Internet Lawyer: Litigation

If you are looking for an Internet lawyer, what skills are you seeking? If you have business or compliance issues, and are worried about whether you are complying with the laws, would you hire a business lawyer? Or a trial lawyer or litigator who is actually handling the legal issues arising from the same problems you are worried about?

As an example, at Traverse Internet Law we handle a lot of active, open FTC matters with real FTC lawyers on the other side. Working through this type of litigation or legal action is invaluable in terms of acquiring an understanding and appreciation for what the FTC expects and where the line is drawn. Otherwise, an Internet lawyer can rarely develop the knowledge to offer high quality guidance on FTC compliance except in the most obvious situations.

Keep that in mind as you look for an Internet lawyer that can bring real value to the relationship.
