Your Case is Our Priority

Whether you have a complex divorce case with custody, property, and support issues or a simple speeding ticket or felony charge, we care about each case as if they have dire implications in your life. We know you may be stressed and we know you may be anxious. We also know the court system inside and out.

Do I Need a Lawyer for my case?

We are advocates and not salesmen. We will not sell you a false bill of goods and will advise you if you do not need a lawyer for your case. We will also advise you of likely outcomes and what a likely result will be. Remember, the legal system is complex and the Court does not give flexibility to those who do not have a lawyer simply because they are representing themselves. In deciding ‘Do I need a Lawyer?', think about the old saying: “He who represents himself has a fool for a client.” – Abraham Lincoln.

What Can a Lawyer do for me?

We will ensure all possible legal issues are addressed because we know what they are. All documents (court pleadings) will be drafted articulately and filed on time. We will answer any questions you may have and will pursue a result that is consistent with your best interests. Whether you wish for a trial or settlement or plea bargain, we will be with you every step of the way. Remember, in a divorce case, your spouse probably has an attorney. Shouldn't you? If they don't have an attorney, what if you did? Finally, if you are charged with a crime or traffic infraction, the opposition is a police officer. What if you went up against a cop without a lawyer?

How much does a Lawyer cost?

Fees will depend on the type of case and its complexity. In divorces cases the retainer is hourly since it is really difficult to ascertain the time needed to successfully the resolve the case. In criminal and traffic cases the retainers are done on a flat-fee basis. In each practice area, your fee will be quoted during your free initial consultation. Remember, while lawyers can be expensive, not hiring a lawyer can be even more expensive.

How do I choose my Lawyer? I want the “Best.”

Communication is key here. Talk to different lawyers and choose the one you are the most comfortable with. It won't help you to find the most aggressive and rude lawyer for your case simply because you want an aggressive lawyer. There are many aggressive lawyers that are courteous and polite and will keep in touch with you about your case and have a good rapport with the court system and its employees. We are these lawyers. The court knows it can trust us to give it accurate information and our clients know they can trust us to keep them apprised of everything going on in their case and what the likely outcome of their case will be.

How does the Free Consultation Work?

In a family law case, you will receive a free initial 30-minute consultation. During this time, you will advise your lawyer of any pending court hearings, what relief you are seeking, and your expectations. We recommend that you write any questions you may have prior to your consultation so that it goes smoothly and that all your questions are answered. Please bring any paperwork you have to this meeting.

In a criminal or traffic case, you will receive a free consultation with no end-period. These consultations are typically shorter than family law matters and most are done by telephone per client request. If, however, they run longer than 30 minutes you will not be charged. Remember, bring any questions or documents you wish to discuss and we will be sure that you leave with a good idea of what to expect in your case.

DIVORCE

We know this is a stressful time in your life. We know that many simply cannot resolve their differences with their spouse. Let us help you resolve the legal issues and move on with your life.

MARITAL AGREEMENTS

You probably have property that is important to you. Whether you wish for a prenuptial agreement or post-marital agreement, we will help you dictate the terms to help protect your assets.

CHILD SUPPORT

Providing for your minor children is a parent’s most important objective. If you are the payer of the support or the payee we will ensure that you as a parent are protected while providing for your minor children.

SPOUSAL SUPPORT

Depending on your income you may either owe support or be entitled to receive support. Our experience will help ensure that you pay or receive a fitting amount.

VISITATION/CUSTODY

You may be entitled to full custody or, at a minimum, visitation with your children. We do not advise you leave this decision up to the court system because they are not looking for your best interests. However, we are.

CRIMINAL LAW

A conviction can lead to detrimental consequences depending on the crime. Because the cops are not looking to help your criminal case be sure to get help by someone that does want to help you avoid the consequences.

TRAFFIC LAW

We all drive. Coming into contact with the police is a normal byproduct of having to drive. Impacts on your driving record and your license can be avoided or lessened by a proactive approach.

DUI/DWI DEFENSE

While very common the law is strict due to increased political pressure. Jail time, license loss, fines, ignition interlock, and intrusive alcohol classes are at stake. There are many defenses to these charges and we can help you address it and move on with your life.

The truth about your case

We will not “sugar coat.” We will tell you exactly what you are facing and will give you the best and worst case scenarios. We are not here to scare you or to pull the wool over your eyes. We find many people calling us for a simple case where they have spoken to other lawyers and are now afraid. However, after speaking with those people and getting the facts, many times there is nothing to fear. We will tell you how things look and we will tell you the truth because we want happy clients. That’s you!
