Choose a lawyer who focuses on personal injury rather than one who handles it occasionally. Look for a real trial track record, since insurers weigh whether a firm will take a case to court. Ask whether the lawyer knows the local courts and insurers that handle Ross-area claims. Get the contingency terms in writing, including the percentage and who pays costs. Find out who personally handles your case day to day. Finally, check the attorney's standing with the State Bar. Use these questions as you compare the local attorneys in our directory.
