Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose Delhi Law Firm?
We are in an age of specialization. As times have changed, no lawyer can possibly keep up with all areas and complexities of the law, and that is why our team is comprised of the top legal minds, each with their own area of practice. Our firm is also unique in that while we all specialize in various aspects of the law, the size of our legal team allows us to offer counsel on nearly any facet of the law.
How will I know which lawyer in the group is best for me?
Our leadership team at the Delhi Law firm will determine which lawyer can best represent you in handling your case. It may not be possible, or advantageous, to have one lawyer handle all of your legal matters. One lawyer will be responsible for the overall progress of the case, but from time to time, another lawyer may perform certain duties within the case itself. Please do not be concerned if your case is handled by a different lawyer within our firm, as ‘your lawyer’ will still be your lawyer. This is merely another sign to you that we are doing our best to handle your case as professionally and efficiently as possible.
How will I be kept informed of my case?
We understand the importance of communication and transparency between lawyer and client. Although we would like to talk to you weekly by telephone, that would be neither practical nor productive. Legal matters have a way of stretching out over long periods of time. To you, it may often seem like ages have gone by without activity, however, in fact, much behind-the-scenes work is being completed so that on the day your matter is ready, nothing will be overlooked. In order to keep the cost of legal services down while maximizing communications, we will strive to keep you informed when anything important happens and to respond to your questions in a reasonable time. In addition, we will inform you when your presence is required, either in our office or in court.
