Consulted Attorney 2025It took this firm an entire month to inform me they could not take my case — without a single phone call or any attempt to schedule an in-person consultation. I even had to follow up myself just to confirm they had received my information. Knowing I have a strict legal deadline to file my complaint with the courts, they dragged their feet and failed to communicate in a timely manner. Their delay has jeopardized my ability to protect my legal rights and forced me to scramble at the last minute to secure new counsel. This level of disregard for a potential client’s time-sensitive matter is unacceptable.

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.
