Do You Have the Right Attorney? 8 Questions to Ask Before Hiring a Lawyer You usually don’t want to hire a personal injury lawyer because it usually means you’ve found yourself in a difficult situation. Here are some important questions you need to ask in order to find the best attorney to help with your case. “Who specifically will be handling my case?” Some lawyers who advertise on TV aren’t the lawyers who will be working on your case and may instead pass your case to another firm in a different state. Insist on speaking to the lawyer who will be handling your case. “Does this lawyer only handle personal injury cases?” No lawyer can be a legal jack-of-all-trades. Look for an attorney who only handles personal injury cases, because that means they have more experience with personal injury cases and are most likely good enough to sustain their practice on those cases alone. “How much experience does this lawyer have?” You can determine experience with the following questions: • How long has the lawyer been practicing injury law? • What type of training has the lawyer received? • Do they have courtroom experience? • Have they ever tried cases? Have they ever mediated or arbitrated cases? “What is this lawyer’s reputation?” You can get a sense of an attorney’s reputation through client reviews as well as ratings by independent, third-party organizations like Super Lawyers (superlawyers.com) and Avvo (avvo.com). “What kind of support staff will be assisting with my case?” Great lawyers don’t get great results all by themselves. They need a competent team in place. Check if the firm is properly staffed and if the staff has experience handling injury claims. “Does this lawyer have the financial resources to prosecute my case?” If a lawyer does not have adequate financial resources to pay court costs, expert fees, deposition expenses, etc., your case may not get all the attention it needs. “What’s the average time it takes to settle my kind of case?” You typically shouldn’t have to wait more than 45–60 days after your medical care is completed to know whether or not a settlement is likely, or whether going to court is a necessary next step. “Has this lawyer handled other cases like mine in the past?” An experienced personal injury lawyer will have worked with many cases identical or similar to yours and will be more likely to achieve a positive outcome.
