Hired Attorney 2018-2021Karlina helped me with a protracted and messy child custody case. I changed lawyers to her, and am so very happy I did. She undid the damage my first lawyer did on not being strategic, and helped deliver the best results for my children. She is honest and frank, never lead me on, is very familiar with many individuals at court and how to strategically operate within less than ideal scenarios, to ensure a positive outcome (which is not always guaranteed - she never gave me false hope). She was pleasant to work with, always available, would listen to my concerns and then offer options - either on the spot, or after some consideration would get back to me with her experienced opinion on the best approach. For context, my ex was extremely manipulative, devious, a narcissist, connected, and was represented be a seasoned lawyer. But despite the odds, Karlina came through for my daughters and I, after three years of struggle. I am deeply appreciative of all Karlina has done!

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.
