your issue and see if you feel comfortable with the lawyer or lawyers you’ll be working with. A good connection is crucial for success. Ask potential lawyers questions to determine your compatibility.
2. What does the lawyer charge per hour, and how do they handle fees? How big is the firm? Will other lawyers be working on your case? What does the firms staffing situation look like? Can other employees work on your file at a discounted rate, saving you money?
3. What are your expectations? Make sure you discuss your expectations with your attorney so you can avoid any miscommunication. Ask if they have time to take on your case immediately and if they have time to devote to it. How much communication are you expecting to receive from your lawyer? Is your case civil, where frequent contact is required? Do you prefer phone calls or emails? You and your lawyer should have a mutual understanding of what communication will look like throughout your case.
4. Ask questions. Lawyers understand making this choice is significant, financially and often emotionally. They should be willing to work with you to help meet your needs and determine what actions will lead to a positive outcome.
