Frequently Asked Questions
Q: I've got a few different legal things going on. Do I have to hire separate lawyers, or can one firm handle all of it?
A: In most cases one firm can handle it. Mizak & Pacetti is a full-service Parma law firm covering personal injury, criminal defense, DUI/OVI, divorce and custody, wills and trusts, probate, business law, and cybersecurity, so families and small businesses can keep everything under one roof. That means you are not re-explaining your situation to a new attorney every time something comes up. The best way to map out which matters we can help with is a quick consultation.
Q: When I call, am I actually going to talk to a lawyer, or get passed around to staff?
A: You work directly with the attorney handling your case, not an intake team or a rotating cast of paralegals. That direct access is the core of how this firm operates, and it is something large downtown Cleveland firms and high-volume advertising mills usually cannot offer. When you have a question, you reach the person who actually knows your file. Call (216) 398-9870 to speak with the firm.
Q: Do I really need a Parma lawyer, or should I just go with a big firm downtown?
A: For many South Suburbs residents, a local Parma firm is a genuine alternative to a downtown Cleveland practice. The attorneys at Mizak & Pacetti live in the community and regularly appear in Parma Municipal Court and the Cuyahoga County courts, so they know how local matters tend to move through the system. You get that local familiarity plus direct attorney access rather than being one file among thousands. A consultation is the easiest way to see if the firm is the right fit.
Q: How much does it cost to talk to a lawyer here? Is the first meeting free?
A: It depends on the type of case. Personal injury matters are typically handled on a contingency basis, which generally means no upfront cost and an initial consultation at no charge. Criminal defense, divorce, estate planning, and business matters are usually billed on a flat-fee or hourly basis depending on complexity. The clearest way to understand the cost for your specific situation is to schedule a consultation directly with the firm.
Q: Which courts do you actually handle cases in?
A: Mizak & Pacetti regularly handles matters in Parma Municipal Court, Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court, Cuyahoga County Domestic Relations Court, and Cuyahoga County Probate Court. Depending on the matter, working with an attorney already familiar with local court procedures can be a practical advantage. The firm serves clients across Parma and the surrounding South Suburbs. Reach out to discuss where your case would be heard.
Q: Who are the attorneys, and who would handle my type of case?
A: The firm is led by founding partner Jason B. Mizak, who focuses on estate planning, business law, probate, and civil litigation. Partner Vincent Pacetti, a former Cuyahoga County prosecutor, handles criminal defense, DUI/OVI, divorce, and personal injury. James Kashien handles criminal defense, bankruptcy, and consumer law, and Tony J. Miranda handles cybersecurity and data privacy. A consultation will match your matter to the right attorney.
Q: What areas do you cover? I'm not technically in Parma.
A: The firm serves clients throughout Parma and the surrounding South Suburbs, including Parma Heights, Brooklyn, Seven Hills, Strongsville, and Middleburg Heights, as well as greater Cuyahoga County. The attorneys live in this community and know the local courts and regional context that can affect a case. So you do not need to be inside Parma city limits to work with the firm. Call to confirm coverage for your area.
Q: What's actually different about this firm compared to the lawyers I see advertising everywhere?
A: The difference is that the attorneys here live in Parma and personally handle the cases they take on, rather than running clients through a high-volume pipeline. You deal directly with your attorney from start to finish, with no handoffs to staff partway through. The firm focuses on practical, straightforward guidance and realistic expectations instead of pressure or exaggerated promises. A consultation is the best way to see that approach firsthand.
