If you work in a law office in Missouri and answer the phone, you get lots of calls from people who are looking for lawyers to help them. Right? Right! That's nothing new -- happens every day -- but sometimes, you have some unusual situations and you find you're not sure what to do with that caller.
Here are a few examples of some "out-of-the-ordinary" requests:
Your caller tells you they need to consult with an attorney about a divorce. The caller lives in Missouri, but the petition was filed by his/her soon-to-be-ex-spouse in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Can you help that caller?
What if someone calls your office and tells you they got a speeding ticket while on vacation in Knoxville, Tennessee. The caller tells you there's a mandatory court appearance and they need to hire an attorney to represent them. Not sure what to tell them?
Your next caller tells you they want to talk with an attorney about the auto accident they were involved in last week. You find that the accident happened in Towson, Maryland. What do you do?
