I came to Schmillen Law Firm looking for legal advice and a lawyer to help me get through a very complicated situation. I had never been in the position I found myself in, and it was very scary. When I met with Jim Schmillen for a consultation, he truly listened to what I was looking for in a lawyer. He didn’t tell me what I wanted to hear on that first visit. But, he told me what I NEEDED to hear from a professional and legal perspective. He was very honest and upfront in his assessment and opinion of my situation. I felt I was getting a very clear vision of what direction he would go in if I hired him to represent me. He exceeded my expectations in every aspect of our legal journey together. He was confident, experienced, assertive, smart, and accessible. He has an amazing team and they work so fluidly together. I always felt like I was their priority client and they made sure I was informed of every decision that was made. He is dependable, trustworthy, hardworking, and loyal to his clients. Schmillen Law Firm is definitely a solid choice when it comes to legal counsel in Arizona. You will not be disappointed in the experience you have with them.

“During a very unpredictable and challenging time in my life, Jim provided outstanding dedication, legal knowledge and expertise when taking on my case. He calmed my fears and took the stress of my legal situation off my shoulders. His understanding of what I was up against was extremely comforting. I greatly appreciate Jim and his paralegal Rachel. Their hard work, integrity and willingness to go the extra mile truly paid off for me. I would not hesitate to recommend Jim to anyone looking for an amazing family law attorney. “ - Karla

Pat Gitre is the quintessential genius in the legal field. She is the epitome of a guardian angel and the attorney for any integrous human pursuing justice. Ms. Gitre embodies the fundamental qualities to fight and care for others’ human rights. Gitre’s legal brilliance is unparalleled, with a distinctive drive to circumspectly achieve the principal outcome. Her unremitting passion in the diligent pursuit of truth displays a level of tenacity and grit directly aligning to presenting an infallible case for her clients. I, a naïve novice to the unethical underworld of one’s capacity to make false assertions, engage personal political agendas, and crave unwarranted greed, ensued a necessitated need for Pat Gitre’s aptitude. Immediately upon the first conversation with Gitre, an inner certainty was established to aid my desire for sureness and ultimately substantiated such thorough investigating with my case. She worked with me personally, communicated with me directly, and cared about me genuinely. Ms. Gitre sought critical particulars and unapologetically asked direct questions to gain an all-encompassing depiction of what transpired with the false accusers. I instantaneously consumed a knowing that God placed her in my life, at this exact moment, to traverse my case proving my innocence. Justice consummated by Gitre’s relentless, unwavering, and uncompromising exertion for truth and rightness. She vigorously and victoriously achieved favor of the Court to grant a motion to Remand a Grand Jury indictment. Ms. Gitre’s persistence for aptness in a fair and unprejudiced representation fueled the drive to attack an area of legal proceedings that most rarely venture, much less conquer. She continued assertiveness to influence the dismissal of all deceptive charges brought against me, further corroborating that Pat Gitre was indeed my miracle vessel from The Lord. Pat Gitre’s keen awareness of societal behaviors, her ability to examine the most obscure details, along her presence of mind to professionally piece together an otherwise unidentifiable puzzle has earned her the rightful highest praise. She is direct yet compassionate in her steadfast approach with the highest level of integrity and professionalism. I solemnly advocate the recommendation of Pat Gitre and urge any human, necessitating such paramount justice, to retain the services of Pat Gitre, by far the most promising experienced attorney.

Patricia is very professional and straight to the point. She was very helpful and thorough in my case. She explained everything to me in detail. Thanks to her my charges were dropped from several possible felonies of transportation and sales of cannabis to a misdemeanor for possession of cannabis. I don't intend to get in trouble again out in AZ, but she would be the first person I call!

Pat successfully prosecuted all claims for us, and successfully defended all claims made against us. The opponents simply could not keep up with Pat's legal prowess. Pat is very thorough, and very smart. She can see way down the road, and much further than the opponent. She is truly a tremendous attorney. I recommend Pat without reservation. Mark

She was true to her word. If we presented a questions, she promptly answered her phone or text. Always keeping us informed on where we stood and what the next steps would be. Marci stood by our son, showing she truly cared for his well-being. Our son was looking at jail time, Marci not only helped prevent that but also gave us peace of mind during the process.

