Prepare to discuss your matter
For an injury matter, organize the information and records you already have about what happened and any resulting harm. For a criminal defense matter, gather the papers you have received and note the court or case details printed on them.
Counsel can assess an actual matter and available records. A local office address or courtroom description is useful for orientation, but does not determine the applicable court or resolve what steps a particular case may require.
