  1. Tips to keep in mind before hiring a lawyer Do you need to hire a lawyer but don't know what to consider? Find in this article the answers to all your questions. What are the criteria we take into account when hiring a lawyer? Probably the most common answer is the budget; However, before hiring a lawyer or legal professional, it is convenient that we take into account different aspects: 1. Choose a specialized professional lawyer who offers you services that range from a food lawsuit to intellectual property procedures. If you are going to seek the legal review services of a lawyer, try to specialize in the area of the law specific to your case. Even when you go to a firm that offers a variety of specialties, make sure you are assigned an attorney with experience in the subject you require. 2. Choose a lawyer with a fixed office: Although it can be a criterion many times that does not indicate anything (since the fact that a lawyer has a good office does not guarantee the quality of services) when hiring a lawyer of which we do not references it is better to make sure that it has an address or a fixed headquarters where we can go in case of claim or having any inconvenience. 3. Clarify rates and means of payment from the beginning: Clarify before hiring a lawyer what their fees will be, either with a fixed price, with a commission percentage, or with an hourly price. Any type of additional expense or extra charges will have to be clarified and specified by the professional (for example, if the case requires hiring external professionals such as legal experts for legal document analysis, it must be clear from the beginning who will bear those expenses). 4.Be wary of advertisements that offer you a "free trial": Any legal process or trial carries costs, so don't be fooled and be wary when they offer you free services or strangely low market prices.

  2. 5. Remember that you are the one in charge: If you are not satisfied with the services or care received by your lawyer, you have the right to change both your signature and your professional (so read the contract for the provision of services carefully) before signing anything). 6. The lawyer must constantly inform you about his process: The legal professionals are under the obligation to inform you of the status of your case, in what phase of the process you are, and how you are managing your file. 7. Be wary of lawyers who guarantee 100% success: be wary of any lawyer who guarantees you a favorable judgment without knowing your case; if so, it is likely that he is either employing unethical methods to obtain a ruling in his favor or that he is simply a charlatan. 8. Sign a contract: A serious professional will proceed to sign a contract for the provision of services once you accept their representation; This contract must specify their fees, the services to which the professional undertakes, and in some cases the terms and periods of time. 9. Check the background: Before hiring a professional do a little research on your part (for example, how many cases have you won if you have experience handling cases like legal document analysis, your reputation, etc.) Source Url: https://sites.google.com/view/proteusdiscoverygroup/legal- services
