Yes! First, be actively involved in your case. Take the time to learn and understand what’s going on. Ask questions. Follow your lawyer’s instructions and be truthful with your lawyer at all times. Volunteer to help with the work whenever possible. Have reasonable expectations of your lawyer and your case. Seek ways to settle your issues. Don’t insist on fighting to the bitter end over small issues. When talking to your lawyer, avoid long, detailed, dramatic stories unless your lawyer indicates they need the details.
