Find A Lawyer
Q.I'm not well versed in dealing with lawyers. How does one find a (good) malpractice lawyer? I'm in the Dallas, Texas area so I sure I'd have many to choose from but, I don't know where to start. Also, in dealing with a malpractice lawyer do you initially set up a meeting to see if the case even has merit?
A.People look to the Internet to find answers to questions about a wide variety of legal problems. So the next question people ask is, if they don't already know a good lawyer, and perhaps have never needed a lawyer before, how do they go about finding a good lawyer? This FAQ will talk about different ways to find an attorney, without getting bogged down in too much detail about specific types of cases. Whatever method you use, don't be reluctant to interview several lawyers until you find one you're comfortable with. If you're looking for a trial lawyer, ask for recommendations from friends and relatives who've recently served on juries. If you're looking for a real estate lawyer, call a title company and ask them who they use. For a domestic relations lawyer, ask the deputy court clerk in charge of domestic cases. Lawyers are the best source of information about other lawyers. Establish a relationship with a lawyer before some big emergency comes up and have him or her do some little things for you, like prepare a will, handle a speeding ticket or a residential real estate deal, review a contract, form a closely held corporation, etc. Is he or she responsive? Understanding? Prompt? Does he or she explain things clearly? Does he or she keep you informed without being asked? If the lawyer doesn't know the answer, does he or she admit it and then go find out for you? Then, when you have a big legal problem, you won't have to rush out and interview a bunch of strangers. You've already got somebody you can trust. If he or she can't handle the big matter, he or she can find you the right lawyer who can.
