Hired Attorney Dennis Null Jr

Denny represented me on a federal case. He was astoundingly good. I would recommend him over anyone in the Western Ky area. His cost was well worth all the time he put forth into my case. He’s a straightforward guy. His character has never been short of being a trustworthy representation on my behalf. This is the man you want fighting for you.

Hired Attorney Emil Samson

Attorney Emil Samsn was very attentive to my situation. He took care of the matter in a timely fashion at one fourth of the fee quoted by another attorney. I would recommend him to anyone needing an attorney.

Hired Law Firm

I worked primarily with Richard d. Null, as he was my actual defense attorney, however, I also spoke on a few occasions with a Senior partner, Dennis Null, as well as the support staff on a few occasions. Everyone, from the start of my case to the end, were very knowledgable, professional and courteous. When I was unable to speak with my attorney directly, my husband spoke with them on numerous occasions on my behalf and he was treated with professionalism and respect as well.

Hired Attorney Richard Null

I was looking at some very serious charges in a state I did not even live in. I did not know anyone there but found Richard's name by chance & I was VERY pleased with his defense lawyer abilities. He was able to negotiate an outcome I would not have believed had I not been there to see. The amount of money he charged was VERY reasonable, especially considering the severity of my charges. From beginning to end, I was consistently impressed with his professionalism and abilities.

Hired Attorney James Dillard Paitsel

Jim has helped me as I am going through a divorce. I know that he is trying to get the best and fair settlement for me. He is very good about working with my hours as it is hard for me to leave my place of employment.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
