What 3 Questions Should You Ask Before Hiring a Sioux City Attorney?

Written by Jeana Goosmann | Dec 15, 2015 5:00:00 PM

Many people experiencing legal disputes walk into a lawyer’s office nervous and anxious about the experience. In order to reduce anxiety and ensure you hire the right attorney, it is important to consider what questions to ask.

Here are 3 of the most common questions to ask before hiring a Sioux City attorney:

1. What is your typical client?

This is an important, but often-overlooked question. For example, if you are seeking an attorney to handle your divorce and the attorney you’re meeting with represents only corporations, this may not be the best lawyer for your legal matter.

2. How many cases like mine have you worked with?

It’s important to hire an attorney who understands what is going on in your case. The more experience in that particular area of law, the better.

3. How will a Sioux City attorney respond to your questions?

Attorneys are busy; often times they are tackling more then one project. As a result, you should ask your lawyer how they will respond to your ongoing needs. How quickly will they return calls? Does the attorney have someone on hand to answer quick questions should they come up? 

By asking these three questions, you can gather the right information to decide if you want to work with a Sioux City attorney.
