Finding a good genuine lawyer is a tough task. Before you meet any lawyer make all the proper facts, evidence, and relevant documents of the case ready. Also, prepare your questions ready.
At the meeting tell your lawyer all your priorities, expectations, and other important things about your case.
Ask your lawyer as many questions as you want to ask and clear all your doubts.
Clear your fee issues in advance.
Ask him about his experience in the field of law and may also ask him for any record where your lawyer had appeared in similar cases.
Ask about his existing client's contact details to make sure how the lawyer is perusing their case.
Ask your lawyer about how you can communicate with him and at what hours via Email, phone call, etc.
And most important client knows his case best. The lawyer should give respect to his client at the highest level.
