Everyone has seen local and national attorneys advertise on television. In fact there are often 2- 3 different lawyers that advertise on the same show. How would you go about choosing which of these attorneys is right for your car accident case, your workers compensation case or your social security disability case. I'm sure I've left an area of the law out because just about every area gets covered. It's really very difficult to detemine in a thirty second commercial if the attorney is any good at all at accident injury law. Usually they shout to get your attention and tell you what? They use words like aggressive , experienced, lawyers you can trust. I love it when someone says let me be perfectly frank. That implies that most of the time they are not frank. And I put my hands on my wallet when someone says you can trust me. What you really need to know takes a little bit of time to find out. But its not that difficult, especially with web sites. You want to know : What settlements and verdicts have they obtained. How often have they handled a case similar to yours. Are they AV rated by Martindale Hubbel, a peer review rating system and the highest rating possible. What do former clients say about them. Are there testimonials on their web site. Are they able and willing to advance the costs of litigation. Will they be the attorney to handle your case or will you be pawned off on a junior associate. Do they provide educational materials on their web site. Do they have educational videos so you can get a sense whether they are a passionate advocate or a boring drone. SoI submit maybe that TV attorney is a good one , but a 30 second commercial won't give you much help. by Cincinnati personal injury car accident trial attorney Anthony Castelli.
