Navigating the Legal System With A Travel Guide and Translator

IMG_1436.JPG

Imagine you decided you wanted to travel to a foreign place where you don’t speak the language or understand all the customs. What would it be like to try to communicate with the local people? What would it be like to navigate around, unsure about where you are and what you are doing? Some people, when confronted with this scenario, are perfectly at ease and don’t need guides or translators. Others want help in their travels and rely on guides to better their experiences, provide safety and security, and translate the local language.

Navigating through the legal system can very much be like being in a strange and foreign place, where you don’t speak the language and don’t understand all the customs. Unlike a vacation, your initial voyage into the legal system isn’t always by your choice-- you don’t always choose where you are or how you get there. This is where a good lawyer comes in. A good lawyer at your side is like having a person that speaks the strange local language of the legal system. A good lawyer understands and communicates the road map of courtroom procedure and helps you under the rules of the road. They help you negotiate within that foreign place, so that you don’t get taken advantage of, providing you peace of mind and assurance that you know what you are doing. Being in the civil or criminal justice system can be extremely frustrating, confusing, and complicated. With the right guide, however, you can ensure a better likelihood of reaching your preferred destination and getting home in one piece. A good lawyer is very much like a travel guide and translator. Make sure you never attempt to navigate without one. The Borghardt Law Firm is ready to be your travel companion on your journey.
