Questions to ask

Before choosing a criminal defense lawyer

  • What is the charge or investigation status?
  • Is there a hearing date or bond condition?
  • What fee model applies, and what work is outside the quoted scope?
  • Who will handle communication, document review, hearings, negotiation, and billing questions?
  • What local court, agency, or filing rules could affect the timeline?

Red flags

Watch for risky hiring signals

  • Guaranteed outcomes, pressure tactics, or refusal to explain risks.
  • No written fee agreement, unclear retainer rules, or vague billing updates.
  • No clear license verification route or confusing claims about jurisdiction.
  • Poor communication before you have even signed an agreement.
