Questions You May Wonder?

When Should I See a Lawyer?

People often turn to lawyers as a last resort after the contract has been signed, a spouse has walked out, or a creditor is threatening. But just like regular medical checkups, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” when it comes to legal matters.

Good legal advice can not only save you money in the long run, but also save you from unpleasant difficulties later.

Situations in which you should consider consulting a lawyer include:

  • Before buying or selling real estate.
  • Before signing a contract with major financial provisions.
  • Before making a will or planning your estate.
  • Before organizing a business.
  • If you are arrested or charged with a crime.
  • When you are involved in an accident in which there is significant damage to persons or property.
  • When there are changes in your family status, such as marriage, adoption, or divorce.
  • When you have tax problems or questions.
  • When a lawsuit is brought against you, or you want to bring a lawsuit against someone.
Determination of Fees

Lawyers base their fees on different facts, including the difficulty of a particular legal task, the amount of time involved, the experience and skill of the lawyer in the particular area of law and the lawyer’s cost of doing business. The cost of doing business, referred to as overhead, usually includes rent, equipment, salaries and the cost of maintaining the lawyer’s level of professional skills and education. A lawyer’s overhead normally is 35 percent to 50 percent of the legal fees charged.

A lawyer’s services normally involve research, investigation and case preparation. Most of the work is done after the client leaves the lawyer’s office and can be very time-consuming. As a result, the client is often unaware of the amount of time a given legal matter will actually take.

A client should always discuss the prospective charges at the first meeting with the lawyer. At the initial meeting, the lawyer and the client should discuss the time anticipated to resolve the case, the difficulties likely to be encountered, and the complexity of the legal issues in the particular case. An early agreement concerning fees will prevent surprises and misunderstandings for both the client and the lawyer. You should be prepared to decide how much money you can afford to invest in the resolution of the problem. The lawyer/client relationship involves a mutual commitment. Both parties have a need from the outset to have a full and complete understanding of the commitment.
