There are a number of books, written for people with legal problems, on how to select an attorney. There is no law school class on how to select an attorney. However, future lawyers are taught that clients have certain rights such as a right to zealous representation and a right to have their attorney diligently advocate their interests within the bounds of the law and applicable legal ethics. Clients are entitled to know the identities of the individuals, attorneys and staff, who will be responsible for the handling of their case. Clients have the right to a written fee agreement clearly describing the financial arrangements with the lawyer and what services will be provided by the lawyer in return for the lawyer's fee. Clients have the right to refuse to enter into any fee agreement that is unacceptable to them. Clients have the right to itemized bills for the services provided by an attorney on an hourly rate. Clients have the right to attend all court proceedings unless prohibited from doing so by the court. Clients have the right to make the final decision on all issues relating to their case so long as their position is legal and ethical.
