That is one of the problems with finding a attorney through yellow page ads or internet marketing. You will find that it is easier to work with a local attorney rather than a big firm that is far away. So when looking for a Atlanta personal injury attorney look for the large page full page ads. Not because a bigger ad necessarily means that an attorney is more qualified but because a successful attorney will usually go with the bigger ad just in case it makes a difference. You will find that the attorneys that buy the full page ad turn out to be of two types:
1. The first being a huge firm that is not located in your area. They can afford to buy large ads anywhere they need to in the off chance that it will land them a big case.
2. The second kind is the one that you want to contact. A local firm that has a good reputation and has enough business coming in to afford the full page ad.
When looking for an Atlanta personal injury attorney there is one place that you should avoid all together. The TV ads that run so often that you can repeat the phone number even if you can quite remember the company that goes with it. These are often huge referral companies that take all the inbound call and portion them out to the members of their service. With that being the case the chance of you finding a decent local attorney with that method is close to zero.
When you have found an attorney that you think you may want to use, here are a few questions to ask:
What do you specialize in?
How many cases like mine have you handled and how have they turned out?
Will you be the primary attorney working on the case or will you be handing over to someone else?
Will you work on my case for a contingency fee? This means that they only get paid attorneys fees if they win your case and you are awarded a settlement
Everything else aside, find an Atlanta personal injury attorney that will protect your rights and that you can trust. If you do that you should be satisfied with the result.
