First of all, look at the winning rate of the law firm.
The high success rate means that the overall probability of winning the law firm will increase. Although the cases vary widely, the situation of each case is different. The law firm with high success rate will inevitably carry out strict screening on the source of the case. If a case can be accepted by such a law firm and willing to represent it, the hope of winning will be even greater. According to the author's understanding, law firms with high success rate are strict in screening cases, which is also a shortcoming in choosing law firms with high success rate.

Second, look at the size of the law firm. The larger the scale, the more lawyers there are, and the more lawyers to choose from. In this way, the possibility of choosing a lawyer who is more suitable for you will also increase.
In recent years, scale has become a direction, but the author believes that under the current circumstances, scale will also have many shortcomings, such as the large number of lawyers, which makes it difficult for parties to choose lawyers. But for enterprise users who have enough time and manpower, it may be a good choice to choose lawyers from larger law firms at this time, because they can have time to compare and have past experience in hiring lawyers as a reference.

Third, look at the average age and years of practice of practicing lawyers. The author believes that the two are complementary: generally, it is best to hire young lawyers aged 30-50, so as to ensure the experience and abundant energy in handling cases; In addition, the longer the lawyer's practice cycle, the richer his experience. As the saying goes, "If you want to know the depth of a river, you must ask someone who has experienced it." Rich practical experience will help you solve the problem better.
Fourth, finally, it depends on the overall favorable rate of law firms.
Law firms with high praise rates are usually not too bad. Because there is no official survey data, the favorable rate can only rely on the survey results of the third party, but the author thinks that the favorable rate depends not only on the survey results of the third party, but also on the actual contact with lawyers by telephone and interview, because after all, lawyers are handling cases for you personally, and it is most important to choose the most suitable lawyer.
