Where to Find a California Personal Injury Attorney

  • California State Bar
  • California Trial Lawyers Association
  • American Association for Justice
  • Friends and Family
  • The premier web directory www.AllLaw.com, which can help you find legal counsel in San Francisco, San Jose, Los Angeles, San Diego, Long Beach, and Fresno.

    To narrow your list, try these methods to determine if your candidates are well qualified, reputable and ethical:

  • Ask the California State Bar if your candidate has any blemishes on his or her record
  • Request references and trial records from the attorneys themselves
  • Ask general practice lawyers, friends and colleagues for information about your prospective personal injury attorney's reputation
  • Take the Time to Meet with your Candidates in Person

    A personal meeting may be the best way to determine your candidate's demeanor, work philosophy, and personal communication style. Ask your attorney questions that may shed light on how they conduct business and give insight into how your case may be handled. These questions might include:

  • How many cases do you try in a month?
  • How long does a personal injury claim like mine typically take to resolve?
  • Have you won any awards for your work in personal injury law?
  • Do you have experience representing cases like mine?
  • Will you be handling my case alone or will you rely on a support team?
  • How much will it cost to retain your services?
  • Have you published any books or articles on personal injury law?
  • Asking questions like these may help you understand a little more about that particular professional. After the interview, jot down your initial reactions to your candidate. This may help you decide on the best California personal injury attorney for your case.
