Hired Attorney 2026

My attorney of record for court was supposed to be Richard Sprinkle, I received the bait and switch, and Zachary Smith was the attorney present at court. Zack is nice guy but was overmatched by the defense. I gave them 4 months of video evidence to show the judge the highlighted videos. The November videos weren't as clear with good sound with the neighbor working on his house and he had a fountain running in his pond affecting the sound quality. The latter videos were much better with the strong sound required. Richard said he has a background in video and sound and I told him to make sure and pick the right ones. Richard seemed to have dropped the ball with numerous communication failures with staff and Zach to prepare the correct videos with led to the judge's non-favorable decision. He was very good at taking the retainer but failed at all other aspects. I expected a victorious ruling, but the incompetence cost me. Now I'm at the mercy of the defendant and family who have threatened my life over their illegal trucking company. At 70 years old, one would think you could trust an attorney. Their final suggestion to me was to pack a gun for protection. That's not the sound advice from a competent attorney, nor what I wanted to hear. Baton Rouge does not have the best pool of attorneys; it's either ambulance chasers or guys like this that will leave you hanging. If you need an attorney, keep looking, these guys are not it.

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.
