Attorneys in Miami or Orlando
 
I'm looking for an attorney with industry experience in Miami or orlando with some good rates. Who do you recommend? I know there's a lot of information on google and what not but making that 1st call is a bit daunting and its hard to tell who is just advertising good.

His clients have a funny habit of going to prison.

laws regarding recruiting and hiring talent, as well as website copyright laws... i.e. Looking to start a site that is very similar in name to a non pornsite.

I don't often respond to the misinformation on this board, but this statement is simply not true. In my career, there have been exactly two adult industry clients who decided to accept a negotiated guilty plea, which included a prison sentence, instead of risking a much longer prison term by going to trial. One was an scat obscenity case in West Virginia, and the other was a state prostitution/racketeering case in the Panhandle of Florida. The lawyer has no control over a client's decision to accept a guilty plea. In both cases, we worked out a deal with prosecutors that resulted in substantially less punishment than the clients were facing if they went to trial and lost. If you research my career, you will find that more often, I get clients out of jail, by making compelling First Amendment arguments. Research the cases involving John Stelmack or Chris Wilson. I secured the release of both those individuals on First Amendment grounds. We've beat back many obscenity cases, which have resulted in no jail and no felony convictions. Unfortunately, any lawyer that practices criminal law will have clients that go to jail. Max Hardcore and Rob Black were defended by some of the best First Amendment lawyers in the country, and both went to jail. But I recommend that you look at a lawyer's overall career and success rate when making a decision on legal representation.
