[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never needed a lawyer before so this is my first time contacting one. ALL OF THEM want at least $300 for a consultation... I mean, it's 30-45 minutes long just to figure out if they'll take my case or not! Is this really how it works? :shock: What if they don't take my case or if I don't "click" with them? I'll have to keep paying until I find someone? :( [/quote] I get you, OP, but what do you want them to do? Attorneys' time and expertise is worth something. Doctors, plumbers, mechanics, etc don't give you their time and assessments for free. Also, you would not believe how much more efficient a meeting can be when the prospective client is paying (and the meter is running) than when the consult is free. The PC is more to the point, shows only the most relevant written material they have, etc. [/quote]
