The task of choosing the right auto accident attorney in Summit County or anywhere else can be an intimidating prospect. The task is even more difficult if you have never sought legal representation before.
Finding an Attorney
The first step is to speak to friends and family to see if they have ever needed a personal injury lawyer or have recommendations for a law firm.
If you don’t find someone by word of mouth recommendation, check online. You’ll find a great deal of information on an attorney’s website and you can learn even more from online reviews.
Once you have a shortlist of potential candidates, it’s time for due diligence.
This is an important decision and the more you learn, the better choice you can make. Check with the State Bar Association to make sure they are in good standing. Schedule consultations with multiple attorneys so you can compare your options.
What to Discuss during a Consultation
A consultation is a chance to get to know an attorney.
Do they explain matters to you in a way that is understandable to you?
Are you comfortable talking about what can be very personal matters?
Do they seem interested in representing you?
There are many things to consider when choosing an auto accident attorney.
