How should an attorney new to investing marketing themselves?

I've been practicing law for the last nine years and recently decided to dive into real estate investing.  I'm going the wholesaling route to start. I'm a business lawyer, but I've also handled bankruptcy cases, consulted on some foreclosure defense cases and handled loan modifications for some of our clients. Here is what I learned:

*bankruptcy clients, similar to short-sale clients, always wish they'd done it sooner; 

*loan mods almost never happen; and

*foreclosure defense, for the most part, amounts to a delay tactic. Unless you have the money to pay, you will eventually lose the house.

I feel like this experience will be of tremendous help when talking to homeowners face-to-face. However, I'm wondering how (and if) I should leverage this background in a yellow letter campaign. I don't want to come across as untrustworthy (a lot of people are suspicious of lawyers), neither do I want people to misinterpret and think I'll be giving legal advice.

Any thoughts on how to approach this?
