Verified ClientHired Attorney 2018Mr. Anand is an amazing attorney. I have never met an attorney who takes so much time explaining the various complex issues involved with a client's matter. As a former prosecutor himself, he clearly understands what his client is facing and does not sugarcoat the seriousness of the matter, which I appreciated greatly. I was looking for an attorney who could tell me exactly what I am facing, and Mr. Anand did just that. His concern for his clients and absolute desire to make sure his client gets the best representation possible, is incredible. I cannot thank Mr. Anand enough for everything he has done.

Verified ClientHired Attorney 2018Attorney Harvinder Anand provided me a peace of mind. I was referred to him by another attorney. I was told that he had great experience dealing with federal cases.He was able to get my case dismissed. I had hired another attorney before finding Mr.Anand, but I wasn't happy with the results . Mr Anand was experienced, knowledgable, honest and responsive. He was able to handle things in court without me being there which was a relief. I would highly recommend Attorney Harvinder to anyone seeking legal representation. If any other situation arises, I would not hesitate to seek representation from Harvinder again.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
