Selecting an attorney depends on a number of factors. Among them are
the attorney’s experience and reputation and also the level of
confidence and comfort you feel during your first meeting. Finding
someone who makes you feel comfortable makes it easier to communicate
clearly and openly about your case.
In this area of the law, closer is not always better. Having a
reputable, competent and experienced mesothelioma attorney is more
beneficial than having a nearby attorney. Most attorneys understand your
cancer prognosis. They will travel to you.
It is usually not a good idea to select an attorney based on a
promise to achieve a specific result. Although many asbestos-related
lawsuits result in settlements and jury verdicts that are favorable to
mesothelioma patients and their families, it is impossible for an
attorney to guarantee an outcome for a claim. Be cautious of any lawyer
who assures a win in court or promises that you will receive a specific
amount from a settlement. On the other side, experienced mesothelioma
lawyers often collect millions for their clients, sometimes without
even going to trial.
