Hired Attorney 2015Lois R. Finkelstein has multiple misconducts during her representation as an attorney for me. She breached her duties to advise client honestly and to keep client’s information confidential. She allowed opposing counsel to come in to her office to select and to take away any of my privileged or confidential documents without my prior knowledge and approval, in order to make the case more complicated. I ask her multiple times in the email and through multiple conversations to give me an estimate on how much the cost could be to settle the case. But she failed to give me an answer. These caused me to pay unnecessary costs to settle the case and resulted in the worst possible outcome. She charged unreasonable, unnecessary, and duplicated fees. She billed me thousands of dollars for work out of nowhere in order to extinguish my remaining trust balance shortly before settlement. She charged me three times to review the same case including the initial review and two court appearing's. She is a cheating attorney to avoid.

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.
