-need-the-services-of-a-lawyer/ Taking The Hassle Out Of Hiring A Lawyer] Talk
to a lawyer
about their
history.
The fact
that
a lawyer is practicing is no indication that he or she is
successful
or skilled
.
You must learn
the record
of the lawyer
you
're looking at hiring
.
+
Before
you
agree
to
use
a lawyer
, make sure you ask for his or her
history.
Just because they can practice don't mean
that
they're
successful.
Be certain to know
the
lawyer's
record
, so
you
can feel better about his ability to work well
.
−
Know that anything discussed with a lawyer is confidential. To illustrate, if you share information about something related
to
your case, the attorney does not
have the right
to tell
your
competitors about it
.
+
You may want
to have
an attorney on retainer just to be on the safe side. You can now focus on finding
the right
lawyer you can definitely trust. Expert advice will be at
your
disposal with a lawyer to fall back on
.
−
Establish ahead of time when and where
you
will be able
to
have face-time with
your
attorney
.
Lots
of
attorneys work for clients without speaking to them for a while
.
Setting
a
schedule from the start
is
a good way to sidestep such issues
.
+
You should not choose the first affordable lawyer
you
find in the local yellow pages. It is critically important
to
check out
your
choices to make certain you are getting the best
.
Check that your lawyer has no past history
of
ethical violations
.
Pick
a
lawyer who
is
above reproach. Be very cautious
.
−
It is best to hire a real estate lawyer if you are dealing with issues related to a home you are selling or buying
.
This
will
make sure that your case will have
the
best chance to win
.
+
A specialist may cost more per hour, but it'll be less in the long run
.
In reality, a specialty attorney
will
spend less hours doing research on
the
case than a general lawyer, reducing their hourly fee
.
−
Make sure
your attorney
has won other cases similar
to
yours before
you
sign a contract
.
Just because they specialize in cases similar
to
yours doesn
'
t mean
they
'll win your case
.
When not available online
,
ask directly
.
+
Follow
your attorney
's advice, but do not forget that you hire him
to
work for
you.
Do not be scared
to
say something if you
'
re unhappy with things
they
say
.
While your lawyer is looking out for you
,
they have other cases too
.
−
Only
hire
a
lawyer you
can trust
.
Especially if the lawyer
you
are looking for is for your professional matters or business. Many of these lawyers ask for
a retainer
fee or
a blank check
; therefore, it is important to trust your attorney
.
You must be
able to
trust
them
with
your
wallet. Keep your guard up at all times
.
+
If you don't feel comfortable, do not
hire
that
lawyer
. Their fee's should not leave
you
feeling confused either
.
When
you
give them
a retainer
, don't just hand over
a blank check.
Figure out the fees upfront so that you're
able to
control what the costs are before losing control of
them
while
your
case is going on
.

talk
with a

Consider
a
lawyer referral service
.
This type of service can locate a lawyer for
you
. Quality varies from one to another. Some
are
selective and screen lawyers carefully. Others do not. Some will list lawyers that
are
favorable by the standards
of the
state bar if they maintain liability insurance
.
Look at their qualifications to pick the referral service that works best for you

When
You Need The Services Of A Lawyer
]
Good chemisry and communication with your attorney is critical to
a
great working relationship
.
If
you are
uncomfortable with your attorney at first, you
are
unlikely to ever have a good attorney/client relationship, regardless
of the
lawyer's credentials
.
Find a person whose personality is a good fit and trust your instincts
.
−
Talk to your lawyer about what
you
can do
to
help
and
keep
your
costs low
.
Maybe
there is
some paperwork you can attend to
.
If documents from the courthouse are required, ask if you can pick them up personally so the staff
of
the law office does not need to be paid for doing it
.
+
If
you
're going
to
speak to a lawyer
and
they tell you that they'll win
your
case no matter what, it's probably best to leave
.
A good lawyer should know that nothing is simple, and
there is
no guarantee of success
.
A guarantee
of
an outcome is a huge warning sign of a possibly incompetent or unethical lawyer
.