I was presented with a dubious invoice for attorney's fees (not Danielle's, obviously) and not knowing what was 'reasonable' in the State of AZ (I live out of State, but needed to file in AZ) Danielle evaluated my fees thoroughly, provided feedback, and in record time. She also helped me summate key points for discussion, and paved a road to future next steps. Not to mention, her overall approach was one of 'How can I help you' over 'How much money will I make.' She is head and shoulders above all others I've recently spoken to in her field, with a critical set of ethics you'd want in an attorney (or any business partner). And she really knows probate process inside and out. I can't recommend her enough. Plain and simple: Hire her.

My wife and I found ourselves in a complicated legal situation with limited funds and we lucky enough to be referred to Danielle. From our fist interaction with Danielle, we knew we were with the right attorney for us, and we were thrilled to get someone with her experience and divers skill set, for roughly half of what we were expecting to pay. While our legal matters have yet to be concluded, she has been consistently ahead of the other attorneys involved in the case, and has quickly earned our confidence. We appreciate very much her taking a budget conscious approach to our lawsuit and billing far less than she could have. It sounds corny, but we think she really cares. We could not recommend her more and I can't imaging any time in the future when she will not be my first call for any legal work.

He was extremely professional and very communicative regarding my case. 10/10 I would recommend Brian to anybody fighting a DUI case!

Fabian represents himself to be a very confident Personal Injury attorney. That couldn't be further from the truth in my case. The only positive thing I can say about Fabian is that he at least understands state statue. His communication skills with me were very subpar. Fabian would affirm certain duties or tasks would be done by a specific deadline, but fail to meet them. Sometimes even weeks would go by where I would call his office or work cell with ZERO answers. I wouldn't even hear from him. He would affirm some of his employees contacted me about pertinent information regarding my case when in fact they did not. He over promised and under delivered on many occasion. I cannot in good conscience recommend this attorney based on my experience. Fabian "specializes" in other practices as well, but do your home work and interview many lawyers before coming to a decision. Take my short coming as a warning!

If you're looking for the best business and contracts law firm in AZ, look no further! Fabian was literally a god send. I met with several lawyers before meeting Fabian. Once I met with Fabian, I knew hands down his law firm was the team I needed in my corner. Fabian and his associates are extremely thorough and immediately start strategizing once they learn about your case. It's the first time I ever faced a lawsuit (and hopefully the last) and it can honestly be intimating at times. However, they were great at explaining and guiding me through every step of the process. I learned so much from these guys and they quickly got my case settled before the discovery stage. They handed my case the way I hoped it'd be handled. I've seen several other post about money well spent and that's exactly how I feel as well. I will literally be recommending all my friends and family to Zazueta Law if they are ever in need. I've actually already referred one friend. After meeting with Fabian, they have decided to retain his services as well. Thank you Fabian and team for all that you did, not just for me, but for my family as well!

We had a case where we had sold our house and thought we had moved on to our new residence without a hitch, when four months later, we received a letter from the buyer's attorney demanding money for repairs for items that they accused us of hiding from them in the disclosure document. Ryan was recommended by a mutual friend, and he turned out to be an excellent choice as our legal representative. At the first meeting, he was very easy to communicate with, as he listened very intently to glean all the details and documentation that we had concerning the case. He quickly came to the conclusion that our opponents had no grounds to make such financial demands and proceeded to elaborate on his strategy to defend us. I liked his plan and I liked his style. Within a just a few days, Ryan had come to an agreement with the opposing party, which resulted in them dropping the case. Furthermore, Ryan also showed a great amount of integrity, in that he informed us that he was giving back a certain amount of money to us, because he did not require as much as we had initially given him to proceed with the case. Ryan Sandstrom is definitely a "5 star" attorney in my book!

