Hired Attorney 2019-2023I recently had the opportunity to use the services of attorney Desmond Kolke. I was very pleased with his representation and the outcome of my case. 1. Desmond listened to my particular situation and understood the legal ramifications before he said he would represent me. He listened carefully to all I had to say. I felt heard and understood. He genuinely cared. 2. I appreciated him being upfront and fair regarding costs. 3. He did a lot of behind the scenes research and communication on my behalf. 4. During the proceedings he was calm, articulate, well versed and assertive when needed. Seeing him in action it was very evident he has years of experience and was very capable throughout the various aspects of my case. I would highly recommend him and if needed, I would most definitely retain him again, without hesitation.

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.
