The answer is "yes."

I have a rule of thumb when people ask me "Do I need a lawyer?" The rule of thumb is: "Yes."

That sounds too simple, but simple doesn't mean wrong. Here's what happens:

Situation 1: People say "Do I need a lawyer for this problem?" and I say "Yes." and they say "But it's not very complicated, so do I really need to go to the trouble of hiring a lawyer?" to which I respond: If it's not very complicated, a good lawyer will tell you that and it won't cost much to resolve your problem -- but you'll be assured the resolution is the right one.

Or

Situation 2: People say "Do I need a lawyer for this problem?" and I say "Yes." and they say "But it's a really complicated problem, so won't I be paying a lot for a lawyer? to which I say "You might, but if it's a complicated problem, shouldn't you have professional help with it?"

I mean, here's the bottom line: If you have car troubles, you hire a mechanic. If your spleen hurts, you hire a doctor. And if you have legal troubles, get a lawyer! Whether it's personal injury or bankruptcy or workers' compensation, just hire someone competent to help you through the thicket of things you can't even begin to understand. Trust me: You will do better with a lawyer than without.
