After researching several attorneys I hired Regina as my lawyer to help with my divorce. I chose her for her experience, candor, and reputation as a family-oriented lawyer. I received all that and more. Regina is sensible and assertive while also being empathetic. She is an excellent communicator. I was well informed of my progress and what was required of me -- and only to the extent needed so my costs were not run up. She worked hard to achieve the best outcome for myself and my child(ren) while being professional and efficient. I was very happy with my decision. I couldn't have asked for anything more from Regina.

When first meeting Regina it was initially to create a pre-nuptial agreement, never thinking we would meet again to handle divorce proceedings. The prenuptial agreement was done timely, accurately and her advice was very exacting. When the separation/divorce was imminent she was not only a most knowledgeable legal representative but kind and emotionally available. Never did I expect to be navigated through such a most difficult time in my life with such caring. With Regina representing me I felt confident that my best interests were being taken care of and would highly recommend her.

I have had the pleasure having Angela Enholm representing me for my family court case. She works around the clock ensuring that my money is spent where it counts! My Children! She fights in court, she will advise you on courses to take to be proactive, to have that next step completed before the courts advise what each family will have to do to gain custody, or to keep custody. Angela will take the time to prep before court. Angela also has an amazing staff, that is on top of all documents, and exhibits needed for filing! My recommendation when seeking a consultation or representation would be Angela Enholm all the way!

Relentless, resilient, unbridled, unwavering, steadfast, dogged, persistent, and tenacious are just some of the words I using when describing Enholm law firm. I will start from the beginning, Angela and her staff have always been professional first and for most but have that personal touch that makes a HUGE difference when dealing with family law matters. Everything in life starts with communication. Enholm law firm has always answered the phone with in just a few rings and returns emails in a timely manner. If I didn’t know that Angela and her staff had other clients I would think that I was the only person they dealt with. I cannot say enough about the amount of support that Enholm law has provided during the duration of my family matter. They have answered all of my questions in a supporting way without given me a false sense of hope at the same time. Enholm law does everything they can to reduce the amount of stress their clients are experiencing. If you need to go to trial with Enholm law you will feel very confident heading into the court room. They are meticulous in their preparation and make sure that you completely understand what is going to happen. Every person I have had the opportunity to interact with at Enholm law is first and foremost a professional and second a friend that is there to listen to your needs and concerns. I will always recommend Enholm law to anyone that has a family matter that needs legal assistants.

David handled my post-divorce case for six years mostly alone, opposing a team of two attorneys. He was able to deal with my doctors, forensic expert and more. David coped well with pressure and stress. I believe that his vision and ability to strategize were critical to obtaining a satisfactory outcome.
Such pressure on him became impossible in the last year. We reached out to Lorri. She agreed to join, immediately started to study the case, assisted in brain-storming and prepared a quality trial testimony. Lorri's amiable personality was also a positive factor.

David helped me through a very difficult request to amend alimony. As soon as he took my case, I knew I was in good hands. He was very knowledgeable, and responsive. He also made sure that I knew my rights. Without him, I'm sure I would have lost my case. Instead, we had a very favorable response.

I hired Attorney David Feldman to handle my divorce. It was the most difficult and upsetting time in my life but having him as my attorney really helped me to get through it. Attorney Feldman really cares about his clients he makes this process bearable. During the time that my case took to settle David always made himself available to me he was responsive and helpful always explaining each phase of the process. He is knowledge, very experienced and highly skilled. I would recommend him to all of my friends because if they have to deal with this you want someone you can count on.

I have known Eliza for years and she has always been in contact whenever I needed help. She will fight for your justice and will always be there for you. She has always remained loyal and has stuck with me through thick and thin. There has not been a better attorney that I have met, and I 100% recommend her.

