Description: There is actually a subcategory of the referral site. I call them “referral firms”. These are sites that appear to promote a lawyer or a law firm.

- Hiring An Excellent Lawyer - Background Part #2
Description: Now that I work in Chris’ office I often speak to injured people who are looking for a lawyer but have no idea how to find and choose a good one. And, sadly, I often hear from people who have already hired a lawyer, are unsatisfied with their work, and are calling our office hoping that Chris will take their case so they can change lawyers. - Hiring An Excellent Lawyer - Background Part #1
Description: I am not an attorney—which some will see as a point in my favor. But I am married to an attorney—which may cause some to question my intelligence.

Description: Even if you never need a lawyer to get you out of jail, it is wise to select one in advance, so you can consult someone you know and trust when necessary. Chances are the lawyer you select will not be an "everything" lawyer-most specialize. But the lawyer can be your primary one, who can help you with most legal matters and direct you to others for specialized service.
Tell the lawyer you are interviewing two or three to select someone you can use if and when the need arises. Ask about his or her background and experience. What sort of practice does he have, what kinds of cases does he regularly handle, does he do wills and probate, handle auto accident claims, workers compensation or landlord-tenant disputes. Does the lawyer often form partnerships, do the legal work to start corporations, handle immigration matters or defend criminal cases. - Buy a horse, hire a lawyer?
