Treat You with Respect
Injury law can be uncertain and stressful. But this is not an excuse to be treated poorly. You should expect the utmost respect and consideration from your lawyer.
Client Testimonials
It would help if you were sure that you are hiring the right personal injury lawyer with hundreds of dollars at stake. Listening to or reading clients’ testimonials will give you insights into this. Your lawyer should provide a list of past clients. You can call them to learn more about the lawyer’s quality of services.
