How to find a good lawyer?

How many times have you asked someone for a good lawyer? How many times has someone asked you for a good lawyer? The thing is, how do you determine a good lawyer? Do you focus on cost? Experience? Relationship?

That’s nether here or there but finding a lawyer without recommendation can be stressful. However, the process is simple, especially in today’s world. You can find a great lawyer all on your own. It just takes some work.

Google:  Many people underestimate the power of google. When researching a lawyer, look at their reviews, legal verdicts, etc. Most of this information is online. And Google is a great search engine platform that can cross reference a lot of information about a lawyer.

Word of mouth:  As mentioned earlier, ask around. But ask those who you know will give you an unbiased opinion of their experience. Sometimes, people have a bad experience with lawyers because of the terrible facts of their case. So, don’t shy away from a lawyer because of someone’s thoughts of them. You might find that they are surprisingly good.

Have a conversation with a lawyer. Most lawyers do not charge for initial consultation. It is important to understand that lawyers must do what’s best for the client. So regardless of their experience or billable hour, they must give you advice that will best suit you.

Test them:  You can always fire a lawyer, mostly in the beginning of the case. When you get into the thick of litigation, judges may not allow your lawyer to remove themselves from the case. But for the most part you can seek other counsels throughout the legal process. So, don’t be scared to get the ball rolling with an attorney.

Don’t be scared to talk to or hire a lawyer. We are here to benefit you!

How to handle your divorce?

Going through a divorce is never an easy process to initiate. I’ve been through one. You make a vow to stick with someone for the rest of your life. And then all of sudden, you find yourself arguing everyday and totally loathing the presence of the person.  So I’m writing this blog post to hopefully help others who are thinking about going through this process; or those who have started the process already.   I handle a few divorce cases and I’ve learned prearranged agreement is always better. I think too many times spouses are wanting to get the most out of a divorce. But, in the process they drain their personal finances. People see a lot of high-net-worth individuals on social media and television getting divorces. You see the ridiculous amounts of money for child support and alimony.  However, in everyday life, people don’t have access to millions of dollars and multibillion dollar companies.  With that being said, my encouragement a lawyer is to make sure you to work out an agreem

When a founder leaves from a legal perspective?

In a world of venture capitalism, tech company selling, and Shark Tank; it is important to make sure that the transition is done well legally.  Not too many founders and/or acquiring companies think the transitioning through regarding a founder leaving the company. When the founder of a business leaves, there are several legal considerations to keep in mind in order to keep the business going.   And when we mean keeping the business going, we are taking about growth. As we all know, that if you aren’t growing, you are dying. Succession Planning: Having a plan in place for when the founder leaves can help ensure a smooth transition and minimize disruption to the business. This may include designating a successor, creating a buy-sell agreement, or establishing a board of directors. Review of Contracts: Make sure to review any contracts that the founder was party to and determine if there are any provisions that may be affected by their departure.   Not too many times do companies t

When your hardwork isn't paying off?

 How many times have we felt like we’ve been beating our head against a wall?  When your hard work isn't paying off, it can be helpful to step back and reassess your approach. Here are a few things you can try: Set specific, measurable goals: Make sure you know what you're working towards and how you'll know when you've achieved it. Get feedback: Ask for feedback from others and use it to improve.  However, it is important to make sure you get feedback from ‘right’ person. I mean, you know what they say about opinions. But, if you have the right team around you, it might be useful to gain feedback.  Learn from failure: Failure can be a valuable learning opportunity. Don't be afraid to take risks and experiment.  Some might say ‘fail fast.’ I recommend to at least execute on something.  Stay positive and focus on progress: Remember that progress, not perfection, is the goal.  If you refer back to the ‘set specific, measurable goals.’ I think too many people fail in l
