Customer Reviews for Nicaud & Sunseri Law Firm, LLC
-
Hired Law firm 2021Going through a very NASTY divorce, Michelle Sunseri and her staff were amazing. Highly recommended!

Consulted Law firm 2011-2019Integrity. Intelligence. Emotional Maturity. Understanding. Compassion. The work ethic to accomplish that which is right and true for her clients. Michelle Demarest-Sunseri is one of the most honorable people I know, and I have known her family on an intimate basis as a pastor and counselor for years. Her marriage to Doug Sunseri is literally a match made in heaven, and the two of them make an insightful and formidable team. I had the opportunity to call upon Doug and Michelle for assistance in a complex case involving a foreign national, a violent accidental death, disputes over inheritance, immigration issues and the near-criminal harassment of family members -- all swirling around a 26-year-old immigrant woman with a one-year-old child. Doug and Michelle sorted through complex issues, advised me in terms of how to effectively encourage and support the young woman involved, worked with tremendous efficiency to minimize costs, and successfully steered the young widow and me through a tumultuous time all the way to the acquisition of her citizenship and the settlement of her husband's estate. Beyond this case, I have turned to Michelle and Doug both for questions related to my counseling practice and pastoral involvement in the lives of hurting people. They have been there for me in every circumstance. Hiring an effective attorney, I believe, is a lot more than buying into someone who knows the law and can intimidate the opposition. While those are important, I also look for emotional intelligence, the maturity to recognize challenges and see the benefits and pitfalls of potential solutions, a heart-felt commitment to both justice and truth, and the grace to understand both human strengths and weaknesses. These are great people. They are also gifted attorneys with a passion and compassion for the rights and lives of their clients.

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.
