The Law and You

When should I expect when I go see a lawyer?

  • When you first meet with a lawyer, you want to find out:
    • whether you have a case they can work with; and
    • if you and the lawyer will be comfortable working together.
  • If you decide to hire a lawyer, you will be contracting with the lawyer for legal services.
  • The lawyer will do your legal work for you and you will pay the lawyer for the work.