I never thought I would be a person who would have to hire an attorney to help resolve a simple water flood I had in my home, but the insurance left me no choice. Hiring Ryan Sandstrom was the best decision I have ever made when it came to protecting my rights and my personal assets. Ryan was always available and very understanding of my feelings and listened well to all my frustrations. With that being said, Ryan was very good at finding the facts surrounding our claim and never let emotions drive his demands and decisions while dealing with my insurance company. Every e-mail and phone call was promptly returned and was done so with compassion and understanding. This was not an easy process for me or my family. We had been fighting with our insurance company for months, moving from our in-laws to a hotel and then ultimately ending up in a rental. It was not until we hired Ryan that things started to move quickly and immediately. I would recommend Ryan to anyone who is having a difficult time getting answers or responses from their insurance company. It is only because of the expertise, professionalism and determination of Ryan that our claim got resolved and paid. We can not thank Ryan enough for his time and dedication and ensuring we were made whole for the damages that occurred in our home. My wife, 5 kids and myself are going to be able to move back into our home this weekend thanks again to Ryan. If you are ever questioning whether or not to hire an attorney, I am sorry for what you might be going through but know you do not have to do it on your own. Ryan will be your voice, your advocate and will get you what you are owed. Please do not hesitate to protect you or your family by hiring Ryan, you will NOT regret it. Thank you Ryan from the bottom or our hearts, we were blessed beyond measure to have you on our side.

We hired Ryan for a case where we were being sued. Understandably, this was very unsettling and Ryan took the time to explain everything about the case, our options and possible outcomes. Any time we had questions, he was very approachable and quickly responded to us with answers. He spent time collaborating with us making sure everything was covered and did an excellent job of pleading our case to the judge. I was extremely impressed with how he represented us and thankfully, the case was ultimately thrown out. While it is our hope that we do not need his services again, I would highly recommend Ryan to anyone facing a similar situation.

I have been working with Morgan quite a bit over the past year with my business and he has been fantastic. One thing that really distinguishes him from other lawyers that I've dealt with is not only his professionalism and expertise, but his personable manner in which he conducts business with you. He has been great working WITH me and what I needed both from my perspective as well as his perspective and we worked together to put something together that was exactly what I was looking for and needed. Even more importantly, Morgan is fair when it comes to what he actually needs to do for you versus what you don't actually need him for. He isn't just out to bill you for as many hours as he can or add on as many services as he can. He actually will ensure that he treats you fairly for what you actually need. I have come back to Morgan time and time again and for things that were outside of his area of expertise he has some great referrals to be able to connect you with. I have referred him personally to friends who have needed similar help and would gladly continue to send people his way. I know I will have more work to do with Morgan and I look forward to the continued professional service and excellent work that he has performed and I highly recommend him to others looking for a fantastic lawyer to work with!

My wife and I were referred to Mark by a realtor and originally consulted with him on several occasions over the past several years concerning our rental property. We were considering letting the property go into foreclosure for a number of personal reasons. He gave us clear options for us to make an informed decision on how to proceed. We decided to stop payment on the house and let it go into foreclosure. During this process, we consulted with him again to get some clarity on issues we had with the process and he answered all questions and explained in terms that we understood how to continue. The process has taken over 2 years total, and at the beginning of this year (2017), we were served with papers from the bank that a dispute over the description of the property was in question. At this point, we hired Mark to assist with the legal aspect of the banks filing. In what seemed like a complicated issue, Mark was able to settle the issue with the bank and get us out from under the legal aspect of the case. I found Mark to be very knowledgeable and extremely helpful in our consultations and easy to work with. He exceeded all of our expectations in the final out come of our situation. Thank you Mark for all your assistance in what was a very stressful time.

I came to Bob's firm with a unique and difficult probate case that I was hoping wouldn't have to go to arbitration. I was drawn to his firm because of a positive experience in my family, but I was still nervous about who I would choose to represent me. I had a very delicate situation and knew I needed a specific kind of attorney to take on this case with me. I met with Bob for an initial consult, and I immediately knew I wanted to hire him. Bob went above and beyond in my case and made sure that he would get things to end in my favor. I appreciated his honesty and straight forwardness from start to finish; I had expected to have to interpret the real truth in what was being said to me, but Bob always told it like it was - even when I wasn't always thrilled with what he was telling me. His work ethic is admirable and the persistence he showed in my case blew my expectations out of the water. Bob fought for me tooth and nail and still kept everything realistic in our conversations. I truly respect and revere his efforts and performance. While I don't doubt that other lawyers are capable of handling what I was going through, I don't believe I would have found a better match in my case than with Bob. I cannot recommend him enough. Thank you, Bob, for your help in everything.

Bob took over our case and definitely went above & beyond all expectations at a difficult time. My Developmentally & Intellectually Disabled friend was in need of someone to oversee her basic daily needs, manage her money & make sure she is safe. Bob helped us with the legal necessities of my becoming her Guardian in addition to the “Big Sis” she calls me. Bob & his assistant are always personable, patient & easy to understand in a world where I have no knowledge. What a God Send and a Blessing to me and mine!

