Queenie B. says, " Charity has been working on my case since 2019. At that time, my wife and I were facing problems but Charity always understood the situation and never left my case. She was always patient with me and would always guide me on the things that needed to be done. She made the entire processing easier — I never thought that we’d make it this far on our processing, but she made it possible. Charity, I want to thank you for all the help and consultation all these years. And for always being professional and understanding about our situation. I appreciate you checking up once in a while. I highly suggest working with Charity. The entire process will be a breeze and she will walk you through everything." Read more

-Grateful C. says, ""My son was killed in a car accident when the car he was driving was struck by another car. We were referred to Andy’s office by a friend who used him on another matter. Andy and his office were extremely sensitive to my situation. The insurance at first stated that the other driver was not insured. Andy fought with them on this issue and finally convinced them that they insured that driver. The insurance company then sent over an offer for their limits. Andy explained to me what this mean and the implications of the offer and settlement. He did not push me to accept the offer but was very supportive of whatever decision I made." " Read more

Your attorney questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thervo.

Attorneys charge $100 to $300 per hour on average, depending on their experience and specialization. Attorneys in small towns or those still in training cost $100 to $200 per hour, while experienced lawyers in large cities charge $200 to $400 per hour.

These fees cover research, court filings, travel, documents, and advice. Some attorneys are willing to charge a flat-rate fee for simple projects, such as:

  • $700 for an uncontested divorce
  • $1,000 for writing a prenup
  • $300 for writing a simple will
  • $1,200 to write a will for a complex estate

An attorney is a legal representative who conducts business on your behalf and can represent you in court. There are multiple different kinds of attorneys with different specialties, including:

  • Personal injury
  • Real estate
  • Corporate
  • Civil rights
  • Divorce
  • Prosecutor
  • Tax law
  • Immigration
  • Family and estate, or probate and wills attorneys

Though the terms "lawyer" and "attorney" are often used interchangeably by the general public, the two are not the same. Both go to law school and can give legal advice, but lawyers cannot represent anyone in court because they haven't passed the bar exam.

Attorneys are responsible for guiding clients through stressful, difficult situations, such as:

  • A car accident, fall, or other accident that resulted in an injury
  • Being arrested or accused of a crime
  • Filing for bankruptcy
  • A family crisis such as divorce, adoption, death, or custody dispute

A retainer fee is what attorneys charge for essentially being on call. Attorneys either calculate retainer fees based on how many hours they expect to work within a month or the total time they plan to work on your case.

Many attorneys keep track of time spent on phone calls or emails and apply that time towards their fees. You'll have to pay more if your case takes up more time than the retainer fee covers.

Attorneys usually charge a fee for their time, whether they win the case or not. Some lawyers work on contingency, meaning they will take a percentage of awards if they win the case, but many do not. Make sure you are aware of an attorney's fee arrangement before continuing.

Power of attorney (POA) is a legally binding agreement allowing a person you designate to make choices about your finances, medical care, or property. This allows a trusted friend, spouse, or family member to act on your behalf when you can no longer make choices on your own.

Search our list of attorneys, then:

  • Get at least three free estimates from different firms to compare.
  • Read reviews on Thervo and Google.
  • Choose an attorney with a good reputation and experience with your case type.
  • Verify that they passed the bar and are qualified to represent you.
  • Get a written estimate or contract before any casework takes place.
  • Arrange a payment schedule instead of making a large payment up front.

After asking questions and verifying their credentials, hire the best attorney in your area.

When looking for an attorney near you, consider these questions:

  • What degrees and experience do you have as an attorney?
  • How long ago did you pass the bar?
  • Do you give free consultations?
  • Are you able to take on new clients at this time?
  • What are your fees?
  • How many cases like mine have you won?
  • Will you give me a contract in writing?

We hired Charity to work on our case. She was affordable for us and helped us when we needed. She made sure everything was done right. We talked to her on the phone and did emails. She always responded in a timely manner. Our case got approved from USCIS and NVC. Now we are waiting for the interview. Thanks Charity!

"I was stopped by security in a major department store for allegedly shoplifting. I told the store security I did not steal anything but they unlawfully held me and searched me in front of everyone. When they did not find anything, all they offered me was an apology. I was humiliated, embarrassed and just crying inside. I went to Andy’s office and spoke with him and his staff. They listened to me, explained the process they would take and assured me that they would get the department store to admit its mistake by more than just a verbal apology. Andy’s office filed a lawsuit for me. He prepared me and told me what to expect. Everything he stated was true. Through the help of Andy’s office, the department store more than issued an apology they paid me for everything they put me through." -

First and foremost if you are reading this you are already headed in the right direction I made the mistake of going cheap and you know what they say "go big or go home". So with that said Ms. Curran and her staff at Curran law firm are heavy hitters. Nobody wants to end up in a legal matter but if you do please trust me when I say you are in the best hands possible. I have nothing but respect for my attorney and her staff. Legal knowledge and strong communication were never an issue and everything was handled in a professional manner. No sugar coating -I truly felt like I had a team backing me in the courtroom, and I am not lying when I say Michaela is a straight shark in the courtroom. She gets her point across go with her no regrets. Thank you God bless you Curran Law Firm. THANK YOU!
