This is the most important decision you will make in your case. You will need to determine the level of experience that the attorney has in handling cases of the type you wish to pursue. You will need to find out if the attorney is board certified in civil trial law, a distinction held by a very small minority of very highly qualified attorneys. You will need to find out whether the attorney would be dealing with you directly and/or what level of access you will have to the attorney. You should also choose an attorney in the location where you choose to pursue the claim due to his or her knowledge and experience with the local attorneys, judges and locals rules of court. You should ask your attorney for information as to the qualifications, experience, when they last tried a case, the results obtained on behalf of that client, if available and legally permissible for the attorney to disclose the information as well as simple word of mouth in the community as to the attorney’s reputation.