Hiring Nora was the best choice I made. Despite my parents' final wishes being very clear and in writing, my circumstances were complicated by an intransigent, irrational sibling. Nora confidently and expertly navigated court filings and the nonsense put forth by my sibling's attorneys. She showedmastery of the law, responded quickly to all my questions and concerns, and did it all with a gentle touch and awareness that this was hard and emotional for me. Her guidance and her conviction in my positions fueled my resolve to fight to the end, and the satisfying resolution I deserved.

I hired Nora after my sibling's falsely accused me of not meeting my trustee duties. It was the hardest time of my life. I lost my parents and those who were supposed to be there to support me were against me. Nora did an incredible job at clearly explaining the next steps and helping me understand what options I had available. She kept me calm and focused on one step at a time. Even when she was faced with insane drama from my sibling's she stayed positive and always reassured me everything was going to be okay. She went above and beyond countless times, especially when my mom passed. I can't imagine getting through the last years without her knowledge, guidance, and empathy. Nora has my complete trust and I highly recommend her for anyone going through similar situations.

We had a major investigation of our IDTF diagnostic facilities and one of our shareholders, a physician, faced board complaints in every state he was licensed in. It was grueling and extremely stressful. D’Arcy was recommended by another attorney and we are thankful we were able to retain her. She coordinated and oversaw all of the out of state matters that required local counsel, handled the federal matters including experts. She helped us resolve the case with minimal repercussions and managed to obtain dismissals on all of the board complaints. She was sensitive to our stress level and on one hand was extremely compassionate with us and on the other - relentless with the opposition. We now recommend her to everyone and use her for our compliance and litigation matters. She prevents us from unknowingly getting into trouble.

Ms. Downs-Vollbracht listened to me and helped me to navigate my way through some very difficult experiences of discrimination with my previous employer. I really felt like she genuinely cared about me and her advice kept me one step ahead of them. She has subsequently assisted me with other matters, such as starting my own business, applying for PPP Loans during the pandemic, and purchasing my first home. She is very capable, and is able to tackle any problem I present to her. After talking to her about legal matters that are stressing me out, I immediately feel less anxiety. I am confident that she will handle it so I can get back to living my life without worrying and stressing about legal stuff. I highly recommend her services! She won't disappoint you!

I had the unfortunate experience of going through a contested divorce! As such, I needed a good attorney to represent me. Alyson was referred to me by another Attorney I had been represented by in an accident case and I could not have hired a better Divorce Attorney! Alyson worked closely with me through Oral Arguments, Evidentiary Hearing, and assisted in my negotiation of my Divorce Settlement. Alyson was empathetic to my situation and provided me with clear and concise information to assist in getting on with my life! Divorce is hard and I do not wish it upon anyone, however, Alyson is without a doubt who I would recommend should you need expert legal representation with Divorce proceedings. Thank You Alyson!!!

I hired Mrs. Foster to represent me in my divorce and child custody case. My case was complex, the other party refused to try to come to any agreements prior to going to court. I worked with Mrs. Foster for over three years on this case. She made sure that my children were safe and didn't give an inch when it came to that. Her and her paralegal kept me informed of everything that was going on. She also assisted me with all necessary follow up and enforcement hearings. She was very personable and I felt like she really cared about my family and the outcome of our case. She walked me through the whole process and was very upfront about everything. If it weren't for her hard work and compassion, things could have turned out very different for my children. I am very glad I decided to hire her.

She didn't always tell me what I wanted to hear, but I still felt she had my best interest in mind. Alyson strongly advocated for me throughout the divorce process. She's responsive and always returned my phone calls and emails in a timely manner. She also recommended options for avoiding unnecessary legal fees, when appropriate. Her paralegal, Nikki, was also a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend her services.

