Hi. I’m Brent Probinsky, a lawyer with the law firm of Probinsky & Cole.

What is the best way to select a lawyer?

Well, if you have an accident or if you have a worker’s compensation case, it was an accident at work, you have to investigate a lawyer and find one who has lots of experience in that specific area of the law, whether it be personal injury or whether it be worker’s compensation.

To have a lawyer that specializes in a specific area of law for many years is the best way to ensure that you have a lawyer with the qualities that you’re going to need to bring you through a claim and obtain a proper settlement at the end.

You want to find out if the lawyer is in good standing with the Florida Bar, which regulates the practice of law in Florida. We have lawyers in Florida that are not members of the Florida Bar. They exclusive practice immigration law or federal law and it’s always better to have a lawyer who is in good standing with the Florida Bar.

Find out the experience of your lawyer. Look online. Find out from the Florida Bar how long he or she has been in practice and get someone that has the experience, the desire, the drive to help you in your case. So you come to us or you come to another lawyer with a very serious matter that’s affecting you and your family in every way.

So do your homework. Find out and obtain a lawyer that has lots of experience in your specific area of the law.

Thank you. Brent Probinsky, the law firm of Probinsky & Cole.
