What Should I Look For in Choosing an Attorney?

This is your case, your only case. This is just one of many cases for your attorney. You need to choose an attorney who understands that this case is important to you and has the ability, experience and desire to fight for you.

The following is a list of questions you might ask before selecting an attorney or law firm to represent you.

  Does the attorney have experience in handling this type of case?
  Is the attorney knowledgeable about the type of injury or damage involved?
  Has the attorney tried any similar cases before a jury?
  How many jury trials has the attorney had?
  Is the case too large for this attorney or law firm to handle?
  Is the attorney a solo practitioner, or does he or she have a law firm with other partners and associate attorneys to help prepare the case?
  How long has the attorney or law firm been in business?
  What honors or recognition has the attorney or law firm received?
