Here are some things to consider when deciding on a lawyer to represent you:
- How many cases have you been involved with over the past three years?
- What percentage of your practice of law is devoted to handling cases and injuries similar to mine?
- What were the results in terms of settlements or verdicts of the last 5 cases you handled that were similar to mine?
- What associations do you participate in that deal with injuries like mine?
- List three textbooks that you own and refer to when discussing injuries similar to mine?
- Show me a text you have read regarding my injury within the last 6 months.
- Name the seminars dealing with my injury you have attended in the last two years.
- How many articles have you written over the past three years that deal with any aspect of injury similar to mine?
- Would
your law firm be able and willing to spend in advance as much as
$50,000 in the investigation, preparation, and presentation of my case,
if necessary?
Hiring an
attorney with the best qualifications is your right. Exercise it wisely
because it may be one of the most important decisions you will ever
make.
