusted and followed his instructions as I was told. Arnie got me the best possible and appropriate sentence, which consisted of only probation and standard DUI classes. His negotiations and discussions with the DA while providing an accurate description of me and my situation made all of the difference. I am forever grateful. If you ever need an attorney in the area, Arnie is your guy.

First of all from the bottom of my heart I like to thank Matt tyson law firm the entire team for being with me the entire process of my case this has been a traumatic emotional roller coaster journey. Special mention to Josh who represents my case fought for everything that I wanted in my child custody case. It was a difficult battle in chambers county, the judge and amicus were against me having my children. They were more worried about the school system than in the safety of my children. Josh fought and never backed down, we won the case and now my children will be safe with me. One thing i can tell you if your looking for an attorney that will fight for you don’t hesitate to hire Matt tyson law firm it’s worth every penny you won’t regret it. Their knowledge and expertise about the law is tremendously incredible that’s why they have 5 star reviews. Again thank you all from the bottom of my heart, for being there for me since the beginning. I definitely recommend Matt tyson law firm to everyone they’re not about the money they deliver results. God bless each and every one of you.

Jennifer Locke did the worst job representing me. There was very little communication with her during the process and when she did contact me she was yelling at me. She told me she couldn’t request items like split costs for extracurricular, life insurance, college funds, etc. She told me I couldn’t request to put in MSA yo have contact with grandparents after death. She pushed me to drop all 2 yrs of back pay and give in to extended visitation. And refused to fight for medical and psych custody, even though my ex hadn’t been in my kids lives for 2 years. It has been 2 years and I have learned from other attorneys what she did was so wrong. She just wanted the money with no work to represent me. She once put me on hold and didn’t realize I could hear her conversation with my ex’s lawyer and she was acting as if they were friends. I was told I would receive an official copy of my decree and I never received it. Only an email copy. Please please stay away.

I wish I could say nice and positive things about Ms.Locke and her paralegal Alisha. My whole experience was waiting for answers, direction and disappointment. Always conflicting and misleading information. I never felt secure in the information I was given and when meditation came it was more of a reunion and when time came to talk about my needs it was "standard" for mom and dad to have this and that rather than looking at the best interest of the child as they kept stating and his special needs. In the end I was not fully happy with what I got and felt as if I was more of a payment check for them and went to the next. I would NOT RECOMMEND anyone to this law firm.

In July of 2024, I was involved in a 3 car accident that could have gone terribly wrong. I was mailed multiple citations that would have ended my driving privileges. Also in the mail was an advertisement from Mr. Katz Law Office. Thank God I decided to acquire him, beacuse he was able to get all tickets dismissed due to negligence. The small fee was worth it. I'd rather have him fighting for me than to go in alone not knowing what my fate will be. I always say, money comes and goes, so pay for good representation to keep that cycle running.

Accused of rolling stop sign. Pulled over and issued 3 points plus the $171 ticket. Elliott told me he'd do his best to have the ticket reduced to no points and I'd still pay the fine. I am good with that. Day of the hearing - he calls - case dismissed entirely. No points. No ticket ever existed according to record now. #LEGEND - Best Chester County traffic attorney hands down.

I am deeply grateful to Mr. Manuel Leiva for his outstanding support and dedication during a case involving my friend, who faced false allegations of rape. Despite the other party’s loud and misleading claims, Mr. Leiva remained composed, focused, and detail-oriented. His professionalism and attention to even the smallest facts ensured that the truth prevailed, ultimately leading to my friend’s exoneration. Mr. Leiva’s integrity and commitment to justice are truly commendable, and I highly recommend him as a skilled and dependable advocate.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the outstanding work Manuel Leiva did in defending me in a protective order case that was unjustly filed by my wife. From the very first consultation, Manuel demonstrated exceptional professionalism, deep expertise, and genuine care for my situation. He took the time to thoroughly understand the details of my case, leaving no stone unturned in building a robust defense. Throughout the process, Manuel was a true advocate for my rights. He communicated with clarity and confidence, ensuring I was fully informed and prepared at every stage. His ability to navigate the complexities of the law was evident in the courtroom, where his sharp legal skills and compelling arguments led to a complete dismissal of the case. Thanks to Manuel’s dedication and tireless efforts, I am now able to move forward with my life. He brought not only legal expertise but also compassion and understanding during a very challenging time. I wholeheartedly recommend Manuel Leiva to anyone in need of a highly skilled and trustworthy attorney. He is, without a doubt, the best advocate you could have in your corner.

Requested a consultation and rearranged our schedule to have the appointment the receptionist scheduled- the lawyer didn’t call. After 15 minutes, we called and were told that that lawyer was in court, they could reschedule us. Rearranged our schedule again and never received the call at the scheduled time again. No courtesy notice that they couldn’t make the consultation again. Very disappointing.

Kenneth Sheffield is one of the most professional, confident, and assuring lawyers I’ve ever encountered. I found myself in a very unfortunate situation, and by the grace of God, I found the Rideout Law Group. Whether it was answering my questions at a minute’s notice, to transferring my case from the Public Defender’s Office with only a very short time frame available, Rideout Law Group handled absolutely every step with ease. Shortly after retaining a more professional and “by the book” counsel (Mr. Sheffield), compared to my assigned public defender, my case was ultimately dismissed. Do NOT play with your future and your record, especially in the state of Arizona. I would refer Mr. Sheffield and the Rideout Law Group to my family if the time ever came.

I worked with Connor and AJ with Cantor Law firm on my family law case, and I was very impressed with their level of expertise and the quality of representation. Connor and AJ were extremely knowledgeable, thorough and excelled at writing motions, which really got my point across. I believe this made a significant difference in my case, as their clear and compelling arguments helped strengthen my position. Connor was extremely well-informed about every detail of my case, even recalling critical information from months prior. His remarkable memory and dedication demonstrated a deep understanding of family law and ensured that no detail was overlooked. While the quality of the service was excellent, the fees were more than I expected going into it. Despite the cost, I believe the representation was worth the investment because, in the end, my children are all that matter. If you're looking for an attorney who is not only skilled but also excels in effective legal writing and strong representation, I highly recommend Connor but be prepared for higher-than-expected costs, as high-quality legal representation can come at a premium.

This was the first time we hired a lawyer, and Andrea Banks made the whole process easy to understand and very efficient. She was always on top of our needs and wishes being completed, and would regularly check in with us! We were so happy to have a lawyer we could call immediately if there were any sudden questions we needed answered, or any concerns we had. Andrea and her assistant Kendra are a wonderful team to work with and get the job done as soon as possible! We HIGHLY recommend this law office, but more specifically these two wonderful women who made sure we were well taken care of in our particular case!

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.