The only way to describe Eliza is to say she truly is my hero. Before I met Eliza I was fighting a custody battle for 3 years and even though I had other attorneys during this time I still felt like I was alone in the middle of a battlefield with no shield.
After the the first phone call with Eliza I felt like I could breath and finally start relaxing. Once Eliza became my attorney and had my back l started sleeping better at night. I no longer felt alone and weaponless on a battlefield, Eliza swooped in like Wonder Woman stood in front of me and protected me with her iron shield.
She gave me advice on how to heal and not only gave me the courage to keep fighting but showed me how a true attorney should be. She is professional, smart and fights with passion. I never would of imagined being so blessed to have her representing me. I truly can't say enough how grateful I am to have her as my attorney. Being able to sit back and relax in a custody battle and know she got this!!!
Eliza is amazing in the courtroom! I trust her and know she is giving 110% every day!!! No attorney compares to Eliza Hope aka " Wonder Woman ". I give her 5 stars because that's the highest they let me rate her but there's not enough stars in the sky that I would give her for all the dedication she puts into her work.

We absolutely loved working with Genevieve. She was attentive, quick to respond, and as knowledgeable as anyone could ask for. This was our second time purchasing a home with her legal counsel and we'll plan on continuing to use her every time down the road. She may be the only person I've come across who's responding to emails quicker than I am at 11PM. We can't recommend her highly enough.

I've had the pleasure of Knowing Mr. Sheehan for several years. We have worked on many cases as co-counsel, and I have had the great privilege of learning first hand of the quality of his work and his high ethical standards in dealing with all things legal. He's what I call a "go to guy" and you can count on him doing whatever he says he will do. I for one count Mr. Sheehan as an esteemed colleague and valued friend and would recommend him highly to anyone that needs professional services of a lawyer.

What can I say about CH except that he is the perfect hybrid of resilience and compassion. His innate ability to see obstacles in such a unique manner which enables him to figure out a solution no lawyer will see coming is what makes him THE MAN! He won't use a sledgehammer or a huge pogo stick to get through or over the wall.... he simply dissolves the weakest weight - bearing brick of the wall and watches her come tumbling down! My divorce and child custody issue is as messy as it gets. International - possible kidnapping, physical threats - all the pieces for a really good Lifetime made for TV movie. But with CH on my (and your) side, he brings his legal mop and pail to clean everything up like there was never a mess. Stop searching..... CH is your future lawyer,,,,

Brilliant is the best way to describe Cody Hayes. I had an extensive, and very complicated child custody case that spanned over several years (I used many different well known attorneys and still did not accomplish my goal). Cody Hayes is extremely intelligent and knowledgeable about family law and noticed things that my previous attorneys all missed. Ultimately, he made what I had thought was impossible actually happen for me. After all these years of fighting with my ex husband in and outside of court, Cody helped us work to find the solution. Now my ex husband and I are able to communicate, and co-parent. Thank you so much Cody!

I highly recommend O'Connell Law for family law issues. I hired her for an issue after my divorce was finalized and the quality of representation was much better than what I received during the divorce process. She explained every step of the process and I never felt lost or like I wasn't sure what was happening or why or where I was in the process. Her communication with me left me feeling confident in both her as an attorney but also confident in my decisions during the process. She gave me MUCH information regarding each possible decision and I was equipped with the knowledge I needed to make the best possible decisions for my family. I know, from personal experience, that not all attorneys take the time to explain all of the information that you need during divorce, modifications and all that goes along with family law issues. She's patient with questions and very responsive. When Jill was not in the office, or otherwise unavailable, her paralegal was quick to respond or communicate information that I needed. She would always communicate my questions to Ms. O'Connell if she wasn't sure of the answer. This was important to me since, many times, at a different legal office, I would receive incorrect information from the paralegal, which would ultimately cost me money.
Divorce and modifications are issues that you need need someone walking with you, guiding you through the process, step by step, and that's exactly what you get with this law firm!
I've recommended O'Connell Law to friends and will use her again in the future, if needed.

