Can I Solve This on My Own or Do I Need an Attorney?

  • Criminal cases, personal injury lawsuits, and child custody cases need an attorney's help
  • Business contracts, estate planning, paperwork review, and real estate legal issues may benefit from an attorney's help
  • Some small claims court, traffic tickets, name changes, neighbor disputes, and more minor legal issues can often be handled on your own

Not all bad situations require a lawyer. And some good circumstances can be even better with an attorney's help. An lawyer can offer tailored advice and help prevent common mistakes.
