What Makes a Good Lawyer?
A good lawyer takes the time to fully understand your legal situation and goals. Then takes the time to actually explain what’s at stake – both the upsides and the downsides. Then takes the time to talk about options.
A good lawyer tailors a legal strategy to accomplish your goals without wasting money or time.
A good lawyer gives you an opinion – after all that’s what you came for. I’ll tell it to you straight up – the strengths and weaknesses of your case, an idea of the cost of hiring an attorney, and how long it could all take. I’ll also tell you if I learn something new that changes my opinions.
A good lawyer has a casual office atmosphere, a friendly staff, excellent coffee, and often a good lawyer’s dog.