I approached the Law Office of Kelli Allen in about February of this year ( 2023) to help me submit my Green Card Application. I was assigned to Berna Chacon- a bilingual specialist in data accumulation for Green Card submissions. Thank G-d I was. She was absolutely outstanding. I mean truly- it took me a while to accumulate the necessary data ( necessary being whatever Berna told me to put together) and we submitted my application in June of this year. Today is November 24, 2023, and guess what- I have my Green Card Truly great work by Berna -what a help she was! I couldnt have done it so seamlessly without her!. Prices at this office are reasonable to. And nice, and accomodating people! I would go out of my way to recommend this law office and Berna to handle anybody's immigration matters. What a great job they did and I am one happy camper!

Being forced into an unwanted divorce situation, I asked our business attorney's for the best recommendation they could give me (Lasher Firm in Seattle) and it was Mr. James Shipman. I can't say enough on how excellent Mr. Shipman has been as well as his staff in handling me as well as the divorce situation. He has been kind and understanding as well as very thorough. The cost(s) involved was far better than I expected. He was very fair to both my ex wife and myself during the mediation process and gave me excellent advice through out. I can not recommend this gentleman enough as I will recommend him to any one that needs help as such. He gives attorney's a GREAT name!

James handled our custody mediation case. From the start he was straightforward with us about the probable outcome. He laid out the risks but also what the likely hood of gaining out desired parenting plan was in modification. His expertise in this field is hard to come by, and being able to trust what advice he was giving gave us piece of mind of a very uncertain time. His experience in mediation was helpful to help walk is through what to expect and we believe it's because of him that we were able to come to an agreement outside of a trial setting.

Our working relationship with Mr. Seigler spanned over 4 years. It was not associated with criminal defense, but with civil problems regarding an easement. Mr. Seigler was contacted & hired after another local lawyer was paid to get resolution to the problem, but failed to take timely action. Mr. Seigler worked diligently in a timely fashion to attain success for us in this difficult, drawn-out case. We highly recommend Mr. Seigler!

A few years ago, I faced a complicated business situation. I asked a local attorney if he would be interested in assisting me. He said the case was beyond his realm. He said the person he would recommend would be Darrell Seigler of Ottawa.
Darrell did a great job in a difficult case. He faced 4 or 5 legal teams and produced excellent results for the complexity of the case.
There were no surprises.
He kept me informed throughout.
He kept costs reasonable.
I have used his services on several other occasions. At times, I have just used him for advice.
I recommend him highly

I hired Chris 3 years ago to update my Trust, Will and Medical Declaration. I found her to be personable, professional and prompt. She offered advice and suggestions that my previous attorney had missed. She also set up a Legal Vault account that included a wallet card to give emergency medical personnel immediate access to medical information and directives.
Recently I was unable to locate the user name and password needed to renew Legal Vault. I called Chris' office and within a day she contacted Legal Vault, emailed me the information I needed and renewed my account for me.
I've worked with several personal attorneys throughout my life and Chris has been the most prompt and responsive. I highly recommend her.

Fred went above and beyond his duties for my wife and I. We were set to close on our home in L.I. when Fred Lutzen noticed we were getting a bad deal on our mortgage loan. We had excellent credit and were going to close with a package that had a higher interest rate. We were not aware and would have closed conteny with having a home. He shared this information with us and we ended up getting a new loan and literally ended up saving $4,000 in closing and about $90,000 in overall costs through out the course of a 30 year loan. In addition, Fred was always available and kept in constant communication with us. Whenever I am presented with the opportunity, I would refer anyone to Fred Lutzen.

Again, I appreciate her and would highly recommend her!

Donna Smiedt was recommended to me by a dentist friend of mine. He himself had been through a few divorces and knew who was good and who was not. Not only is Donna incredibly proficient at what she does professionally, She is a very compassionate caring and helpful person as well! She knew how to communicate well with both myself & my now ex-husband. I got an incredible settlement -fair & generous. Partly because she was able to speak in a non-confrontational tone with my ex and convince him that it was best to be fair. I’m quite sure no other lawyer could have attained those results due to his type “A” personality. There are so many examples I have of how compassionate and how she helped me mentally through what was the worst time in my life but we don’t have enough room here. Let me just leave it to say don’t regret this huge decision in your life… Make sure you choose the right lawyer.

