Overview

What Makes Us Different: Experience + Local Knowledge
When resolving a client's legal issue, whether a straightforward business transaction or complex litigation, it's not enough simply to know the underlying law. An effective attorney must also understand the local landscape: courts, judges and other lawyers to be sure, but also the local business climate and the issues that matter to people in the community. Only armed with this knowledge can an attorney truly work in the best interests of his or her clients.
What sets our firm apart is our combination of extensive legal experience and a deep understanding of what matters to people and businesses in the Poconos. Our attorney, Joseph P. McDonald, has more than a quarter-century of transactional and litigation experience in Pennsylvania. Equally important, he has been a dedicated member of the civic and business communities, serving as legal counsel to three zoning boards of appeal, working with the Pocono Chamber of Commerce, and offering pro bono legal help throughout the community. We understand the needs of small businesses because we are a small business, and nothing gives our legal team greater satisfaction than helping other local businesses thrive in today's competitive economy.

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.
