Lawyers and law firms must comply with strict ethical standards. These standards extend to providing appropriate advice and legal representation for a reasonable fee. But a law firm's fiduciary duty to a client extends beyond fees, costs, and billing statements. Attorneys are also responsible for the timeliness and accuracy of advice they provide. This can include providing appropriate advice about potential tax consequences of your decisions, or the financial consequences of your actions. When an attorney is not sufficiently experienced or competent to provide advice in financial or other areas, he or she should inform you that you mush get the advice of another lawyer or law firm. When a lawyer's mistake causes damage beyond the loss of an underlying claim, the lawyer can be liable for damages if the lawyer had reason to believe that his mistake was likely to cause such damage. Breach of fiduciary duty claims take many forms and can occur from many aspects of the lawyer-client relationship.

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.