Carolina assisted me with an ongoing matter that I had with a neighbor in the apartment complex I lived in. For over 1 year, we had multiple complaints with these neighbors to the building management that included several calls to the local police department. Unfortunately, our building management didn't do anything to rectify the situation. Our complaints really fell on deaf ears.
All that changed when I reached out and hired Carolina to handle the matter. Carolina got immediate results after we hired her. She was able to not only get building management's attention but was instrumental in helping us reach a release agreement to break our lease earlier. I really appreciate how Carolina handled this matter. My only regret was not hiring her earlier. I give her an A+ for service and an A+ for getting results.

Word cannot express my gratitude for Carolina Calderon. Her legal knowledge and dedication to getting my security deposit back were phenomenal.

I worked with Kim on a contract that I had signed but felt like I was at risk. She was incredibly responsive, I told her it was a time concern and she got a very detailed, thoughtful, intelligent opinion to me on the contracts in a very timely manner. She was so great at answering all of my questions. She seemed to care about my situation which made me feel so helped and not just like a business transaction. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who needs help. I really enjoyed working with her at a time of high stress in my life. Amazing lawyer and amazing person!! Thank you Kim!!!!

I had reached out to Jean to discuss/review a separation agreement that I received from my employer. She was very accessible - I was able to speak with her directly on my first outreach (vs. many other firms who required a detailed questionnaire or discussion with a paralegal). Based upon that first conversation, it was clear that she had good intentions (it wasn't all about how much she would make from the settlement) - her desire was to help me achieve an appropriate outcome. She came across as experienced, measured and fair. I ultimately had her step in to help with the negotiation and was happy with the overall result. Jean was recommended to me by another employment lawyer that is highly regarded - very glad I had the opportunity to work with her.

When a person is wrongly terminated it takes away more than your job. You loose the essence of who you are, your confidence, your trust in people, how you interact with the outside world. You feel ashamed. But, Jean was able to change all that for me and my termination turned out to be a blessing. Jean gave me hope from the very first conversation. She and Katherine won my case and the money was great but what they really did was continually make me know that the termination wasn’t my fault. They believed in me. I lived across the country from Jean but it felt as though she was right next door. She was in contact when necessary and was always available when I needed to ask something. She allowed me to make decisions on my case and always gave me options and suggestions. Her guidance and in sight was right on target, I trusted her and she was very successful for me. I am forever grateful.

I am so thankful to have had Dave Currie as my lawyer. He represented me in an automobile accident case and did an incredible job! He not only got an unbelievable result for me, he kept me fully informed at all times - from our initial consultation to the conclusion of the case. He answered all of my questions promptly and professionally and always treated me with kindness and respect. He was always easily-accessible by phone or email, which I really appreciated. His remarkable range of medical, as well as, legal knowledge helped me to understand and face the stressful issues with ease. He is a highly-skilled lawyer, a great negotiator, and an absolute pleasure to work with! I highly recommend him. "Don't worry, call Currie!"

Dave Currie was the best person and lawyer I could have found for my case. My case was a sexual assault case, the incident occurred at a nationally known massage establishment by a licensed massage therapist. Needless to say the case could have been extremely uncomfortable for me, but Dave made every step of the process comfortable and as easy as possible. When anything uncomfortable came up Dave always had my back and made me feel like we were a team, he even took the time to get to know my family that would come along to some of the meeting with me. When it came time for the depositions and negotiations I was extremely nervous, but Dave was knowledgeable and honest about how the proceedings go and it helped a lot with my nerves. Dave’s knowledge, experience, and diligence rewarded me a substantial settlement. Dave consistently kept me in the loop about what was going on in my case, as well as answered any questions, calls, emails, or texts that I sent his way. Dave not only made me feel like I had an amazing lawyer on my side to make sure I wouldn’t get taken advantage of, he also made me feel like I had a friend on my side that wanted to make sure that I was going to be emotionally strong once everything was over.

