: Maryland Injury Lawyer BlogAttorneys, Blogs and Social Media
On Monday, I wrote about the plaintiffs' lawyers' flawed economic model. Now, an ABA Journal survey tells us that social media does not help clients find lawyers and blogs don't work either.

So how do you get cases? Apparently, "trusted sources" are the most popular way for consumers to find an attorney. Forty-six percent surveyed would ask a friend, family member or colleague for an attorney referral; 34 percent say they would contact an attorney they know or whom they have used before.
This strategy works great in picking a good movie or restaurant. It is the worst possible way to pick a lawyer for a serious personal injury case.
