U.S. News Lawyer Directory ? powered by Best Lawyers is a free resource for those seeking legal representation in virtually any jurisdiction and area of practice within the United States. Using advanced search technology, comparative tools, and easy-to-read lawyer pro?les, users can identify a lawyer that meets their speci?c legal needs.

"U.S. News helps millions of people each year make complex decisions, from ?nding the right hospital or doctor to identifying the best college, online program or graduate school," said Tim Smart, executive editor of U.S. News.
