Download or read book The Book on Hiring The Right Lawyer written by Gregor Verbajs and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-07-14 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, I'll tell you many alarming stories about how people make mistakes because they deal with legal matters without a lawyer, with the wrong lawyer, or even by ignoring their legal issues altogether. The consequences of their actions are sometimes shocking. If you're an entrepreneur, I'll show you how you could avoid almost any problem, or at least be informed about it in advance and thus aware of the risks and dangers you could face. But most important of all, I'll demonstrate how by hiring the right lawyer, one with the appropriate specialization, you'll have time to pay attention to what you do best - your business. If you're not an entrepreneur, I'll show you what to pay attention to when resolving legal matters. I'll present some simple tips that can solve your legal issues even if you don't hire a lawyer - although I'd certainly advise you to hire one. So I'll tell you how to find the right lawyer, with simple and effective steps to make it easy. Hiring a lawyer can prevent a physical or stress-related illness due to your legal problems, the loss of income or employment, or even a relationship breakdown, which are the most common issues people face when they try and resolve legal matters without professional help. Nearly everyone will face a legal problem at some time in their lives, but without the right lawyer the problem is unlikely to have a satisfactory outcome. Try dealing with a legal issue on your own, or even worse, ignoring it, and you're gambling with your property, and perhaps even your life. This book will thus give you everything you need to know so you can hire the right lawyer and avoid a legal problem from becoming a legal nightmare.
