Choose a lawyer who focuses on personal injury rather than one who handles it occasionally. Ask about a real trial track record, since insurers treat that seriously. Look for someone who knows the local courts and the insurers you may face. Get the contingency terms in writing, including the percentage and who pays costs. Ask who personally handles your case day to day. Finally, check the lawyer's standing with the State Bar. Use these questions as you compare the local attorneys listed in our directory, and pick the one who answers them clearly.
