Charlotte Law Firm Offers Advice on What to Ask Before Hiring A Personal Injury Attorney

Charlotte, N.C. — Stewart Law Offices recently published an article detailing the questions that anyone should ask before hiring a personal injury lawyer.

The problem most people face when it comes to hiring a Charlotte personal injury lawyer is that they have never had to seek legal help before, says Brent Stewart, founder of the firm.

“Unless you’ve previously been injured in an accident caused by someone else, knowing what to look for in a personal injury lawyer isn’t obvious,” he explains. “Yet making the right choice is important, both for your personal comfort and for achieving the best possible results.”

Some of Stewart’s recommendations when interviewing potential attorneys include:

• Ask about the attorney’s experience.
• Find out the lawyer’s track record of success with cases similar to yours.
• Ask the attorney to point out the strengths and weaknesses of your claim.
• Have the lawyer explain the personal injury process from start to finish.
• Make sure to get a clear understanding of fee arrangements.
• Ask for references.

“It’s also important to follow your gut,” says Stewart. “All attorneys have unique styles and personalities, and one lawyer’s approach may not mesh with yours. If that’s the case, shop around for the personal injury attorney who makes you feel comfortable.”
