Making the Call

After you have a short list and searched websites for lawyers, ask a few questions to help determine their credibility and start the process:

• How many years of experience does the lawyer have?
• How often does the lawyer participate in the particular kind of cases that you have?
• Who does the lawyer represent in most cases?
• Is it the plaintiff or defendant?

After this process, you should have a good idea in mind of the right candidate to correspond with your situation. From here, you should set up an appointment and see how you connect with the attorney. Personality is vital to the relationship, and you want someone who will go to bat for you and also keep you updated on the progress.

It’s also a good move to check the reputation of the attorney and see how they deal with issues such as yours. They should have the know-how to negotiate and reach a fair settlement. Many cases settle before trial, so this step is a pivotal one.

In the same regard, make sure your lawyer is unbiased and truly cares about your case. You want an attorney who will devote proper time to your situation.
