Consult Multiple Sources

Following is a list of resources you can turn to when generating a substantial list of attorneys in your area:

Investigate

Your goal is to narrow your list of possible attorneys down to 3 outstanding candidates. In order to do this, you may want to take the following steps:

1. Contact professional organizations like the Better Business Bureau and the Florida State Bar Association to learn about your attorney's record

2. Consult with friends, family, and general practice lawyers to find out about your candidate's reputation

3. Request professional references and follow-up on them

4. View each attorney's website

Meet Up

Schedule person-to-person interviews with your top 3 attorneys. Bring insurance records, police reports, witness testimony, a clear description of the accident, pictures, and any other documentation you feel may help your attorney judge the viability of your case.

Trust your instincts and try to select the Florida auto accident attorney who gives you the most confidence in their professional abilities and who you also feel you could work closely with over a long period of time.
