Looking for Top U.S. Injury Attorneys
Where to look, what to ask?
Word of Mouth
The good old fashioned method of asking for referrals from knowledgeable and trustworthy family, friends, community/spiritual leaders, and other professionals, is still a great place to start. Keep in mind that if your case is of a sensitive nature, or even if this is just not something you want people outside of your close circle of family and friends to know about, you should be careful about who you tell your situation to and who you ask for help. Many people find it a comfort to know that someone they are already close to has been treated well and gotten the help they needed from a potential attorney. This often makes trusting that attorney will have your best interests in mind easier because you know someone that they have already done this for is someone you already trust.
Bar Associations
Local and state bar associations are a good resource to find specific kinds of lawyers in your area. Many of them have easy to use online resources and ways to contact them by telephone if you need help. Bar associations provide information about attorneys to the public that includes whether or not the attorney is licensed, in good standing, and if there has been any disciplinary actions against them. Many bar associations provide additional information such as an attorney’s education, length of time they’ve been active, etc.
The chances of you utilizing Google or other search engines while looking for an attorney is very high. You may do this to find a particular type of injury attorney in your area, client reviews, peer reviews, professional reviews, a bar association, and other resources designed to help people find attorneys.
