Selecting A LawyerSearching for an exceptional lawyer in a particular field is comparable to searching for the best surgeon in town. Where do you turn for guidance when you need the best?Yellow pages and websites are full of expensive, glossy ads touting thousands of lawyers, all of whom appear to be outstanding in their many fields of expertise. Common sense tells us that you can’t believe everything you read. These “ads” are not testimonials from former clients, trial judges or other experienced attorneys. They are very costly self-serving public relations tools designed to get business in the door. The costs of these expensive ad campaigns are passed on to the clients in the fees charged, whether on an hourly or contingency fee basis. The best lawyers are “AV” rated by a national independent board with input from other qualified attorneys. They have served as elected president of their county bar associations. They have been recognized and honored for excellence by their peers. Trial judges know and respect them, and clients praise their compassion, dedication and results. You will find this level of expertise at Pohlson & Moorhead LLP.
