Finding an Attorney

[DaytonBuck]

I have some specialized legal issues I'm dealing with and need something better than a local BAR association recommendation to find an attorney. Unfortunately my situation isn't something a friend or even the attorneys I know can recommend to me. I'm looking for something to point me in the right direction of attorneys that can handle federal court in Ohio.

Try a Google search on your topic of interest. Narrow it down as much as possible.


"What do you call 100,000 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean?"
"A good start!"

This isn't a speeding ticket or a will, I need someone who's experienced in trials at the federal level. Google provides me BS and ads for Ronni Deutch.

I think the class of lawyers you are looking for don't advertise, i.e. old school. If you belong to a professional or service organization, for example, Ohio Education Association or Lions club, that may be a good place to start. There should also be a listing for the Dayton ABA chapter. Contact them.

Give BKB a pm. He may be able to point you in the right direction.

First defense: "It was not my computer"

Second defense: you did not know that the girl in the file "Little hottie" was a minor!

I cannot recommend one specifically, but I would think your best option would be to choose one who's last name ends in "berg" or "stein"

98% of attorneys give the rest a bad name. Insiders is the way that has worked for me. If you know a really good one in one field, many times they know the top ones in the other specialties.

If you know anyone who works for one of the top tier firms in Ohio such as Vorys or Bricker, ask them. Even if it's not something that they handle, they'll have a rolodex full of highly respected specialty attorneys to cover any contingency work like real estate or criminal law for their regular clients.

It sounds as though you may need a substantial firm in the first place, so it doesn't hurt to contact a couple. All they can say is, "we're not interested."

Guess you need something better than Rion & Rion.

Call the local bar association or even OSU's school of law to ask them for some names.
