Editorial Book Review:

By SM Harrison

David W. Craig's It's Never Been Easier to Hire the Wrong Attorney is a sharp, essential wake-up call. He furnishes readers with the information they require to make one of the most consequential decisions of their lives: selecting the appropriate legal representation. He does so with clarity, urgency, and authority. This book is not only pertinent; it is indispensable.

Craig’s writing style is lucid, focused, and unpretentious, making complex legal ideas accessible without dumbing them down. He writes with the ease of a seasoned expert and the empathy of someone who has seen too many people misled or underserved by attorneys unqualified for the job. The structure is both strategic and inviting, as the chapters progress quickly, imparting essential lessons through real-world examples, practical checklists, and pointed questions that readers should be asking prior to signing a contract with a lawyer.

Empowerment is the fundamental theme of this book. Craig explores the dissonance between perception and reality in legal marketing, emphasizing that competence and ethics are not equivalent to charisma, flashy websites, or bold promises. He conducts an analysis of the risks associated with general practice attorneys who handle specialized cases, particularly in personal injury law, and offers a comprehensive explanation of how to assess an attorney's honesty, track record, and experience. The message is clear: the repercussions of hiring an inept attorney are not limited to financial losses; they may also encompass the loss of justice, peace of mind, and one's future.

The book is enlightening from an intellectual perspective. It provides readers with a novel perspective on legal professionals and challenges commonly held assumptions. Emotionally, it instills confidence by converting fear and uncertainty into clarity and control. Craig does not merely identify the issues; he provides actionable, easily digestible solutions that not only inform but also safeguard the reader.
