Verified ClientHired Law firm 2020-2021Roz truly made me feel as though she cares about me and my children. She answered my (too many) calls my (too many) emails promptly and without ever making me feel like she was agitated or annoyed, because she understands me as a mother.She fought hard and prepared good arguments that were in my children’s best interest, and was honest with me when she felt I was being unreasonable. I consider myself so lucky to have found an attorney that fights with my children in mind. I would recommend her to anybody and everyone seeking an attorney that really cares.

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.
