Some things to consider...
Will my lawyer be aggressive? The justice system is not for the faint of heart, and retaining assured and confident representation is key to getting your voice heard.
Is the attorney I choose knowledgeable about my case? In many instances, attorneys hand their cases off, leaving the finer details to be sorted out by paralegals and interns. Make sure that your lawyer is reviewing your case regularly, so they know all the facts.
How much experience does my legal counsel have, and will he put it to work for me? Too many lawyers advertise their services in legal areas they have very little experience in—and thus don’t know all the avenues leading to justice. The right connection in the courtroom can go a long way. Make sure your attorney’s been there long enough to make the connections you need.
