Why do you need a lawyer?

There are many things in this life that we can do on our own.  The problem is that often we miss details that a professional can pick up on.  It’s easy for individuals, who don’t know any better, to allow an insurance company, a district attorney, the Department of Children’s Services or any number of other individuals or agencies to take advantage of them.  Do all of those in power take advantage of the average person? No.  Do some of them? Absolutely.  How does the average individual know if they are getting the best deal or treatment? Hire an attorney.

When you hire an attorney, if nothing else, it keeps the other side honest.  It lets them know that you at least want someone looking out for your best interest.  It also gives you, the client, someone to help you understand what’s going on.  Often law is tricky.  So much so, that even attorneys can’t know it all.  At least with an attorney by your side, you have a much greater shot at getting treated fairly.
