Choosing a lawyer is not a difficult task. However choosing a good one is what is very difficult especially if you do not know how to go about it. This article considers some of the process involved in choosing a good New York business attorney.

Finding a good lawyer entails going through three main stages. The first one is the identification stage. The other ones is the scrutiny stage and the final one is the selection stage. These stages are further discussed below.

The identification stage involves identifying various business lawyers. It is important that if you want to get a good lawyer, then you start by identifying many of them then selecting the best one out of the ones you have identified. Identifying lawyers is not an issue as there are several ways on how one can identify them.

The identification process involves looking for many lawyers who are practicing in New York. This can be done by visiting the directories for legal services. At the directories, you will be able to identify the type of legal service you are looking for and the lawyers who provide it as well as their contact address. You can also consider going for referrals from the bar association or referrals from your friends, colleagues and relatives. The most important thing at this stage is to identify the lawyers irrespective of the process you use in the identification. One should consider only the process which they are comfortable with.

The other stage to be considered after the identification stage is the scrutiny stage. At this stage, you will need to collect information regarding the profiles of the lawyers identified. The scrutiny should be based on their profiles. The following are some of the factors of scrutiny to be used.

Only those who are experience should be left the rest who are not having relevant experience should be left out. The other factor of scrutiny to consider is the area of specialization. You should only go for the lawyers who are specialized in the area of business you are operation in. The others who are not specialized should be left out as well. The reputation of the lawyers as swell be used as a factor of scrutiny. The whole idea of doing the scrutiny is to compare the profiles of the identified lawyers and to remain with the best ones to proceed to the next stage which is the selection stage.

The selection stage involves the actual selection of the lawyer to hire his or her services. At this stage, you should be able to book for an appointment with all the remaining lawyers after the scrutiny. Having a one on one talk with them about your business will enable you to know more about them hence will enable you to select the best one to work with.

The last stage is the selection stage. This involves the actually selection of a lawyer to provide the services to you. After scrutinizing them, you should go ahead and meet with the ones remaining after the scrutiny. The purpose of meeting them is just to know more about them and to also enable you to make an informed choice for the lawyer to use.
