Being able to communicate effectively with your attorney is central to the foundation of all attorney client relationships. Unfortunately, it may be difficult to obtain effective legal representation if you and your attorney don’t speak the same language. Many choose to rely on a third-party, such as a friend or relative to help translate.
The problem with this “solution” is two-fold. First, like the children’s game of telephone, key information gets lost and distorted along the way. In the legal arena where details matter, this can be fatal to one’s case. Second, involving a third-party may jeopardize the attorney client privilege, a crucial component of any case.
Here at Mackey Law Group P.A., we understand the importance of communicating directly with our clients. This is why we offer legal services in Spanish as well as English. If you are in need of an attorney who speaks Spanish I, Jorge Martinez, will assist you personally. No one should have to settle for an attorney they are unable to communicate with.
