There are times when you really should engage a lawyer. Failing to do so can lead to broken agreements, unsuccessful claims, discord relations or even facing of prison time.
Below are some of those situations:
- Starting a new project or creating new business relation
Lawyer can help you navigating all the legal requirements of your new project, as well as guiding you through the steps of developing your business, including establishing shareholder relation and formulating decision-making process, to ensure smooth operation of the company.
Many people may think lawyers only fix problems, but in fact, many of our works are more about precaution, such as negotiating a deal, drafting and reviewing contracts, or conducting due diligence on your business partners or new investing companies. Prevention is better than cure, and it is always better to avoid problems rather than fix them later, especially when the other parties have probably already appointedtheir own lawyers.
- Estate planning and succession
Whether you are preparing your own property inheritance arrangements, or one of your family members is old and demented or has just unfortunately passed away, you will need a lawyer. Lawyer can help to save you and your family members a great deal of stress and confusion throughout the process.
- Divorce
When you find yourself in a complicated relationship or preparing for a divorce, you will need a lawyer, in particular, in handling the tedious and complex legal procedures in dealing with the family property distribution and child arrangements for you.
- Civil dispute
Law is complicated and the advantage of appointing lawyers lies in leveraging their rich legal knowledge and experience. An experienced lawyer will present your strongest case to the court, and at the same time, know how and when to negotiate a settlement.
- Personal injury
Accidents often happen fast and without warning. It is wise to have a lawyer to fight for you during your recovery to maximize the benefits and recover what you are entitled to.
- Suspected of crime
A criminal case may decide whether or not you have to spend time behind bars. Lawyer can help preventing you from talking nonsense and making things worse.
Before contacting a lawyer, one should try to gather background information of the case and whatever evidence that is readily available, including the identity and address of the parties involved, copies of contracts and communication records, so that your lawyer can provide you with a more precise advice and suggest you the proper way forward.
