Initially, I chose Loren to handle my estate planning based strictly on her location. She appeared…read moreon a list of lawyers available through my workplace as a benefit and since I didn't know anyone on the list, I just chose the closest lawyer and had no expectations. What a pleasant surprise to discover that she was not only the most convenient but the best imaginable choice. I am very unfamiliar with legal and business matters and ordinarily would find the process daunting but Loren was so patient, affable and clear (without being condescending) that what could have been frustrating and traumatic was straightforward and simple. Although Loren was being paid by a third-party company, she was generous with her time and thoughtful with her recommendations. For example, while I came to her for a will, after carefully reviewing my situation, she recommended a trust, a far more appropriate option. Looking over her work and correspondence, a discerning family member who does have expertise in business and legal matters said, "Whoever referred this lawyer did you a favor. She is GOOD." He was RIGHT.

I reached out to Fields and Dennis to get information on Special Needs Planning/ documents and…read morelearn how they work. Aside from office staff being incredibly rude it seems Sheryl handles many areas of law and is not necessarily a "Special Needs" planner/ lawyer as she listed on the website and in her video. She seems nice enough in her video but when the office is so rude to potential clients that is a red flag. Its not 100% clear but it appears this is primarily a litigation firm that does estate planning on the side and then maybe?? has some interest in Special Needs? You can tell this from the fact they have an "intake" person - Kelly - who is quite condescending. Firms that take on cases have "intake" staff. This is not what one expects from an estate planning lawyer/office let alone one that claims to focus on Special Needs. This is particularly egregious as too many law firms and planners claim to handle Special Needs planning when really they just see as a slight variation on regular trusts - which is what causes issues for families down the road. They don't have the depth of knowledge or vested interest that TRUE Special Needs planners and lawyers have. Can only hope that eventually these type of law firms will catch on that having staff condescend to and treat potential clients rudely is not a winning formula.

Vicki Shemin and Jonathan Fields represented me for a simple divorce. It was a short-term marriage…read morewith no children. No discovery was done and we only appeared in Court twice, once for a motion hearing and again to present a full settlement agreement. The emergency motion was filed by my ex-husband and only necessary due to Attorney Shemim's advice for me to change the locks to our former marital home. This was an action I wouldn't have taken otherwise, ultimately escalated the amount of animosity in the case and the judge disapprovingly viewed as a form of self-help. Somehow this all amounted to attorney's fees exceeding $82,000, the last $19,000 or so I am being repeatedly hounded for while several requests to discuss my billing continue to be ignored. Their paralegal has an hourly rate comparable to what many firms charge for a mid-level associate, and over billed for simple administrative tasks (i.e. two hours to divide the numbers on my biweekly paycheck in half). This was not a high-net worth case, there were no unusual or extraordinary issues to be dealt with, and the total amount billed for a matter that was resolved in less than a year actually exceeded the amount I received as a settlement. I would have ended up in a better position financially if I didn't have counsel at all. I ended up negotiating the final terms of the settlement directly with my ex anyway. Perhaps this firm is great for those who are extremely wealthy where the total amount of legal fees is of no concern, but for anyone like myself, making a living as an RN, expect to pay top-notch prices while consistently being treated as a low-priority client. There are certainly better options out there.

To compound matters, we used a law service that covered the attorney fees and there were some differences on what was covered and what wasn't. I don't feel like I was overcharged but make sure the costs are clearly known before you agree to his services.
