Verified ClientHired Law firm 2018-2019To those who never have needed an attorney, I say, "lucky you," and hope your good fortune follows you for the end of your days. If, however, you find, to your horror, that an aging parent has experienced exploitation, abuse or neglect, you will need an attorney - a good, knowledgeable, experienced, and dedicated one. I found that in Deborah Newman of Newman Law Firm. I needed an attorney who knew the intricacies of elder law and who had the willingness to act quickly and thoroughly on my mother's behalf. At every turn, Ms. Newman met the challenges we faced and took all necessary and appropriate measures to address them. I could not have found better representation. Newman Law firm handled my complicated situation expertly. I have every reason to believe that they can manage routine legal matters for elderly individuals and their families with ease. I needed help, advice and assurance through a difficult time. Deborah Newman delivered on every front. I am thankful and grateful every day, for her representation.

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.
