Can I afford an attorney?
The first question a consumer whos been wronged often asks is, Can I afford an attorney? People sometimes let their rights slide because they are afraid it would be too expensive to hire a good attorney to vindicate those rights.

The Goolsby Law Office, LLC, is often able to take cases on a contingency basis, which means that the client only has to pay the attorney out of the money recovered in the case.

In addition, many people are unaware that under some consumer protection laws, such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the other side has to pay the consumers attorneys fees if the consumer prevails in the case.

Whether or not such laws apply to a particular case, an initial consultation with the Goolsby Law Office, LLC, is always free. If you think your rights as a consumer may have been violated, call the Goolsby Law Office, LLC, for more information.
