How to choose a good Probate lawyer

Lawyers have had their fair share of bad press over the years, sometimes for good reason, but times are changing. Modern law firms are focused on delivering the best possible client experience and solving problems efficiently and at fixed prices.

Today’s lawyers are approachable, knowledgeable and offer real value for money. Probate and estate lawyers, in particular, need to be kind, efficient and good listeners.

When there’s a dispute – or even if there’s not – choosing the right lawyer is critical to achieving the right outcome. Look for a lawyer who will:

  • Listen to you, but stay objective about your matter
  • Keep everyone focused on the big picture, avoiding time-wasting arguments and unnecessary costs
  • Take a practical, commercial approach and encourage cooperation during negotiations

The best lawyers achieve results through logic, persuasion, and charm, not bullying or bluster. Sometimes a firm stance is needed, but remember: an empty vessel makes the most noise.
