The               concept               of               legal               aid               assumes               that               a               party               financially               or               physically               cannot               appoint               their               own               legal               representation               and               need               help               doing               so.

Many               legal               aid               programs               in               the               U.S.,               outside               of               criminal               representation               required               by               constitutional               rights,               provide               legal               aid               based               on               financial               needs.

Court               systems               typical               administer               legal               aid               programs               and               pay               lawyers               for               their               time               assisting               cases               where               representation               is               needed.

Under               the               criminal               court               system,               the               government               level               prosecuting               the               crime               also               has               to               provide               defense               representation               to               provide               a               fair               trial.

Definition
               Lawyers               who               participate               in               legal               aid               programs               do               so               with               the               understanding               that               they               are               helping               people               who               otherwise               could               not               afford               to               hire               lawyer               on               their               own.

This               assistance               could               be               done               through               outright               assignment               of               a               case,               part-time               help               on               a               case,               or               working               within               an               organization               that               provide               assistance.

In               all               cases,               the               legal               aid               is               paid               for               by               the               government               body               that               maintains               the               court               and               case               system.
               Modes               of               Employment
               Legal               aid               lawyers               could               be               court-appointed.

These               attorneys               go               through               specific               training               and               get               listed               on               a               bank               of               names               the               court               can               draw               upon               to               take               cases               paid               for               by               the               court.

Alternatively,               the               lawyer               could               work               for               a               clinic               that               is               funded               with               a               grant               or               a               government               program               to               specifically               provided               targeted               legal               assistance               to               an               underrepresented               demographic.

Finally,               legal               aid               can               be               accepted               by               direct               contractual               relationships               that               begin               and               end               with               a               specific               case               as               a               one-time               hire.
               Effectiveness               Depends               on               Funding
               In               many               jurisdictions               and               programs,               aside               from               a               law               degree               and               bar               license,               there               is               no               guarantee               for               a               represented               party               that               they               will               receive               quality               legal               representation.

Many               times               the               lawyers               who               participate               are               fresh               out               of               law               school               and               trying               to               make               a               start               with               basic               fees.

A               long-held               belief,               particularly               in               criminal               matters,               is               that               legal               aid               attorneys               are               overworked               and               underpaid               which               results               in               poor               representation               and               a               tendency               to               try               to               plea-bargain               or               settle               cases               quickly.
               Work               is               Sometimes               Limited               to               Research               and               Guidance
               A               number               of               legal               aid               programs               and               attorneys               work               as               assistance               centers               but               don't               perform               any               specific               representation               or               litigation               on               behalf               of               needy               parties.

Such               operations               take               legal               aid               funds               through               grants               with               the               intent               to               provide               one-stop               advice               help               and               guide               the               poor               to               other               resources               that               may               give               specific               representation               or               results.

Others               may               limit               their               work               to               only               extreme               situations               such               as               battered               spouse/partner               services               that               only               work               with               immediate               physical               victims.

    Joseph Stembridge's blog ::What does a personal injury attorney do






    Joseph Stembridge's blog ::What does a personal injury attorney do










                   So,               you're               riding               in               your               car               on               a               perfectly               sunny               day,               minding               your               own               business,               when               WHAM!,               you're               suddenly               broadsided               by               Darcy               the               college               student.

    It               seems               Darcy               was               practicing               her               mobile               texting               skills,               while               primping               in               the               rear               view               mirror               and               sipping               her               morning               cappuccino.
                   She               never               saw               the               stop               sign.
                   But               now               you               or               your               loved               ones               have               been               injured               by               a               "distracted               driver".

    Your               car               is               totaled,               your               collarbone               is               broken               along               with               your               ankle,               and               your               right               forearm               is               fractured               in               two               places.

    There               is               going               to               be               medical               expenses,               lost               wages,               car               insurance               deductibles               and               more.

    Through               no               fault               of               your               own,               you               are               now               in               a               position               to               need               the               services               of               a               Personal               Injury               Attorney.
                   These               are               the               guys               that               are               on               every               fourth               television               commercial               that               is               aired               during               prime               time               television.

    They               claim               to               have               done               trial               after               trial,               won               million               dollar               judgments               for               their               clients               and               so               on,               so               how               do               you               decide               which               one               to               choose?
                   Well               first,               let's               see               if               your               accident               qualifies               under               the               legal               litmus               test.

    In               order               to               qualify               as               a               personal               injury               case,               it               needs               to               have               occurred               "due               to               the               negligence               or               unreasonably               unsafe               actions               of               another               person."               With               Darcy               the               college               student               distracted               due               to               the               flurry               of               texts               she               was               attending               to               instead               of               giving               the               operation               of               her               vehicle               her               full               attention,               most               personal               injury               attorneys               would               agree               that               your               case               does               qualify.

    A               word               of               caution               would               be               that               not               all               attorneys               will               agree               to               take               your               case,               even               if               you               were               not               at               fault.

    Attorneys               will               evaluate               the               amount               of               time               that               will               be               needed               to               prepare               a               case               and               negotiate               a               settlement               offer               with               the               defendant's               insurance               provider.

    If               the               potential               damages               and               ensuing               settlement               do               not               reach               a               certain               monetary               threshold,               the               attorney               may               decline               to               represent               you.

    Not               to               worry               though,               there               are               plenty               of               attorneys               that               would               agree               to               take               your               case.

    Just               look               up               lawyers               in               the               local               phone               book               or               conduct               an               internet               search               for               personal               injury               lawyers               in               your               local               area               and               you'll               see               what               I               mean.
                   With               so               many               attorneys               to               choose               from,               how               do               you               know               which               one               to               choose               to               represent               you?

    Well               a               good               question               to               ask               yourself               would               be,               "If               I               found               out               today               that               I               had               cancer,               would               I               want               a               general               practitioner               to               treat               me               or               would               I               want               the               best               oncologist               I               could               find?

    I               think               we               all               know               the               answer               to               that               one.

    An               oncologist               is               a               cancer               specialist.

    That's               all               they               do.

    They               don't               treat               ingrown               toenails               or               athlete's               feet...they               treat               cancer               and               that's               what               you               want.
                   The               same               holds               true               with               personal               injury               law.

    You               don't               want               a               general               practitioner               who               handles               a               little               bit               of               bankruptcy,               a               little               bit               of               divorce               and               some               real               estate               closings,               you               want               a               Personal               Injury               Lawyer.

    Someone               who               understands               the               nuances               associated               with               medical               records,               accident               reports,               witness               statements,               etc.

    You               want               an               Attorney               who               has               seen               cases               like               yours               hundreds               of               times               and               understands               how               to               build               a               solid               case,               because               trust               me,               the               insurance               company               only               hires               attorneys               that               they               know               will               minimize               the               potential               payout               on               an               injury               claim.
                   Looking               for               only               Personal               Injury               Lawyers               will               narrow               the               search               significantly.

    Then               you               can               call               your               state's               Bar               Association               and               ask               for               recommendations.

    You               will               also               want               to               inquire               of               friends               and               co-workers               to               see               if               anyone               they               know               has               used               a               personal               injury               attorney               in               the               past.

    You               can               also               write               down               the               names               of               some               of               the               attorneys               you               see               on               television               and               then               browse               their               websites               and               gather               as               much               information               as               possible.

    Then               call               their               office,               explain               your               situation               and               ask               if               there               is               any               fees               for               an               initial               consultation.
