When looking for a lawyer, there are a few qualities you should look for. This is to make sure you get the best service for your specific situation. Be on the lookout for these qualities:

The right type of lawyer– If you need legal counsel for an injury case, it is best to look for a law firm that specializes in accident/injury such as AKD. This will ensure that your case is handled with expert care.

Speaks in ways you understand– If you are constantly confused by what your lawyer is saying, this isn’t your fault, it’s theirs. Lawyers need to be able to speak in a clear and understandable tone. After all, you are the client.

Affordable– Make sure to find out what a few different lawyers charge. This way you can find the best deal possible and you won’t feel like you are being overcharged.

Good reputation– Ask your lawyer for references and/or a client list you can contact for reviews. If their reputation is bad, you don’t want them representing you.

Before finalizing your decision, it’s also beneficial to stay updated with the recent activities and cases handled by the law firm. For instance, AKD has been actively involved in various cases, such as the Hard Rock class action request and the French Quarter car explosion. By browsing through their recent news and mass tort sections, you can gauge their expertise and commitment. Additionally, their proficiency in specialized areas like tech physical therapy can be a testament to their diverse legal capabilities.

J. Bart Kelly, sharing Rico’s passion for upholding justice, joined the firm later that year, and established a partnership.
