    I'm checking out some attorney's tomorrow by watching them at 341's

    We've already interviewed one, so I want to see how she does. And three other ones that we will be interviewing are also scheduled. I can't believe how freaking nervous I am, though!

    But at least it will be a practice run for when we have our own, eventually. It's in a different building from the courthouse (AND I WILL REMEMBER TO LEAVE CELL-PHONE IN MY CAR) And I can see how it goes. There's 37 scheduled with one Trustee.

    And no, I'm not choosing my attorney this way, but I'm betting it will be surefire way of being able to check an attorney off of our list, though.
    This forum is full of amazingly talented, intelligent and caring people.

    Congratulations to you, Lalalink. You actually have made a very good decision to do it this way. You are having both the 'run-through' and the *fun* of watching how well the attorneys are prepared. It is sad how many are not--nor are the clients.

    Please come back and give us your report! No names, of course!!

          Great idea Lalalink. From what I saw at my 341 yesterday, you can certainly end up with a bad attorney...fumbling over words, not being prepared...being LATE,etc...one attorney was cussing and carrying on in the hallway with a different trustee about boats and motorcycles....LOL.. Excellent way to be proactive in your case. I like when people take control over their own destiny.

            When I had my hearing, one guys's attorney was late and extremely unprepared when he showed up. The trustee told him that he'd have to file an amendment to the bankruptcy petition and he was like "oh, yeah, I can do that." Like it was something that was optional. Another couple's attorney was a no-show.

              What a great idea! I wish we had thought of doing that. We had a great attorney, but the trial run & seeing how things went would have been a huge help.

                One thing i noticed at our hearing was at least two other people meeting "their" attorney for the first time-my guess was they were with a mill and the face guy doesn't show at 341's. Also one guy didn't show up till the very end of the session-said traffic was bad.
