If you are looking for an attorney, you're going through some hardship in your life. Hiring the right attorney is not only the first, but the most important step in the process. Your attorney is someone who will represent you and your best interest in court. Your attorney is someone you need to trust 100%. You cannot have doubts before you hire your attorney, because the relationship between you and your attorney WILL NOT work.
Your attorney is someone who you will be in contact with for (possibly) a very long time. Someone who you will share personal and private information with. You want to make sure that you're choosing someone who doesn't just look good on the paper, but someone who you trust after having a conversation with them. Things will not always go the way you expect them to, but you need to make sure that the attorney you choose is one who will prepare you for any downfalls of your case, and prepare you for the aftermath. You need to ask all those questions during your initial consultation. You don't only want to know how your attorney will get you to the best case scenario, but how your attorney would approach the worst case scenario situation. Remember, if an attorney guarantees the win, or the best case scenario, he or she is lying to you. No attorney can guarantee an outcome of your case. What we can guarantee is that we will do everything in our power to get you to the most favorable result. Our job is to evaluate your case based on YOUR specific facts and provide you with a realistic and objective legal advice.
There is an ongoing misconception that attorneys are cold hearted and all they think of is the money. Yes, we need to get paid because this is our job, but the only way we can get paid and possibly get more business from your future referrals, is if we do a good job and you are happy with our services. Speaking from personal experience, I know that not only I, but many of my colleagues, care about each and every one of our clients. We invest countless hours and late nights into your cases to make sure you get the best possible representation. We stay on the phone with you when you are going through a hard time and we make sure to address all your concerns as needed. It is so important you do your homework and you do some research on who the attorney is, and what their work ethic is. You should have a good enough understanding of how the attorney is from your first consultation. Trust your gut instinct and TRUST YOUR LAWYER.
