Litigation Lawyers in Kansas

What does a litigation lawyer do?

Litigation lawyers handle civil lawsuits and disputes between people or companies, such as breach of contract, property and neighbor disputes, debt collection and consumer claims. They evaluate the case, try to resolve it through negotiation or mediation, and represent clients in court when needed.

Before you hire a litigation lawyer in Kansas

• Confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with the Kansas state bar.
• Ask how long they have handled litigation matters and how often they go to court.
• Ask how fees work: hourly, flat fee or contingency, and what costs are extra.
• Ask who will handle your case day to day and how you will get updates.
• Get the fee agreement in writing before any work begins.
