Our attorneysDo this now, before anything else
Three situations where the first move matters more than everything after it.
You've been arrested
Say nothing about the case — not to police, not to a cellmate, not on a recorded jail phone. Ask for a lawyer out loud. Your first hearing is usually within 48 hours.
Criminal defenseYou've been injured
Don't give a recorded statement to the other driver's insurer. Early statements get used to shrink your claim, and you're often still finding out how hurt you are.
Personal injuryYou've been served
There's a short window to respond — often 20 days when you're served in Washington. Miss it and orders can be entered without you in the room.

Family lawWhat clients have written
She defended me and my rights aggressively while maintaining complete professional standing and respect with the Judge, Prosecutor and Police. As well her paralegal Tory is also very professional helpful and sympathetic.
Her calm, warm way of helping a very scared client made what I was going through tolerable. I always wanted to let her know how much I appreciate how well she handled my case and her thoughtfulness.
Nicole was there when I needed her the most. She was relatable and understood all the troubles I was facing. Best of all, she was able to come up with a solution for everything.
