Review Francis Younes

Help when needed most

Posted by

Frank was professional and understanding. He was able to get me a better result than I ever imagined. I would strongly recommend him to anyone seeking legal assistance.

I wouldn't look anywhere else

Posted by

When interviewing for my lawyer, I take a few things into consideration. How educated are they in my area of interest, am I truly getting their attention, listening to every detail, for a tailored game plan, and are they hungry to get the job done not only for my benefit...but to uphold their good name as well. I found that, and more, when working with Mr. Younes. From contract work to my criminal defense, he had the answer...and if he didn't...he made sure to find out. There are many discount lawyers out there, but remember you get what you pay for...and if you want a hungry, driven, up and comer with experience in settling million dollar cases...look no further. You've found the right guy. I've recently moved out of Nebraska but still find it worth my time to refer back to Mr. Younes when issues arise. I appreciate everything he's done for me and wish, and know, much success is in his future.

child support

Frank was a great help for the 10 minutes i was on the phone with him for free consultation. Saved me money instead of spending money for no good reason

Above and beyond

Posted by

We moved to Frank after our first lawyer wouldn't respond to our emails or phone calls. Frank did more in the first few days than our previous lawyer had done in five months. He was very responsive to our emails or phone calls. He took a case that was floundering and quickly took it a better direction than the previous lawyer had even suggested. With his direction and wisdom the outcome was far better than we had even imagined it might be. When there were problems with the other party Frank took care of the issue quickly and firmly to keep the process moving.

Personal injury

Posted by

I had a legal matter and someone referred me to Frank at High & Younes. From the first time I met Frank he has always went above and beyond to help me with everything. If I needed to speak to him and he wasn't available he would always return my phone call in a reasonable amount of time. Also, whenever I had a question Frank has always been kind and courteous to me and made sure all my questions were answered. I never felt just like a client to him. I felt that he treated me like how he would treated one of his family family members. Thanks Frank! I will definitely refer you to everyone I know.

Great and honest

Frank younes was an amazing lawyer for my wife and I. We had a some child support issues come out of the blue and Younes really helped us and answered all our questions as we proceeded further. During the initial consultation he really listened and gave honest advice as we went. He is easy to talk to and to understand. He gets the job done I highly recommend him especially if it's a family law case. he made a lot of good points in court and got the better deal out of what could have happened. With our case. Thank you frank.

Very helpful

Posted by

We could not retain Frank because it was outside of our jurisdiction, but I called to ask questions about a complicated custody case and he was very knowledgeable. He informed us that it was outside of his jurisdiction but took the time to have a lengthy phone discussion with me and gave me several options.

Trustworthy attorney that get's things done.

Posted by

From day 1 Frank was able to give me several different options and helped me to choose which course would be best for me in my family law case. Everything was done quickly and without problem. I walked away from court and what seemed like a never ending battle completely satisfied with the outcome. I would recommend Frank and his firm to anyone looking for an attorney who really knows their stuff and cares about their clients.

very professional

Posted by

The amount of time He took to understand my situation and have an extensive knowledge of his profession gave me assurance he could handle any difficult task and take care of his clients.
