Problems between lawyers and clients often result from poor communication. Once you hire a lawyer, tell them you want to be informed of all developments. A good way to do this is having the lawyer automatically send you a copy of all correspondence on your matter. If problems come up, start by discussing your concerns directly with the lawyer.
