Choosing a law firm in Conshohocken

Check the Disciplinary Board of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania's online directory before hiring anyone; it shows whether a lawyer's license is active and lists any public discipline. For a business or employment matter, ask about experience with companies similar in size to yours, and for any case, how regularly the lawyer appears in the Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas. Get the fee arrangement in writing — contingency for most injury claims, hourly or flat fee for business, employment and family matters.
