What to know about Lawyers
There is no national law licence in the United States. Each state decides for itself who may practise inside its borders, and each keeps its own roll of admitted attorneys. Someone admitted in Ohio cannot simply take on your Arizona case. So the first question when you hire is not whether a lawyer is good, but whether that lawyer is licensed where your problem sits.
