Consider what you need in a lawyer. Some people say they need a bulldog lawyer, meaning that they want someone who will be aggressive and fight for them. Unfortunately, bulldogs (pit bulls, or whatever breed people use as an analogy) have a nasty habit of biting people with only the slightest provocation, or biting people they don't like (even the person holding the leash).
I would say that you might want to consider a "seeing eye dog" lawyer. It doesn't have quite the same ring to it, but think about it. A seeing eye dog is docile, doesn't get distracted by outside influences, and keeps its owner out of danger while doing its job in a straightforward manner.
