How to tell a good lawyer from the rest.

When looking for a personal injury attorney, the search can be overwhelming. Ads pop up on TV, the internet and publications about local attorneys, so how do you know which lawyer will represent you the best? Here’s what you don’t know: many of the ratings and certifications those lawyers have acquired, are actually a membership they got by simply paying a fee.

Just because a lawyer graduated from Harvard or Yale, doesn’t mean he or she is more qualified than an attorney from another school. Each lawyer attains training before and after the bar admission that varies greatly and could affect how they represent your case.

Although other memberships, ratings and certifications aren’t bad, there’s a small list of groups that an attorney can’t buy, only earn.
