I am a member of a networking group of which the bulk of the membership is attorneys. We have people who specialize in all things - estate planning, real estate, employment, patent, criminal, family law. We cannot find a personal injury attorney. I think the impression is there are a lot out there, but in my experience, that is not true. A lot of their work is on contingency, not fees, so they are going to pick and choose strong cases. I worked with one because we had a mutual client who had been injured in a bike accident, but it took time. I think that is the issue right now.
