end of day and needed to return a Verizon box, and Jim aka Owner so he says, was getting his totals for the day, he was already un-pleasant, let him know I was returning Verizon wifi box, the took it out of the box for serial # - looked it up in the system and couldn't find anything and wanted the order #, let him know I didn't have an e mail from Verizon and he started to yell at me and said he couldn't help, let him know he didn't need to yell at me and I would go get my phone to double check e mails..I turned to look at him and his co worked with a bandana on his head and round glasses and they were laughing that I was going to check for e mail on phone I had left in car, when I went back in I was upset they were laughing at me and that he raised his voice he said he had a camera and was taping everything so I said hi to camera and said my name, he continued to raise his voice and let him know I did not want to work with him and he laughed again..If this so called Owner of a UPS store that I frequently visit then he is the Joke, how rude and disrespectful of him and his employee with the bandana on his head....I dealt with Angela and he aka Jim the owner kept talking over Angela. in the end I left with no help but understood what I need to get done and that was to write how HORRIBLE he is as an OWNER (so he says) and disrepectful he and the bandana on the head guy are...UPS, I have always held you with high respect ..but this AKA OWNER needs to go to a Manners Class... please do check the Video and see how this AKA Owner Jim is and set him straight!! Customers always are #1 - Owner Jim is rated way below the zero stars!! Worst Experience at a UPS STORE EVER!!!!

This one employee long hair skinny guy and dirty nails proceeds to open my box and the package inside it . To get the weight of the item inside without the package and box he said. Wth . It was not even My mail but I was mailing someones package to them, that came to my house. I had to let the person know that I didnt open their package, rather the guy at that store did. As I do not like to tamper with someone else’s mail. The guy was beyond nosy and proceeded to tell me he pushed his airpod into his ear so hard , that was bad. I just stared like..: Okay wth does that have to do with me. Very unprofessional staff at this location. We will he reporting this as He should Have not opened the package without the person who’s name it was mailed to did not give consent. I also did not give consent.

Louis took the time to call me back and listen to my concerns. He was able to advise me of my rights, explain the process of the law suit I was involved in, and recommend how to move forward. I think his personal attention to his future and current cases make him a great choice.

Mr. Rackley successfully persuaded an unscrupulous contractor, who did shoddy and incomplete work on a room addition, to void an existing contract and refund a portion of the monies already spent by us. He did this without having to go to trial by using the existing laws and court rulings of the state of Texas and applying them to the contractor. My wife and I are extremely pleased with him and all his employees at the law firm for their help and their compassion during this stressful period. I have and will continue to recommend him and sing his praises to everyone.

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 Helotes, Texas?

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.
