How Long After Hiring An Attorney And Signing The Contract Should You Receive A Phone Call From Them?

Saturday, November 7th, 2009

This is an injury/accident lawyer. I met with the investigator and signed the contract they said they’d get right on it, i do think they are a good team of lawyers. My last Lawyer i hired didnt even call me i waited after a 2 weeks and called them , left messages no one ever called me back, kept calling and they gave me a big ole run around then dropped my case after 2 months. I told them to send me my files and all they had was a phone number to the other guys lawyers. So anyways i knows its only been a day but how did your previous experience work when you hired an attorney?

What Is The Best Course Of Action To Take When You Receive A Letter From An Attorney For An Old Debt?

Sunday, November 1st, 2009

I live in FL and the last payment on the original account was Dec of 03. I was contacted by a debt collector whom I spoke to briefly and told her this was something I do want to take care of but at this time I cannot. She continued to call until finally she told me she would have to forward my acct. Next thing I know I get a letter from an attorney telling me that I have the 30 days to validate the account or they would be taking legal action. The letter also states that interest will continue to accrue until the debt is paid. The original credit card had a $1,000 limit. Now the debt is $2,100. (Is this legal.) What is my best course of action?

My husband’s father died and he contracted with an estate attorney to file taxes for the estate. How are the proceeds distributed to my husband after the taxes are paid? Does the attorney present a check to my husband or does he go to the bank and withdraw the remainder AFTER the state tax is paid?

What Percentage Does An Attorney Receive When He Settles My Suit?

Thursday, July 2nd, 2009

In a (not my fault at all) car accident in Kentucky. How much of a percentage does an attorney normally collect? Is 35% of the gross if settled or 40% if suit is filed the norm? Plus court costs and other little things. It seems to turn out they get 50% and I get to use mine to pay medical bills.
