There really isn't any one source that gives you all the info you are asking. However, I would suggest to deal only with AV rated firms. This rating is the highest attorney honor and is bestowed upon a comparatively small percentage of lawyers and law firms. It is the top rating available for any lawyer or law firm in the United States. The AV rating reflects that an attorney has reached the height of professional excellence, is recognized for the highest levels of skill and integrity, and, generally, has many years' experience in the practice of law. \n\nTwo next best ratings are.\nCV Peer Review Rating — an excellent first Rating and a statement of a lawyer's above average ability and very high ethics.\n\nBV Peer Review Rating — an indication of an exemplary reputation and well-established practice. A typical lawyer is in mid-career, with a significant client base and high professional standing.\n\nBelow is a link to more FAQ's about lawyer ratings and a link to some AV rated lawyers Nationwide by state.\n\nHope this helps,\nJoe  @  www.bailyes.com

many local libraries have old newspapers and articles but the details would probally be at a minumum newspapers usually dont put all the details you could try the police stations or court houses ask if there is a way of getting the police reports usually that costs money though also find out who the lawyer was that had the case most murders always have lawyers and they usually keep the paper work in case details arrise later on a case.

Call the Bar Association in Texas and the ethics committee or equivalent.  If you're looking to weed out a "bad" attorney, good luck.  They usually don't break ranks to tell about each other's pasts if they include problems.

It, of course, depends on your state's caselaw on the subject.  But, yes, it is possible... again depending on your state.  It won't be done unless there is "extraordinary circumstances".  That being said, if it is done, there is one hell of a good chance that, if convicted, the defendant will have a great appeal.  The prosecutor is a VERY interested party. He or she has a stake in the outcome of the case, and may not be that believable.\n\n-ask the bar association in your state-do not take anything said online as legal advice-

Try www.findlaw.com.  It offers online access to cases, codes and practice areas.  It even has subject FAQs that should help find the information that you want, or someone who can provide it on a professional level.

Go online and find the state or federal website with the courts.   Click on "view case history" or "minute entries"....or words similar to these.  Each State is different.  Good Luck

Go to the legal library and look up your charges in the appeals section for your area.  Find a lawyer who took a case like yours and won. Don't wast you time and life in jail by picking a lawyer out of the phone book, he will just take your money.  The clerk at the library will help you.  Good luck, and remember it makes no difference if you did it or not unless you have DNA to prove you didn't.

The best way to search for lawyers is through martindale-hubbell.  Go to http://www.martindale.com and do an advanced search.  Martindale also does "peer review" rankings.  Any ranking is good, but the best rankings are AV and BV.  An AV attorney generally has more experience and has to have been practicing for at least ten years.

Your local bar association can usually hook you up with one.  My late dad was required to do a few probono cases every year, all attorneys should.
