Here is a list of questions that you may want answered when you meet with your attorney. This is not an exhaustive list, and others pertinent to your situation may become apparent when you meet with your attorney. If you understand the answers to these questions when you leave your attorney's office, you are well on the way to being a well-informed client:

About your legal options

  • How does the law affect my situation?  
  • What choices do I have?

About your case

  • How long will my case take?
  • What will you do next? When will I hear from you next?
  • What should I do next? Is there anything I should not do?
  • Are my expectations realistic?

About fees

  • What is your hourly rate? How much will your services cost?
  • Will I have to pay for anything else?
  • What could change how much your services will cost?
  • How much is your retainer? (the amount to pay before a lawyer starts work on a case)
  • Can I pay with a credit card? on a monthly basis?
  • Is there anything I can do to keep costs down?

About your lawyer's office practices

  • How will you keep in touch with me?
  • Can someone else in your office give me information about my case?
