How to choose a lawyer in Sioux Falls

Confirm the attorney is an active member in good standing with the State Bar of South Dakota, which also shows any public disciplinary history. Ask about experience specifically before the Minnehaha County Circuit Court, and who at the firm will actually be handling your case. For injury and workers' compensation claims, contingency fees are typical; for most other matters, expect hourly or flat-fee billing, and get the arrangement in writing.
