Yuliya Fisher-Nayyer is an excellent attorney. I had a tricky child support situation, where my ex was trying to get more than she actually was owed. Yuliya's careful reading of my divorce agreement allowed her to make clear arguments that convinced my ex and her attorney to accept the proper settlement, and we were able to resolve the situation with only one court date where the judge approved the agreement we had worked out. Yuliya was very honest in her assessment of my situation, and very clear in her explanations of what I owed and did not owe, which I appreciated because I did not fully understand the language in the divorce agreement and would probably have overpaid if I had not hired her. She also was completely committed to my case. She was excellent at communicating, both with me and the opposing attorney, and I never felt like my case was anything other than her top priority, even though I know she had many other cases at the same time. The advice she gave me was spot on, and everything worked out almost exactly as she had predicted, which is impressive given how many variables there were in my case. And she was also careful about how many hours she committed to my case so that I would not get overbilled for her services, which was a refreshing change of pace from lawyers I have dealt with in the past who seemed eager to rack up their billable hours. I really appreciate all the work she did on my case, and would hire her again in a second.

I had a very tough case about divorce and child issues, I was very depressed of all the negative impacts given by the other party until I met Yuliya. She is very conscientious about all the details, her attitude of working and her empathy has turned the table. I cant find enough kind words to express my sincere appreciation to her. I just want to say having her as my attorney is the most correct decision I have ever made, and I felt very fortunate to have worked with her and won the battle together. I also need to thank my friend who referred Yuliya to me!

I had the pleasure of working with Yuliya M. Fisher-Nayyer, Esq. I was on the verge of being railroaded by my soon to be ex-wife's attorney in our separation agreement. Yuliya took the time to explain the verbiage of the agreement and the consequences if I signed what I was given. It was a real eyeopener! I highly recommend Yuliya for and Divorce or Family legal issues. You will not be disappointed with her knowledge of the law and her ability to defend your rights as her client!! Thank you, Mark A. Johnson

I am writing this review to express my deepest gratitude to Ms. Kimberly L. Winslow for her outstanding assistance in navigating the complex world of Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) on behalf of my disabled child. Kim demonstrated an unparalleled level of expertise in special education law. Her in-depth knowledge and understanding of the intricacies involved in crafting effective IEPs were evident during every step of the process. She not only guided me through the legalities but also provided invaluable insights into the best strategies to advocate for my child's unique needs. Thanks to Kim's unwavering dedication, my child now has access to the tailored program he absolutely needed. In addition to Kim's legal prowess, she consistently demonstrated empathy and understanding towards my family's unique situation. This personal touch made the IEP process feel less daunting and more like a collaborative effort to secure the best possible future for my son. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Kimberly Winslow to any family navigating the complexities of special education law. My experience with Kim has been nothing short of exceptional, and I am forever grateful for the positive impact she has had on my son's life. Thank you, Kim, for your unwavering support and dedication.

We are thrilled with Kim's guidance. She is clear, responsive, knowledgeable and sympathetic to our real struggle with public school. Kim made the daunting task to get my son out of public school and into an out placement in the shorter, quickest least expensive way. I could not be happier with her work.

When it comes to special education laws, Kimberly really knows her stuff. My son was struggling in school despite getting relatively good grades. She helped us navigate the referral and evaluation process and ultimately secure special education services. Additionally, she was willing to work within my limited means and helped repair my family's relationship with the school. I am so grateful to have found Kimberly.

What Questions Should I Ask Before Hiring a Lawyer?

