How we ranked Kearny general practice lawyers

We scored 3,806 Kearny general practice lawyers on nine factors, weighted as shown. A law firm is ranked when its practice area is confirmed and it has 3 or more Google reviews or a claimed profile.

How to choose a general practice lawyer

  1. Check the lawyer’s status and any public discipline in the state bar or law society directory.
  2. Ask how many general legal matters matters the lawyer handles each year, and who at the firm will do the work.
  3. Get the fee arrangement in writing: hourly, flat or contingency, and which costs are charged on top.
  4. Ask how and how often the firm will update you, and how fast it answers calls and emails.
  5. Read recent reviews for how the firm communicated and billed, not only for outcomes.
  6. Ask how often the firm handles your kind of matter, and whether it would refer it elsewhere.
  7. Meet more than one firm; many offer a short first consultation, sometimes free.

Questions to ask a general practice lawyer

  • How would you approach a matter like mine, and what are the realistic options?

  • How often do you handle matters like mine?
