Continuing the discussion from Bullying vs Punishment | The Big Social Political Debate:
So, this subject has interested me for some time now. If you subscribe to the advice that having a lawyer you are comfortable working with before you need to call on them, how does one go about finding a good one?
In my case, I found a good attorney (via a associates recommendation) for other issues (corporate), but that barring an actual trial all you need is a good attorney in any area, and a willingness to pay them to ‘chat’ with the gubmints police arm…
If you carry, I also suggest this basic insurance https://www.texaslawshield.com/
Referrals from someone you know and trust is usually one of the most effective ways to find a good lawyer.
Now I’ve never needed a defense lawyer, but a business lawyer I’ve used I got by simply going about the old fashion way of calling the local Bar Assoc. referral service and calling 3 attorneys who I thought would be what I needed and then set appts for an interview process. It was time consuming, but it worked.
Personal defense lawyers are probably a different animal. But I would most likely go through the same process if I had the time and I had no personal referrals.
Oh and I also looked them up with the Texas Bar to see if they had any complaints or judgements against them and/or specialty designations,etc.

She is really nice and easy to talk to if you are just asking questions. And she is willing to do defense as well. If you would like me to have her call you, pm me your info and I’ll have her contact you.
Excellent! Like a parachute, you don’t need one until you need one, but you might really need one at that point.
