Choose a lawyer who focuses on personal injury rather than general practice. Ask about their trial record and how often cases go to court.

Check State Bar standing and any discipline history. Meet or speak with the lawyer directly before signing anything.

Ask each lawyer to explain the percentage, when it is taken, and who pays case costs such as filing fees and records. Get these terms in writing before you sign. Confirm whether costs are deducted before or after the percentage is calculated.
