Do I need an Attorney?

This is the first question you should ask yourself. In some cases, you can handle the problem without hiring an attorney. If the problem is small and can be handled without the advice of an attorney then you can usually find the right forms and resources to help you at the online. However, if the situation involves a major problem, like a lawsuit or charged with a crime, then you'll probably need to research finding an attorney.

What kind of Attorney do I need?

A lot of attorneys specialize in one area of the law. General practitioners, however, have a wide varying range of matters that they handle. If your legal matter involves a specialized area of law like family, bankruptcy, taxation or patent law then you need to contact a specialist. If you are dealing with a general matter then a general practice attorney should be able to help you. Make sure to ask your attorney whether he or she specializes in an area of law before you decide to hire them. You can always browse LawFirmDirectory.org to find an attorney that specializes in a certain area.

Your state’s bar association will also have a referral service that can put you in touch with an attorney. Word of mouth and the phone book are the standard ways of finding an attorney, but be sure you research thouroughly and ask for credentials and a client list.

How much do attorneys charge?

Attorney fees vary depending on what type of case you have and how much time an attorney will spend on your case. There are several different types of fee arrangements including hourly, flat fees and contingent fees. Hourly fees are calculated by multiplying the amount of hours an attorney works on your case by the attorney’s hourly rate. Contingent fees are fees that allow the attorney to receive an agreed upon percentage of any judgment amounts received by you. A fixed rate places a set price for the services an attorney will provide to you. Attorney fees are usually calculated without including court costs and filing fees that are usually paid up front by the client. Always ask potential attorneys to explain their fees and billing practices prior to engaging their services.

Can I fire my attorney?

You are the boss when it comes to your attorney. You can fire your attorney at anytime. If you are not satisfied with the work your attorney is doing for you, you are entitled to terminate his or her services. However, you must pay for services rendered up to the date of termination.

Finding an attorney can be a daunting task, so make sure you’re prepared before you start the process. Good Luck!
