Verified ClientHired Attorney 2018I highly recommend James Hoover of Hoover Krepelka, LLP. He is an excellent Family Law attorney who is an utmost professional in his field. In a very trying time of life when I desperately need guidance and expertise he provided that to a tee. I felt very secure and cared for under his representation and I knew he had my best interest as well as the very best interest of my children in mind in all of our decisions which was invaluable. He is the best by far and I am so thankful for his representation and the professionalism of his law firm. It made a a very difficult process bearable and gave me a peace to know we were in such solid and capable hands.

Hired Attorney 2009-2024I have been blessed to work with Jim over many years and have found him to be abundantly compassionate, understanding but always practical. He will invest his time to outline the legal position but then add a good dose of real-world wisdom to what is for most folk a difficult period. I can wholeheartedly, without reservation recommend Jim to help you in every situation.

Hired Attorney 2023Jim was excellent during our initial consultation. He listened to my needs and asked probing questions. He was able to find details in my case that I was not aware of…these details enabled me to settle out of court with my ex husband, with he agreeing to provide the financial support that Jim and I were seeking for my children. I was impressed with Jim’s detailed work, constant communication and ability to complete the case in a specified amount of time.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
