Education is always an important part of an attorney’s background, so an attorney’s educational success should factor into your hiring decision. Every attorney is required to pass a stringent standardized licensing exam prior to receiving a license to practice law. The number of years an attorney has practiced, however, can help you determine whether they are better equipped to handle your case. It is always good to ask if the attorney has handled cases similar to yours in the past and if they had a successful outcome.