Dave Currie is an outstanding lawyer. I was injured in and explosion that left me with permanent hearing damage. Due to my field of business, it was a career ending injury and very important to me. The first lawyer I contacted was horrible. The initial consult was great but it wasnt long before I was wondering what else I needed to be doing and where my case stood. After numerous attempts to reach him and few, if any, return calls, I researched specialized ear injury lawyers and found Dave Currie. After speaking to Dave on the phone for a brief description of his expertise, I fired my current lawyer and went to meet Dave and his team. Let me just say that immediately upon entering his office, I felt amazed at how professional and courteous everyone was. I sat down at a huge table and had 3 people completely focused on what I had to say. Kenya Cantrell, one of Dave's associates, began taking notes, and was ALWAYS available when Dave was not. She promptly returned phone calls and emails, and followed up with all my questions and even questions that I didn't know I had at the time. I was also very impressed at the level of communication that I had with Dave. There were quite a few times that he returned calls and emails on the weekends and days he was out of the office or off. Dave's knowledge of the specifics of my injury were very impressive. He knew some of the doctors that I have seen on a first name basis and was personally sympathetic to my condition. He was very honest with me at all times and if at any point he was unfamiliar with something, he said so, and promptly researched information and followed up with me about it. Dave went above and beyond to make sure that I knew what was going on and what all I needed to do while we were awaiting a hearing. During the time before my hearing, I had some troubling family problems and Dave was genuinely concerned for me and what was going on. He postponed a few things while I dealt with them and did not hound me into continuing my case until I was ready. He is very professional yet so comfortable talking to you, its like speaking to an old friend. As time started boiling down, we scheduled a deposition. Dave walked me through what would happen and gave me the direction that I needed to enter the deposition with confidence. After about 5 hours of depositions, things went exactly as Dave had explained. A few days passed and the negotiations began. Dave informed me in great detail what similar cases had settled for and suggested that I not set my sights too high. After many counter offers and Dave's expert negotiating, we settled for about 10 percent higher than the highest settlement for similar and some exceeding the damage that I suffered. I am so pleased that I chose Dave Currie. This was the only time I ever needed a lawyer and I was so relieved that everything went so smoothly. I couldn't have asked for anything more in a representative or a friend.

I had a consultation with Gina to get a Will and Trust in place. Gina was very informative and educated me on the specific documents that I would need to get in place. She was very patient with me as I asked many questions during my consultation and in follow up emails .
when I returned to do the final paperwork, she had everything fully prepared and she walked through it all in detail with me.
Gina is a true professional. She was very welcoming and friendly from the first interaction and she is a great listener. She really captured my interests and delivered them in my Trust and Will.
I would highly recommend Gina!

Gina was very knowledgeable and listened to all our concerns. We hadn’t updated our will in many years so it all had to be redone. She was patient and caring and gave us as much guidance as we needed. The fact that she charges a flat fee rate was comforting to know that each time we spoke, we wouldn’t be “on the clock” with more fees. I would highly recommend Gina for estate planning and any other services she provides.

