Would (s)he take sexual favours as payment or as a Christmas bonus? If not from you, then from someone in your employ?

Its always a judgement call. I just would explain what I do and ask what can you do for me? If I believe his answers then I would choose him.

Sorry, KMR. I have no idea. Once they get all specialized like that, I'm in over my head. Maybe find a law forum online or a FAQ that could tell you what kind of lawyer does what?

Good advice, ask the lawyer for past experiences (without naming his clients' names) and how they relate to your business. There's no point hiring a lawyer so you can teach him how your industry works. Go with someone who has a good reputation (ask other similiar businesses who they've used) and a solid education always goes a long way.
