One method by which you can attempt to evaluate an attorney in regard to representing business clients is by consulting the Martindale-Hubbell Law Directory in your local county law library or online at www.martindale.com.
While this may be useful, the mere fact that an attorney’s name does not appear in the book should not be given too much weight, since there is a significant charge for being included and some lawyers may have chosen not to pay for the listing. You may also wish to search the World Wide Web. Many law firms have established websites. The larger firms usually include extensive information about the firm, its practice areas, and its attorneys.
