I recently found a helpful brochure named “Domesic Violence Victim’s Guide to Getting a Good Attorney” created by the Minnesota State Bar Association. It covers topics such as cirumstances that make it especially important to hire an attorney, how to find an attorney with experience, how to select from the names you find, expectations for an attorney and cost and payment for legal services. They also list the names and phone numbers for various Minnesota organizations that help people experiencing domestic violence.
