Hired Attorney 2024My name is Veselin and I have hired the Drennan Law firm to represent me in court regarding my traffic violations and I have received the best service possible and the best services by far I have ever received by a law firm! I was represented specifically by Mr. Adam Russo multiple times in court and the outcome of my case was exactly as planned by myself and my attorneys. They have done a spectacular job and I'm extremely satisfied by their services! I would never even think of appointing another law firm! They managed to drop and dismiss the charges I was facing and I still cannot believe that they succeeded in court and literally saved me of loosing my points! If you are ever in any legal troubles do not hesitate to hire the best Law firm and get the best possible representation! THANK YOU DRENNAN LAW FIRM, THANK YOU Mr. Adam Russo! You have done an amazing job and I will never forget what you have done for me!!! Best Regards, Veselin

Hired Attorney 2023I was dealing with another law firm to handle my traffic violation, when that firm started dissolving. Adam Russo with The Drennan Law Firm, took over my case quickly and efficiently! He handled my case, kept me informed of the status, and gave me the results I had hoped for. I HIGHLY recommend him and his professionalism!

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.
