A Short Online Summary Of » Employment Law Conference As Well As Other Studies
My case is scheduled for a hearing for a human rights matter but 1st I have a conference date.?
I have already met with the Human Rights Div. regarding my employment/civil rights case. Who found probable cause and sent this case on for what I thought was a trial but instead I see it is for a hearing. Prior to the hearing they have scheduled a conference with an administrative Law Judge. What can I expect? Do I have to have an attorney ? If so since I am unemployed how do I get an attorney?
You can get an attorney to take this case on a contingency fee basis, which means the lawyer gets paid from the recovery. The conference is probably a settlement or scheduling conference. Did it say what type of conference? If it's a scheduling conference, the judge will just set deadlines for various pretrial procedures. If its a settlement conference, a hearing office will try to mediate the case to see if trial can be avoided. It would be wise to have a lawyer, but you could go to the conference without one and after you discover what the conference is about, ask for a continuance to obtain an attorney. Ask everyone you know to recommend a good attorney. Even if you find an attorney that doesn't practice this area of law, he/she can give you a referral. If you've already won the probable cause hearing, it should not be difficult to find a lawyer to pick up the rest of the case. You're likely to get a higher settlement if you have counsel. The best lawyers do not advertise. You find the best attorneys from referrals.
