5 Red Flags That You Need To Hire a New Lawyer

In order to make sure that you stand a chance at winning your case, it’s essential that you find good representation. Therefore, it’s vital that you put in the right amount of work to find the right lawyer for the job.

Sometimes, unfortunately, even though you may be convinced that you found a good lawyer, you could find yourself a victim of legal malpractice.

Here are some of the most telltale warning signs that you may need a new lawyer.

Lack Of Response Time

Your attorney’s job is to make you feel valued and informed at all times. If it’s an issue to get ahold of them, then it’s a red flag that you can’t depend on them.

Your lawyer should get back to you as soon as possible. If for some reason they are too busy to return your email or call, then they should still be able to give you a timeframe for when you can expect a response.

Lawyers don’t come cheap. Therefore, it’s totally reasonable to expect them to get back to you about your questions.

Late For Deadlines

When it comes to a court case, meeting deadlines is essential. If your lawyer fails to turn in paperwork on time, it could completely ruin your chances of winning.

If your lawyer misses one or more deadlines, then you should get a new lawyer immediately.

Bad Attitude

It’s vital that you have a good relationship with your lawyer. If you feel like your lawyer is impatient or difficult to work with, it can affect your chances of winning your case.

Your lawyer should have a positive attitude and treat you with respect, even if you may not have the same grasp on legal knowledge as them. Treating you as if you’re inferior is a good sign that you should get rid of them as quickly as possible.

Unrealistic Promises

If your lawyer makes big promises to you insisting that they can win your case, then this is a bad sign. Any good lawyer knows that there is no guarantee in court. Things can take a turn at any moment.

If your lawyer makes grand promises which seem too good to be true, then they’re likely not someone you should be trusting.

Unhappy Staff

Take a look around your lawyer’s office and get a feel for the general mood. Do people look motivated and happy to be working there? Or is there an air of conflict and tension? Are people communicating well amongst the team?

A lawyer is only as strong as the team behind them, so it’s a bad sign if they have an office full of disgruntled staff members.
