I am a Miami Lawyer, practicing Personal Injury, Criminal Law, Immigration, Divorce, etc. and I deal with several clients on a daily baisis. I think that clients are entilte to get the best attorney possible. I think that every client in legal matter, (whether it be Personal Injury, Criminal Law, Immigration, or Divorce) should possess the following "basic client rights:as published by the Florida Bar
When I retain a lawyer, I am entitled to one who:
1 WILL be capable of handling my case.
2 WILL represent me zealously and seek any lawful means to present or defend my case.
3 WILL preserve my confidences, secrets or statements which I reveal in the course of our relationship.
4 WILL give me the right to make the ultimate decision on the objectives to be pursued in my case.
5 WILL charge me a reasonable fee and tell me, in advance of being hired and upon my request, the basis of that fee.
6 WILL show me courtesy and consideration at all times.
7 WILL exercise independent professional judgment in my behalf, free from compromising influences.
8 WILL inform me periodically about the status of my case and, at my request, give me copies of documents prepared.
9 WILL exhibit the highest degree of ethical conduct.
10 WILL refer me to other legal counsel, if he or she cannot properly represent me.
again, i welcome questions regarding florida personal injury cases. As mentioned before, I am a Miami Lawyer, practicing Personal Injury, Criminal Law, Immigration, Divorce, etc. and I deal with several clients on a daily baisis.
