Questions to ask before choosing a Law Firm

Does the firm appear in the court and jurisdiction shown on my paperwork?
Who would attend court and what preparation is included?
Can the firm assess the matter before the next date shown on the document?
Is the estimate for advice only, a first appearance or the matter through to completion?

What to prepare for a first enquiry

The charge, notice or court document and its exact date
A factual chronology for the lawyer rather than a public search field
Details of any bail, reporting or licence conditions
Questions about Legal Aid eligibility if private fees may be difficult

Check identity and current credentials

Law firm information is not a recommendation or a current practising certificate check. Confirm the individual and firm through the relevant professional register, agree how documents will be shared and do not send confidential material until the law firm confirms a secure process.
