• Knowledge and skill — No two personal injury lawsuits and no two clients are exactly the same in the legal issues they involve. Your personal injury attorney should have the knowledge of the law and the skill to handle your case the way you want it to be handled, and help you get the settlement you need and deserve.
• Compassion and respect — The process of filing a personal injury lawsuit can be a stressful and trying time for victims and their families. The right attorney for you should be compassionate about your personal circumstances and respectful of your wishes. You and your attorney should be able to work together to proceed through the legal process and help you receive a settlement.
• Legal options — Many personal injury lawsuits can be settled without the claim ever going to court. Arbitration and mediation are just two of the ways your attorney can help you receive a settlement without taking your claim to trial. The attorney who is right for you and your lawsuit is one who can offer you many different options and solutions for how to help you receive a settlement without having to take your claim to court.
• Good communication — The law surrounding personal injury lawsuits can be complex and difficult to understand. Be sure you choose an attorney who can explain the law as it pertains to your case in a way that you understand and can help you make an informed decision.
• Comfort and confidence — One of the most important factors in choosing an attorney is how you feel about their ability to handle your lawsuit. Your attorney should make you feel comfortable and confident that they will be able to handle your case the way you want it to be handled.

Making sure you get the representation you deserve is all about taking the time to research and find the attorney who is right for you. The right attorney will make you feel confident in their ability and will be able to represent you the way you want to be represented.
