Publisher's Synopsis

Hiring a lawyer is easy, but getting the lawyer you need for a fair price is another matter. Here is an easy-to-use guide to the lawyer-client relationship, from the initial planning of the search for a good lawyer to dodging the final shock of a hefty bill. Each chapter is an independent source of useful solutions for the "lawyer-challenged:"

Do you really need a lawyer and, if so, what kind?
How to hunt down the best lawyer with a proven record of success;
How to interview the "candidate" lawyer;
How to negotiate a fair and motivating fee arrangement; and
How to help your lawyer obtain the results you desire while keeping legal expenses down.