Buyer be ware! After visiting with a very close friend of mine regarding their Counsel, I encouraged this person to hire an exceptionally experienced and professional firm with a team that could serve their needs that wasn’t Jordan. Jordan essentially went MIA around mid-November. Essentially, this friend of mine asked him a myriad of questions inquiring as to how things could be moved along expeditiously in order to close out their matter. No response for weeks on end. Ironically enough, after he essentially ghosted said client, the client was presented with a bill a couple of days after reaching out to him - again, without any response to their email. After paying above and beyond the initial retainer he seemed to disappear. As a matter of fact, he was quick quick quick to respond when new representation reached out to him (as in he responded within the same day)! Lack of communication in this electronic age is unacceptable. I have encouraged this former client to contact the AZ Bar Association in order to recoup their financial losses with Jordan. He’s unprofessional at best. Moreover, he's running a one man show and he doesn’t have the resources to close things out quickly. Please be certain that any person you hire to deal with a sensitive legal matter not only takes you seriously but be sure whomever you decide to work with has ownership interest in your situation and the staff to make that a reality. I find it appalling that Jordan didn’t have the chutzpah to face this client and admit that he didn’t have the resources to help them in a timely or appropriate fashion.

Shannon and his firm was instrumental in working towards a resolution with a large corporation. My vehicle was totaled and I spent over a year recovering from my injuries. The financial impacts were devastating and limited resourcing to take on a large company.

He kept me informed every step of the way and I am forever thankful for not only his legal support but the emotional support.

I selected this law firm solely based on convenience and lack of research, my fault. Their staff is very friendly and pleasant to deal with; I will give them that. However, as my attorney, Brice was not a good fit for my case. My case involved one minor child. The goal was to have the ability to move out of state with my child. Brice had ample information and time to prepare a rock solid case on my behalf. Well, he did not do that. He went into court very unprepared, had a very sloppy and weak cross examination. He failed to mention very pertinent details involving my child and her father. Didn’t highlight the benefits for the move. I could go on and on, but ultimately I was highly disappointed with Brice’s service and out 30k. Do your research before selecting any firm!

Mr. Steven H Schwartz was referred to us as someone that could help us with the following case. My wife was involved in an accident that happened January 21, 2019 in which she almost lost her life-she was hit by a drunk driver exceeding eighty miles an hour in the rear end of the car she was driving. Without going into the details of every aspect of this, I would say, we needed the best of legal help we could find, and that's what happened. We contacted Mr. Schwartz and hired him to represent us in any legal matter that would come about as a result of this accident. I am writing this review as of December 27, 2019 - Mr. Schwartz has to this point in time shown us that he is positive, thorough, compassionate, knowledgeable, trustworthy, diligent, intelligent, confident, resourceful, punctual, does what he says he will do, explores every avenue, flexible, highly ethical, and is dedicated to provide the best legal service to our case. Although, this case has not come to an end after eleven months, the end is near, and we can say what a privilege it has been to have had Mr. Schwartz work and represent us. We could not have asked for more. Thanks!

What a Litigation Lawyer Can Do for You

A litigation lawyer specializes in representing individuals, businesses, or organizations involved in legal disputes. Whether you're the one filing a lawsuit or you're being sued, a litigation attorney will advocate on your behalf throughout the entire legal process. Their goal is to resolve disputes, either through negotiation, settlement, or trial. Litigation lawyers can help with a wide range of disputes, including contract disagreements, real estate issues, employment disputes, personal injury claims, and more.

Litigation lawyers provide strategic legal advice and manage all aspects of your case, from filing motions to representing you in court, ensuring that your rights are protected and that you have the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome.

When Should I Hire a Litigation Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a litigation lawyer if you're involved in a legal dispute that you cannot resolve on your own. Common situations include:

  • Breach of contract disputes: If a party to a contract fails to fulfill their obligations, a litigation lawyer can help you seek damages or enforce the agreement.
  • Business disputes: Litigation lawyers can represent you in cases of partnership disagreements, intellectual property disputes, or business fraud.
  • Employment disputes: If you're facing issues like wrongful termination, workplace discrimination, or wage disputes, a litigation lawyer can help resolve these matters through negotiation or court action.
  • Personal injury claims: If you've been injured due to someone else's negligence and are seeking compensation, a litigation attorney can help you pursue your case.
  • Real estate or property disputes: When there are conflicts over property ownership, boundary issues, or lease agreements, a litigation lawyer can assist in resolving the dispute.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process is beneficial, especially if a lawsuit seems imminent or you have already been served with legal documents.

What Does a Litigation Lawyer Do?

