Qualifications and Attributes to Look for When Hiring a Lawyer

The attorney-client relationship is one of the most important affiliations in your life. After all, your lawyer is someone who is representing you in one of the direst situations you will probably face. Therefore, you must feel comfortable with your attorney on a variety of levels. First, you have to be confident in the extent of his knowledge, background and reputation.

Second, you have to feel at ease when communicating with your lawyer, since he will be your confidant and entrusted with your personal history.

Third, you must trust in your attorney’s ability to keep your private information confidential. Fourth, when you speak with your attorney, you should feel certain that he is truly listening to you as an individual – not as just another client. Finally, you must feel assured that your lawyer will be with you for the long haul and vigorously advocate on your behalf – from the beginning to the end of your case.

Brian D. Joslyn of the Joslyn Law Firm unwaveringly meets these requisite factors and freely attests to his client and professional commitments.

This privilege is the right of every client to engage the trust and confidence of his or her attorney, or the promise that everything communicated between them will be kept confidential. The client is the person who holds this privilege, not the attorney. This enables each client to retain the ability to communicate the facts and circumstances of his or his case, without fear of unauthorized disclosure.
