  1. Nicole Desharnais - 5 Questions You Should Ask Your Lawyer

  2. How Long Have You Been Practicing? Experience is one of the most important factors to consider when selecting a lawyer. The last thing you want is an amateur handling your case. With this in mind, understanding how long a lawyer has been practicing is very important. Ideally, you should go for a legal professional that has been practicing for at least five years.

  3. Have You Ever Represented A Case Similar To Mine? It is also essential to know that the lawyer you have chosen has enough competence to fulfill the demands of your case. Although sometimes it may be a little difficult to find a lawyer who has handled your type of case before, it is always a big advantage if you can.

  4. How Long Do You Think This Case Will Take? Legal battles in any situation can be costly, and you don't really want to be involved in a protracted case for years. A good lawyer should be able to provide a rough estimate of how much time will be needed to complete the case. This will help you plan accordingly.

  5. What Are Your Fees? Different lawyers charge different fees depending on their expertise, the experience they have, and the complexity of the case at hand. However, don't be too concerned about the legal fees. The priority should be to first of all get quality legal representation and worry about the cost later. If you can land a great lawyer at a relatively smaller fee, then you should definitely go for it.

  6. What Is Your Win Ratio? A proven track record in dealing with cases is a necessary requirement for any lawyer. A lot of people will feel safer working with an attorney who has contested and won a fair share of cases in their career. In light of this, before hiring an attorney, make sure you know how many cases in total they have represented and what percentage of that number were won or lost.
