2. During the first meeting, the attorney at law has to understand your situation. After he has to give you some advice about the procedure and the strategy you will adopt. The attorney has to insure the success of your action.

3. You don’t know all the law notions. The attorney has to explain you the situation with a simple and understanding language.

4. Prices can be per hour or with fixed-price. Negotiate the amount before the beginning of the procedure and sign a contract to have a basis. Don’t forget that attorney at law at New-York always gives you the price without tax.

5. Your attorney at law at New-York should tell you regularly about the state of your procedure.

6. Don’t let the attorney decide for a procedure you have not chosen. Some attorneys tend to make the situation worse instead of finding a compromise. You have to be the leader of your case.

7. Avoid having a friend as an attorney. Sometimes friends are too much implicated and can’t follow your case with enough detachment.
