Re: Injured for life

I agree that you need better communication. lack of communication is one of the most common grievances against lawyers in NC. You are legally entitled to fair compensation for your injuries of course. Your criminal record should have little bearing on the issues.

Re: Injured for life

It sounds like there is not sufficient communication between you and your lawyer. I think the two of you need to meet and go over all of your concerns. Your entitled to have all of your questions answered and to obtain an understanding of those aspects of the case that you are not clear on. Generally, most problems between attorneys and clients can be corrected by proper communication. Robert Johnston 843-828-1137
