Negotiation Style
Lawyers are human, just like you, which means they all possess their own personality traits. A blunt, aggressive lawyer may be ideal for a felony case in criminal court, but you may want a compassionate, likeable lawyer to handle your custody case. You also need an attorney who meshes well with your personality, as you will be spending a significant amount of time preparing your case together.
An initial consultation with a number of lawyers is a smart idea. You can interview each one and then make a decision based on who you think might represent you the best. It is also a great way to get an idea of which law offices and attorneys you are most comfortable working with.
