I can't go into too many details, but if someone is giving you the short end of the stick, Jim Lay…read moreand Angela Dougherty will take that stick over to whoever is doing you wrong and.... you get the idea. I stopped telling (and listening to) lawyer jokes after meeting these good people. They truly are the champions of "the little man" and not in that cheesy "Saiontz and Kirk" kind of way.

RUN, RUN, RUN!!! If you are looking for an attorney to support and defend you, look for someone…read moreelse! I felt like he was working for my ex-husband. I had to plead my case before going to court and while in court, he was not attentive, he would ask me if I had questions during the trial, and when I came up with the questions myself; he never asked them. HIGHLY DISAPPOINTING!

If you want a detail oriented lawyer I would go elsewhere. He represented me in my divorce…read more During the case I had to prove he agreed to complete aspects of the case when he tried to charge for them as additional to our flat rate agreement. His poor organizational timeline caused unnecessary delays and on multiple occasions he got details of my case wrong and documents had to be redrafted; at least twice confusing my wife's and my information. This was most notable when he thought (well into the case and with a signed property agreement in hand, mind you) that I was paying her in the settlement rather than the reality that I was receiving funds from her. In the end the case went as expected and other than a few weeks worth of unnecessary delays I was not harmed. When looking for a lawyer though, is this really the standard you want to use?

Attorney Brendan Klaproth ...As good as it gets! Amazing Attorney…read more Courageous. Credible. Competitive. Conqueror. Compassionate. 1. He took my case after other attorney's told me they wouldn't know how to get it done. 2. He was always straight with me and other attorneys gave him great references. 3. 1st he thinks. He strategizes. He fights. He wins!!! He won my case! 4. He has positive energy and a sense of command that put me at ease. *5. My favorite - He listened, heard/felt my pain, advised me, kept me informed, and reminded me that trusting was okay; there are some people who'd keep my best interests at heart. Fact: No amount of money can erase pain; but, the walk through your tough days can be eased when you have the right support in your corner. I am grateful Attorney Brendan Klaproth handled my case. My lawyer is The Best. When you need a lawyer, call Klaproth Law PLLC, Washington DC

No one likes to be sued...but it happens and if it does you should probably use my lawyer. Sergey…read morehandles everything legal for my company. He's helped us transition from a sole proprietorship to an LLC, made sure our contracts and employee manuals cover our asses and has provided numerous consultations to help us think of the legal implications of certain decisions BEFORE doing something that could have had unexpected consequences. We primarily work with Sergey but have recommended both he and his business partner Brennan to numerous clients and the feedback has always been positive. We would not use anyone else. From contracts, to employment and immigration issues this is a firm I would highly recommend if you ever find yourself in the need of a good...no great lawyer.

I…read moresought his services and expertise because I read reviews that he takes great care to lead you through the process, answering all of your questions, and that it would be him that would be dealing with me and my concerns and stresses. I can attest that the reviews are true. Robert is amazing and I always felt I was in good hands because he is an expert with Ch. 13 BKs. I always felt he was being honest with me and sincere. Because he is so knowledgeable about the law, he advised me when was the best time to file, in MY best interest. That's what a good counselor does; looks out for your best interest, and ensures you have the facts you need so you can make an informed decision. I will always be grateful to The Law Office of Robert S. Brandt.

Without going into details in 2017, He helped negotiate a child support order for me and my will. Recently, 2019 he represented me in fighting to avoid my support order from being modified. If you want an attorney who you can have full confidence in then Bill is your man. He is responsive, prepared and looks into all the details. During trial he is so on top of things that I was trying not to clap for him. I haven't had to hire a family court attorney before Bill but I have heard horror stories so I feel very lucky that I had Attorney Bill Lyden representing me.
