Enlisting the help of a law firm is something which most of us seldom do, which is why most Americans are unfamiliar with what they should be looking for when choosing a law firm in Wichita, KS. We often receive questions such as, “How much does experience matter?”, and “How can I balance what I can afford with what type of lawful advice or assistance I need?”
We at Fleeson Gooing have been helping clients from all over the Wichita area for over 125 years and pride ourselves on being one of the leading providers of lawful help and guidance. Because we have been in the industry for so long, we have put together a list of key considerations clients that should take into account before choosing the right law firm for their case.
Choose a Firm Which Caters to Your Needs
Different firms and attorneys will have different areas of expertise, some of which you may or may not require. For example, here at Fleeson Gooing, we specialize in the following areas:
* Litigation;
* Business law;
* Employment law;
* Banking and bankruptcy; and
* Estate planning, probate, and fiduciary law.
Other law firms may specialize in different areas, such as personal injury law or criminal defense.
Find a Law Firm with a Great Track Record
Another important factor to take into consideration is the firm’s track record, specifically with the area of law you will be seeking guidance in. We at Fleeson Gooing are proud to boast a fantastic track record which is why we have been able to remain in operation for over a century.
Most law firms offer free initial consultations where you can ask the attorney about the law firm’s success rate with cases such as yours. If, at that time, you know who your attorney will be, ask them personally about what their success rate has been.
Education and Experience Matters
Where the attorney received his or her education may play a role in how well they will be able to help you with your case. What is even more important, however, is the amount of experience the attorney who will be guiding you has. For in-depth and difficult cases, you will want to choose the most experienced attorney at the law firm to help with your case. Our law firm has over 20 attorneys working with us here at Fleeson Gooing, which allows us to pair the right attorney up with the right client.
Work with an Attorney with Whom You Are Comfortable
Finally, it is important that clients find an attorney with whom they feel comfortable sharing information and whom they know will work hard and in their best interests. Our attorneys who are listed at Fleeson.com know that listening to clients and making them feel at ease is an important part of developing a strong client-attorney relationship. In order to win a case, the attorney and client must feel comfortable enough to share information, talk strategy, and respect one another’s views.
