    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.

    I worked with this team on a custody matter, and I’m truly grateful for their support throughout the entire process. From the beginning, they eased my concerns and made me feel confident about moving forward. They truly listened to what I had to say and kept everything open and honest with me, which made a stressful situation much easier to handle. Communication was excellent; they kept me informed, involved, and up to date every step of the way. Despite how busy they are, I always felt like my case truly mattered. I especially want to thank Hollie, Kevin, and Nancy for everything they have done and continue to do for me. Their dedication and care did not go unnoticed. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of a family law attorney.

    I had an excellent experience with The Collins Law Firm. I was facing a serious speeding charge in Virginia (108 in a 70), and as someone coming from New York, I was honestly very concerned about the outcome. Mr. Kevin Collins represented me extremely well. From the moment I met him, he was confident, prepared, and clearly knew how to handle my case. He fought for me in court and was able to get me an outcome with no jail time and no community service, which I’m truly grateful for. I also want to thank Kim in the office, who was very helpful throughout the entire process. She made sure I understood everything and kept things smooth on my end leading up to court. If you’re looking for someone who is professional, experienced, and truly knows how to represent their clients, I highly recommend The Collins Law Firm. They handled my situation with care and delivered real results.

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.
