Trevor John Maveal

I spoke with Trevor early on in my case. I was actually searching for a different lawyer, but I am very happy that Trevor was referred to me. During the initial consult, he carefully went over my case details making notes of areas that could be areas of contention. After we were through, he detail...ed what I could expect with very realistic goals. Throughout the process, Trevor kept me informed and worked to make sure that I understood the progress and what my expectations should be. He aided in providing proactive steps throughout my case which saved time and effort. He was able to help with Zoom trial dates which was greatly appreciated. In the end, he was able to arrange a result that was agreeable to all involved. I know my process would have been much more difficult and may not have had as good of an outcome if I had not used Trevor. I would be happy to use him again if I was ever in need of his type of services.

Trevor not only went above and beyond during our initial meeting - making sure that I wasn’t rushed to disclose more then I felt comfortable with; but immediately started digging into the details of the case in front of him. From the jump Trevor laid out potential courses the case could take, and bro...ke things down in a digestible manner to someone unfamiliar with legal terminology. Throughout the entire process Trevor was knowledgeable and maintained great communication about next steps. As a working professional; my calendar is frequently full and Trevor was efficient with communication and respectful of my time - which is hugely appreciated. Trevor prepared me for the worse case scenario, however maintained a realistic composure about probable outcomes. Trevor was quickly responsive via text, and followed up directly if there was any clarity lacking in my knowledge of next steps. I’m exceptionally grateful for his hard work and dedication to my case - and cannot recommend him enough. Things seemingly turn out about 500% better than the realistic scenario I was prepared for - and for that I cannot thank Trevor enough.

Trevor took my case on relatively short notice and he was AMAZING. High, high quality. I hired him for a complex & incredibly high stress issue to do with having fled domestic violence from out of state while working to keep myself & my young children safe. I was facing a terrifying threat to my safe...ty and the details were extremely sensitive, private & vulnerable. Trevor was unfailingly calm, knowledgeable, respectful, and an invested listener. When I broke down & cried at times during our first meeting, he did not try to rush me or cut me off like others do & have when they're uncomfortable in the presence of emotion over extremely gnarly things. He took it all in patiently & was fully present. While he was clearly confident, I could tell he was intentional to not make promises or assurances he could not guarantee, but I also appreciated that he sought to comfort and encourage me as much as he could in professional and appropriate ways. I felt safe, heard, and invested in. He was always willing & able to give reassurances and unpack accessible explanations of things I was confused about. For awhile I had to pay two lawyers in two different states (one of them Trevor, the other in the state I left), and Trevor graciously made himself available to talk to my other lawyer so they could thoroughly coordinate and give me the best composite help they could for my situation. On the day of the hearing that I hired Trevor for, he made special efforts to prep & professionally comfort me for what I'd likely be experiencing in the courtroom. He really took it to heart that I have a history of trauma with the justice system and he was the absolute heartbeat of the first positive experience in a courtroom I've ever had in my life. He did an amazing job at unifying personal attentiveness with professional boundaries that helped me feel very safe even though I was still intensely nervous (which is an understatement). My abuser and his lawyer were on Zoom whereas Trevor and I happened to be in the courtroom, and Trevor was the kind of lawyer you see in movies & TV shows - in the best sense. He's the kind of lawyer you doubt exists in real life outside of fiction, but he's the real thing. He tastefully & subtly interacted with my abuser's lawyer on Zoom to unsettle him and cheer me up all at the same time. He prepared me for all possibilities in the courtroom, but the hearing was over quite quickly and we won! I have never had an experience like this in my life! It was a major healing landmark, and I cannot thank or recommend Trevor enough to anyone going through an unspeakably difficult & overwhelming time relating to areas of his expertise. He was an absolute lifesaver, personable & kind. He knew right when to use strong language about what I confided in him (to affirm what I'd gone through) and right when to weave in a gentle & personable sense of humor. I look forward to working with him again (which my situation will necessitate), and I want to give my highest recommendation to other potential clients who could benefit from his services - especially trauma survivors. Trevor is the attorney you want. I can't imagine how you could be disappointed. I've experienced so much corruption in the justice system, and Trevor was a formatively outstanding experience in my hope being restored for justice actually being possible.
