I think people need to be proactive when they’re trying to find an attorney. I think that if you were trying to find a surgeon that was going to do a surgery on you you’d want to look and try to find the best possible surgeon you could. And I don’t think it’s any different from trying to locate an attorney. I think that you should see if they have any client reviews, I know that one of the things we do is post our client reviews on the first page of our website but I think that can give prospective clients and idea about the person that they’re thinking about hiring.

I also think that people can check with Martindale Hubbell its national peer review ratings service. They have a website that will let you check the industry ratings of the attorney you’re looking at. And the attorney’s at this firm; Jeff and I are AV rated by Martindale Hubbell, which means we have the highest qualifications in both legal knowledge and ethics that are available in the industry. And Martindale Hubbell is a rating that is done by the lawyers on the other side of your cases so to me that bears a lot of weight.

The other thing that you can do is ask attorneys and judges in your area about the attorneys you’re looking at because they will know without question who does what. What the reputation of those attorneys are so I think that’s a beneficial way to try to find one too.

Texas Personal Injury Attorney, Frank Lyle, talks about what you should look for when looking for an attorney. He explains that when it comes to finding an attorney, I believe it’s important for people to be proactive in their search. Just as you would carefully choose a surgeon for a surgical procedure, finding the right attorney requires careful consideration. One way to assess an attorney’s reputation is by checking client reviews. For example, on our firm’s website, we prominently display client reviews to give prospective clients an insight into our services and track record.

Additionally, you can consult Martindale Hubbell, a national peer review ratings service. They offer a website where you can check the industry ratings of the attorneys you are considering. It’s worth noting that both Jeff and I, the attorneys at our firm, hold an AV rating from Martindale Hubbell, which signifies the highest level of legal knowledge and ethical standards in our profession. This rating is based on evaluations from other attorneys who have dealt with us in legal matters, and I believe it holds significant weight.

Furthermore, seeking recommendations from other attorneys and judges in your local area can be beneficial. They possess firsthand knowledge of the attorneys and their reputations, making them a valuable resource in your search.

By utilizing these methods, you can make an informed decision and find an attorney who best suits your needs and has a reputable track record.
