Recommends this Attorney

Suddenly finding myself in need of legal assistance I contacted Attorney Marle's office. This was the best choice I have made in a long time. He was quick to respond, knowledgeable, caring and professional. He handled my case perfectly in spite of the blindsides we experienced. Even when I found myself hospitalized (not Covid), he called me to reassure me and tell me all I had to do was concentrate on getting well. Always calm and prepared, Mr. Marle controlled each and every situation. I highly recommend him should you ever find yourself in need of legal help.

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.
