How do you get a lawyer to listen to you? -

I have just hired a lawyer who cuts me off and wont let me finish a sentence. I am worried he doesnt have all the details of the case. Everytime I try to say something he raises his hand and shushes me,,,,,,,,,

You get a new lawyer. You may get the lawyer to listen to you once, but this person has an ego problem and a communication problem. You can t change the person. If you are stuck with this lawyer, I would recommend that you put things in writing. That way, you can touch on all the bullet points and you can leave the document for your attorney to read later. Even if the attorney doesn t read it himself, his associate or paralegal might take the time to read it and that could be helpful to you.

Get a new lawyer... This America and lawyer are dime a dozen...

uh...who pays the bills here? TELL HIM TO SIT DOWN AND LET YOU FINISH YOUR THOUGHT: or dump him

It could be that he is protecting you. If you say too much you limit the lawyer s options in representing you. Next time, ask if there is some reason that he keep interrupting you and sushing you. If you are not satisfied with the response, then get a new lawyer.

Pay him lots of money!

1. Let him know that he needs to listen to you or you will find other representation. 2. If he fails to listen to you, follow through on your promise.
