520 _aHiring a lawyer is easy, but getting the lawyer you need for a fair price is another matter. Here is an easy-to-use guide to the lawyer-client relationship, from the initial planning of the search for a good lawyer to dodging the final shock of a hefty bill. Each chapter is an independent source of useful solutions for the "lawyer-challenged:" Do you really need a lawyer and, if so, what kind? How to hunt down the best lawyer with a proven record of success; How to interview the "candidate" lawyer; How to negotiate a fair and motivating fee arrangement; and How to help your lawyer obtain the results you desire while keeping legal expenses down. Published under the Transnational Publishers imprint.
