If your loved one has been arrested, the first thing you’ll want to do is get them out of jail.
In order to exercise their right to a fair trial, they need to spend as much time as they can working on their defense with their lawyer.
That means that the first step should be posting their bail, and the second step should be hiring a lawyer.
Here are a few tips to help you pick the right lawyer:
Take advantage of free consultations.
Many lawyers offer free consultations. During this meeting or phone call you can describe your case and get advice from them. You can also get a feel for whether or not they are someone you want to work with.
Find a lawyer in your price range.
During your consultation, try to get an estimate of how much their services are going to cost. You need to know this information up front before you get too far into your case and realize you can’t afford them.
Ask around.
Talk to people whose opinion you trust. They may have lawyers who they can recommend from personal experience.
