Legal Representation - Already Represented? Right to Get a Second Opinion

Do you need a personal injury attorney and trial lawyer but are already represented? Or, are you now in the process of selecting a personal injury attorney?

If you are already represented, there are questions that you need to ask your current attorney. It should be noted that the Florida Bar, the organization that licenses and regulates attorneys in the State of Florida, allows clients to get a second opinion from another attorney. In other words, an attorney can provide a client who is already represented with advice. The client has the freedom to contact other attorneys to get advice and if the client desires to do so - the client can switch attorneys; however, if the attorney handling the file has put in a great deal of time, effort, and resources - there could potentially be an attorney fee lien on the case. A client should make an informed decision when selecting an attorney. In addition, a client should make an informed choice when making the decision to switch attorneys. As noted in noted in an ethics opinion published by the Florida Bar, "a lawyer may give a second opinion to a person who is represented by counsel on how the person's current lawyer is handling the case or give information on the services the lawyer may provide"

Do not feel shy or intimidated, as the responses could impact your financial future and physical well being. If you are not satisfied with the responses, you are free to seek additional advice and Counsel.
