    Curtis is very thorough and competent in what he does. He took the time necessary to explain everything to me in a way that I could understand. And answered all of my questions. Would definitely recommend him.

    The death of my father was the most stressful experience of my life. As named executor and daughter; sorting out the surrounding emotional chaos was bad enough without dealing with the convoluted documents and administration of an estate with sizable real estate holdings. I needed a “Super Lawyer “ who is the best at probate administration, wills and trusts. Who could fight off multiple attorneys representing alleged beneficiaries legal challenges. Curtis is knowledgeable and a beacon of hope to my family. I am eternally grateful for his service and I would highly recommend him.

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.
