What matters most when hiring an attorney?\u00a0 Many would say the most important thing is to hire an attorney who has a reputation for winning.\u00a0 This is an important factor to consider, I agree.\u00a0 And to some, this is all that matters.\u00a0 But what else matters?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Imagine how you would feel if this happened to you.\u00a0 You are charged with a criminal offense.\u00a0 But you\u2019ve hired a lawyer and hope he will protect you, guide you through the process.\u00a0 You arrive to court on time, but your attorney barely talks to you.\u00a0 The courtroom can be a scary place, especially if it is your first time.\u00a0 But your lawyer shows more interest in talking to his lawyer friends about flying a private jet around the country and he even complains about some of the clients he has.\u00a0 He talked a great game until he received his retainer.\u00a0 After that, he never seemed to have time to return your calls.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Some lawyers sit around with other attorneys in courtrooms and openly exchange stories about some of their clients while waiting for their case to be called.\u00a0 It\u2019s a practice that is disrespectful and unprofessional. \u00a0I imagine everyone that happens to be within earshot may feel the same.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A courtroom is a place where one\u2019s fate is decided; maybe not today, but at some point. For attorneys to sit around and chit-chat with other attorneys in a disrespectful manner, or to ignore the one person whose rights they are there to defend, is belittling and insulting to clients.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
