Hired Law firm 2023-2026After the sudden passing of my husband, who was a U.S. citizen and had part of his assets held at an American bank, I, as a German citizen, was faced with a complicated probate process in the United States. While searching online for assistance from a competent law firm in the U.S. and Germany, I unfortunately discovered that although there are many firms that claim to provide help in such cases, they were ultimately either unable or unwilling to provide me with competent support in handling the matter. However, after further searching, I finally found a firm: Urban, Thier & Federer. When I contacted the German office via email with my problem, Mr. Thier called me immediately from New York and assured me that he would resolve my matter to my satisfaction through his office in Florida. Of course, it took some time, as the matter had to go through a U.S. probate court. I am happy today that, with the tremendous help of Urban, Thier & Federer, the complicated inheritance matter was resolved with a positive outcome for me. I would like to extend my special thanks to Mr. Thier, Baylor Johnson, and Heidi Hansen. They all represented my interests successfully and with the utmost professionalism, and I am pleased to be able to recommend this firm without reservation.

Hired Law firm 2022A top notch law firm, attorneys and support staff. After a car accident with my family in the car, I was not clear of my rights or where to turn. The other driver’s insurance company pushed me to settle for a small payout that was not even enough to pay for my totaled car. After speaking with the head of litigation, John Urban, his team got me a great result. I highly recommend.

Hired Law firm 2021-2022International Estate Matter - Urban & Thier P.A. helped my family w/ an inheritance in Germany. He was very professional and as efficient as one can expect when dealing w/ various European institutions. This all took place during the Covid lockdown era. Their office was able to deal w/ all aspects of the inheritance from the courts, taxes, real estate and banking. They tried to answer all our concerns and kept my family updated of the process and what we needed to do. If you have a foreign inheritance I would highly recommend Urban & Thier P.A.

Hired Law firm 2022I have not had many dealings with attorneys in my life, but life got me in a dire situation, when I not only needed an attorney, but a special attorney. During our vacation in USA, my wife abducted our children and decided to stay in US, right before kicking me out to the streets and serving me with divorce papers. I needed a very specialized help and right away. I was blessed enough to, through referral, get to Mrs. Patricia M. Lee, Esq from Urban Thier & Federer, PA from Orlando, FL. Immediately I knew I had the very best attorney I can wish for on my side. Not only Mrs. Lee specializes in Hague convention cases for more than 30 years, but her approach was also unexpected, to say the least. I could immediately tell this is not just her job, but `her true passion – helping those in need. I was in a hopeless situation, and she fought for me like a bulldog for months all the way to the trial and beyond. I guess that would be expected from an experienced attorney. What I did not expect was this personal, HUMAN approach. Not only that I felt at times she took the incredible injustice, lies and deception of the other side personally, but so many times, when I felt like I couldn’t do it anymore, she lifted me up. She talked to me when I needed it the most and always encouraged me. Through this entire very difficult process I felt like I have a friend on my side, friend, who will do anything to help me get my children back home. And she did. The entire office staff is not only extremely competent, but very friendly and always understanding and helpful. I was so happy to get to know Julie, Nico and of course Nadine. I can honestly say that this firm’s values are helping people and I cannot recommend them enough.

Some lawyers publish comparative information regarding the services that they provide which may be subject to specific comparative communications restrictions.
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.
