Attorney Directory - Personal Injury Law Firms
An attorney directory or membership list from local bar associations is normally available to area
residents. County, city and specialty bars may provide a local attorney directory, but these directories do
not necessarily include all local attorneys. In larger metropolitan areas, membership is seldom mandatory.
In less populated areas, membership may be mandatory as a condition for attorneys to appear in court.
The rationale behind mandatory membership is simple - attorneys who appear in court on a regular basis
may be randomly assigned to defend criminal charges filed against anyone who cannot afford legal
representation. Each attorney directory normally includes a list of attorneys who specialize in personal
injury law.
Using a local attorney directory
Using a local attorney directory is merely a starting point for retaining quality legal representation.
The ability of all attorneys considered is far more important. Many boutique Law Firms that specialize in
niche areas of accident law offer statewide representation, and consider travel a routine business expense.
As a result, accident victims in rural areas often have access to the finest attorneys in the state, just as
their neighbors in large cities.
