Looking for business attorney

Hey guys,

I've looked through my local phone book and called about a dozen offices, but to no avail. No one has experience with Internet business. Who do you turn to for legal matters online? I am looking for a business attorney who may have experience or an expert in the field of Internet business. I'd be grateful if anyone can point me to someone you've hired or know of who does this.

Thanks,
Kevin

Re: Looking for business attorney

Net, That is an interesting question. Since you are looking for an internet attorney,
have you tried Googling "Internet Attorney" There are many listed.
Good luck, LUCKIEST

Re: Looking for business attorney

Since you are in Grand Prairie, try Stanton Goldberg in Dallas. He is a CPA, business, and tax attorney. I know him personally, and he can help with business formulation, etc.
Good luck,
Cliff

Re: Looking for business attorney

I haven't used an attorney in the Dallas area, but would suggest visiting the Dozier Internet Law web site:
http://www.cybertriallawyer.com/
Because so many businesses run into the obstacle that you have (finding a qualified local attorney), Dozier seems to be accustomed to dealing with things long-distance. They're not inexpensive by any means, but they do seem to have Internet Law expertise. Hope this helps. Best wishes.

  Thanks for the suggestions guys. I will look into all of your advice. No, I did not do a search for Internet attorneys because I wanted one who I could be in touch with locally and meet face-to-face. The paperwork is a lot easier that way. Thanks for the referrals. I will certainly look into them.

        DD is correct. YourSmallBiz.org markets prepaid legal services for small businesses. The URL is easier than www.PrePaidLegal.com/biz/owensdr97. WWW.GoSmallBiz.com is a partner with PPL for small businesses.

Re: Looking for business attorney

Check out the American Bar Association website. Look under 'technology'. Business attorneys are great but the internet/technology fields are highly specialized..especially when dealing with code and web design licensing.

Re: Looking for business attorney

I have clients in Texas but no offices there so, I can't recommend local counsel to you. Do check out my web site at RegulatoryWorld.Biz. Having actually taught other attorneys about internet law, I still may be able to help. Do feel free to contact me.

        Hi Steven,
        
        I appreciate the follow-up, but I'm still not done with the content. I do notice a 300% conversion rate after making some changes. Now is just finishing up the content on the pages giving information about being an advertiser, publisher, both and our TOS.
        
        I'm hoping to have our help desk up by the time you start. I am about done with everything on my part, so I will submit my changes to my partner tonight. Tomorrow, I will fax you the paperwork along with my payment details.
        
        Sincerely,
        Kevin

Re: Looking for business attorney

We have some attorneys that work in that area in our network.

Go to www.ceospace.biz and post under the NEED section in the forum.

Be as specific as possible to get best results.

Whether you want someone local or anywhere in the US, your price range, etc.

Good Luck.
