Top 3 Questions You Should Ask a Denver Business Lawyer Before Hiring Them

As a Denver business owner, you’re aware of the need to have relationships with certain professionals, including a Denver business attorney. Whether you decide to hire one from the very beginning or you’ve decided to change attorneys, there is a process every business owner should go through to find the right Denver business lawyer.

The Denver Business Lawyer Interview—Why You Shouldn’t Skip This Step

After doing some research to find Denver business attorney candidates, it is important to have a consultation (or interview) with them. The importance of the consultation process should never be overlooked. While finding a Denver business lawyer with a good reputation is essential, their reputation doesn’t necessarily have much to do with how well you will work together. Get together, discuss what you need and make sure to ask a lot of questions before hiring anyone.

The Top 3 Questions to Ask a Denver Business Attorney

There are many questions you can ask your candidates, but these three questions are likely the most important ones you’ll ask.

1. “What is your experience?” Experienced business attorneys provide to-notch legal services honed over years of practice.  When choosing an attorney who to adequately represent you in in a business law court case or drafting your company’s most important legal documents, experience is an important consideration.

2. “If I Experience Legal Issues, What Approach Will You Take To Resolve Them?” Some attorneys are extremely aggressive and others take a more passive approach. These approaches may or may not suit your needs. Interviewing an attorney and asking this question will give you an idea of whether or not the attorney’s approach is closely aligned with your interests.

3. “What Is The Cost Estimate For Taking Care of My Business Legal Needs?” Some Denver business attorneys charge by the case or specific services provided and others charge legal fees by the hour. Many attorneys utilize paralegals whereas others do most of the work themselves.  Try to get a ballpark figure of legal costs so you can properly budget for your legal needs.
