One of the first questions people ask when looking to hire an attorney is how it will cost. All cases are different and some are more costly than others. For instance, it will generally cost more to hire criminal defense lawyers to fight a felony criminal charge than a traffic ticket. Some lawyers charge more than others. However, it is not always true that the best lawyers cost the most. To determine how much an attorney will cost, ask should ask the law firm. Most attorneys will not quote a price before scheduling a consultation because they need to learn the facts of your case. Without knowing the facts of your case a lawyer cannot accurately determine what work on the case will be required.