What a Mediation Lawyer Can Do for You
A mediation lawyer specializes in resolving disputes outside of the courtroom through a process called mediation. Mediation involves a neutral third-party mediator who helps the disputing parties reach a mutually acceptable agreement. Mediation lawyers can represent clients in various matters, including divorce, business disputes, employment conflicts, contract issues, personal injury claims, and more.
Unlike litigation, mediation is a less adversarial and more cost-effective way to settle disputes, often leading to faster resolutions and preserving relationships between the parties involved.
When Should I Hire a Mediation Lawyer?
Consider hiring a mediation lawyer when you’re involved in a dispute and want to avoid the time, expense, and stress of going to court. Common reasons to hire a mediation lawyer include:
- Divorce or child custody disputes: A mediation lawyer can help you reach a fair settlement on issues like property division, alimony, and parenting arrangements without going to court.
- Business or contract disputes: For disagreements such as contract disputes, partnership conflicts, or intellectual property issues, a mediation lawyer can assist in resolving the matter through negotiation.
- Employment disputes: Issues like wrongful termination, discrimination, or wage disputes can be addressed through mediation to find common ground and avoid lawsuits.
- Personal injury cases: Mediation can help both parties agree on compensation in cases like car accidents or slip-and-fall claims without a prolonged court battle.
- Property disputes: Disputes over property ownership, landlord-tenant issues, or boundary disagreements can be settled more amicably through mediation.
- Family or inheritance disputes: Mediation can help resolve conflicts over wills or trusts without further dividing the family.
What Does a Mediation Lawyer Do?
A mediation lawyer provides a range of services to help clients resolve disputes through negotiation and mutual agreement. Their responsibilities often include:
- Representing your interests: Acting as your advocate during mediation to ensure your rights are protected and you understand your legal options.
- Preparing for mediation: Reviewing the facts of the case, gathering necessary documents, and advising you on potential resolutions.
- Facilitating communication: Helping to facilitate open and constructive dialogue between parties to clarify points of contention.
- Negotiating settlements: Assisting in negotiating fair and balanced settlement terms that are in your best interest.
- Drafting mediation agreements: Preparing the official mediation agreement that outlines the terms of the settlement, which is often legally binding.
- Avoiding litigation: Aiming to reach a settlement that eliminates the need for a court trial, saving time and resources for both parties.
- Handling complex legal issues: Explaining the legal implications of various settlement terms in cases with complicated legal matters.
How Are Mediation Lawyers Paid?
Mediation lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the time involved. Common payment methods include:
- Hourly rate: Charging an hourly fee ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on experience and case complexity.
- Flat fee: For simpler mediations, some lawyers may offer a flat fee covering all legal work involved in the process.
- Retainer: In ongoing or complex cases, a retainer may be required as an upfront payment billed against as work progresses.
Discuss fees and payment structures with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand the cost of mediation services.
How Much Does a Mediation Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a mediation lawyer depends on several factors, including the case's complexity, the lawyer’s experience, and the time required to resolve the dispute. General cost estimates include:
- Hourly rates: Typically between $150 and $500 per hour.
- Flat fees: For simple mediations, fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.
- Total mediation costs: Can vary widely, from $2,000 to $10,000 for straightforward cases, up to $10,000 to $50,000 or more for complex disputes.
Always request a detailed cost estimate during your consultation to understand total expenses.
Top Questions to Ask a Mediation Lawyer
Before hiring a mediation lawyer, consider asking the following questions:
-
What experience do you have with mediation cases like mine?
Ensure the lawyer has relevant experience in handling similar disputes. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify the fee structure and request an estimate based on your specific case. -
What is the likelihood of resolving my case through mediation?
Seek an honest assessment of whether mediation is suitable for your situation. -
How long will the mediation process take?
Inquire about the expected timeline and number of sessions required. -
Will you personally handle my case?
Confirm who will manage your mediation and represent your interests. -
Can we pursue alternative dispute resolution (ADR) if necessary?
Ask about other forms of ADR, such as arbitration, if mediation doesn't resolve the conflict.
How to Check the Credibility of a Mediation Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable mediation lawyer, take the following steps:
- Verify their bar status: Confirm with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed and has no disciplinary history.
- Look for mediation experience: Review their website or professional profile for specialization in mediation and successful case histories.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Check platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google for client feedback.
- Ask for references: Request references from past clients familiar with their mediation skills.
- Check for certifications: Look for certifications from organizations like the American Arbitration Association (AAA) or the Association for Conflict Resolution (ACR).
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To maximize the effectiveness of your initial meeting, bring the following:
- Relevant documents: Any materials related to the dispute, such as contracts, emails, financial records, or court filings.
- List of key issues: A detailed list of the main points of contention that need resolution.
- Timeline of events: A chronological account of events leading up to the dispute, including prior resolution attempts.
- Goals for the mediation: Be prepared to discuss your desired outcomes and areas where you're willing to compromise.
- Questions for the lawyer: Any queries about the mediation process, fees, or their approach to dispute resolution.
Being well-prepared will help the lawyer assess your case effectively and provide the best possible advice for resolving your dispute through mediation.
