Verified ClientHired Attorney 2021I am so grateful for the compassion, energy and expert legal skill I experienced working with Jill Oleisky. I hired her to represent my daughter in a misdemeanor case. Even though the charge was brought in a distant Minnesota county, Jill immediately connected with that county attorney and sorted out all the details. She reached a successful agreement and kept the charge off my daughter’s record. Jill contacted us regarding each step of the process and stood by us throughout the experience. We were never left wondering what was happening. She explained every legal issue thoroughly and treated us with the utmost respect. My daughter, who was quite anxious about the misdemeanor incident, felt Jill was extremely kind, discreet, and emotionally supportive of her. Jill’s calm, non-judgmental counsel meant the world to me and my daughter. I can’t thank her enough for her help!

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.
