Very disappointed in the answer I was given today…. I was recommended to contact this company by the disability hub and I wish I hadn’t. Whoever it was I spoke to was nice but couldn’t give me any answers or suggestions…. I will not recommend anyone call here after my experience.

I would give Home Line all of the stars that are in the sky if I could! I can’t begin to express how much Gigi has helped me and how many times, all while never having any negativity or impatience with me. She’s so knowledgeable in so many aspects of renting, owning and you can tell she truly wants and loves to help people to the best of her ability! Gigi, I know I said I’d write a good review for you a long time ago and I’m sorry it took this long. You deserve to be recognized for what a wonderful human being you are! You’ve help so many people I can’t begin to imagine! I can’t remember which person I talked to said to thank you for him as well but I bet if anyone who knew you and I mentioned I was going to give you a good review, they all would ask to add their names to the lists of people who want to thank you from the bottoms of all of our hearts. Wishing you all of the best the world can give you! Sending you Love 💞 & Laughter 🤣 every single day! Ty 🦋 The world is better because you are in it!

I honestly sleep better now knowing my estate is in great, trustworthy hands. Tim made this process painless, provided thought provoking questions and gave as much guidance as I requested. Benefit from Tim's expertise and warm way of assisting you with a potentially emotional topic.

My husband and I put off our estate planning for a long time. We didn't know how to find someone we could trust. Thankfully, some friends of ours told us about their experience working with TJ. They felt he was an excellent attorney and had handled their affairs well. We wholeheartedly agree with their assessment! TJ was very responsive. We initially contacted him through his website and he responded to our inquiry within hours. My husband is a pilot, and it can be difficult to schedule meetings with him. TJ worked within our time constraints and quickly rearranged when needed. Once we were in our face to face meeting, TJ, and his assistant, Gretchen, listened well, explained thoroughly, and never made us feel inadequate or judged by some of the "off the beaten track" requests we had. Talking about death and planning your estate can be stressful, but TJ and his staff made it easy. If you are looking for a kind, very knowledgable, no pressure attorney, my husband and I highly recommend contacting and working with Timothy J. Scott.

I met John Daly through a mutual friend. I had been arrested for the first time in my life during the past year and had made some mistakes in handling the terms of my probation. I was very stressed out about my situation and the possibility of having my adjudicated 5th degree felony possession charge become a conviction as a result. John offered his help on the spot and was very confident about the facts of my case. This was very comforting to me as I had no experience in dealing with legal trouble on this level. He was reassuring that the actions I had taken since my missteps had put me on a path to a better life. He was able to get my missed probation hearing rescheduled and the resulting bench warrant dropped. When it came time to return to court to address the issues, he showed up confident and well prepared. He provided the counsel I needed to achieve the best possible outcome, specifically no jail time and the preservation of my original probation terms. He did this with the utmost care and concern for me while exhibiting a very confident, competent and professional demeanor. He is most definitely someone I would recommend to family or friends. I can say without a doubt he is someone you would be glad to have in your corner.

An overall great experience with John. He helped negotiate the best possible outcome, in my eyes, that was in reason for my 3rd DUI. He's been very attentive and available to questions and concerns regarding my case. He was also very generous and extremely reasonable on payment options. I would highly recommend John to anyone looking for a lawyer that's knowledgeable, professional and someone who actually cares about you as a client. Thanks again John!

In short, John is the guy you want on your side--whatever the issue. A longer answer would take more than the 3886 characters I have remaining. But I'll just say this: from start to finish, John was always there to answer questions, provide counsel and educate me about the road ahead. Always made me a priority. From our first meeting, he made an uncomfortable situation more palatable thanks to his complete lack of ego or pretense. John was very up front with me about expectations and offered no guarantees that we would get the result we wanted. Though, in the end, that's exactly what we got. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a smart attorney who can truly help you out.

My experience with Kluzak Law was fantastic! They kept me informed and up to date on where we were during my bankruptcy. Ms. Kluzak was professional, and answered all of my questions. She explained how it would work and what to do next. I would highly recommend Kluzak Law to anyone needing legal assistance!

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.
  10. Are there alternative ways to resolve my legal issue?
    Discuss options like mediation, arbitration, or settlement to resolve the issue efficiently.

Can a Lawyer Represent Me in Courts Outside of Bloomington, Minnesota?

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.
