It is important that an injured person find out whether the law firm
he or she is interested in hiring has a website which provides free
information and forms to the person.
Many times people can do things on their own
without an attorney or with the assitance
of an attorney and it is important that
the person be able to access a law firm website
download forms on their own and get information on their own
without possibly even hiring an attorney in the first place.
But even if they are going to hire an attorney just to have
the knowledge that this attorney is willing to
provide forms and information to the general public.
The types of information that a law firm should have
on its website are:
Information regarding the different types of cases and what different
types of laws are and how they affect people's cases.
Also, a website should have free legal forms
so that individuals and injured people would be able to easily download forms
and use these forms to obtain
benefits without even having to hire an attorney.
A website should tell the public about a law firm and a particular lawyer
within that firm about what the lawyer's experience is,
what their educational background is,
what type of settlements and verdicts they have obtained,
who have they spoken to whether they扉e spoken to groups
of other lawyers and whether they've spoken to medical professionals,
and should basically describe what their level of expertise is in handling
a particular type of case.
It is very important for a law firm to have up to date information
regarding recent cases and recent changes in the law
on its website or on blogs because the law is changing every day.
And the law is not stationary.
It is constantly moving.
Laws are from day to day changing and a law firm website that
advises the general public of these
changes is providing a really valuable service
because really only the lawyers are the ones that are able to...
keep up to date and
it would be impossible or almost impossible
for the general public to be informed of the daily changes in the laws.
It is important for a law firm to have client testimonial
because many times these testimonials will give
an injured person knowledge of..
how the law firm has represented people in the past
and what type of work they've done for people in the past.
So for example: if a testimonial says:
"Mr Buckfire always returned my phone calls
and was always willing to meet with me..
...to discuss my case" That shows the injured person
what to expect when they hire an attorney and a lot of law firms
a lot of lawyers don愒 do that.
A testimonial will give the injured person
knowledge of what to expect with..
..regards to representation by a law firm.
