It’s very important that you are comfortable with your attorney. Your attorney should have knowledge and experience specific to your case. Don’t be afraid to ask them how many years they have been practicing, or what percentage of their practice is dedicated to your type of case. It is also very important to do your research and check their reviews. You can see some of my reviews on my Google Business Page, or on my Avvo profile HERE. Those are two great sites to research any attorney you are thinking about hiring. It’s important that you are comfortable with your lawyer. Not everyone is a great personality fit. If the attorney you’re talking to refuses to answer any questions or doesn’t answer them to your satisfaction, consider calling another attorney. I will always take your calls personally if you ask to speak with me, and I will take the time to answer your questions to the best of my ability. I am often accused of providing too much information to my clients! While I understand you don’t need to hear a "law school" detailed explanation of what’s going on in your case, I would rather you be over-informed than feel like you don’t know what is going on.
