Kevin and Kim were very helpful throughout the entire process and helped to ensure I was treated fairly in my case. Kevin was professional and answered all of our questions in a timely manner and Kim helped us to put together a great gameplan to achieve the desired outcome for our case.

Choosing the right lawyer can feel like navigating a maze blindfolded. It's a tough decision, and there's always that fear of whether it'll be worth it in the end. But let me tell you, finding Hollie at the Collins Law Firm was like stumbling upon a beacon of hope in the darkness of our legal struggles. When we were knee-deep in an endless custody battle, feeling like we were stuck in a never-ending nightmare, we made the bold move to switch attorneys and bring Hollie on board. Looking back, I wish we had made that decision sooner because working with her has been nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we spoke on the phone, we felt a sense of relief wash over us. Hollie's expertise in family law is unparalleled. She didn't just know the ins and outs of the legal system; she practically wrote the book on it. But what truly set her apart was her genuine care and understanding. Communication? Hollie was always just a phone call or email away, ready to ease our worries and answer our endless stream of questions. And believe me, we had a lot of questions. Her professionalism was second to none. Even in the heat of our most contentious battles, Hollie remained calm, composed, and unwaveringly professional. It was like having a steady hand guiding us through the storm. But perhaps most importantly, Hollie delivered results. Not just any results - results that exceeded our wildest expectations. Thanks to her tireless efforts and unwavering dedication, we emerged from our custody battle victorious, with our family's future secure. I can't stress enough how grateful we are to have found Hollie and the Collins Law Firm. If you're facing a legal battle, especially in family law, do yourself a favor and go straight to Hollie. She's not just an attorney; she's a lifeline in times of uncertainty. Thank you, Hollie, for everything. You truly are a legal powerhouse and a guardian angel rolled into one. Special thanks to Kevin for your support throughout this journey. Shout out to Kim, their legal assistant who did a phenomenal job processing and keeping up with all the complexities of our case. I also wanted to point out that they handle a wide range of legal matters, including Personal Injury, DUI, Driving on a Suspended License, Criminal, Divorce, and Child Support/Custody. So whatever your legal needs may be, you can trust them to provide exceptional representation and support.

Kevin and Kim were super helpful throughout the entire process as well as had great communication the entire time. Kevin was very professional and got my case dismissed completely! An amazing outcome, I would highly recommend!

Over 30 years of legal experience and know-how clearly paid dividends on my traffic case appeal, and knock my case down from a class 1 misdemeanor guilty verdict on a reckless driving charge, down to just a violation with just a small fine. Highly recommended.

Mr Collins took a very upsetting situation for me and was able to resolve it. He listened to what happened and came up with the best way to present to the prosecutor. Ticket ended up being dismissed. A major headache out of my life. Thanks again.

I had Mrs. Collins represent me in a custody matter and she not only was extremely helpful during the process but got me the outcome that I was hoping for. I cannot thank her enough!!

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.
