Finding Attorney

[Brandon G.]

I believe it's going to be important that I find a good attorney right from the start to help me along the way. The first order of business is to get advice on how to setup my company and other answer other general business questions. Then I would of course need advice specific to real estate. 

I'm wondering if I should look at getting at least 2 lawyers: One who specializes in setting up business and other basic business advice and another one who specializes specifically in real estate law. So what's my first question.

My second question is where do I find a GOOD attorney. I was looking on sites that rate attorneys like avvo and like the idea that clients can rate them. I'm thinking that reading reading several online ratings is better than just getting a referral from a family member since a family member is technically just one rating. So are rating sites a good way to find attorneys or are they rigged? How did you find your lawyer?
