Finding a lawyer in Allentown

Allentown is the seat of Lehigh County, part of the Lehigh Valley region between Philadelphia and the Poconos.

Choosing a law firm in Allentown

Confirm the lawyer's status with the Disciplinary Board of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania before hiring, which keeps the official record of every attorney's license and any public discipline. Ask about their specific experience with your type of case and how often they appear in Lehigh County's Court of Common Pleas. Ask who at the firm will actually do the day-to-day work and whether you'll have direct access to that person. Get the fee agreement in writing, whether it's a contingency fee, hourly rate or flat fee, before any work begins.
