Hiring the Right Attorney

In order to find the right lawyer, a party should identify what their needs, and then try to find a lawyer who matches those needs. The right lawyer should be able to explain the system and the process in an easy-to-understand manner: he or she should not be intimidating or unresponsive.

Having Unrealistic Expectations

People often have unrealistic expectations about their case by comparing it to something they have seen on TV or to a friend’s experience. Every case is different and depends on its own particular circumstances.

Being Focused and Doing Your Homework

You could keep cost down by doing your homework. The attorney should provide a list of things that need to be prepared for the litigation process; if not inquire about what needs to be done.
