What is the role of an attorney in a Domestic Violence case in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

In Arizona, handling a domestic violence matter is often tricky and fraught with various different persons who have interest in the proceeding. A victim might want to be protected but also might want to get back together with a defendant. The defendant might be prevented by terms of their release conditions from even going back to the home where a married couple had been for many, many years. Therefore the role of a defense attorney is two-fold. Its one to handle the actual criminal matter but on the other hand it to act in some sense as a counselor navigating through a process that is unfamiliar. My name is Mike Baker of the Baker Law Firm. We serve individuals and families all over the state of Arizona in crinimal law matters such as drug possession, domestic violence and assault.

My name is Mike Baker of The Baker Law Firm. We serve individuals and families all over the state of Arizona in criminal law matters, such as drug possession, domestic violence, and assault.

How can an attorney help in my divorce in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

In Arizona, the importance of a divorce attorney is as follows: If both parties are able to agree as to their differences in the divorce, perhaps an attorney is not necessary. But if a party goes out and hires an attorney, my advice is that it is imperative that the other party hire an attorney so their rights are protected. Because if they do not hire an attorney, the things that the other attorney will do, in terms of how to settle the case, the actual knowledge that they have of the divorce statutes will inevitably have a negative effect on the other party. And therefore, the role of a divorce attorney is very important in protecting someone's rights, especially when the other party is represented by council. My name is Mike Baker, of the Baker law firm. We serve individuals and families all over Arizona in family law matters, including divorce, child custody, child support and parenting time matters.

What's most difficult about being a foreclosure attorney?

Carl E. Person

The difficult thing about my practice is that I represent people in distress, and distress is an economic situation. They have less money. They have less faith. They have...they're scared they are going to lose everything they have, and they come to me and they want me to help them. I can't help everyone that is in that dire circumstance. The best thing they can do is come to a lawyer--me or some other lawyer when they first have a foreclosure action against them. Then we can help them inexpensively and do a much better job than when they come belatedly. Or, they should get in there early and advise them to stop paying their mortgage so that they don't waste their money, and that they can precipitate a foreclosure and a modification more readily by doing it quickly, by stopping payment. That is what people need to know, and they don't know this. Instead, they talk with the bank, and the foreclosure is taking place. The foreclosure is going to happen. The faceless person at the bank does not call up the law firm and stop the foreclosure. They think it happens that way. I don't see it happening that way at all. So, the foreclosure is racing along, and then it's in default. And then they come to me saying that, "Oh my God, I'm gonna lose the property." What these people need to know in advance is that they don't have to lose a property that way, and it is not expensive to defend a foreclosure action if you do it timely.

What is an attorney's role in a real estate sale?

Wealth Strategies Counsel

If you're selling real property, you should have a lawyer advise you because the buyer is entitled to a complete disclosure from you, with respect to the property. And if you don't provide those proper disclosures, the buyer can come back and sue you for misrepresentation, fraud, and failure to disclose. You need a lawyer to properly word and structure the disclosures, so that you're completely protected. If possible, it's good to have an as-if clause added in the contract. I'm Jeff Matsen and I'm the founding and managing partner of Wealth Strategies Counsel. We help people preserve, protect, and transfer their legacy to the next generation, in the most cost saving and efficient manner possible.

Why do you advocate for children who've been injured?

Thomas M. Kiley and Associates, LLP

As an attorney and a child safety advocate, I believe it’s my role not only to provide compensation for an individual child, an individual family that’s suffered injury as the result of a defective toy or product, but also to send the message to the industry, that they can’t get away with it. If they put profits before safety, they’re going to be held accountable, and they’re going to have to change the way they do business so this doesn’t happen to the next child. I’m attorney Tom Kylee [SP]. I’ve been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Why do I need a lawyer for a car accident case?

Thomas M. Kiley and Associates, LLP

If you're injured in an automobile accident in Massachusetts and you have a minor injury, a sprained ankle, you may actually be better off handling the case by yourself. But if you have thousands of dollars in medical expenses, if you have injuries that have prevented you from carrying on your usual daily activities, going to work, going to church, playing golf, if it's interfered with your life, you're better off retaining an accident attorney because statistics show that with an experienced lawyer, you'll get more recovery than you ever will on your own negotiating with the insurance company. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

How will a lawyer handle my motorcycle accident case?

Thomas M. Kiley and Associates, LLP

Although people that are involved in minor automobile accidents can perhaps handle their claim on their own, if you are in a motorcycle accident it's recommended that you get an attorney. There's a built in bias against riders of motorcycles. Insurance companies take sometimes dim view of motorcycle operators, so it's more difficult to get an adequate a fair recovery for what has happened to you. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

How can a lawyer help me in a car accident case?

Kantrovitz & Associates, P.C.

I look at what I do as helping that particular client in a playing field that just isn't level. Insurance companies hire some of the most well paid attorneys. The insurance companies hire entire teams of attorneys to represent the best interest of the insurance company not the individual person that was injured in an accident or the individual person who was totally disabled as a result of nothing that they did on their own but somebody else's negligence. We level the playing field for a client. My name is Guy Montovano of Kantrovitz and Associates. We've been helping people in the great Boston area with automobile accident claims, workers compensation, social security/disability claims for the last twenty years.
