The following are the types of questions you should ask an attorney before hiring him or her.

How much experience do you have in this field?
You want a lawyer who has handled the specific area of law in which you have a case. For example, if you've been burned, you want a lawyer who has handled many burn injury cases before. But you also want an attorney who operates out of the same state and region as where your injury occurred.

Laws vary from state to state, county to county and even city to city. For instance, if you were injured in the South Florida area, you want an attorney who lives in, works in, or is familiar with South Florida law.

How much attention will you be able to devote to me?
At large firms typically your case would be handed off to paralegals. You need to find a firm that makes sure qualified attorneys manage your case. At Glick Law Firm, P.A., our attorneys believe personal injury cases depend on the specifics of your situation and that it's important to be personally and actively involved in your case.

What are your rates and payment terms?
For cases involving personal injury, you want an attorney who offers free consultations and works on a contingency fee basis. This is because personal injury cases vary greatly depending on the specifics of your situation. An attorney can't reasonably tell you what your options are if he doesn't understand your case, and your lawyer should be confident enough in his or her abilities to not charge a fee until the case is won.
