First of all my contract with "Goldsand Cinque" stated Goldsand's retired so it's just Robert Cinque. In my opinion if your able bargain with used car dealers and sly contractors you might get 2 star work from Mr. Cinque. He managed to go through a retainer double the going rate with an incomplete Discovery, no Deposition, no custody issues and a two phone call "negotiation" with opposing council. Mr. Cinque neglected to consult me prior to issuing the Demand for Disclosure nor where their follow ups to correct the stated omissions. Omissions included a property deed to prove joint ownership where spouse had put me on title. Proof spouse used separate funds for another jointly owned/purchased property also omitted; despite the forensic CPA opinion spouse had fleeced comparable funds from me prior to purchase. He convinced me to end Disclosure because he claimed spouse had offered the more valuable of two properties stating it was the best I could. That afternoon he called practically shouting at times that I had to take the less valuable property (-50k ). This was spouse's offer prior to engaging Mr. Cinque. Beside divorces Mr. Cinque stated he offers notary services, all clerical services were executed competently.

Robert Cinque is a razor sharp attorney who defended my case against another attorney bringing suit against me. I knew I chose well witnessing him handle my deposition with such professionalism. It was evident upon the cross-examination of the plaintiff, that Mr. Cinque does his homework and leaves no stone unturned! When going to trial, with a jury, for several days, one never knows what the outcome might be. Witnessing Mr. Cinque's cross examination of the plaintiff and the manner in which he presents evidence to the courtroom, with his low keyed quiet competence and integrity, shows how effective a lawyer he is. He won my case on every count against another attorney as the jury rendered a verdict in favor of me.

I would recommend Thomas to anyone! Great at communicating and our closings went incredibly smooth. He even took the time to set up POA so we didn't have to attend closing in person!

I went to a seminar, was impressed and met with him one on one. I do not have "a lot" of money..that didn't matter... He listened to me and made me feel safe and secure in what he could do for me. I trust him and love his staff.

Though my husband refused to believe he was very ill, we both heard the doctors tell us he had a cancer he had probably gotten while serving in VietNam. We had nothing in place...no will, no trust, nothing even on paper! I looked on line for a nearby lawyer/estate planner and the God's were on my side that day! I phoned and made an appointment for us to visit with Leo McGrath. I believe we were there for about 2 hours, and by the time we left his office, we were in total agreement that we were on the right track to securing and entrusting our estate, and the investment and distrubution of our funds, to this firm. It is now 5 years later, my husband has passed, our money is secure in trust accounts, and I have invested my funds, with much success, thanks to the Leo McGrath Law Firm and Wealthcare LLC.

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 Brewster, New York?

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.