Hiring the right lawyer is crucial for the success of your case. Here are some important questions to ask during your initial consultation:

  1. What experience do you have with cases similar to mine?
    Ensure the lawyer has relevant experience in the specific area of law pertaining to your case.
  2. How do you charge for your services, and what are the estimated costs?
    Understand the fee structure, including hourly rates, flat fees, retainer fees, and any additional expenses.
  3. Who will be handling my case?
    Find out if the lawyer will handle your case personally or delegate tasks to other attorneys or paralegals.
  4. What is your approach to resolving cases like mine?
    Learn about their strategy, whether they prefer negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
  5. What potential outcomes can I expect?
    While no lawyer can guarantee results, they can provide an assessment of possible scenarios based on their experience.
  6. How will you communicate with me throughout the process?
    Establish expectations for updates, preferred communication methods, and response times.
  7. What is the expected timeline for my case?
    Get an estimate of how long the process may take from start to finish.
  8. Do you have references from past clients?
    Testimonials or references can provide insight into the lawyer's professionalism and effectiveness.
  9. What challenges do you foresee in my case?
    Understanding potential obstacles helps you prepare and sets realistic expectations.

    Discuss options like mediation, arbitration, or settlement to resolve the issue efficiently.

Can a Lawyer Represent Me in Courts Outside of Natick, Massachusetts?

Whether a lawyer can represent you in courts outside of your city or state depends on their licensure and the jurisdiction of the court:

  • Within the Same State:
    Lawyers licensed in a particular state can typically practice anywhere within that state, including all cities and counties. They can represent you in both state and federal courts located in that state.
  • Outside of Their Licensed State:
    If your case is in a different state, the lawyer must be licensed in that state to represent you. However, there are exceptions:
    • Pro Hac Vice Admission: An out-of-state lawyer can request special permission to represent a client in a specific case in another state. This requires filing a motion with the court and often working in conjunction with a local attorney.
    • Federal Courts: If your case is in federal court, a lawyer licensed in any state may be able to represent you, provided they are admitted to practice in that particular federal court.
  • International Representation:
    For cases outside the United States, different rules apply, and the lawyer may need to comply with the foreign country's legal requirements or collaborate with local counsel.

It's important to discuss your specific situation with the lawyer to determine if they can represent you in the desired jurisdiction and what steps may be necessary to do so.

How to Check the Credibility of a Lawyer

Before hiring a lawyer, it's crucial to verify their credibility and ensure they're qualified to handle your case:

  • Verify Their License:
    Check with your state's bar association to confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing. Most state bar websites have an online directory for this purpose.
  • Experience and Specialization:
    Ensure the lawyer specializes in the area of law relevant to your case. Review their website, professional profiles, and case history.
  • Disciplinary Record:
    Look up any history of disciplinary actions or complaints through the state bar association's records.
  • Client Reviews and Testimonials:
    Read reviews on legal directories like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, Google, or Yelp to gauge client satisfaction and experiences.
  • Professional Memberships:
    Membership in professional organizations or specialty bar associations can indicate a commitment to their field and adherence to high ethical standards.
  • Awards and Recognitions:
    Honors from reputable organizations reflect expertise and a positive reputation in the legal community.
  • Consultation Assessment:
    Use the initial consultation to evaluate their communication skills, responsiveness, and willingness to address your concerns.
  • Ask for References:
    A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their abilities and professionalism.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your initial meeting with a lawyer, come prepared with:

  • Relevant Documents:
    Bring all documents related to your case, such as:
    • Contracts or agreements
    • Correspondence (emails, letters, texts)
    • Legal notices or court papers
    • Financial records (if applicable)
    • Evidence (photos, videos, receipts)
  • Written Summary:
    Prepare a concise written summary of your situation, including key dates, events, and parties involved. This helps the lawyer quickly understand the context.
  • List of Questions:
    Write down any questions you have about your case, the legal process, fees, or the lawyer's experience.
  • Financial Information:
    If your case involves financial matters, bring relevant documents like pay stubs, tax returns, bank statements, or invoices.
  • Contact Information:
    Provide details of any witnesses or other parties relevant to your case, including their names and contact information.
  • Personal Identification:
    Bring a valid photo ID for verification purposes.
  • Pen and Notebook:
    Take notes during the consultation to remember important points discussed.
  • Budget Constraints:
    Be ready to discuss your budget and any financial limitations so the lawyer can provide appropriate guidance on fees and payment options.
  • Openness and Honesty:
    Be prepared to discuss your case candidly. Full disclosure allows the lawyer to give accurate advice and anticipate potential challenges.
