• Finding An Attorney
• Almost everyone will need the services of
  an attorney at some time in their lives. It may
  be anything as easy as signing financial papers
  to finalize on a house purchase or drafting a
  simple will, or it could be something more severe
  like accident liability or criminal defense. It
  is critical to have knowledgeable and qualified
  counsel in any circumstance. The issue is that
  most of us don't need an attorney very
  frequently, don't know one, or don't know where
  to go for one who is suitable for you. The more
  you know and the more prepared you are for most
  things in life, the better. It's no different
  when it comes to choosing an attorney. Let's
  begin from the beginning and work our way through
  the steps.It may seem obvious, but the first step
  should be to determine whether or not you need
  the services of an attorney. There are instances
  when not having one or delaying calling one may
  exacerbate the situation. Don't be fooled by
  advertisements that promise you can make your own
  will, manage your own divorce, or form your own
  Limited Liability Company (LLC). It may be
  feasible with some of the packages available, but
  you will not get crucial legal advice to warn you
  of any legal weaknesses, how to ensure your
  rights are protected, or if the papers will hold
  up in court if challenged.Do you want to learn

• The ancient adage "A person who acts as his
  own attorney has a fool for a client" has some
  truth.After you've decided why you need an
  attorney, you'll need to figure out what kind of
  attorney you'll need. Some lawyers are "general
  practitioners," while others are experts in a
  certain field of law. If you're going through a
  divorce or a personal injury lawsuit, it's a good
  idea to choose an attorney that specializes in
  those types of cases.It will require some effort
  on your side to choose the appropriate counsel.
  You may always start by looking through the
  Yellow Pages or online directories, but the most
  efficient method is to ask friends or experts in
  your neighborhood for recommendations. You may
  also contact a legal reference service or check
  with your state bar for a list of lawyers in your
  region. You must do duediligence regardless of
  what you do or how you begin your search. The
  more you know, the more pleasant your search
  results will be.After you've narrowed down your
  list of prospective lawyers, the following step
  is to contact them. Many lawyers do not charge
  for a "initial consultation," which may be done
  over the phone or by arranging a meeting.
  However, before arranging a meeting like this,
  make sure you know whether there will be a
  charge. Keep in mind that you are the customer
  who is paying for their services when you choose
  an attorney. Don't be afraid to ask questions.
  It's always better to be a wise shopper.Do you

• Be prepared and clear about your
  expectations throughout your search and
  consulting sessions. If you have any papers
  related to the issue you'll be addressing, have
  them on hand in case they're required for
  reference or verification. It's also a good
  moment to bring up the topic of attorney's fees.
  Fees may vary depending on the situation. Here
  are a few examplesHourly A lot of lawyers
  charge on an hourly basis. This varies greatly
  based on the attorney's expertise and the size of
  the legal business.A flat fee may be levied in
  certain circumstances. A simple divorce,
  bankruptcy, or basic will, for example, may be
  handled for a fixed price plus any extra expenses
  such as mileage or court fees.Retainer An
  attorney may request a lump sum payment up front
  to serve as a holding account for future payments
  as the case proceeds. In other cases, such as for
  a company, an attorney may be hired on a retainer
  basis for a set price.The attorney gets paid on a
  contingency basis, which means that the fee is
  based on a percentage of the verdict. This is
  most prevalent in situations involving personal
  harm and responsibility. Once the court has
  issued the verdict, the fee is paid. There is no
  charge if the decision is not in your favor.Do
