Ms. Jamie Rollins has been a part of my life for over a year, the most humiliating and humble year…read moreof my life. Since day one, she guided me through a legal process that I never imagined going through and had no knowledge of the process or outcome. We communicated weekly and I knew she was making every effort in areas even beyond the norm. Once presented to the judge, she did not miss a point and displayed genuine support and care of my case. Her message and delivery was received to end the worst year of my life and to take next steps to move forward She continues to be available if I need her. I will forever be grateful.

So upon getting arrested and searching for a lawyer, I did not see a ton of useful, objective…read morereviews so I would like to leave one so when somebody like me starts searching for an attorney, this will be useful... I've worked with Evan Bruno before. He did me good. No complaints. This time, I was pretty sure I was cooked. To the point I had even broke the news to my family that I would probably have to go away for a while. I don't wanna make this about me not going to jail bc everything is relative...you know what you did or didn't do... That being said, this is about his conduct in total: professional and super informative. Upon first meeting and hearing how much he was going to charge, I may have threw up in my mouth a little but like they say; you get what you pay for. After doing more research and a consultation, I paid. He told me I was in good hands but I was still super apprehensive. He did not lie. From the little things like a day or two before every court date, getting an email letting me know where to be/what time/what was going to happen, to being presented all options, and being given his professional opinion...and personal if I'd ask. Showed up on time and ready to each and every court date. The one time he had to sub, he informed me prior. There were no surprises. I'm EXTREMELY satisfied with the outcome of my case and his conduct. I hope I never need this man again I promise but if ever you find yourself in a situation and need a lawyer you can count on, he did not disappoint...pay the man!

TLDR: Condescending man, couldn't be bothered with my inquiry. Just trying to get a consult fee…read morefrom me and wasn't interested in my needs. Especially if you're a woman, stay far away from this guy. I was referred to Meyer Capel law firm, and more specifically to Sam Limentato, from another lawyer. I wanted a post-nuptial agreement drawn up. I was informed via email that there is a $175 consultation fee. Totally fine, however, I had a few clarifying questions about if the fee is applied to the work and also the overall cost of drawing up a post-nup. I was then told by Sam that he could take a phone call (for free) to discuss. Great! However, then while on the phone, it was clear that he was unhappy and uncomfortable with taking the call. While on the call he appeared frustrated and annoyed with my questions, acted as if I had done something wrong for asking questions, and there was even a condescending and demeaning tone for most of the discussion. When I asked how much experience he has with drawing up pre/post-nups I was told with an air of superiority, "Let me put it this way. I was the presiding judge over all family law for several years." I'm not sure why he felt the need to then repeat this information at another point in the conversation, likely his own arrogance. Turns out he has only done about a dozen pre/post-nups, which he admitted on the call. He also felt the need to tell me twice that he did not need me as a client and he couldn't care either way if I moved forward with his services. Great way to draw in new business. He then chided me for asking clarifying questions about costs--questions anyone would have. The whole thing left me wondering why he offered me a phone call in the first place if he was so unwilling to participate. I didn't ask for a call, I asked a few clarifying questions and then he offered the call but then treated a potential client with disgust and derision. Needless to say, I did not move forward with his services. I would strongly encourage anyone to avoid this lawyer, especially if you're a woman.

I phoned them two weeks before my court date and set up an appointment for a consultation with Lauren McQueen, who claimed to be competent in the necessary legal specialty. Her secretary assured me that she was available to represent me on the Court date.

Happily, Meyer Capel did finally refund their charge nine days later. I am changing my rating accordingly.

I presented a comprehensive binder filled with evidence demonstrating that my children were being alienated from me by the other parent, yet she dismissed every single page. Upon our first meeting, she didn't even have the professionalism to introduce herself. It felt as though she had already taken a side simply because I am the father. Additionally, she advised against confiscating my children's cell phone--which I own and pay for--despite its irresponsible use. Well done, Martinkus, well done. Guess what? My case was ruled in my favor with the other parent alienating my children from me with no help from Martinky. Your firm gets no stars.. just globs if it were even possible. I give you 5 globs.

They were also a safe team to work with as someone from the LGBT+ community. They were very clear with me about the realities of my situation and made me feel empowered to make very difficult decisions without making me feel overly pressured. When I had to appear in court to finally settle the divorce, emotionally and physically I could barely function that day. Ruth made the whole experience as quick and easy as possible and arranged things so I barely had to be in the same room as my ex. I can't thank them enough for helping me through such a deeply painful time. If you need a lawyer who is very competent and kind, I highly recommend Ruth Wyman.

Because of my exposure, I was looking for a really fair minded, professional, organized law firm that could take me from earliest negotiations right on through to final sale! And this is what Maatuka Al-Heeti Emkes and her amazing staff did for me! After coming out of a 30-year marriage and subsequent divorce, they made me feel certain, assured -- they made me feel empowered! Gave me the drive to finish something I'd never done alone and wasn't sure I could do! They helped me make a start on a brand new life and with that, they helped me build a home. =) And I will tell you this much, as the newly single, scared and unsure, price was absolutely a factor (anyone who tells you any different is a Rockerfeller of the atypical kind ;D). But MAE Law Firm (as they often call it) was absolutely spot on as far as that score! They were so fairly priced, and for all of my worries, they made me feel like very special client, even though they'd never be able to pick me out of a crowd! Even though I'd never spent a moment in their offices! It looks like there has been some kerfuffle here - that I absolutely cannot speak to! -- but I just wanted to say that from my experience and in everything that happened for me, my experience was very dissimilar to those in the negative. And price-wise, $500 was my entire bill for the time and attention Ms. Emkes gave to my project. In comparison to her competitors, it was well below any other quote I'd received.
