Working With a Lawyer Part 3

- Respect your lawyer's pride. One common characteristic amongst all lawyers is their strong pride. That comes with their profession. Sometimes it may feel that this pride borders on arrogance or egotism. Maybe so. But, so what? Actually, this feature may win your case. It gives lawyers more confidence even if they lack the experience. So, treat your lawyer with respect and he or she will do more than their very best to get you your desired results.

- Your lawyer is a professional. As such, address your lawyer in a professional way in your communication, whether written or oral. You'll get much better results. For an example, which of these two sentences do you think would get you better response by your lawyer? "We need to talk right now because my case is not moving the way I want and I want to see what you're doing wrong" �?or �?"I would appreciate if we could schedule 30 minutes of your time to discuss the current developments of my case." You get the point.

- Communicate your goals very clearly. Tell your lawyer exactly what your expectations are from your legal matter. If you deliver unclear picture to your lawyer, he or she wouldn't know how to set the "Theory of the Case." This is the first and most important step that will support every step of the trial. Your lawyer needs to know exactly what your case is truly about and establish your final objective accordingly.

- Be on time for appointments, whether in court or for anything related to your case.

- And of course, pay your legal fees promptly as agreed in the fee arrangement you made.