A litigation lawyer handles all aspects of your case, from the initial investigation to the trial and even the appeals process, if necessary. Their role includes:

  • Case assessment and investigation: Analyzing the facts of your case and advising whether it’s worth pursuing or defending.
  • Pleadings and motions: Drafting and filing documents to initiate or respond to a lawsuit, including complaints, motions to dismiss, and answers.
  • Discovery: Gathering evidence, including depositions, interrogatories, and document requests, to build your case.
  • Negotiations and settlement discussions: Attempting to resolve disputes through mediation, arbitration, or settlement talks before going to trial.
  • Trial representation: Presenting your case in court, examining witnesses, introducing evidence, and making legal arguments before a judge or jury.
  • Appeals: If necessary, filing appeals to challenge or defend the outcome of the trial.

Litigation lawyers are also skilled negotiators and often work to resolve disputes outside of court to save time, money, and stress for their clients.

How Are Litigation Lawyers Paid?

Litigation lawyers typically use a variety of fee structures depending on the type of case, the complexity of the legal matter, and the financial circumstances of the client. Common payment arrangements include:

  • Hourly rates: Many litigation attorneys charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and geographic location.
  • Flat fees: For specific, predictable legal tasks (such as filing a motion), lawyers may offer a flat fee.
  • Contingency fees: In personal injury or other cases where you seek damages, a lawyer may work on a contingency basis, taking a percentage of the settlement or award if you win.
  • Retainer: Some clients pay a retainer fee upfront to secure ongoing legal services. The lawyer then bills against this retainer as work is done.

The exact structure should be discussed in the initial consultation to ensure you understand how and when you'll be charged.

How Much Does a Litigation Lawyer Cost?

The cost of a litigation lawyer varies significantly depending on the nature of the dispute and the lawyer’s experience. Factors affecting the cost include:

  • The complexity of the case: More complex litigation involving extensive discovery, expert witnesses, or multi-party suits typically costs more.
  • Time spent: Litigation cases can be time-consuming, especially if they go to trial. The longer the case, the higher the legal fees.
  • Type of fee arrangement: Hourly rates can range from $200 to over $1,000 per hour, depending on the lawyer’s reputation and location. Contingency fees generally range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or award.
  • Stage of litigation: Cases that settle early in the process are often less expensive than those that proceed to trial or appeal.

It’s crucial to ask about cost estimates during your initial consultation to avoid surprises.

Top Questions to Ask a Litigation Lawyer

Before hiring a litigation lawyer, it's essential to ask key questions to ensure you're choosing the right representation:

  1. What is your experience with cases like mine?
    Ensure that the lawyer has experience handling your specific type of dispute, whether it's a contract issue, personal injury, or business matter.
  2. What are the potential outcomes of my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment of your case's strengths, weaknesses, and the likelihood of success.
  3. What is your fee structure?
    Clarify how you'll be charged, whether by the hour, a flat fee, or on a contingency basis.
  4. How long do you expect my case to take?
    While it's hard to predict, an experienced lawyer can give you a rough estimate based on similar cases.
  5. How often do you settle cases versus going to trial?
    Some lawyers are more inclined to settle, while others may be more experienced in the courtroom. It’s important to understand their strategy.
  6. What is your approach to resolving disputes?
    Some lawyers prefer aggressive litigation, while others focus on settlement or mediation. Choose one whose approach aligns with your goals.

How to Check the Credibility of a Litigation Lawyer

To verify a litigation lawyer’s credibility, consider the following steps:

  • Check bar association records: Ensure the lawyer is in good standing with the state bar and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Online reviews can provide insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and track record.
  • Look for litigation experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they have handled cases like yours and have a record of success.
  • Request references: Ask the lawyer to provide references from past clients who can speak to their effectiveness and approach.
  • Research their trial experience: If your case is likely to go to trial, ensure the lawyer has a history of courtroom success.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make your first consultation with a litigation lawyer productive, you should prepare the following:

  • A clear outline of the dispute: Provide a timeline and key details about the legal issue you're facing.
  • Any relevant documents: Bring contracts, emails, letters, or any other documentation that pertains to the case.
  • A list of key players: Provide the names of individuals or companies involved in the dispute.
  • Questions about fees and the litigation process: Make sure you understand how the lawyer plans to approach your case and how you will be charged.
  • Your goals and expectations: Be clear about what outcome you're hoping for, whether it's a settlement, compensation, or another resolution.

By coming prepared, you can ensure that your initial meeting with the lawyer is both efficient and insightful, giving you a better sense of how to proceed with your case.
